Is Donald Trump a clinical narcissist? Does he have a personality disorder? Is it ethical for mental health professionals to publicly diagnosis him without conducting an official assessment? GROUP tackles these questions and more with help from narcissism expert Professor Keith Campbell of the University of Georgia. We also hear from diagnosed narcissist and psychopath Sam Vaknin, author of "Malignant Self Love: Narcissism Revisited."

Here's a link to the Narcissistic Personality Inventory. Rebecca and Catherine both scored 11. Maybe they should work on their self-esteem and confidence levels? Ian scored a 16. He is self-admittedly a little grandiose. The national average is 15.5. Reality television stars average 19.5. United States presidents average around 22.
