Interesting perspective on Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs and the Trump supporters. Something to think about.
My cousin and his wife are two of the nicest people you'd ever want to meet. She, in particular, is an evangelical Christian and a Trump supporter. During the election cycle she would post strange memes about "The truth will come out" (Strange, because Trump is decidedly not a paragon of truth). She might represent another segment of Trump voters. She has all her basic needs met, and she and my cousin are talented and smart. Yet, yesterday, she posted a video on our family group page on FB of a Trumpster claiming that 3 busses lined up in Washington were Antifa members brought in by no other than the Secret Service.
I can understand how it's impossible to completely trust the government. I don't want to know all the shady dealings that go on in Washington. But to trust Trump OVER the government is something I don't really understand.
