My argument here is that you allow people who are narcissists to provide you the news every day

Bold claim, given that you don't know where I get my news from.

if his narcissism was an issue, then it would have been mentioned as one by the doctor.

What makes you say that? This was a physical, not a psychological assessment. Hell, when asked point blank if a psychological assessment was part of the planned physical, the White House flat-out said that it wasn't.

Moreover, even were that not the case, Trump has the right to ask the doctor not to release anything that he doesn't want released, regardless of the reason. If there were any major health risks, you can bet that they would be kept under wraps, if for no other reason than Trump's pride.

Honestly, this "physical" was about 20% actual medical evaluation and 80% political showmanship.

I am honestly wondering how much of his "narcissism" is an act and how much of it is real.

Unless he was a hell of an actor when he was a child, I'd say almost none of it - stories from some of his friends back from his childhood point to pretty much the same patterns of behaviour he's displayed all his life.

And, quite frankly, even if it was 100% an act, Trump lives "the act" to the point where it ultimately makes zero difference.
