Does he even understand what the word "sorry" means? Has he ever uttered it in his life?

Narcissistic people don't say sorry because they can't accept personal responsibility for anything

The full extent of this can only be understood in context with personal experience regarding a narcissist.

It is literally unbelievable otherwise. Hell, even then it is hard to understand by anyone having a tiny bit of empathy.

I think it's not that they don't accept personal responsibility. In fact, they think everything is about them, thus they are responsible for everything.

The real issue is that they think they can't do anything wrong. Everything revolves around them and their actions are good, by definition.

Only when saying "no I will not play 'sorry' that is a lame game, we'll play monopoly with my house rules, to make it more accurate. Also I already own boardwalk, and have a casino there"

He's the kind of person that enjoys monopoly.

While that is a run-on sentence, it's far too coherent.

Also, there's a severe lack of "I have the best rules", "people always say I have the best rules" or similar.

Even if he played Sorry, when he knocked someone back to start when they were on the home stretch, he probably STILL wouldn't even say "Soooooorrrryyyy!" in a super sarcastic voice, like you are supposed to do.

Here’s a search containing a massive collection of public documents from US Presidents: https://www.presidency.ucsb.edu/advanced-search?field-keywords=Sorry&field-keywords2=&field-keywords3=&from%5Bdate%5D=&to%5Bdate%5D=&person2=200301&items_per_page=25

I searched “Sorry” under Trump and not a single one of the first 25 results appears to be a sincere apology. I see tons of “Sorry you feel that way” type comments, which is unsurprising.
