Turns out Kellyanne Conway's granddad was the late James DiNatale, better known as Jimmy “The Brute” DiNatale, an alleged mob associate. (His gray granite headstone in Hammonton’s Oak Grove Cemetery even includes his nickname – THE BRUTE – in all caps.) https://www.phillyvoice.com/kellyanne-conways-life-story-omits-her-grandfather-an-alleged-mob-associate/
I wonder if he was a psychopath? It's not too far fetched, given he was a mob associate, enforcer type known as THE BRUTE who helped facilitate the bloody rampage of Philadelphia crime boss Nicodemo "Little Nicky" Scarfo in the early 1980s, according to law enforcement officials.
James Fallon is a neuroscientist who accidentally discovered he's a psychopath. In "The Psychopath Inside," he calls himself a "pro-social" psychopath & relates his family tree, where he finds several shady characters going back several generations; psychopathy is hereditary.
What about Kellyanne? Why does she lie so easily? What about Trump? His father enriched himself by defrauding the US government. His grandfather made his money off of prostitution. And Manafort? His father was indicted in a corruption scandal in 1981 but not convicted. Etc. etc.
Fallon has shown that brain scans can identify psychopaths. I think ALL politicians, Democrats & Republicans, should submit to brain scans & make the results public. Let them run for office, but I think we have right to know if we're voting for psychopaths.
Adding to this thread of over a year ago a piece on #Manafort's son-in-law:
"Yohai “has shown an almost unbelievable compulsion to defraud others, to the point that he could not stop even while awaiting this court’s judgment on him in the first case...” https://www.politico.com/news/2019/11/08/yohai-manafort-sentenced-068279
"Worse, he seems to enjoy committing fraud and revels in cheating others out of their hard-earned money, as though he thought real work was only for patsies,” Assistant U.S. Attorney Andrew Brown added.
Sounds like another psychopath to me! Why is this relevant?
Well, because of family dynamics. One of the things that makes us human & creates attachments is our vast network of mirror neurons. These cause us to literally imprint on our parents. Later in life, we often marry people who reflect back to us our parents & recreate our family.
So, #Manafort's daughter marrying a compulsive conman who "seems to enjoy committing fraud & revels in cheating others" makes total sense when you remember that her father is also a serial fraudster who enjoys cheating others, among other things! https://spectator.us/mom-tested-stds-manaforts-home-life/
