You called it, Gillian. Trump and his ilk (Milo, Spencer, etc.) thrive on their ability to invoke. Beliefs and knowledge take a back seat, which is why they are so capable of munging the facts and changing their tune when confronted.

He simply knows how to push the buttons, especially of the well-intentioned people who care about beliefs and knowledge.
