Just to confirm that Fox is the state broadcaster/propaganda arm of Trump Organisation
The video Trump aired during the coronavirus task force briefing is directly from the March 26 episode of Hannity pic.twitter.com/m3mvZFu0CT

Trump also lied and said his team had put it together in a few hours that morning. Or his team had lied to him.
I think to a point. The opinion part of Fox News, Hannity, Dobbs, Ingraham, Pirro will continue to salivate over him and him them. The News part is more nuanced. It is still weighted in his direction but more and more you see them calling Trump out and him getting pissy with them because he sees the channel as his News arm.

Narcissistic Personality Disorder (from Wiki):
People with narcissistic personality disorder (NPD) are characterized by the personality traits of persistent grandiosity, an excessive need for admiration, and a personal disdain and lack of empathy for other people.
As such, the person with NPD usually displays arrogance and a distorted sense of personal superiority, and seeks to establish abusive power and control over others.
Self-confidence (a strong sense of self) is a personality trait different from the traits of narcissistic personality disorder; thus, people with NPD typically value themselves over others, to the extent of openly disregarding the wishes and feelings of anyone else, and expect to be treated as superior, regardless of their actual status or achievements.
Socially, the person with narcissistic personality disorder usually exhibits a fragile ego (self-concept), intolerance of criticism, and a tendency to belittle other people, in order to validate his or her own superiority.
The Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, Fifth Edition (DSM-5, 2013) indicates that a person with NPD possesses at least five of the following nine criteria, typically without possessing the commensurate personal qualities or accomplishments for which they demand respect and status:
*Grandiosity with expectations of superior treatment from other people
*Continually demeaning, bullying and belittling others
*Exploiting others to achieve personal gain
*Lack of empathy for the negative impact they have on the feelings, wishes, and needs of other people
*Fixation on fantasies of power, success, intelligence, attractiveness, etc.
*Self-perception of being unique, superior, and associated with high-status people and institutions
*Need for continual admiration from others
*Sense of entitlement to special treatment and to obedience from others
*Intense envy of others, and the belief that others are equally envious of them

'Treatments for narcissistic personality disorder have not been well studied. Therapy is difficult, because people with narcissistic personality disorder usually do not consider themselves to have a mental health problem'
Mrs R just reminded me of this with her post:

I didn't say it was wrong for you to try and calm him down.
I said there was a reasonable correlation between him having these mood swings (If it was Donald Trump, Heisenburg would characterise it as the move from a perception of being unique, superior, and associated with high-status people and institutions to continually demeaning, bullying and belittling others - obviously not relevant in this case) and you coming along to help put the toys back in the pram.
Still I apologised for that insinuation so let's move on!
