Several years ago, an analysis of the TV character Tony Soprano was conducted, highlighting his antisocial traits such as dominance, aggression, manipulation, and exploitation, which were essential for controlling his criminal empire. Tony’s behaviors aligned with narcissistic personality disorder (NPD), marked by entitlement and self-promotion, while his emotional intelligence was limited, showing impulsiveness and emotional exploitation. Tony’s leadership style involved deception and the projection of strength, reflecting Machiavellianism to gain personal advantage. Additionally, Tony's behavior exhibited paranoia, resulting in suspicion, rage, envy, and revenge. This analysis raised a question: Is Trump's behavior a calculated act for his followers, or is it authentic? If it is an act, what influences people to perceive such traits as presidential, and why does this perspective exist?
