Why does Donald Trump tell such blatant lies? - eviltoast
Politicians sometimes lie because it confuses others and gives them pleasure.

    That’s definitely part of it. But he’s also a pathological liar. He can’t *not* lie. His brain is borked.

    Also he’s a raging narcissist and a sociopath. Which helps.

      I’ve met a pathological liar, I don’t keep up with trump.

      But this person would quite literally like to me about everything and I could never understand why. Even small things like “is tomorrow a holiday?”. he also had a habit of telling people fun facts but no one believed him (and sometimes it was true)

      There’s no way this dude has ever experienced even an ounce of happiness in his entire life.
