The Tyrant

The Tyrant

The tyrant shows up in a society that is already weakened by disorder, blind to it, and unable and/or unwilling to take corrective measures that would prevent a tyrannical takeover. Once he and his sycophantic cabal assume power, they deepen and widen the disorder, dismantling and changing the society's norms, institutions, and laws to fully reflect their own pathology. 
(From the chapter, Who Goes Trump? - Tyranny as a Triumph of Narcissism by Elizabeth Mika, M.A., L.C.P.C, in the book The Dangerous Case of Donald Trump by Brandy Lee, p. 313)
