WASHINGTON, Sept 27 (Reuters) - Former U.S. President Donald Trump, who is the Republican presidential candidate, said on Friday he will seek the prosecution of Google if he wins the Nov. 5 election, claiming that the company only displays “bad stories” about him.

Trump, in his post on Truth Social, gave no evidence for his assertion about Google.

“It has been determined that Google has illegally used a system of only revealing and displaying bad stories about Donald J. Trump, some made up for this purpose while, at the same time, only revealing good stories about” Democratic presidential candidate Kamala Harris, Trump said.

    Look. This is how Cluster B personality disorders work. And how utterly exhausting they are. Notably, borderline personality disorder and narcissistic personality disorder. We all know Trump is the latter even if he isn’t officially diagnosed.

    .

    Anyone who has ever been in a relationship with Cluster B, be it familial, friendship, or romantic knows this is true about trump. And has probably been screaming on the inside, due to additional exposure, for 8 yrs.

    .

    What’s killer about this guy and his Cluster B is the press. The mains like NYT, NBC, etc, not fringe stuff like new republic and others that we often post to lemmy and Reddit, don’t just say it outright. Don’t just say there’s something mentally off with all he says and does. We should have had a blasted wall, a boundary set against this level of delusion, but instead we’ve had nearly a decade of “let’s explore this”, leading us down the lane of what is, yes, the perceptions of untreated mental illness. That’s what a Cluster B personality disorder is: untreated mental illness. Not the lock you up kind (barring a BPD trip down SA/SI, which is a hallmark of that disorder, but that’s off topic for a Trump discussion). The press isn’t reporting misinformation, but they have enabled his mental illness and pulled us all into an unwelcome relationship with it by never placing healthy boundaries on it. It’s like they wanted a society of Cluster B co-dependents. They have helped create this exhausting reality via their own codependency.

    .

    And it’s fucking exhausting.

    .

    So what we have is this exhausting, societal level gaslight that feeds into a Cluster B personality disorder’s reality, instead of reality. This statement about Google? “Normal” for Cluster B. Utterly expected and within the operating procedures of Cluster B.

    .

    Typically, a person finding themselves in a relationship with one of these nightmare personality disorders goes no contact to get healthy again. They have to. It’s the only way. For a decade we haven’t been allowed to go no contact.

    .

    I’ll conclude by saying the obvious. If you’d finally like to go no contact on this Cluster B relationship, vote for Kamala Harris.

      I’ve known and agreed about Trump’s obvious clinical narcissism, but I needed to hear this last piece: the ineptitude and culpability of the media in not just facilitating it, but actively contributing to what in any other circumstance would be systematic abuse. It’s so messed up that they are exposing us to, and amplifying, his mental illness without any self-reflection or caution.

      For reference, I also had a relationship with someone with BPD. I had to go no-contact after she took a bottle of pills, and then tried to time a call to me so she could die on the phone while I was powerless to stop it. (The ambulance got there in time.) It wasn’t until months later that I realized just how exhausted I had been, and how much it was harming me. Feels familiar.

      Here you go, everyone:

      https://www.psychologytoday.com/us/basics/cluster-b

      https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Personality_disorder

      I’d post a summary, though with these it is often best to go a little more in-depth than some tldr on the subject. Long story short, Trump represents Narcissism and Histrionic, maybe BPD. I’ll be honest, I’ve kept my distance from watching him. Someone else with more screen time, or more knowledge, feel free to chime in with corrections.
