This is a great piece, and yeah, I do recognize many of these traits in trump, and a deeply narcissistic woman/roommate that I met in college.
I also wanted to point out that for narcissists ANY attention is good attention! If you're giving them positive attention that's always going to make them feel great, but negative attention can also get them going, since it gives them the opportunity to paint themselves as the victim of a "hater", and indulge in two of their favorite pastimes, grievance collecting, and bragging about how great they are while gaslighting others into believing that, too.
