Key Points: 
  • Another 30% believe the 2020 US presidential election was stolen from Donald Trump.
  • If these figures are anything to go by, a worrying number of Americans believe reality is not what it seems.
  • From this, Descartes set out to demolish any beliefs that weren’t “completely certain and indubitable”, and then to “start again from the ‘foundations’”.

Trump the messiah

  • However, instead of dismantling the deep state, Trump left the White House.
  • That was until November 2022, when Trump announced his 2024 presidential campaign.
  • After two years, QAnon’s messiah figure had returned and, since then, Trump has been galvanising QAnons to take the battle to the deep state once again.
