The underlying reason for narcissism?

So there are obvious examples of persons being narcissists, like Donald Trump, Napoleon. I wonder what is the underlying reason for it, is it to compensate for a sense of low self-esteem, I know it is some epigenetic damage. and I do think that I and a number of other relatives have it as well, so can it be fixed, and again I would like a explanation for it all if I may.

    This would be another epic "cure" for ISPS as "EVERYONE KNOWS" narcissism is absolutely incurable...

    Well the problem with it, is that at our core, we identify with parasites, so our personality is based on it.
    The real solution to it is the Beauty Way state.

    In that case, Donald Trump who is a narciscist, is a lost cause, without the beaty way state?

    Narcissists in general do not go to see a therapist.
    I've even met one who claim to be a therapist (and apparently not a great one) claiming he has never seen a psychologist or psychotherapist for himself, and never will, because "they are all incompetent clowns" !
    So, yes, I believe the cause of the narcissism actually prevents them from even considering that THEY would have a problem to treat.
