| second: Famous people and public figures often discussed in analyses as exhibiting Dark Triad traits—narcissism, Machiavellianism, and psychopathy—include figures like Elon Musk, Donald Trump, and historical figures such as Stalin, Hitler, and Saddam Hussein. |
| second: Some of the suffering that has filled human history since the beginning of the 20th century has been caused by psychologically disordered dark triad leaders. Before the 20th century, inheritance-based systems of power restricted access to leadership roles. But once these social structures broke down — and particularly if they weren’t replaced by democratic systems — the most brutal and amoral individuals tended to rise to the most powerful positions. Some examples may include Stalin, Hitler, Mao Zedong, Mussolini, General Franco (of Spain) Pol Pot (of Cambodia), Saddam Hussein and Colonel Gaddafi. Towards the end of the twentieth century, most of Africa and South America was ruled by ruthless, amoral dictators who inflicted massive amounts of suffering on their own people. [go to link] |

| second: Urgent Warning to Congressional Leaders: Trump is Psychologically Unstable and Dangerous. President Trump exhibits what forensic mental health experts have, across dozens of independent assessments, identified as the “Dark Triad” of personality traits: narcissism, Machiavellianism, and psychopathy. What makes this more than an academic matter is what predictably happens when this personality structure collides with immovable obstacles. The clinical literature is clear: individuals with Dark Triad profiles, when confronted with situations they cannot control or escape, do not recalibrate. They escalate. We are watching this dynamic unfold in real time. The President’s recent public communications have been, by any normal standard of political discourse, alarming. A President who shows every behavioral sign of a personality in acute crisis is not merely a political problem. He is a constitutional emergency. [go to link] |

| second: America’s Orange Jesus. Reflections on a week in which Donald Trump decided to feud with the Pope while comparing himself to the Saviour. The point is simply this: in Trump 1.0, Orange Jesus was a snarky shorthand for the hypocrisy of Republicans who knew better but joined up with the cult of Trump anyway. In Trump 2.0, Trump thinks he has actually become Orange Jesus.

He blew up the global trading order with tariffs and then with a mined, drone-swept, and now blockaded Strait of Hormuz. He picked a fight with the pope (an American pope!) and then posted an image that suggests he sees himself as a rival to the Godhead.
