Narcissism

I dont understand the concept behind what narcissism is. While there are other aspects of narcissism such as arrogance that should be classified under this subject, I dont understand why wanting the best for oneself should be considered narcissism. Also, at times I have wild imaginations that I am super rich riding in a yacht somewhere, should this also be considered narcissism as opposed to optimism? Educate me, am just a class seven drop out tending to sheep in Maasai Mara.

An overachiever. Drumpf is definitely not that person.
Am not talking about Trump neither have I watched the video but I think it's the one which he says he knows everything. So if the person who expects the best is an overachiever then why is it that the person who wants the best is a narcissist?

You said that your education fell short. Why are you forcing your own definitions instead of educating yourself?

Read here and KNOW what the word means:

Seems like you have your defination ama you are trolling.....

Narcissist-Personality qualities include thinking very highly of oneself, needing admiration, believing others are inferior and lacking empathy for others.
I dont see why you making it difficult to understand this simple definition.

It's a very thin line.. almost as thin as these two veiled statements:
Obama: Yes we can!
Drumpf: Build the wall!

Maybe the key difference is in selfishness

There nothing like a thin line. A narcissist is a unique phenomenon with a horribly bloated love of self.

Your own 'evidence' contradicts you. 'Yes we can!' implicitly admits that he could not make it on his own. 'Build the wall!' was Drumpf's rallying cry for xenophobes like him, and it sure got some strange critters out of the woodwork.

Maybe it would have been better if another example apart from Trump was used.

You can give it another go. Narcissists are easily recognizable. Even when they do 'good', the objective is to praise themselves.

Sonko Rescue Team is a great example. Look at Sonko: his garish mansion, his boasts of having 1000 title deeds, his displays of gold and his solo Christmas barbecue last year. It is all to glorify Sonko.

@Mzito Jimit si you said that you'd found the ultimate definition in a 'physiology book'? Umerudi? :D

Ha ha ha, immediately you said do good, I thought of Sonko then ironically, it came in the next line. Way to go.
