… Mr. Trump’s mood is often sullen and erratic, his associates say. He veers from barking at members of his staff to grumbling about how he was better off following his own instincts during the primaries and suggesting he should not have heeded their calls for change.
He broods about his souring relationship with the news media…
[Associates also] described their nominee as exhausted, frustrated and still bewildered by fine points of the political process and why his incendiary approach seems to be sputtering.
He is routinely preoccupied with perceived slights…
[Trump is still] relying impulsively on a pugilistic formula that guided him to the nomination…

I’m going to break with my usual clinical stance against diagnosing people I haven’t met with and call it, he’s definitely a textbook asshole.

hey ya know extreme times call for extreme measures, I’m puzzled by the presses inability to recognize Trumps type (now David Brooks is rambling about manic flights of thought) as they are so common, do they really not know any insecure chip on their shoulder bullies who can’t do their own work and ride the efforts of hangers-on until someone starts to do the math and the wheels come off?
