Is there a word for a person (or an attribute to describe a person) who habitually interprets facts and words in such a way that their interpretation proves their argument is correct while others wrong. In other words, a term for a person (or an attribute for a person) who always makes the most self-serving interpretation of the facts to benefit themselves the most.
Example of such person:
- Politicians who always interpret facts to prove they are correct and to prove that the opposition are not.
- In quarrels (say between two partners, not just legal quarrels, but say between husband and wife), one may keep saying that opposition's interpretations of facts are wrong and provide his / her version of interpretations (interpretations which will comforts him / proves opposition wrong and him / her correct).
