It's quite the thing when the Financial Times repeats the Trumpian lie that countries pay tariffs on exports.

An interesting article from The Conversation so non-political and written by people qualified in the subjects discussed. A lot more to the article than the excerpt below (excerpt intended only to indicate the spirit of the article)
Why Trump blames decisions on others – a psychologist explains
People with high levels of narcissism (“I like to be the centre of attention”; “I am an extraordinary person” – both items on the narcissism personality inventory, a method of measuring personalities) often avoid accountability because they perceive themselves as superior to others. But only, it should be noted, in certain “key” aspects of life.

In the words of Jean Twenge and W. Keith Campbell, authors of The Narcissism Epidemic: “Narcissists think that they are smarter, better looking and more important than others, but not necessarily more moral, more caring or more compassionate.”

Narcissistic individuals tend to externalise blame to protect their fragile self-esteem and maintain their self-image. They may refuse to admit fault because doing so threatens their grandiose concept of self.
