Study confirms Trump supporters are major assholes

Trump Supporters Report Having Higher Levels of Psychopathy, Manipulativeness, Callousness, and Narcissism
A study found that Trump supporters report enjoying the pain of others, lacking empathy and having higher levels of psychopathy, manipulativeness, callousness, and narcissism.

The Journal of Research in Personality reported that psychopathic traits and malevolent disposition predicted an increase in conservative political ideology, whereas a benevolent disposition predicted decreased conservative ideology, which is to sway more liberal ideology.

Conservative ideology was represented “by symbolic and operational ideology and positive view of Trump.”

The study found “psychopathic traits and malevolent disposition predicted increased conservative political ideology,” whereas “Benevolent disposition predicted decreased conservative ideology–i.e., more liberal ideology”.

It was really quite simple and rather discouraging: “Those viewing Trump favorably reported elevated malevolent and reduced benevolent dispositions, and less empathy.”
