What Personality Research Reveals about Trump Supporters (Can you say the word 'aggressive'?)
nat review ^ | 4/5/16 | Marc Cenedella

Posted on 04/06/2016 6:10:26 AM PDT by doldrumsforgop

They tend to share some particular traits. At Knozen, the personality site that I founded, we ask millions of personality questions each month of our more than 1 million users. Given the grip the Trump phenomenon has exerted on the American attention span, we wanted to see the personality differences (and similarities) between those who said they were and were not likely to vote Trump. Digging into the specific answers of more than 4,000 users, we found five differences and some similarities between Trump supporters and non-supporters. The specific results are indicated in bold below and are based on responses to more than 700,000 questions including “are you likely to vote for Trump?” According to Knozen’s personality research, Trump supporters are:Much more outgoing and organizedLess confident, less patient, much less shy, and . . . Very, very aggressive compared with non-supporters. We also found that Trump supporters are:Three times as likely to speak only one language,Twice as likely to have sold something in order to pay off a debt, and . . . Half as likely to be afraid of large crowds. Twice as likely to have cheated on someone, but . . . Half as likely to cheat on a board game.

I’m okay with passion, but Trump’s Unofficial Handler / Attck dog is stirring the pot and he needs to reconsider the consequences of his “alinsky agitation”

This article is meaningless and absurd to the nth degree.

Cruz supporters and democrats could have very likely taken this scam test.

But with sCruzifers this looks like hard research. Heck the creator of this could very well be and probably is a democrat.

Reading the article it seems DJT supporters are either able or not able, likely or not likely to do just about anything - like most people. There is no real conclusion to be drawn as far as I could see from the “findings.”

Although I was never attacked on FR by a Cruz supporter ... is that scientific? Nope. But then again where are the DJT supporters claiming vicious ad hominum attacks by Cruz supporters or by Kasich Supporters?

It should be “you’re or you are” not your.

Typical sCruzbot. What time did you get to to sCurz campaign office this morning?

So essentially, Cruz supporters are limp-wristed sissies?

Well, since they never give the "other side" in comparison, I'll say this is a balderdash article.

Aggressive? Yeah, I've met some pretty nasty people at FR, but others I've corresponded with...and the few people I know personally that support Trump... are just common, every day Americans, who are concerned about the United States financial future, and think Trump can correct that problem.

What do we have in common? We all love our country, and want to correct the damage caused by Obama and crew. We just disagree, during the primary season, on which candidate will do the best job.

Agreed !
But 'name calling' without and policy or program substance will not endure.
That is why I am looking forward to substance and policy comming from both candidates.
'Name calling' is so juvenile, so let's see some substance in policy, procedures, and Constitutional implementation .

I would agree with you characterization of Trumpsters except that when the derangement syndrome sets in they throw common sense out the window. It is unfortunate because many times these are otherwise reasonable, intelligent folks.

If you bothered to look, you would find them. Like the Cruz supporter who damned every Trump supporter to eternal torment in Hell.

But people won't see what they don't want to see.

The fact is that this should’ve been a two man race a long time ago. They should get out there on the debate floor and hash out substance for everyone in America to see on television. And whomever comes out the winner, will easily have a united group of Americans in support of the said candidate.

That’s what I got from the article as well....that Cruz supporters need a safe space.

And KaSICK supporters need therapy........

No Pointless Aggression from the Trump Camp at all........ ???? An unidentified caller? I would be suspicious of this, it sounds staged. Could be someone on Soros’s payroll trying to make the Trump look worse. This is not a Trump tactic, he doesn’t hire crazies to make cheap threats, he uses Lawyers.
