Narcissists at Play: Who’s Using Who?

February 11, 2025

Elon Musk and Donald Trump—two narcissists locked in a power play. But who holds the upper hand? Kara Swisher posed an interesting question: Who’s the stronger character? Her answer—Musk. He’s using Trump.

Right now, they complement each other. Trump is desperate for money, influence, and relevance. Musk has the money, the platform, and the desire to shape the world to his liking. And let’s be honest—tech billionaires are using the political system to their advantage. Trump, ever the salesman, will go wherever the money flows.

Meanwhile, the rest of us? We’re watching our freedom slip away. What once felt safe no longer does. This isn’t strategy—it’s psychology. Two narcissists, driven by their own narratives, triggered by slights, feeding off each other’s egos.

And the billionaires? They’ll pivot with the wind. It’s never about morals—only the bottom line. But here’s the real question: When the masks fall, do you respect who they truly are? Or are you just chasing the illusion of power and success?
