In my personal experience Trump supporters are some of the most sensitive people I have ever had the displeasure of interacting with. I have been blocked by several Trumpsters on FB simply because I respectfully disagreed with them and linked to research. It’s a really interesting phenomenon.

Have you heard of the sunk cost fallacy? It's very interesting and I think it applies quite well to Trump supporters.

Is that the one where they've invested so much personally in Trump that to now recognise his awfulness seems to be more emotionally costly than to double down?
