False Advertising - NOT an FBI Profile of Donald Trump
Title says "An FBI Profile of Donald Trump" but right on page 1 it states "Please note that this does not come from the FBI, it is merely in the style of an FBI behavioral analysis."...The author is not an FBI agent, consultant, and is not currently affiliated with the FBI in any way. Dr. Decker is merely a per name."To Amazon's credit, they allowed this book to be credited as Returned without requiring that it be physically returned. To their debit, however, they allowed it to included in their listings without performing any quality control on its contents.My take-away is two-fold: 1) This book's author lies before you even open the cover, so it carries no reliability. 2) We now have to double-check the accuracy of title, subtitle, author(s), and citations of any non-fiction book, e-book, and audio-book presented in an Amazon listing. To me this is the truly surprising and disappointing part.

Short, clear analysis & prediction of Trump Presidency
This book is succinct, accurate, factual and non-political. I'm familiar with the medical definition of a narcissist and I think this book explains it well to those who don't know much about narcissistic behavior. This book leaves no room for doubt that Trump is a narcissistic; if you're looking for a book that debates details or quibbles on the main issue (whether Trump actually fits the definition of a narcissist), this book isn't for you.However, if you want to understand what a narcissist is, what's wrong with Mr. Trump, &/or what to expect from his unconventional, chaotic, and concerning presidency, it's worth a read.The info is organized. First, it describes narcissistic traits and motivations. Second, it lists general behaviours that narcissists exhibit. Third, and last, it uses the aforementioned narcissistic traits & Mr. Trump's past behavior to predict Mr. Trump's actions during his presidency.Bottom line: Recommend if you want a fast, easy to read, clear, concise, accurate explanation, analysis & prediction of our current POTUS's narcissism and how it will affect his presidency.

Interesting, and chillingly coming true.
Short and to the factual point. Most of the things have already come to pass. I just pray he is correct in his conclusion that Trump WILL NOT be reelected, or better yet, impeached. Along with the whole lot of them, including the vice president. Now that would be draining the swamp.....

Intelligent. Helpful. Thoughtful. Frightening.
This is not really a book, but is instead a brief paper that delves into the properties of the behavioral disorder of narcissism, and then applies it to president Donald Trump.This document was created by someone not affiliated with the FBI or the department of justice but who is very familiar with the processes used to create a profile of someone within the bureau. If in fact this paper was created the day before president Trump‘s inauguration, as is claimed, it is nothing short of miraculous. But what is most important is that this is a document that lets us understand narcissism and how it affects the people who are inflicted and how very dangerous it is for those people who are controlled by a narcissist. I do not regret having spent the paltry amount of money on this as President Trump is not the only narcissist in my life. And just because it’s a 30 minute read, even moving carefully, does not under value the quality in the content.The author has used a pseudonym choosing to remain anonymous. This too is a very telling element of how we should protect ourselves when affected by someone who is afflicted with narcissism. All in all this was a great little book. And it is, indeed, little. It makes Strunk & White’s “elements of style“ look like a full sized reference book.Go ahead. Do it.

Lacks scientific/psychological validity- save your money
Despite claiming knowledge of FBI Behavioral Analysis understanding, the author progresses from a faulty premise at the start. Narcissistic personality disorder and antisocial personality disorder (psychopaths) share some common denominators but are two distinct disorders and cannot be combined into one.His “predictions” are drawn from Trumps own political campaign and the only surprise is that Trump is actually doing what he promised.There’s nothing informative or new. Don’t waste your time or money.

Thought Provoking
This is a summary on the method of profiling the FBI uses in capturing criminals. In it's conclusion the author applies this method in predicting Trump's actions during his presidency. As of my writing this review the author is spot on.

not what you may think. It has nothing to ...
not what you may think. It has nothing to do with the FBI. The writer is not a profiler, and he states that on the first page. BUT with that said if you want to make a point about the president this is very interesting. And in my opinion very true.

It's a good piece for the general public and aspects are already right on point.
This is a very brief description of a class of thought disorder with an example of how people manifest their disease across the broad spectrum of the disorder. Completed on January 19, 2017, the author describes how a thought disorder might manifest itself in Trump's public and private world as he assumes the post of the president of the United States.As an attorney with a fairly constant exposure to people with thought disorders in my clients, or in the defendants, the author's outline reads as though it was the executive summary and predicate to the trial expert's report.Alas, the time has not come for the rest of the analyses. This summary is an excellent introduction for the lay public and I urge anybody who has the slightest interest in our president's odd behavior to spend a buck, read the substance, and make a note to reread this summary at least every six months. The accuracy of these predictions will be easily confirmed.

Very short
It is quite scary how the predictions in this very short “book” turned out to be true. It makes you wonder how such a clown was even allowed to enter the presidential race.

Short but Interesting
This is a small book - under 25 pages - but is an interesting read. The author describes the four principal personality types that are likely to cause difficulties in life - Narcissist, Predator, Emotionally Unstable and Paranoid. He then discusses Trump which he puts in the first category.

I am disappointed with this
I am disappointed with this. Copy and paste comes to mind! The writer is using a series of open, yes open opinions, and giving you the option to make your own mind up. Talk about playing safe. I regret playing Euros for this when I could have picked it up on open news media anywhere.

Not sure
Quite repetitive without much substance. Thought it would be a bit more detailed as to why the author believes Trump is and why he got elected.
