They never will unless they distant them self... We have a hubristic POTUS.
Hubris and the danger of leaders with extreme self-regard. Another one rises?
On the other side of the Atlantic, it is easy to see how the potential hazards of extreme self-regard could be playing out in the US. The billionaire businessman and president-elect, Donald Trump, already displayed palpable signs of hubris in the speech in which he declared his intention to seek nomination in June 2016. In it he uttered a total of 257 references to himself (compared to a mere seven mentions of “America” or “American”) including: “I’m really rich”, “I’m proud of my net worth”, “I’ve done an amazing job”, “I beat China all the time — all the time”, “Rebuild the country’s infrastructure? Nobody can do that like me”, and so on. https://theconversation.com/hubris-and-the-danger-of-leaders-with-extreme-self-regard-71548
