I know this is "unscientific" and not supportable with actual facts, but---
---haven't we all met someone to whom we took an almost instant dislike? If asked why, we probably couldn't say much more than "I dunno---just SOMETHING---bad vibes!"
THAT was my instant reaction to Alito when I first saw him on TV during his confirmation hearing. "Something" just nearly made the hairs on my neck stand up and said "Watch out! This skeevy sonofabitch is an arrogant phony devoid of empathy!" To this day, a photo of him makes my lip start to curl in disgust.
I have never mentioned this before because I know it sounds like a perfectly ridiculous way to assess a person.
But, there it is.

I generally let people prove whether they are assholes rather than conclusion-jump. I will admit that some assholes prove what they are within 1 or 2 seconds, which comes close to instantly. Thankfully, I have never had more than one or two assholes among the people I deal with more or less daily, and often, none.
