Love this piece and the logic. TY! "Conservatives are often portrayed as un-cosmopolitan .... having a foreigner confirm your views can lend a patina of sophistication and credibility. Moreover, movements that care about growing .... are susceptible to infiltration."

The last part is especially true. If someone wanted to infiltrate a political campaign in desperate need of volunteers, or an aging church that yearns for young members, they would be welcomed with open arms.

what we've seen especially with trump supporters is the ability to suspend critical thinking in order to believe what they want to believe is true.

Sincerely not trying to be snarky here. I think a lot of his supporters don’t have critical thinking skills. So it is easy for them to be taken advantage of. Trumps skills in this area also appear suspect. They all tend to respond emotionally which also hinders crit thinking.

Nope. It's the victim mentality. The everywhere are enemies mentality. It cultivates the desire to latch onto anyone that will support you. Like "fight or flight" it hinders critical analysis of why someone wants to help you.

Lol, I’m laughing, I quit crying long ago over Trump’s slaughter of everything conservatives once ‘claimed’ to value. Additionally, alleged conservatives truly are suckers to buy the absolute bull shite which Trump peddles.

You’re late to this dance. ‘Conservatives’ being suckers is basically the Fox News business model.

My personal experience has been..I cannot have a productive Trump conversation with friends and family who support him, BECAUSE..they are convinced that any factual/negative comment I make, is a lie propagated by the fake media. Nothing is accomplished through conversation. SAD

All these big, strong, smart conservative men fell for the pretty lady saying pretty things and the man offering awards and never once stopped to ask a question. "I am a white conservative man so all this praise must be true!"
