"They don’t trust doctors and other medical experts when their very lives and that of their children are at stake. Many Americans would literally rather die than to trust.
They have been led down this path by a man who feeds their paranoia because it’s all he knows. It’s no wonder to me that Donald Trump is pursuing both a political and economic agenda of distrust."

"A large percentage of Americans don’t trust institutions unless their people control them, they don’t trust experts or the media or even basic facts unless they tell them what they already believe, and they don’t trust the Constitution unless it privileges them. They don’t trust people who are different from them, but they don’t even trust their family members if they aren’t part of their political tribe."

"America itself is rapidly unraveling as functioning society. We’ve lost an awful lot in the last 10 years (and the trends lines no doubt began long before the rise of Trump), but mostly what we’ve lost is trust."
