Introduction I’ve been dying to dig into this. For years, I’ve asked myself: Why can’t Trump’s followers see what’s right in front of them? Why do they defend him at all costs, no matter what he says or does? So I did the research. And what I found isn’t about policy or party—it’s about psychology. […]

Introduction Donald Trump recently suggested that it would be “difficult” to pardon Sean “Diddy” Combs because of past criticism. He admitted that while he considers Diddy “sort of half innocent,” the real obstacle isn’t the legal facts of the case—it’s personal history.
