But there’s a twist: Geraint himself is on the psychopath spectrum. In this gripping interview, he reveals the ruthless tactics used by the elites to manipulate the masses and, in a chilling finale, he measures me up and exposes my own weaknesses. --- - Get Geraint’s book, "How to Con Friends and Manipulate People," here: https://amzn.eu/d/03V21rfP - Beat the system with my sponsor TallyMoney.
