Being Eastern European myself I can kind of understand her. She left communism for a better life....and she did rather well for herself. Better than most.
Valeria, she was a smart mail order bride. its tons of eastern european that are trying the same thing to move to either canada, the US or germany those are the key nations they emigrate to ( besides the UK of course )
Same here. My parents along with me, at 4 yrs old, defected from the USSR. The strength, preservence and courage that they had from the moment they made that choice to leave to this very day is something not many people possess. They continue to work towards success and happiness and quite literally live their best lives (not like an IG pic of a pretty cappuccino... I'm talking about the real thing) They are kind humble and don't take anything for granted even 32 years later. It's easy to judge others especially when they are in the spotlight, but imo when you experience a life with day to day oppression and are finally freed, there is no shame in aiming as high as you can.
I love those little 'funnies' that you stick in your monologue without warning. I also like that, while highly amusing, they are not so subtle that they are beyond my limited sophistication. Thanks.

I love your videos, Dr. Grande. You’re a great speaker; very matter of fact, with a blend of sophistication and the ability to reach the layperson. It’s always a pleasure to listen to you share your knowledge and your take on things. Keep up the awesome work.
You hit the nail on the head with Ivana having been an athlete and physical educator not wanting to admit physical defeat. As a soldier, your body is EVERYTHING. If it doesn't work, you're NOTHING. They say they leave no one behind. It's not True, physical maladies in another person is terrifying because you're afraid it will happen to you. And you'd rather DIE than not be 100% sound physically.
It seems the not-admitting-defeat attitude is an attribute aqcuired by trauma. My mom and aunt were twin sisters, their childhood was really harsh. Especially my aunt would shame others who needed medical attention, or help of any kind. She died because of her untreated health problems, she continuously refused help. The soldier analogy is great. She had to be like a soldier growing up in a dirt poor, overly religous family. She broke all the rules and ended up leaving the country to live life the way she wanted to. Worked for all her money and wouldn't accept defeat of any kind. But the lack of self-care in the end is what caused her multiple organ system failure at 67. That's trauma for sure.
I saw the first part of the title and thought, "uh oh he's talking about my romantic relationships" 😄 My narcissistic exes were all dirt poor though. Ivana did at least get wealth along with trauma.
ANEN!! I met TWO. One was poor ( I had to give him $ 200.00 for his water Bill 💵); and, the other was worth close to $ 25 Million. It is a lot better to put up with nonsense when the INDIVIDUAL is Wealthy 🤑🤑💰🤑.

Item #6 stuck in my mind forever. Dr. Grande: “When two individuals with narcissistic characteristics are married, they teach each other bad habits.” 😂 In other words, two wrongs don’t make one right. I love that statement! 👏
If you haven't noticed, check out the facial expression of Dr. G. when he says, "only speculating..." it is the ultimate non-verbal disclaimer. I really love his subtle (and obvious) humor and asides.

I love your channel, Dr. G! Your voice is so soothing and it's part of my night time routine to listen to your content. If I fall asleep, I go back and replay your videos. I get a kick out of your little "digs" - you are very skilled at keeping your voice and face deadpan and could easily be missed if not familiar with your personality and style. 🥰
Sad story. I think we sometimes confuse narcissism for stubbornness and denial of age or ailments. I know my mom is very much like this….she’s just stubborn and keeps going like an energizer bunny despite pain from age and surgeries.
100%. We might not agree with elderly's reasoning...but we need to be careful we do not fall into "AGEISM". Treating them as children or unable is something many elderly resent. Many become stubborn BECAUSE they feel they are less valued or a burden. Many times the last thing they have is control of their body and home. Now that I am retired as a RN...last thing I want is some whippersnapper telling me what I should do medically or safety wise even if I know it is unsafe to climb a ladder to fix a gutter. When you can't do it...then you simply can't do it. Just sayin...offer help but let them make the decisions as long as your able to. IF a family member says don't call 911 and let them die...tell them maybe they won't die and you don't want to go to jail for elder abuse. Then leave them to think about it. WORKS.
@@tanyabriggs8969 Yeah funny you Mention this ….I am literally texting back and forth with my brother about our game plan for mom as he body is falling apart but she’s Sharp as a tack. Unfortunately our siblings that live near her are worthless so I’m probably going to bring her to my place in Georgia Where I’m prepared for many More years of this great reset crap. I’ve been prepping since I was 21y/O and now I’m 51.
@@tanyabriggs8969 I'm a retired RN who cared for my Mom for 6+ years in her home. It was handicap accessible and she spent 4 years on her own, though I lived within a mile and came to check on her often and called frequently. She loved her independence! She had a old motorized wheelchair and watered her plants. We have arthritis in the family and she knew her limitations. She didn't drive anymore and I did grocery runs and we'd do meals together. I was working at night away from home 83 miles round trip. We'd chat on the phone on my way home! Fortunately Mom never had any broken bones. She was a very intelligent woman and I was with her till the end. It doesn't work out for every one, empathy was on my side. Tanya Briggs, I enjoyed all your comments!
Gotta tell you, Dr. Todd, I'm loving your wry wit & dryly humorous remarks in some of your more recent vids! Sometimes they catch me off guard, but they do make me lol.😆 All the best!
I really liked Ivana. She had a warm, open hearted personality and was very intelligent. I think Dr. Grande nailed it about her athletic history being the reason she would not accept physical limitations. Rest In Peace, gallant lady.
Your sly comic relief is why I still watch you. I found you while researching Narcissistic Personality Disorder but stayed for your interesting topics, witty humor, as well as your professional opinion. Thank you Dr. Grande. 👏😊
The hardest working man on TH-cam!!! Hands down the most content pumped out with zero devaluation. Quantity AND quality!!! Edit: two or three projects a day and we ain’t seen the same shirt twice 🤣❤️
One thing that I do respect about her, is that she took steps to get away from the country. Plus, she's always been smart about her businesses. She was every bit Trump's equal. Not surprised that the marriage to the younger man. She should've learned that from her ex husband.
She alone raised the three children and that after she divorced the Donald she had successful businesses and made tons of QVC millions. She was actually more of a successful business person than DT. She also negotiated the use of Mar a lago for one month a year in her divorce settlement which is probably why she was comfortable having her wedding there.
@@poodlegirl55 unbelievable. I was trying to move to that cow town in NJ the taxes was too high. I move to Florida. Lord I didn't know he would come here too
This is one of the best videos yet that you've done. On so many levels, I think you captured the essence of a narcissistic relationship, the long term consequences, the danger of actually appropriating narcissistic characteristics (or having them in the first place) and the dynamics of the family and spouses afterward. Love it, love your humor!! Thanks, Dr. Grande.
I read in the comments here that he has done that before, but I've not seen it if such a video exists. I'm not sure what search term to use either to find it.
@@g3synth205 yes he has. He did his famous OCEAN analysis on himself :) unfortunately I don't remember the title of the video. Might be one of his special episodes he did whenever he reached a 100k + subscribers mark.
YES, Dr. Grande needs to go back to class and sit and critique himself...as well as let the other students do the same. We all have to do it early on...but think he should do so again IMHO. WHY did he find the need to do this video so soon after Ivana's death...and shortly after the Trump Mar a lago raid that he mentioned? I can think of 1 reason. A need to capitalize on the headlines...be damn the children and grandchild that will likely get this video sent to them during their mourning. DR. should have waited a long time IF EVER...to make this video public. Shame on all praising him for this bad professional manner.
@@tanyabriggs8969 That’s not what I had in mind at all but you made some valid points. I knew nothing about Ivana prior to this video except that she was married to Donald. Dr. Grande does critique people who are currently in the news otherwise people simply move on to the next crisis.
She was alone and lonely. She let a gigolo take advantage of her. She got co-dependent with him, and when he died, her purpose for living died also. She was blind to who he really was to her.
Are you saying she was not smart enough to know what she was doing when she married the giggalo? Was took advantage of. I Don't buy that ! Women are as smart and cunning as any man.
My mother navigated her staircase until she died at 93, despite having some sort of stiffness in her leg. It was good for her. I don't think wanting to incorporate exercise into your daily life, at any age, is 'narcissistic', and climbing stairs is a GREAT way to do that. I actually think it's a good idea. Use it or loose it. Having said that, accidents can happen to anyone at any time.
So sad. Her children tried to give her an alert device but she didn’t want to wear it. They were the ones who were truly looking out for her. Her 2nd husband/ boy toy certainly wasn’t.
her kids could have moved closer , they have ample means. a cow bell ring is disrespectful and frankly she should have downscaled a decade ago. too many injuries as we get older , big ass apartments are a health hazard
@@PHlophe no that's not disrespectful. Even if your kids live with you, you can still fall and get hurt. Oh smart watches are great alternative. My friend's mom wears one and she fell while he was at work. He send help to her.
In her first autobiography she had some terrible claims about the Donald, e.i. he rapped her while married. Sorry about the extra p but TH-cam has become very picky about certain words and I suspect that might be one of them.
Outstanding analysis. I didn't realize that narcissistic traits could rub off one person to another, but this really deepens my understanding of her death. She was a lovely woman in her youth.
Yeah, I wonder if it's the same in Czech or whether she picked this up in Austria? It's much used in Austrian German, so I tend to think that she picked it up here ;)
I would have loved more analysis in regards to that burial plot on the golf course. It's just a hole in the ground with a plain flat stone...even the flowers were insufficient? Even If it were a mausoleum, the fact her final resting place is on a Golf Course...just shameful and sad
A lot of people are saying that some of the Gov classified documents Trump stole are buried in Ivanna’s empty ⚰️, since she was cremated. Numerous pall bearer’s were apparently needed to carry that empty ⚰️!
@Terry Owen, cemeteries are exempt from property tax. Just one interment turns the golf course into a "cemetery". Truly a despicable way to treat Ivana.
A grave takes a while to build. A headstone alone can take months. If they go for grandiosity, even longer. Only her children may know what she wanted for a final resting place. And if a grave can be tax deductable, go right ahead. She was a businesswoman too, she'd understand. It's not like she's burried at one of the holes.
I felt bad when I heard about what happened to her, and it must be very sad for her 96-year-old mother who has out lived her.. "She was not going to let a set of stairs reduce her standing." Was that a joke? lol
Dang ! i had no idea Ivana still had a living mom.the lesson here is that when you reach age 65 . you need to downscale. no stairs inside the house . one door in/out . her kids failed her too
@@PHlophe I feel bad for her children too. It's very difficult to lose your mother and no one should have to go through the pain of losing a child at any age let alone at 96. Also, her mother's longevity shows that Ivana had many good years left had it not been for that tragic fall. I read that she was planning to go on an exotic vacation. Looks like her destination changed. (sigh) As far as blaming her kids, I get what you are saying but I don't feel that we can. I think Ivana was strong-willed and independent. I doubt anyone could have convinced her to move. One of her closest friends said she tried to persuade her to move on several occasions but to no avail. She refused to leave. Her friend said that the stairs were extra steep and scary. Part of me wondered if she could have been pushed. I doubt it but you never know. I'm not talking about family. I was thinking maybe it was a hit (no pun intended) based on an enemy of Trump.
Many people that knew Ivanna describe her as kind and friendly. Being married to Donald required a strong personality like hers. Re her latter years, it is very common for seniors to fight against accepting physical (and mental) limitations. This does not reflect narcissism. On the whole, she remained gracious toward Donald throughout her life, and I find this admirable. RIP and Salute, Ivanna.
Trump is a confident, positive and crude New York businessman who managed to raise many doting (and successful) children. Meanwhile Biden son is currently smoking crack cocaine with ladies of the night
I love the ways in which your channel have changed. Your humor is delightful. Your take down of Life Coaches is my very very favorite. Congrats to you, you’ve found your voice.
I used to live in Prague, the capital of Czech Republic. This country is former Czechoslovakia which used to be communist until 1990. This is relatively recent, meaning that CZ has been independant since 32 years only, as of day. Based on my personal experience as an expatriate in CZ (Czech Republic), and comparing this to other countries in Europe, Asia and North America where I lived in too (not only traveled to) - I still observed a high level of poverty outside the capital Prague, an attitude of scarcity that others might take away something from them, envy observing others having more than they do themselves, and a lack of awareness and acceptance of people of color and generally, of everyone and everything that looks different from the Czech stereotypes. I assume this is largely due to the former communist regime. All in all, people appear to be traumatized by the communist regime and as a coping mechanism, would sacrifice everything to never be poor and manipulated again and to be as wealthy as possible and to be validated by others as much as possible. This is something I observed in Ivana, in her children and in a lot of elderly people in CZ. Some are indeed not like that, and there are also a lot of Czech people who are welcoming, open-minded, curious and warm, especially the younger generations. Also, Prague as a city, has become more innovative and with an excellent infrastructure, and has been a magnet for expats like me. Nevertheless, it's important to address the elephant in the room: Yes, people still feel traumatized by their communist past and can sometimes suffer from their underlying need, to never ever be poor, looked down uppn, inferior etc. again. I feel that Ivana was striving for this until her late days, maybe also generating an NPD - but I am not here to diagnose that and also unable to do that. Just wanted to throw this cultural and historical fact in here, as for us Europeans, our culture has a big impact on our identity. Yes, Ivana has lived in the US for many years, but she did still spent her childhood and teenage years in CZ, still speaks Czech.
Czechs are hard working people and were the only democracy post WW I and Pre WWII. Being occupied longer by the Nazi's first and then the commies would be demoralizing to any cohort of peopled or nationality! Being a 1/4 Czech from my father's side I don't agree with what the writer above has written. The Czechs were the first to throw off the yoke of communism in 1968 though it took 21 more years before they were finally free. In typical industrious fashion. they re-industrialized and peacefully split from Slovakia. The Czech Republic could teach us all that splitting away from one country can be done in a peaceful manner.
I knew some people who (allegedly) knew Ivana Trump or worked for Ivana Trump. All they say is that she was very high maintenance. I think she was a bit of a narcissist herself, having used her ex husband to gain Austrian citizenship. But she was probably not on the same extreme of the scale as Trump was.
If all she did was advantage of men because of status then she is an extreme narcissistic..let's not try and dump down her behaviour..the only reason we deem it less is because people take women that do this as normal, as "female nature"
@@isimioyekunlemarktaiwo3643 She was, like Melania, from a (former) communist country in Eastern Europe. Any chance to escape a communist country was considered an option, work, sports, arts or marriage.
Dr Grande,I love you so much, I don't care about your political views 😅 I laughed my self silly, with your remark about why would she miss Trump! Now I have to go back and reread the entire video
Dr Grande, as always I enjoy the sharp perspective, infused with quirky dry humour. Would you ever be interested discussing Courtney Love, both as an individual and as Kurt Cobains wife? Cheers.
Thank you Dr Grande. She really did try to be her own person in the face of the such horrible narcissism. As you said, it took it's toll even after death. How could her children have allowed her to be buried on a golf course?
@@ratdad48 A freaking GOLF COURSE in NEW JERSEY is not a place ANYONE wants to be buried. I hope she haunts him into the grave, and better sooner than later.
Her first marriage was for Austrian citizenship. Doesn't that tell you who she is? What makes you think Ivana was some wonderful parent behind closed doors?
She tried to be her own person but wasn't above selling herself to do it. I do have to give her credit, with such an extreme quantity of "butter face" she fucked her way to the top quite successfully. Her children, having such poor contributors to their genes, are just like her and willing to screw the dead to make a buck.
To survive that many years with a narcissist, you have to be an extremely strong person, especially if children are involved. I think she was a lot stronger and smarter than she got credit for, and also a very beautiful person loving mother.
All Slavic women are very strong and have very very tough but traditional values, I think this helped her a lot when dealing with being with a man that was constantly cheating on her and raising three children and staying with him for over 15 years
@Ragdoll Libby... IKR. Firefighters love to cook ... and surely they are hungry after all the work putting out a fire! Like Dr. G sez, it would certainly be a silver lining to losing your home. It can't miss!!!!
There was a pizza joint I knew called EMERGENCY PIZZA that had sirens on top of the delivery cars and had the red cross symbol on the door. That's pretty close.
Solid joke, 🤣 "should have 15 mil add For being married the The Donald!" Great delivery I COULDN'T I'm still laughing trying to breathe. LOVE YOUR WORK. We enjoy the dry humor I get stared at because of the style mostly my fault. I think your approach to educate is exceptional it has helped me develop more emotionally. Mental thinking balanced, reasoned & processed with. Inviting to all Rich, poor, ethnicity all benefit are better for it. Thank you. Dedication and sacrifices for the amount of content you produce. You are a role model for many people.
I think you hit all the high and perhaps low points. I believe these two used each other. She was prepared as a young woman to ascend the ladder of increased social status. I believe just as it is for older men to want to marry younger women, to make themselves seem as though they're still attractive, Ivana was attempting the same in her later years. By now, Trump is a "Yuge" target for criticism, jokes, as well as law suits. If he could use his ego to generate electricity, he could power most buildings in Manhattan. If there was a pictionary, the word narcissist, likely would have a picture of "The Donald". Excellent assessment Dr. Grande!
Narcissist or not. He's a billionaire. He took his father's millions and made billions, mostly from the sheer force of his personality. He's an Alpha male and I admire the man. Just think of the shit that man goes through constantly and he's still resolute. Hard nut to crack.
Dear Dr G. Fantastic checked shirt. I have had a bicycle accident and smashed my femur. It took a while but I'm now able to walk quite nimbly up and down the stairs. I put in a lift some years ago, which I use as a goods lift if Im tired etc, You are correct re her fall. Its very easy to fall after a smashed hip as the necessary surgery cuts all the muscles and you have to re-learn how to walk - which is both physically difficult and mentally very tricky. Its a very big adjustment mentally being in that state. A chaperone or giving in to slow relearning how to walk again, but the shocking pain and feelings of exhaustion and being suddenly 20 years older do prevail. The death of her young lover likely pushed her over the edge into not caring to do her rehab and having sufficient patience and determination to rebuild. I'm sure you know its an inner thing. Sadly it appears she lost her will to live, especially as her mum is 96. How sad, after all she had been through and accomplished, to be defeated by a set of stairs.
Looks to me like Ivana and Donald were not very different. Both extremely extroverted and living their own way. She DID have an elevator in her home. Others used it because they were afraid of the stairs, she would make fun of them for doing so.
Ivana was obviously a go-getter from a very young age and did very well for herself throughout her life. She lived a full and exciting life and probably knew exactly what she was doing every step of the way. I say bravo for her. Nothing to be sad about in her case, in my view.
Yes its sad she had a drinking problem and seemed to have been all alone in that townhouse. Money does not buy joy and contentment. Only God gives us that….
@@ileanahope466 I do think she had at least a housekeeper and maybe a caretaker, but not sure if that's who found her. I know her life probably didn't turn out the way she had hoped and at her age with her kids grown, she probably was lonely and hated getting older. When they mentioned that staircase, I pictured her in those awful high heels and maybe falling down those stairs. I'm a bible believer myself and know what you mean. Without Christ and what He did for me, I sure know I would have nothing. I Corinthians 15:1-4 KJV.
@@katalac She got the plot as part of her divorce settlement. The Donald set it up cemetery in order to get a tax break. The whole matter is totally ridiculous.
She had enough money to make her final arrangements and have a proper burial. Otherwise, golfers will play through right on top of her thanks to the ex.
A classic Dr. G video! 🎯 Good insights, and truly funny asides. BTW, cemeteries are exempt from property tax. That is why he buried her there, at the first hole ... which is truly despicable. She deserves better.
Not only are they exempt from property taxes, they cannot be foreclosed upon. Thus Trump can mortgage the property to the hilt and fail to pay with no consequences.

Also seems he’s a left-winger!
I love your channel, Dr. G! Your voice is so soothing and it's part of my night time routine to listen to your content. If I fall asleep, I go back and replay your videos. I get a kick out of your little "digs" - you are very skilled at keeping your voice and face deadpan and could easily be missed if not familiar with your personality and style. 🥰
Sad story.
I think we sometimes confuse narcissism for stubbornness and denial of age or ailments.
I know my mom is very much like this….she’s just stubborn and keeps going like an energizer bunny despite pain from age and surgeries.
100%. We might not agree with elderly's reasoning...but we need to be careful we do not fall into "AGEISM". Treating them as children or unable is something many elderly resent. Many become stubborn BECAUSE they feel they are less valued or a burden. Many times the last thing they have is control of their body and home. Now that I am retired as a RN...last thing I want is some whippersnapper telling me what I should do medically or safety wise even if I know it is unsafe to climb a ladder to fix a gutter. When you can't do it...then you simply can't do it. Just sayin...offer help but let them make the decisions as long as your able to. IF a family member says don't call 911 and let them die...tell them maybe they won't die and you don't want to go to jail for elder abuse. Then leave them to think about it. WORKS.

Yeah funny you
Mention this ….I am literally texting back and forth with my brother about our game plan for mom as he body is falling apart but she’s Sharp as a tack.
Unfortunately our siblings that live near her are worthless so I’m probably going to bring her to my place in Georgia
Where I’m prepared for many
More years of this great reset crap.
I’ve been prepping since I was 21y/O and now I’m 51.
@@tanyabriggs8969 I'm a retired RN who cared for my Mom for 6+ years in her home. It was handicap accessible and she spent 4 years on her own, though I lived within a mile and came to check on her often and called frequently. She loved her independence! She had a old motorized wheelchair and watered her plants. We have arthritis in the family and she knew her limitations. She didn't drive anymore and I did grocery runs and we'd do meals together. I was working at night away from home 83 miles round trip. We'd chat on the phone on my way home! Fortunately Mom never had any broken bones. She was a very intelligent woman and I was with her till the end. It doesn't work out for every one, empathy was on my side. Tanya Briggs, I enjoyed all your comments!
That’s not narcissism lol
My thoughts exactly!
Gotta tell you, Dr. Todd, I'm loving your wry wit & dryly humorous remarks in some of your more recent vids! Sometimes they catch me off guard, but they do make me lol.😆 All the best!
HI DR GRANDE ❤️ thank you for posting yet again, I love to listen to you at bed time. Your voice is so soothing!
Me too! Goodnight from Las Vegas ❤
Dr. Grande has a calming, soothing voice .
Same for me in Florida. 👍
Same, he’s my lullaby lol
I really liked Ivana. She had a warm, open hearted personality and was very intelligent. I think Dr. Grande nailed it about her athletic history being the reason she would not accept physical limitations. Rest In Peace, gallant lady.

Your sly comic relief is why I still watch you. I found you while researching Narcissistic Personality Disorder but stayed for your interesting topics, witty humor, as well as your professional opinion. Thank you Dr. Grande. 👏😊
The hardest working man on TH-cam!!! Hands down the most content pumped out with zero devaluation. Quantity AND quality!!!
Edit: two or three projects a day and we ain’t seen the same shirt twice 🤣❤️
Well done, Doctor Grande. You've got the humor down to a fine art.
One thing that I do respect about her, is that she took steps to get away from the country. Plus, she's always been smart about her businesses. She was every bit Trump's equal.
Not surprised that the marriage to the younger man. She should've learned that from her ex husband.
Love and wanting to
be loved is blind.
She alone raised the three children and that after she divorced the Donald she had successful businesses and made tons of QVC millions. She was actually more of a successful business person than DT. She also negotiated the use of Mar a lago for one month a year in her divorce settlement which is probably why she was comfortable having her wedding there.
she is also buried there
@@deborahflynn1708 she was buried at the golf course in N J
Too bad she didn't get completely away from the D. She didn't need him at all. She was a beautiful smart woman.
@@poodlegirl55 unbelievable. I was trying to move to that cow town in NJ the taxes was too high. I move to Florida. Lord I didn't know he would come here too
Just about everyone in the media spent 4 years talking about how shit his kids were so if she raised them isn't that at least equally her fault?
This is one of the best videos yet that you've done. On so many levels, I think you captured the essence of a narcissistic relationship, the long term consequences, the danger of actually appropriating narcissistic characteristics (or having them in the first place) and the dynamics of the family and spouses afterward. Love it, love your humor!! Thanks, Dr. Grande.
You are hilarious!! Thankyou for wrapping humor in with your dry wit. Makes a difficult subject much more tolerable.
I wish I could give you about 100 more thumbs up for your comedy quips on this one lol love it
If the The Office show was still onair. i would definitely recomend you to write an episode. Your humor is too good. 😂
Called sarcasm

Oh the good doctor outdid himself in this one!!! Love it!!! ❤
Always so excited to click on your channel and find a new analysis!!!
This assessment is spot on! I was hoping you would cover this case, glad you did it.🙂
Thank you, Dr. Grande!❤️
I always look forward to your videos, Dr. Grande you are amazing….. keep it coming.
The shirt rocks DrG the jokes are 🔥 on this one, especially her divorce settlement, and you're the best combination of knowledge and humor on TH-cam
Thanks doc! Your analysis really was as intriguing as a firetruck that quenches flames and hunger 🤣🤣
While not quenching a desire to hear about the kids; as that need indeed has never existed~ then or now 🙄 Dr. G, rocks this vid 😅
I would love to hear Dr. Grande question/critique himself. That would be entertaining.
Love your humour Dr. G.
I read in the comments here that he has done that before, but I've not seen it if such a video exists. I'm not sure what search term to use either to find it.
@@g3synth205 yes he has. He did his famous OCEAN analysis on himself :) unfortunately I don't remember the title of the video. Might be one of his special episodes he did whenever he reached a 100k + subscribers mark.
YES, Dr. Grande needs to go back to class and sit and critique himself...as well as let the other students do the same. We all have to do it early on...but think he should do so again IMHO. WHY did he find the need to do this video so soon after Ivana's death...and shortly after the Trump Mar a lago raid that he mentioned? I can think of 1 reason. A need to capitalize on the headlines...be damn the children and grandchild that will likely get this video sent to them during their mourning. DR. should have waited a long time IF EVER...to make this video public. Shame on all praising him for this bad professional manner.
@@tanyabriggs8969
That’s not what I had in mind at all but you made some valid points.
I knew nothing about Ivana prior to this video except that she was married to Donald.
Dr. Grande does critique people who are currently in the news otherwise people simply move on to the next crisis.
its all scripted, making the 'good' doctor part of the club. why the brick wall behind him? ive heard others accuse him of way worse... 🤨
OMG "But if I stop smoking why do I need a fire truck?" You're killing me Dr. Grande LOL
Dr grande, you are getting more and more humorous . Love your analyses
She was alone and lonely. She let a gigolo take advantage of her. She got co-dependent with him, and when he died, her purpose for living died also. She was blind to who he really was to her.
Do you know that he took advantage of her, or is this just your interpretation?
Are you saying she was not smart enough to know what she was doing when she married the giggalo? Was took advantage of. I Don't buy that ! Women are as smart and cunning as any man.
@@Stefanie3 she accused him of marital rape. His response wasn’t ‘no

My mother navigated her staircase until she died at 93, despite having some sort of stiffness in her leg. It was good for her. I don't think wanting to incorporate exercise into your daily life, at any age, is 'narcissistic', and climbing stairs is a GREAT way to do that. I actually think it's a good idea. Use it or loose it. Having said that, accidents can happen to anyone at any time.
You forget Ivana was drunk most of the time.....
@@zanzah_ that's a good point zanzah. I didn't think about that. I might have reconsidered if my mom was a drinker.
My grandmother lived on the 7 floor in an apartment building without an elevator. She lived to be 90 and went up and down the stairs every day.
@@alice_rabbit8345 how did she pass away
@@aloowalia2849 She fell down the stairs.
So sad. Her children tried to give her an alert device but she didn’t want to wear it. They were the ones who were truly looking out for her. Her 2nd husband/ boy toy certainly wasn’t.
Third husband.
He was dead.
He’d passed away before she died.
her kids could have moved closer , they have ample means. a cow bell ring is disrespectful and frankly she should have downscaled a decade ago. too many injuries as we get older , big ass apartments are a health hazard
@@PHlophe no that's not disrespectful. Even if your kids live with you, you can still fall and get hurt. Oh smart watches are great alternative. My friend's mom wears one and she fell while he was at work. He send help to her.
"Not having to be married to Donald Trump, that's gotta be worth another 10-15 million dollars" I almost spit my coffee across the kitchen!!
Good lord, I thought I was the only one who heard that! 👌😁🤣
In her first autobiography she had some terrible claims about the Donald, e.i. he rapped her while married. Sorry about the extra p but TH-cam has become very picky about certain words and I suspect that might be one of them.
Oops, that was meant for Robert above you, sorry.
@@canterburytail2294 oh my lord. I actually hope their babies didn't hear about that. That's awful no matter who you are.
Well thank you for the information about this woman.. I was not aware of all this information. thank you
Outstanding analysis. I didn't realize that narcissistic traits could rub off one person to another, but this really deepens my understanding of her death. She was a lovely woman in her youth.
As a German speaker, I 100% understand how she accidentally said ‘the Donald’
Behringer , Bosch, Blaupunkt??
Yeah, I wonder if it's the same in Czech or whether she picked this up in Austria? It's much used in Austrian German, so I tend to think that she picked it up here ;)
You hit the nail right on the head on this one. Loved your comments about Trump. Could not be closer to the truth.
I love POTUS Trump! ❤️ 🇺🇸
@@alaskangal1973 you and too many others unfortunately. One day those that drank the kook aid will wake up. Hopefully it won’t be too late.
love ur Channel Dr.! I look forward to your daily videos.👍
Marriage to a narcissist never workout. They're not capable of loving anyone else but themselves.
"Nobody wanted to hear about her children in 2017 just like they dont want to hear about them now." ROFLMAO.. OMG..LOL. too funny!
I would have loved more analysis in regards to that burial plot on the golf course. It's just a hole in the ground with a plain flat stone...even the flowers were insufficient? Even If it were a mausoleum, the fact her final resting place is on a Golf Course...just shameful and sad
A lot of people are saying that some of the Gov classified documents Trump stole are buried in Ivanna’s empty ⚰️, since she was cremated. Numerous pall bearer’s were apparently needed to carry that empty ⚰️!
@Terry Owen, cemeteries are exempt from property tax. Just one interment turns the golf course into a "cemetery". Truly a despicable way to treat Ivana.
I agree. So sad and disrespectful.
Apparently her kids are ok with it.
A grave takes a while to build. A headstone alone can take months. If they go for grandiosity, even longer. Only her children may know what she wanted for a final resting place.
And if a grave can be tax deductable, go right ahead. She was a businesswoman too, she'd understand.
It's not like she's burried at one of the holes.
I felt bad when I heard about what happened to her, and it must be very sad for her 96-year-old mother who has out lived her.. "She was not going to let a set of stairs reduce her standing." Was that a joke? lol
He also mentioned her...."downfall"
Dang ! i had no idea Ivana still had a living mom.the lesson here is that when you reach age 65 . you need to downscale. no stairs inside the house . one door in/out . her kids failed her too
@@Annenigmatic Let's not forget the "killer stairs" lol.
Omg 😱 how terrible! Didn’t know that, very tragic
@@PHlophe I feel bad for her children too. It's very difficult to lose your mother and no one should have to go through the pain of losing a child at any age let alone at 96. Also, her mother's longevity shows that Ivana had many good years left had it not been for that tragic fall. I read that she was planning to go on an exotic vacation. Looks like her destination changed. (sigh) As far as blaming her kids, I get what you are saying but I don't feel that we can. I think Ivana was strong-willed and independent. I doubt anyone could have convinced her to move. One of her closest friends said she tried to persuade her to move on several occasions but to no avail. She refused to leave. Her friend said that the stairs were extra steep and scary. Part of me wondered if she could have been pushed. I doubt it but you never know. I'm not talking about family. I was thinking maybe it was a hit (no pun intended) based on an enemy of Trump.
You crack me up with his pizza delivery service idea 😂🚒👍
I collect your videos thru the week then binge watch/listen while doing chores.
Love it 😊
Shield 🛡️ of narcissism 💯🖤🖤♂️🐈⬛🪞🌹😍🤣🤣😅😁
Many people that knew Ivanna describe her as kind and friendly. Being married to Donald required a strong personality like hers. Re her latter years, it is very common for seniors to fight against accepting physical (and mental) limitations. This does not reflect narcissism. On the whole, she remained gracious toward Donald throughout her life, and I find this admirable. RIP and Salute, Ivanna.
This had me laughing. Such wonderful dead-pan understated humour.
Your analysis is dead on Dr Grande. Always a pleasure to watch. 14:50
Is trump a narcissist? This is news to me. I never would have guessed. Always seemed like such a humble altruistic guy 🙃
😆😬

He's certainly peculiar, but he sure turned out to be an excellent president.
Trump is a confident, positive and crude New York businessman who managed to raise many doting (and successful) children.

I love the ways in which your channel have changed. Your humor is delightful. Your take down of Life Coaches is my very very favorite. Congrats to you, you’ve found your voice.
YIKES, DOC! You were brutal in this one about Ivana & The Donald.
Well, no one likes to feel rejected. He honored the mother of his children in various ways after their divorce.
I used to live in Prague, the capital of Czech Republic. This country is former Czechoslovakia which used to be communist until 1990. This is relatively recent, meaning that CZ has been independant since 32 years only, as of day.
Based on my personal experience as an expatriate in CZ (Czech Republic), and comparing this to other countries in Europe, Asia and North America where I lived in too (not only traveled to) - I still observed a high level of poverty outside the capital Prague, an attitude of scarcity that others might take away something from them, envy observing others having more than they do themselves, and a lack of awareness and acceptance of people of color and generally, of everyone and everything that looks different from the Czech stereotypes.
I assume this is largely due to the former communist regime. All in all, people appear to be traumatized by the communist regime and as a coping mechanism, would sacrifice everything to never be poor and manipulated again and to be as wealthy as possible and to be validated by others as much as possible.
This is something I observed in Ivana, in her children and in a lot of elderly people in CZ. Some are indeed not like that, and there are also a lot of Czech people who are welcoming, open-minded, curious and warm, especially the younger generations. Also, Prague as a city, has become more innovative and with an excellent infrastructure, and has been a magnet for expats like me.
Nevertheless, it's important to address the elephant in the room: Yes, people still feel traumatized by their communist past and can sometimes suffer from their underlying need, to never ever be poor, looked down uppn, inferior etc. again. I feel that Ivana was striving for this until her late days, maybe also generating an NPD - but I am not here to diagnose that and also unable to do that. Just wanted to throw this cultural and historical fact in here, as for us Europeans, our culture has a big impact on our identity. Yes, Ivana has lived in the US for many years, but she did still spent her childhood and teenage years in CZ, still speaks Czech.
Czechs are hard working people and were the only democracy post WW I and Pre WWII. Being occupied longer by the Nazi's first and then the commies would be demoralizing to any cohort of peopled or nationality! Being a 1/4 Czech from my father's side I don't agree with what the writer above has written. The Czechs were the first to throw off the yoke of communism in 1968 though it took 21 more years before they were finally free. In typical industrious fashion. they re-industrialized and peacefully split from Slovakia. The Czech Republic could teach us all that splitting away from one country can be done in a peaceful manner.
I live for his subtle sarcasm.
I knew some people who (allegedly) knew Ivana Trump or worked for Ivana Trump. All they say is that she was very high maintenance. I think she was a bit of a narcissist herself, having used her ex husband to gain Austrian citizenship. But she was probably not on the same extreme of the scale as Trump was.
I think you may be right..that sounds similar to what I have heard 🤔
If all she did was advantage of men because of status then she is an extreme narcissistic..let's not try and dump down her behaviour..the only reason we deem it less is because people take women that do this as normal, as "female nature"
They were an awesome family though! Until she rejected his cheating.
@@isimioyekunlemarktaiwo3643 She was, like Melania, from a (former) communist country in Eastern Europe. Any chance to escape a communist country was considered an option, work, sports, arts or marriage.

Only in public. I can only imagine what went on behind closed doors...
Dr Grande,I love you so much, I don't care about your political views 😅 I laughed my self silly, with your remark about why would she miss Trump! Now I have to go back and reread the entire video
Dr Grande, as always I enjoy the sharp perspective, infused with quirky dry humour. Would you ever be interested discussing Courtney Love, both as an individual and as Kurt Cobains wife? Cheers.
Id love 2 give that a watch myself, if it gets made lol
YES!! Fantastic suggestion ♥️
Yes!
I love Kurt Cobain ♥️
Oooooh yes!!!!
It's called The Czech Republic ...been so for the last 25 years.
When she was still a teen-ager .. Then it was Czechoslovakia.
Thank you Dr Grande. She really did try to be her own person in the face of the such horrible narcissism. As you said, it took it's toll even after death. How could her children have allowed her to be buried on a golf course?
Maybe she had a plot already picked out! Duh! And I'm about positive it's not in the middle of the fairway!! Yikes!😣
Couldn't pass up the tax breaks.
@@ratdad48 A freaking GOLF COURSE in NEW JERSEY is not a place ANYONE wants to be buried. I hope she haunts him into the grave, and better sooner than later.
Her first marriage was for Austrian citizenship. Doesn't that tell you who she is? What makes you think Ivana was some wonderful parent behind closed doors?
She tried to be her own person but wasn't above selling herself to do it. I do have to give her credit, with such an extreme quantity of "butter face" she fucked her way to the top quite successfully.
Her children, having such poor contributors to their genes, are just like her and willing to screw the dead to make a buck.
Two narcissistic people meeting and falling in love. A tale as old as time....
Love this analysis! Dr Grande, I also love your dry, and well focused humor!
It's been a tough day thanks for cracking me up..you never fail.
Sigh, I believe Donald might have been a platform to jump from but I see her as a shrewd businesswoman and not part of his narcissism.
Your analysis is always impeccable, and your humor always makes me chuckle. 😊😊
I have dry humor which usually doesn't work which makes me wonder how people in his life take him.
To survive that many years with a narcissist, you have to be an extremely strong person, especially if children are involved. I think she was a lot stronger and smarter than she got credit for, and also a very beautiful person loving mother.
All Slavic women are very strong and have very very tough but traditional values, I think this helped her a lot when dealing with being with a man that was constantly cheating on her and raising three children and staying with him for over 15 years
Very good analysis Doctor. Thanks for sharing your talent.
Dr Grande is part of my self care routine.
After a long, harsh day or even just an axiety imducing situation Dr. Grande's voice is cosy medicine to me
Her husband wanted a food truck that just happened to be a fire truck. I’m surprised no one else hasn’t taken off with that idea.
@Ragdoll Libby... IKR. Firefighters love to cook ... and surely they are hungry after all the work putting out a fire! Like Dr. G sez, it would certainly be a silver lining to losing your home. It can't miss!!!!

Mental thinking balanced, reasoned & processed with. Inviting to all Rich, poor, ethnicity all benefit are better for it. Thank you. Dedication and sacrifices for the amount of content you produce. You are a role model for many people.
Yes, he is
I think you hit all the high and perhaps low points.
I believe these two used each other. She was prepared as a young woman to ascend the ladder of increased social status. I believe just as it is for older men to want to marry younger women, to make themselves seem as though they're still attractive, Ivana was attempting the same in her later years.
By now, Trump is a "Yuge" target for criticism, jokes, as well as law suits. If he could use his ego to generate electricity, he could power most buildings in Manhattan. If there was a pictionary, the word narcissist, likely would have a picture of "The Donald".
Excellent assessment Dr. Grande!
A very co dependent relationship to the end
Narcissist or not. He's a billionaire. He took his father's millions and made billions, mostly from the sheer force of his personality. He's an Alpha male and I admire the man. Just think of the shit that man goes through constantly and he's still resolute. Hard nut to crack.
Dear Dr G. Fantastic checked shirt. I have had a bicycle accident and smashed my femur. It took a while but I'm now able to walk quite nimbly up and down the stairs. I put in a lift some years ago, which I use as a goods lift if Im tired etc, You are correct re her fall. Its very easy to fall after a smashed hip as the necessary surgery cuts all the muscles and you have to re-learn how to walk - which is both physically difficult and mentally very tricky. Its a very big adjustment mentally being in that state. A chaperone or giving in to slow relearning how to walk again, but the shocking pain and feelings of exhaustion and being suddenly 20 years older do prevail. The death of her young lover likely pushed her over the edge into not caring to do her rehab and having sufficient patience and determination to rebuild. I'm sure you know its an inner thing. Sadly it appears she lost her will to live, especially as her mum is 96. How sad, after all she had been through and accomplished, to be defeated by a set of stairs.
I looked up the word hubris in the dictionary and there was a photo of Donald Trump in the description.
Good god.
“Legendary Narcissist” had me dying 😂
Looks to me like Ivana and Donald were not very different. Both extremely extroverted and living their own way. She DID have an elevator in her home. Others used it because they were afraid of the stairs, she would make fun of them for doing so.
You're right
That’s just crazy. Wow, just wow
having nice stuff has nothing to do with being a narcissist
Ivana was obviously a go-getter from a very young age and did very well for herself throughout her life. She lived a full and exciting life and probably knew exactly what she was doing every step of the way. I say bravo for her. Nothing to be sad about in her case, in my view.
Yes its sad she had a drinking problem and seemed to have been all alone in that townhouse. Money does not buy joy and contentment. Only God gives us that….
@@ileanahope466 I do think she had at least a housekeeper and maybe a caretaker, but not sure if that's who found her. I know her life probably didn't turn out the way she had hoped and at her age with her kids grown, she probably was lonely and hated getting older. When they mentioned that staircase, I pictured her in those awful high heels and maybe falling down those stairs. I'm a bible believer myself and know what you mean. Without Christ and what He did for me, I sure know I would have nothing. I Corinthians 15:1-4 KJV.
@@cynthiamurphy3669 That is so true….!
She was simply a gold digger.
Don’t want to be a hater, but she could have purchased her own burial plot or mausoleum instead of being buried behind a sand trap.
People like her don't ever expect to die
@@katalac She got the plot as part of her divorce settlement. The Donald set it up cemetery in order to get a tax break. The whole matter is totally ridiculous.
What's worse she had a sizeable estate and he used her money to bury her there. He gets his tax dodge and it costs him nothing. Win. Win.
The sand trap was her ex-husband's idea, not hers.
She had enough money to make her final arrangements and have a proper burial. Otherwise, golfers will play through right on top of her thanks to the ex.
I'm so glad to hear you acknowledge Trump's narcissism. It's important for the public to understand what motivates him.
Agree. It is so obvious to many of us - but many others do not even know.

A classic Dr. G video! 🎯 Good insights, and truly funny asides. BTW, cemeteries are exempt from property tax. That is why he buried her there, at the first hole ... which is truly despicable. She deserves better.
Wow. "The first hole." That's sumpin'. And exempt from property tax. Wow. Audacious.
Not only are they exempt from property taxes, they cannot be foreclosed upon. Thus Trump can mortgage the property to the hilt and fail to pay with no consequences.
So he turned the first hole into a cemetery. How did he control her place of burial? She could have said otherwise in her will. Crazy.

"This is not compatible with being alive" is my favorite quote from Dr Grande (from another video I commented on)
“In addition, she no longer had to be married to Donald Trump, which has to be worth at least another $10-$15M “ … I’m dying on that one. In addition to brilliance, Dr. G brings some of the best low key shade on social media. I live for it.
