A friend recently told me that a colleague of hers had said that a certain well-known person (not Trump) was a "subtle narcissist," and therefore, more dangerous. I texted her back and said that I didn't think her colleague knew what she was talking about because as far as I was concerned (I am an educational neuropsychologist so, not as well schooled in clinical), there was no such thing. Then I got to thinking and wondered what others who were well versed, either educationally or personally, about narcissism would have to say about this. To me, subtlety is far from the repertoire of behaviors of a narcissist. I'd appreciate hearing what you might have to say about this.
