He cannot and will not ever support the TRUTH. On his death bed he will lie and deny that what you see is not happening. At his funeral he will have recording telling you he did not die. He is on a golf course taking time off. Some of you will believe him.
And so it goes. TRUTH is the enemy. TRUTHTELLERS must be destroyed. Gets in the way of the duck bigly. In life and in death.
As a narcissist, he cannot stand to appear weak in any way. For someone to say he’s weak (even if it’s true) will anger him to no end. Even if this man were taking his last breath, he’d use it to swear he was fine. He lies so much that he even lies to himself.
