RE: This Is What Happens When You Put An Idiot In Charge of a Complex System

I saw a segment on the news that even farmers who are hurting because of the tariffs still support him. Not sure how representative that is. I see that and the tendency of Republicans to believe Trump over other sources of information as different from any anti-intellectual trend. A couple of things, beyond what you've mentioned. Trump has a lot of support from religious and conservatively religious voters, and they tend to be poorer, as well as significantly anti-intellectual. Also, as a mattter of values, conservatives are more group oriented and authoritarian oriented than the left, so they'll prefer in-group to out-group stronger than a hypothetical partisan of the left.
