It may not be that they were wounded by their childhood. Psychopaths actually show no activity in the empathy center of the frontal cortex, and this had been measured with fMRIs. Some psychopaths came from caring families. Conversely, some kids who grow up in a family with multiple problems end up being ethical and successful.

Yes, the etiology is more complicated than I presented. But we know the damages trumps parents inflicted upon his psyche, so I was presenting that...might be genetic, or might be parenting. Chicken or egg?
There is also evidence that there is a gene for sociopathy that may be passed from one generation to the next. That sure fits with the known generations of trumps: his PGF, his father, himself, and Jr.
It is a good question. Is it a gene or learned behavior, passed through generations. The absence of brain activity in the empathy center of the frontal cortex can be isolated to one individual in a family, so does that mean that it's genetic mutation isolated to that one individual?

But I agree with the rest of your comment.

Precisely.
