Why Trump danced. [View all]
Much has been made of Trump doing his stupid little "dance" after reading off the names of the Uvalde victims. He's een getting a lot of ichly deserved flak about how tacky and tasteless it was, and some have commented that he seemed to be celebrating the deaths. I know it looked that way, but I don't think that's what he was doing.
To celebrate something, you have to care about it, and he doesn't care about those kids one teeny, tiny bit. He's not particularly happy that they died, any more than he's sad about it. He. Simply. Does. NOT. CARE.
To someone that severely narcissistic, everything that ever happens is all about him, always. Other people, even those closest to him, barely exist for him, except as props to be used (if possible), diparaged (if they get in his way) or ignored, in the great, magnificent spectacle that is the life of The! Incredible! Donald! J! Trump!
I'm sure that reading all the names of those slain kids was meaningless to him. It was probably somebody else's idea anyway, and he went along with it, because why not. 
So he did it. And afterwards, he was so pleased with himself that he started doing the little "dance" routine that he does at all of his rallies.
People who thought he was celebrating were right about one thing; he WAS celebrating. But he wasn't celebrating the deaths. He was celebrating himself, because to him, that’s what getting in front of a crowd of people is FOR. He was also bringing the attention of the audience back around him lest they forget who the REAL star of the show was.
I don't understand how anyone can NOT see what a truly vile, despicable, uncaring, narcissistic freak he is. I just don't get it.
