Similar Stories to Trump Voters Are Selfish: They Love Him Because They Identify With Him on Bing News

(Credit: Getty/Bill Wechter) The political corpse that is and was the 2016 presidential election continues to reveal its secrets. The newest revelation? Donald Trump’s public supported an incompetent, ignorant bigot and possible traitor largely out of greed and selfish impulses. In his new article, “Personal values and support for Donald Trump during the 2016 US presidential primary,” published in the journal Personality and Individual Differences, psychologist Ryne Sherman explains “a prototypical Trump supporter” as someone with “little interest in supporting social welfare programs,” “a strong desire for power,” “a strong desire to make money,” various “concerns about personal and financial safety” and a “preference for strictly adhering to social conventions (i.e., order, structure, and following the chain of command).” Sherman concludes that “values perceived to be shared with Donald Trump” were “a key driver of support” during the 2016 primaries.
