15. To me he epitomizes the Ugly American

No matter what decade. He's the typical blowhard, blustering, swaggering, ignorant, self centered, entitled Ugly American. In this country or in any other country. I always knew he was a Narcissist, but now I'm beginning to think he's a Malignant Narcissist. A man who would for real use torture and death to get what he wants. He just seems to always be chomping at the bit to hurt people.


And yesterday in Mexico he wasn't being diplomatic. To me he looked cowed and out of his element when facing the people of that country, and he made up for it in spades with his speech last night. Roaring his way through his 10 immigration points, probably hoping no one noticed his meekness in Mexico while going way overboard with the testosterone just to cover up his earlier choke.
