Ellis, one of 18 Trump associates charged in Georgia election subversion case, says she ‘simply can’t support him’ again

Jenna Ellis – the Donald Trump lawyer who like the former president faces criminal charges regarding attempted election subversion in his defeat by Joe Biden in 2020 – says she will not vote for him in the future because he is a “malignant narcissist” who cannot admit mistakes.

“I simply can’t support him for elected office again,” Ellis said. “Why I have chosen to distance is because of that frankly malignant narcissistic tendency to simply say that he’s never done anything wrong.”

Ellis, 38, was speaking on her show on American Family Radio, a rightwing evangelical network run by the American Family Association, a non-profit that by its own description has been “on the frontlines of America’s culture war” since 1977.

    I mean, the whole reason that malignant narcissists are successful is that they’re very good at playing on their victims’ emotions and deceiving. Even someone as trash as Trump, you see this steady stream of new victims both being willing to sacrifice their own social and professional lives on the altar of his ego and being shocked that he won’t comply with contract terms or reciprocate with even a mild inconvenience. Imagine some dude standing next to a hot stove, saying it’s not that hot and offering $100 to put a hand on it. Then when someone burns their hand, denying he ever made the offer.

    Humans are terrible at rational decisions.

      Well, the last guy probably cooled the stove down enough when he grabbed it so it should be fine for me.
