History has set the precedent for the stereotypical dictator to be a narcissistic, war hungry, manipulative, sociopathic, intelligent, megalomaniac, pathological liar. To be honest, what sane person, who doesn't have any of these traits, would fight or persuade their way to the top then abuse their power over their country. Though, in theory, dictators won't always do bad and abuse their power but name one infamous dictator that hasn't shown at least one of these traits so far. For example, Hilter made his way into power after Germany's president, Paul von Hindenburg, died as he took himself from being chancellor to being Fü­hrer (a mixed between the chancellor and the president.) From there, he made sure he couldn't be removed from power through many actions, which, is pretty manipulative if you ask me... I'm not exactly saying all dictators will always have all of these traits. Only most of them.
