The Myth of Antiwar Trump

Revealed: Trump has launched as many air strikes in five months as Biden did in four years.
Despite pledging not to engage in conflict overseas, the US president has sharply escalated attacks.

The Psychology of Trump Voters

They're not following Trump because of what he does. They're following him because of how he makes them feel. Understanding it is the first step in breaking the spell.

By Jayne jayneconverse3 | June 27, 2025

https://www.tiktok.com/@jayneconverse3/video/7520454365123972365 (5 minutes: 36-second long video which is worth checking out)

I’ve been dying to dig into this. I’ve been asking myself why Trump’s followers can’t see reality. So I did my research, and I’m going to share it with you.

Let’s talk about the psychology behind the Trump Cult, because that’s what it is. It’s not a normal political movement anymore, it’s a cult of personality and if we want to fight it, we have to understand it. So, let’s break it down.

First, Trump doesn’t offer policies, he offers identity. He’s not popular because of what he does, but because of what he represents. To many of his followers, he’s a walking, talking middle finger to a system they believe has failed them.¹

They see him as “their guy,” not because he’s honest, not because he helps them, but because he talks like them, rages like them, and punches the people they’ve been told to blame for everything.²

In psychology, there’s a term for this: “Identity fusion.” It’s when your personal identity becomes fused with your group or leader. That’s why criticism of Trump feels like a personal attack to his supporters. It’s not just “he’s being criticized,” it’s “I’m being criticized.”

Second, he offers revenge, not solutions. He doesn’t promise to fix healthcare, or raise wages, or protect your rights; he promises to go after “them.” Whether it’s immigrants, the press, Black activists, LGBTQ people, liberals, college students, elites, anyone outside the tribe… that’s classic authoritarianism.

Give people a sense of loss, tell them who stole it, then promise to make them pay. And to some people, that rage, that promise of vengeance is more emotionally satisfying than actual policy. It doesn’t fix their problems, but it feels like power.

Third: People crave order, and Trump promises strength. When institutions fail, when you don’t trust the media, the courts, elections, schools³, you start to look for a savior: Someone who says, “Only I can fix it.” That’s why Trump acts like a strong man. He creates the crisis, then sells himself as the only one tough enough to stop it. He’s done that over and over and over again. He’s not leading a movement, he’s leading a dependency.

Fourth: His followers are trapped in an information bubble. They don’t just believe lies, they live inside them. Fox News, MAGA influencers, far-right churches, Trump’s own app Truth Social is a closed-loop ecosystem that tells them every day, “The elites hate you, the media lies, only Trump tells the truth.” 4 This is called “epistemic closure.” It’s cult logic. If Trump says it, it’s true. If the world says otherwise, the world is lying.

And then fifth: Shame is too powerful, so they double down, just like Trump does. Some Trump supporters know deep down that they’ve been conned. They’ve seen the cruelty, the corruption, the chaos, but they’ve already invested years of their identity into defending him.5 To walk away now would mean confronting shame, losing their community, admitting they were wrong, and that’s terrifying to them, so instead they dig in deeper.

And finally, and this one matters, Trump makes them feel seen. He tells them, “They’re not after me, they’re after you. I’m just in the way.” That line is emotional manipulation, but it works… because for millions of people who feel ignored, dismissed, mocked by elites, Trump says, “You matter. You’re not crazy, they are.” He gives them belonging, and in a country where loneliness is rising and inequality is everywhere, belonging is everything.

So when people ask, “Why do people love him? Why would they follow him off a cliff?” it’s not just politics, it’s psychology, it’s identity, and it’s fear. This is deliberate. Trump didn’t create the cult, he just saw the cracks in our society and weaponized them.

But here’s the thing: not everyone in that cult is unreachable. Some are too far gone, but others are on the edge, quiet, doubting, hurting. We don’t get them back with facts, we get them back by offering something Trump never will: real community, real care, and real solutions. Because people don’t join cults when they are happy and secure. They join when they are scared, isolated, and desperate for meaning.

So here’s your call to action: Keep speaking truth, keep exposing the con, and when you can, offer people a way out that doesn’t begin with shame, but with dignity. This fight isn’t just about defeating Trump, it’s about breaking the spell and building something better in it’s place. That’s how we get them in, that’s how we get them to abandon him.

Let’s do it.

The author of this article has a cult- like belief about a so- called "Trump cult", but I haven't seen any evidence of it. The fact that people are questioning the Epstein case points to continuing reaction against anything that looks like gaslighting, even if it's by Trump.

Seems to me that overall, Trump voters are more skeptical than Biden* or Harris voters, who still believe everything the MSN publishes.

SECOND is a case in point. He obsessively trolls the inet for anti-Trump, anti-Republiczn, or anti-Russian stories and obsessively reposts them here.

I don't see any Trump voters here with that level of slavishness.

Is the reason why Trump is sucking up to Lindsay Graham and Mitch McConbel so hard is bc he's trying to "impeach-proof" himself?

Recent polling suggests African American voters, already more disapproving of Trump than other demographic groups, have been souring on the president. Decision Desk HQ aggregates find more than 70 percent disapprove of his job performance, while around a quarter approve, putting him in one of the weakest positions with the group since returning to the White House.

Newsweek's analysis of major surveys since April shows his approval among Hispanic and Latino voters has dropped to 40 percent, with 56 percent disapproving—down from March averages of 43 percent approval and 54 percent disapproval. YouGov's data mirrors this trend, showing Trump's net approval plummeting from -12 in January to -32 in May.

Only 37% of independents approve of Trump’s overall job performance. Just 26% of independent voters support Trump’s ‘One Big Beautiful Bill Act (OBBBA).’ Additionally, 52% of independents are less likely to support the OBBBA after hearing concerns about the bill’s potential to significantly increase the debt and deficit – which is a priority for independent voters. And roughly 60% of independent voters approve of elected officials who are able to overcome political tensions and work across the aisle with the opposing party.

And it’s only gotten worse. If republicans lose the house and senate yes, Trump will be impeached and removed. And he knows it.

Being sued by the Goose Creek School District for real estate taxes they didn't pay? Signym, you'd say it is fake news. I pick national news that you can verify from your desktop computer in Russia. The one good thing in my local Trumptards' lives is that Trump is the only President who can fix it for them.

Yup.

The only cultlike behavior on display here is the two idiots who continue to say whatever the headlines read on any given day no matter who is President, and no matter how foolish they look in retrospect when those headlines are consistently proven false.

No. What you post isn't "news". You select rumor, opinion, and lies. Mostly fact-free, all against Republicans, Trump, and Russia.

I never saw you post that Biden was mentally compromised, for example. THAT was newsworthy fact.

Never saw you pursue the information in the Biden laptop ("and ten percent for the big guy").

You pursued RUSSIA!TRUMP!COLLUSION! as if it was real.

A level of slavishness exhibited only by you and THGR.

If you want to start somewhere, why don't you stop telling big fat whoppers?

Yanno, while I wonder WTH is going on with Trump*, I feel that he has the right to call his (former) supporters "weaklings".

I would guarantee that only a vanishingly small number of his supporters have EVER faced the constant villification; endless, relentless investigations on false pretenses; lawfare; and attempted assassination like he has.

I think people have unrealistic expectations of what one man can do, even if he is the President of tge USA. He's faced more and done more than most people would dream of doing in 1000 lifetimes. Where's the gratitude for what he's done so far?

*I'm wondering if he has PTSD. It can really warp your perceptions and reactions. If he did, I wouldn't be surprised. He has good advisors, I just wish he'd listen to them more often.

You got people like Adam Schiff wearing that shit eating grin that he hasn't had on his face for over 6 months because he finally has something to talk about, as if they didn't have 4 years to release those files themselves, or they surely would have used it against Trump if there was anything inside of them that could have put him away before election day.

I'm willing to wait this one out. I don't believe him when he says that there's nothing there, of course, but that is what he would need to say in public if he was sitting on them until right before an election and/or he was blackmailing foreign leaders with it right now.

Idiot YouTubers need to stop talking about it. I don't think a lot of voters actually are, just because of how much good is happening right now. It's just the extremists on either side and the opportunistic media and Democrat politicians who would never release it themselves who are talking about it today.

This one may persist a bit longer than most other issues, but it will eventually be forgotten when the next big thing comes along. It always does.

I think it very much has to do with protecting Mossad and possibly the CIA. If people got the idea that a Mossad asset was allowed to rape American children, and to set up the rape of American children for Israel's benefit, I think they'd be royally angry. As they should be.

Just to show how complicit DC is, Ghislaine Maxwell said she's ready to testify, but not a single Congressperson has asked for her. It's not just Trump.

"A Treasonous Conspiracy" - DNI Gabbard Exposes Obama At Center Of Trump 'Russia Hoax'
Friday, Jul 18, 2025 - 01:40 PM

Director of National Intelligence, Tulsi Gabbard, has declassified documents revealing "overwhelming evidence" showing how then-President Barack Obama and his national security team laid the groundwork for what would become the years-long Trump-Russia collusion investigation after President Trump won the 2016 election.

Americans will finally learn the truth about how in 2016, intelligence was politicized and weaponized by the most powerful people in the Obama Administration to lay the groundwork for what was essentially a years-long coup against President Trump, subverting the will of the American people and undermining our democratic republic.

Here’s how:

For months preceding the 2016 election, the Intelligence Community shared a consensus view: Russia lacked the intent and capability to hack U.S. elections.

But weeks after President Trump’s historic 2016 victory defeating Hillary Clinton, everything changed.

On Dec 8, 2016, IC officials prepared an assessment for the President's Daily Brief, finding that Russia "did not impact recent U.S. election results" by conducting cyber attacks on infrastructure.

Before it could reach the President, it was abruptly pulled “based on new guidance.” This key intelligence assessment was never published.

The next day, top national security officials including FBI Dir James Comey, CIA Dir John Brennan and DNI James Clapper gathered at the Obama White House to discuss Russia.

Obama directed the IC to create a new intelligence assessment that detailed Russian election meddling, even though it would contradict multiple intelligence assessments released over the previous several months.



Yep, Obama was a lying weasel.

Quote:

Obama officials immediately leaned on their allies in the [mainstream] media to advance their falsehoods.

Anonymous IC sources leaked classified [mis]information to the Washington Post and others that Russia had intervened to hack the election in Trump's favor.
