social con-artist
A social confidence-artist is someone who exploits characteristics of the human psyche such as the need for acceptance, and the unconditional: fear of anger, fear of intellectual challenges, respect for outward self-control, respect for outward un-selfconsciousness, worship of charisma, and desire for popularity. They pretend it is noble to tell people what they want to hear, when it is in fact merely expediently politic.
