Why can’t Donald Trump just admit he was wrong?

[Anonymous]

He keeps on saying it was vandalism after the charges were dismissed with the people who were arrested in connection with the reflecting pool.

A number of reasons. You can find this on any medical information site, so if you're a magat and want to deny Trump exhibits these symptoms, you're wasting everyone's time.

It's a form of anosognosia
Anosognosia is a condition where your brain can’t recognize one or more other health conditions you have. It’s extremely common with mental health conditions like schizophrenia and Alzheimer’s disease. This condition isn’t dangerous on its own, but people with it are much more likely to avoid or resist treatment for their other health conditions. For example, Trump doesn't think he's obese. He doesn't think he has a speech problem. He doesn't believe he has Narcissistic Personality Disorder, and so on.

The inability to admit being wrong can also be linked to other psychological phenomenon rather than a specific mental health diagnosis. This behavior often stems from a fragile ego or low self-esteem, leading individuals to distort reality to protect their self-image, which leads us to Narcissistic Personality Disorder.

Symptom Description: Trump exhibits ALL of these symptoms

Grandiose Sense of Self-Importance: Individuals often exaggerate their achievements and talents, believing they are superior.
Need for Excessive Admiration: A constant craving for attention and validation from others is common.
Lack of Empathy: Difficulty in recognizing or caring about the feelings and needs of others.
Sense of Entitlement: An unreasonable expectation of favorable treatment or compliance with their demands.
Preoccupation with Fantasies: Individuals may be absorbed in fantasies of unlimited success, power, or beauty.
Negative Reaction to Criticism: They usually respond with anger or disdain to perceived slights or criticism.

If a magat, or any other individual were to exhibit ALL of these symptoms and be seen by an expert, this would be your diagnosis. It's a psychological illness and depending on its severity, can lead to physical illnesses.

You might think that American voters could recognize this and not make the same mistake twice, but 77 million of them could not. These are not the characteristics you want in your President, or your Congress, or your appointees, yet that is the current situation in the USA for the most part.

Donald Trump is an overweight man who calls other people fat.

“ Anosognosia is a condition where your brain can’t recognize one or more other health conditions you have.”

That sounds like Donald Trump. He calls other people fat. Does the White House not own any mirrors?

It doesn't matter when no one is willing to tell Emperor Donnie Dementia he's sick.

Donald Trump calls Joe Biden “Sleepy joe.”
I wonder if anybody is telling Trump he has been caught sleeping during the day as well.

He suffers from an extreme case of narcissistic personality disorder

His ego won’t allow it. He started a war with Iran to try and make people forget he is a pedophile.
