Obama’s tragic admission: He’s learned nothing as president
NY Post ^ | 10/4/2016 | Michael Goodwin

Posted on 10/05/2016 2:26:54 PM PDT by bkopto

News flash: President Obama didn’t learn anything in eight years in the White House. And he’s proud of it.

As Obama admitted in an interview with New York magazine: “If you go back and you read speeches I made when I was running for the US Senate in 2003, or if you go back further and you look at statements I made when I was on the Harvard Law Review, my worldview is pretty consistent.”

The comment was a point of pride, which makes it doubly tragic. Once the smartest man in the room, always the smartest man in the room.

Never mind that the world is on fire, that America is polarized, angry and scared. Or that ObamaCare is a sick patient, that the economy is growing at a snail’s pace and that many cities are racial war zones.

It’s not Obama’s fault. None of it. He would do it all again.

It’s hard to learn anything when your head is constantly upside down. Kissing your own azz.

He learned nothing before coming president either.

No, he’s learned that the country wasn’t ready for him, isn’t good enough for him, and doesn’t deserve him. His worldview has stayed consistent. The hell with ours.

A classic narcissist way of thinking. The narcissist is perfect, it’s everyone else that has problems.

malignant narcissist:
Kernberg described malignant narcissism as a syndrome characterized by a narcissistic personality disorder (NPD), antisocial features, paranoid traits, and egosyntonic aggression. Other symptoms may include an absence of conscience, a psychological need for power, and a sense of importance (grandiosity). Pollock wrote: “The malignant narcissist is presented as pathologically grandiose, lacking in conscience and behavioral regulation with characteristic demonstrations of joyful cruelty and sadism”.[7]

Kernberg believed that malignant narcissism should be considered part of a spectrum of pathological narcissism, which he saw as ranging from Cleckley’s antisocial character (today’s psychopath or antisocial personality) at the high end of severity, through malignant narcissism, and then to narcissistic personality disorder at the low end.[8] The malignant narcissist thus represents a less extreme form of pathological narcissism than psychopathy. Malignant narcissism can be distinguished from psychopathy, according to Kernberg, because of the malignant narcissist’s capacity to internalize “both aggressive and idealized superego precursors, leading to the idealization of the aggressive, sadistic features of the pathological grandiose self of these patients”. According to Kernberg, the psychopath’s paranoid stance against external influences makes him or her unwilling to internalize even the values of the “aggressor”, while malignant narcissists “have the capacity to admire powerful people, and can depend on sadistic and powerful but reliable parental images”. Malignant narcissists, in contrast to psychopaths, are also said to be capable of developing “some identification with other powerful idealized figures as part of a cohesive ‘gang’...which permits at least some loyalty and good object relations to be internalized”. “Some of them may present rationalized antisocial behavior - for example, as leaders of sadistic gangs or terrorist groups...with the capacity for loyalty to their own comrades”.[9]

Sometimes what is not said is significant:

said: "look at statements I made when I was on the Harvard Law Review"

Not said: "look at pieces I wrote when I was on the Harvard Law Review"

Of course not. He already knew everything.

Of course, nobody would let George W Bush get away with a remark like that.

How do you expect a fool to learn anything? He wasn't elected because he was competent, he was elected because he was the color that gave the "media" orgasms.

Dump a billion dollars worth of interference running and free advertising into an incompetent's campaign, and odds are he will win.
