Trump Supporters Display Higher Prevalence of Malevolent Traits

It's a form of self flaggelation.

More from Mr. Boogaloo. Hope all those lasers and night scopes keep you warm and safe in your bunker or safe room. Bugout bag ready to go and patriots rations all stocked up w 100 gallons of water and gasoline. The heavy stuff of lead and gold will weigh you down, but best of luck in the upcoming events. Hope your Hawaiian shirt is a comfort and matches the shorts you choose on your special day.

Closed minded contempt is what is your side has in the heart and mind for your fellow man. You should have been a volunteer to be in the cast of Civil War 2024.

This is not what Civil War will look like, when it happens.

The study recognizes that not all Trump Supporters fit their conclusions. Just that the traits they display have a higher prevalence than the average and that they sport more malevolent traits than benevolent ones. Originally Posted by HDGristle

As I stated early on, I don't think there is enough info to make a conclusion, researchers can sway results by the questions they ask.

Once, I was at the bar with all Democrats, after a political event, with a friend in office, County level people, nobody knew I wasn't one, the things I heard, the hatred for Republican candidates, their talk about the real things they do better than R's or anyone else.


No, its on both sides, guaranteed..

Ever see someone working in a shit job, and then when you look at the tatoos on, and four pounds of metal in their face, and wonder why they can't get a better one?

Yeah.

Yawn.
And btw Congress voted on and approved the funding you reference above in the BBB. Trump didn’t bypass anybody. But you already knew that. Originally Posted by Green_Mountain

And isn't the BBB the first time that he actually used congress to do thier job! And he still had to beat a few of them about the head to get his way?
And the ones with morals quit rather than fuck the american people like that!
Up till then he's been ruling by dictat.
And like I said his version of the enabling act!
And yes approved by Nazis for a Nazi!
Your TFS is always on full display!

Dude you clowns have thrown the judicial branch at everything Trump has tried to do.

The same judiciary has overstepped their bounds and ruled complete nonsense. But you know what? Trump has played by the rules and escalated what was needed to SCOTUS.

A dictator? Not at all and you have no idea.

47 lives rent free in your head? 100% yes.

The trend towards Trump supporters accepting authoritarianism has older roots than just this study.

Since he’s a dictator there must be dozens and dozens of them. Super easy to list out right?

Another check written that can’t be cashed.

Looks like you posted the same story twice for a debatable topic and a 3rd link for how courts can hold Trump accountable.

Must be dozens of examples of Trump defiance and going rogue against court rulings. I mean he is a dictator right?

Hmmm.

Also, it seems like the anecdotal examples of benevolence died out. Anyone have more?

The research, led by psychologist Craig Neumann of the University of North Texas, examined whether certain personality traits—those associated with callousness, manipulation, and even enjoyment of others’ suffering—correlate with conservative ideology and support for Trump. The findings are striking: people who view Trump favorably are more likely to score higher on measures of malevolent traits and lower on empathy and compassion.

“People who view malevolent political figures favorably also report less empathy for others and enjoy the suffering of others,”

This is seen, for example, in the response of Trump votes who call for machine gun nests to open fire on migrants, or to carpet bomb the Palestinian people because of Hamas. Little regard given to the human cost or the human causes. A callousness to the human condition rationalized in whatever way seems appropriate.

For balance and as a reminder that this doesn't apply to all Trum supporters... can we show Trump supporters embracing immigration? Pushing back on wanton killing? Focusing on many of Christ's teachings of caring for your fellow man?

They talk the talk about following Christ, but don't walk the walk!
They like Christian nationalism, a power grab, saw one of those assholes on TV last night going on about if they don't like your business they are going to shut you down!
Virtue virtue virtue!
Just what we need an American Taliban!
These people go to alligator alcatraz to take selfies!
And take the kids!
What can you say about that other than the cruelty is the point!
And insuring that the apple dosent fall too far from the bigotry!

As I said earlier there are going to be a lot of very uncomfortable life reviews for these so called Christians
