Summary of Steven Hassan's The Cult of Trump

Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book.

Book Preview:

#1 Trump’s first cabinet meeting was bizarre and unsettling. The country had already witnessed the almost daily onslaught of bizarre and contradictory statements and behavior coming from the Trump White House, but this should have been different.

#2 Trump’s cabinet members may not have been passionate followers when they first met Trump, but they were still tied to him due to the immense power they could potentially have.

#3 Cult leaders and regimes exert their power in a systematic fashion. They control information, and people learn to trust only the publications and news that come from the group itself. They create impossible standards of performance, and members feel guilty and ashamed if they don’t meet them.

#4 Trump’s supporters are typically those who are absolute, black-and-white, and thought-stopping in their thinking. They learn a new vocabulary that conforms to group ideology.
