How crybully Trump and his supporters excel at playing the victim

[ABX]

The expression used to be “everyone’s a critic.” Today, “everyone’s a victim” seems more apt.

Conservatives like to criticize liberal-leaning, historically oppressed demographic groups — such as blacks, women, LGBT people, sexual assault survivors and religious minorities — for demanding moral or financial reparations for insults and injuries both real and perceived. Victimhood status has been used and abused to confer sympathy and moral authority, conservatives complain, as well as sundry undeserved “benefits.”

But in recent years, conservatives have found playing the victimhood card to be equally profitable for their own causes....

The left has always played within the "victim park"...... when the victim card begins to be played you can be certain it's an indication

they are involved in whatever election or organization touting that claim.

In this primary election Trump has played the victim card 'right out of the gate' and it's never ending. ..and in fact it intensifies non-stop

when he knows he's being 'out maneuvered' and has 'lost control of his environment', .......he's 'feeling' intensely both of these at once

 now with Manafort taking over and Cruz's strategic operations dancing circles around him.  He's going to rebel against both because

his deep seated narcissistic personality cannot handle these "emotionally". ......he has never learned the skill set to do so rather he

lashes out and whines  because his primary focus is that of stopping the "feelings" he's having.  Keeping in mind that Narcissists of

 Trumps caliber "feel" emotions 50% if not higher than the average.

Well Trump threw out the 'presidential' thing pushed by Manfort.

I don't know where all the new members are coming from, but obviously not graduates from Trump University. That is a well thought-out and well written post.    And Welcome.
