    I think a big part of it is that it takes some intellectual humility to admit when you’ve been duped.

    For a party of anti-intellectuals, this would mean accepting that everyone who had been calling out Trump as a lying criminal was right.

    It’s easier for those who’ve dug-in to double-down than to face that kind of reckoning.
