Quora: Is Rashida Tlaib an unsavory narcissist and attention addict, not to mention antagonistic?

 Originally Answered: Is Rashida Tlaib an unsavory narcissist and attention addict?

Probably no more than any other politician or public figure. As an introvert, I generally tend to think anyone who wants to be around crowds of people or speak in front of crowds is probably a little bit damaged in some way.

I could say the same about performers, musicians or actors, as well. They want or need the attention and approval of groups of people in order to feel good about themselves. Nothing terrible about that as long as you are honest about it and don’t abuse or mistreat people.

I think that in order to answer this question, we would need to determine if she feels she needs the crowds and attention, or does she just accept crowds and attention as part of the job she wants to do?

As far as I can tell. Tlaib’s ideas of the function of government are in alignment with my own and she generally seems to want to make life better for her constituents so that’s better than a lot of narcissistic public figures who are only in it for their own gains and sucking up to  their wealthy donors.

Is there such a thing as a 'savory narcissist'? I think maybe she’s that. LOL.
