I don't really like any of these candidates but I guess Trump is still the best pick right now:

Reactions: Your Weird Fetish
Alright I'm gonna livepost my experience with this foolishness:

0. Even before clicking the link, I can't help but notice "I side with", and seem to recall something about "I side with her" in reference to Hillary, but I could be misremembering.
1. Immediately upon loading the site, I am assaulted with an image of Hillary Clinton, on an ultra blue background. Hmmm
2. As I go through answering questions, I've come across two about "Taxing the rich", one general, one for specific programs...
3. OK I finished, for some reason there's a slow "Processing" step where something counts up from 0-100%. There's no way it takes this long to "process" the answers to 20 questions, obviously this is to pretend it's doing something fancy.

So I answered as honestly as possible with multiple choices. It gave me donald trump as the top pick, and gives the option to see which of your responses match and which disagree with trump's supposed stances (Nothing stood out to me as being wrong, but there was clearly some paraphrasing).

I got trump at 68%, for: Confidence, Toughness, Business Experience, and Anthropocentrism(This stood out as odd to me).
I got 45% for john delaney, a democrat, for Socialism and Environmentalism. Lol what? But then after going through why, I did match him on a number of things. Although seemingly nothing related to socialism or environmentalism... So the candidates seem to make sense, but the qualities... less so.
Then the list goes:
Kasich 45%
Tulsi Gabbard 42%
And then like everyone else at lower percents.

I also notice some of the candidates i matched with have "Right wing" as a description, and some have "Left wing". So I'm wondering if those are just tags for that particular candidate, rather than a reason you were matched.

I came away from it thinking no, it's not trying to push you toward the dems, and maybe it is trying to push you toward trump. Not sure, I'd be interested to see other people's results.

Granted there aren't too many politicians in there right now. I'd wait till closer to 2020 when more people have entered the race.
Aren't there like a half dozen more Dems that have announced their run already? I got 65% Gaysich and 64% Trump lol and scored out of the park on both Individualism and Nationalism.
 
I got trump at 68%, for: Confidence, Toughness, Business Experience, and Anthropocentrism(This stood out as odd to me).

What does anthropocentrism have to do with anything? That trait isn't even listed on the other candidates as far as I'm aware. Of all the traits they could have given Trump, this one feels very out of place.

Is it a subtle way to say that all other beings aside from humans are inferior and have no importance? When has this ever come up? Doesn't seem to make much sense in the context of this quiz.

I'm just glad that all the collectivism candidates are at rock bottom in my list. Collectivism is the root of so much evil in this world, yet people seem to not realize how dangerous it can be. The same people who label stereotypes as hate crimes are the same people who think identity groups all share the same beliefs and values. Simply sickening and dehumanizing.
