Sharon Quinsaat, a sociologist at Grinnell College, wrote about her fieldwork with Trump supporters:
“Their sources of information are nothing we have never heard of. Yes, there is still that staple of Fox News and Newsmax. There’s also a lot reading Epoch Times, One America News, and Rumble. But I had a deep conversation with a Native Hawaiian (let’s call her Lily) who regards Trump as a demi-god. She showed me on her phone the stuff she reads and listens to everyday. I have never heard of them before, but we listened to them together. The conspiracy theories in these sites are WILD, to say the least. But she is convinced they are true.”
She concluded: “Lily and I are living in two different worlds.”
