spike in the sociopathic deviant scale. For example, lawyers, psychologists, people who grew up in the projects, AAs...in other words, street savvy people, who tend to distrust authority. Most people who have had much experience, or experiences, with authority figures have a healthy distrust. Most politicians are pretty savvy.

It would be hard to tease out some of the craziness, but maybe the paranoia, and delusions of grandeur would show. My bet is the average Joe Blow who voted for Trump kind of liked his delusions of grandeur...it flies in the face of Dem wonky fact checkers.
