More than any other in recent history, this presidential election has raised intense scrutiny of both candidates' character to be President of the United States.   Donald Trump has had repeated allegations against him of narcissism and whether his temperament is suitable for the presidency. 

Narcissism demands to be mirrored and refuses to be challenged. It demands acclaim, obedience, and accommodation, while disregarding others. Whether narcissism overtakes the home, the workplace, or the national stage, everyone who comes under Narcissus's spell, both the narcissist and their subjects, suffer. 

Join us on September 29th  as together we look at: 

  • What is Mr. Trump's temperament and is it fair to label it as narcissistic?
  • What is the difference between healthy presidential narcissism and malignant presidential narcissism?
  • What are the unconscious factors drawing the U.S. electorate to a candidate as untraditional as Trump?
  • What deep fears and hidden thoughts in the U.S. have been activated by the campaigns?
