Trump lavishes praise on authoritarian leaders like MBS while they court him with private jets, business deals, and even fast food. The conversation exposes how Trumps foreign policy is driven by personal gain and flattery, not strategyturning diplomacy into a transactional spectacle, which used to not be allowed, but is it now? - 05/13/2025.

(9,506 posts)The psychiatric condition where someone has an intense delusion that they are a king or deserve to be one is typically a type of delusional disorder, more specifically:
Grandiose Delusional Disorder (or Grandiose Type Delusional Disorder)
In this condition, the person has an unshakable belief in their own greatness, power, or importance, often believing they are a famous person, deity, or royalty like a king. Its part of the spectrum of psychotic disorders, and is categorized under Delusional Disorder, Grandiose Type in the DSM-5.
If this belief occurs in the context of mania (such as in Bipolar I Disorder) or schizophrenia, it can also be a grandiose delusion within those broader conditions.
So:
Delusional Disorder, Grandiose Type if its relatively isolated
Schizophrenia or Bipolar Disorder if its part of a larger psychotic or mood episode
