Floating Along

Best thing I've read so far today. Ron Reagan, responding to Chris Matthews, discussing Donnie Stink Eye's ego issues:

"The tiny little hand there," Ron Reagan said. "You know, why not? Well, he is a narcissist, of course. And all of this is a defensive strategy for the narcissist. He doesn't really think all these things inside. He tries to convince himself of them, but let's remember. It's worth remembering, I think, he didn't really want to be president, and he didn't prepare to be president. It was all a big infomercial for him, and now it's kind of a reality show. 

"He's obsessed with ratings and things like that, but he doesn't actually engage with the idea of being the president of the United States. Not interested in learning anything in particular. And so he just sort of floats along day to day in this stew of chaos that he creates."
