In terms of his presidency, Trump is only a narcissist in the fact that the country doing well makes him look good.

Believing that he leads the most powerful country in the world and is the most powerful leader go hand-in-hand. 

I appreciate the answer, but it's still not really how a narcist makes a good president. The country doing well makes anyone look good. 

According to the mayo clinic the nine traits that define a narcist are:

• Have an exaggerated sense of self-importance
• Have a sense of entitlement and require constant, excessive admiration
• Expect to be recognized as superior even without achievements that warrant it
• Exaggerate achievements and talents
• Be preoccupied with fantasies about success, power, brilliance, beauty or the perfect mate
• Believe they are superior and can only associate with equally special people
• Monopolize conversations and belittle or look down on people they perceive as inferior
• Expect special favors and unquestioning compliance with their expectations
• Take advantage of others to get what they want
• Have an inability or unwillingness to recognize the needs and feelings of others
• Be envious of others and believe others envy them
• Behave in an arrogant or haughty manner, coming across as conceited, boastful and pretentious
• Insist on having the best of everything — for instance, the best car or office
  

At the same time, people with narcissistic personality disorder have trouble handling anything they perceive as criticism, and they can:

• Become impatient or angry when they don't receive special treatment
• Have significant interpersonal problems and easily feel slighted
• React with rage or contempt and try to belittle the other person to make themselves appear superior
• Have difficulty regulating emotions and behavior
• Experience major problems dealing with stress and adapting to change
• Feel depressed and moody because they fall short of perfection
• Have secret feelings of insecurity, shame, vulnerability and humiliation
  

Now, for a second, imagine it's Biden. Just take trump out of the issue. Imagine Biden is the narcist. How would any of the nine listed first be a benefit? Would the second seven be a detriment? Is that (a narcist) a leader you would want?
