Narcissistic personality disorder (NPD)

Ironically there is a German neo-nazi party that was abbreviated NPD until they where renamed in 2023 to The Homeland. Yes, that pathetic name is their official name.

That didn't happen. And if it did, it wasn't that bad. And if it was, that's not a big deal. And if it is, that's not my fault. And if it was, I didn't mean it. And if I did, you deserved it.

They feel inescapable, and it sucks being ruled by them

Yes, my understanding is that they're irredeemable. They are often the people in power because they bully their way up.
