On Grandiosity and Trump

Robert Greene in his book "the laws if human nature" wrote on grandiosity.
Its a complex, that pulls down leaders, their country and followers with them.

When people keep on winning and feel that its their destiny to always win and then begin to make rash actions which clearly will bring them, as they feel that they have a destiny that no human calculation can bring down.

Trump operating on this grandiose nature, operated only on instinct, in business he went and and was successful, in Television, he went in and was successful, he was a bestseller as well, he went into Politics and taking on a coalition of the very very best, he came out successful., even when he was caught in a number of smears and was impeached by house of reps, he still kept his seat and had a chance at reelection.

These things will get into the heads of anybody, if all we do is win, we feel that we are larger than life and that no mortal cab bring us down.
Thus, when Trump saw that it was Biden that he will be up against, he stated it on camera that Sleepy Joe was too dumb to be a contest.

He didn't know that it was not so much about Biden, that it was himself that he was running against, as he alone had the power to make or mar things his drive to his Second tenure.

With 250,000 dead, he still went on to advice his voters to not vote by mail, something that really came out to bite him and to bite him bad, and his legal team was headed by s lawyer that was out of practice for almost 30years, leading him on a streak of loses in courts, amounting to almost 100 loses.

He had the cult followers, people who contributed millions for him to run his case in court, people who would have turned up for him in 2024 to correct the mistakes of having told people to not use the mail in vote, he could have gone back to draw up plans to make it happen, he could have campaigned to ensure that Democrats lost in Georgia, thus loosing control of senate and having a chaotic 4term rule. But then, he worked for the democrats by telling republicans that the election is fraud thereby making them stay back.

And yesterday, all the incitement he had been fanning-up had fruition, and his hard liners took over congress, desecrating the American Democracy in full view of the whole world, and countries like Venezuela now had to tell Americans to allow the will of the people to stand.

Trump has been able to finally unite the whole American people into seeing what that could be at state in supporting an extremist and everyone will now try to work together to forestall this reoccurrence.

In the end, when the worst days in American Democracy is reviewed, it will be the President who incited a Coup on the Constitution and the will of the people that will take centre stage.

If you want to conquer far and conquer wide, get yourself an Aristotle, or teach yourself to know when to stop, so as to consolidate your win and solidify your support base
