Narcissist

Trump "is often incapable of acting other than in his perceived self-interest, or for revenge," former lawyer Ty Cobb told CBS News' Major Garrett.

I think we're on a downward spiral and the safety net of leadership that we need is nowhere on the horizon." "I think it is so tragic," Cobb said. "My personal view is that it's less a character issue than a personality defect," Cobb said. "I think the president is in serious legal water not so much because of the search, but because of the obstructive activity he took in connection with the January 6 proceeding and the attempts to interfere in the election count," Cobb echoed in his interview with CBS News. I think those are the two compelling instincts that guide his actions." President Donald Trump's former White House lawyer Ty Cobb called the ex-president "a deeply wounded narcissist" who is "incapable" of acting out of anything other than self-interest

A former White House official blamed Donald Trump's personality trait as the reason behind his unwillingness to accept the results of the 2020 presidential ...

The former president is now under the DoJ scanner over thousands of documents, Cobb also said Trump’s three hours of inaction and his abetment of the Jan. “I think interfering with what the vice president was obligated to do, trying to persuade him in a very aggressive effort not to certify the election, and to send certain electors back, I think that was criminal,” he said. Cobb was also critical of Trump denying that he lost to President Joe Biden after the 2020 election, and also his pressure on the then-Vice President Mike Pence for not certifying slates of electors from individual states. This was in violation of Article III of the Constitution, and a joint declaration by both chambers of Congress could block Trump from being able to “regain the White House,” he added. He was responding to the host’s question about whether Trump’s refusal to admit the 2020 election defeat is due to a defect in his character.
