Now it all makes sense!

I know that you can find a study for anything. I spend a fair amount of time on scientific sites looking for other things. I saw this and thought it was worth a good laugh?   

"Trump supporters report higher levels of psychopathy, manipulativeness, callousness, and narcissism"

https://www.psypost.org/trump-supporters-report-higher-levels-of-psychopathy-manipulativeness-callousness-and-narcissism/

A new psychological study has found that people who report favorable views of Donald Trump also tend to score higher on measures of callousness, manipulation, and other malevolent traits—and lower on empathy and compassion. The findings, based on two large surveys of U.S. adults, shed light on how personality traits relate to political beliefs, including support for Trump and conservative ideology. The research was recently published in the Journal of Research in Personality.

I mean, disregarding others for personal gain, lack of empathy? 

Malevolent personality traits—sometimes called "dark" traits—include tendencies such as manipulativeness, callousness, narcissism, and a lack of empathy. These traits are often captured by concepts like psychopathy, Machiavellianism, and narcissism, which together reflect a general disposition toward exploiting or disregarding others for personal gain.

I mean, they're pro-science so probably

Well, to be fair, leftists think it's virtuous to allow unlimited numbers of foreign born, fighting age men across open borders without consequence, and to the detriment of their children and female populations. What's psychopathy is THAT categorized as?

Clinically cucked for starters.

They wouldn't understand standing up for oneself outside of limp-wristed protesting, so I get that taking care of my family first would seem callous, and in blatant disregard of the 'needs' of refugees, homeless trannies and delinquents. I do disregard them.

I would think that's so obvious you don't really need a scientific study, but putting it on paper does make it seem more official I guess.

holy cow! Obama is a Trump supporter?!!?

I'd bet that if they did the same study on people who want to become president, it would show the same results.

my first thought after reading your post is that the people who did this study are narcissists themselves and too deep in their own delusions to recognize it.

That's because you don't like the results of the study.

I live and work with a lot of Trump supporters. My work place, my community, it's crawling with them. Most, not all, but most, are some of the kindest, caring, do anything for you, empty their pocket books when your in need, kind of people you will ever see.

Most of the Democrats that I know from our area, not all but most, are the same.

Found one you agree with? 

If you look, they do tons of phycological studies. To be fair on this, this one makes just as much sense as the other does to me.

"Antihierarchical aggression refers to a specific type of hostility aimed at challenging or opposing hierarchical power structures or authority figures."

Which political party supporter is more likely to post ACAB, and boot on the neck anarchist crap?
