"A Nation of Sheep Will Believe a Trump" is a brilliant book that examines the fate of American democracy and its survival against the backdrop of millions of people who are so easily impressed by misleading news outlets, fake social media and manipulative influencers so that they start believing in concepts and theories that hurt & minimize their own daily lives and freedoms. They live in an airtight sealed bubble of false information which is devoid of any reality. The book enumerates various reason for why so many people believe pure falsehoods. Author, Arun K. Govil (Aron Govil) discusses the Dunning Kruger effect, for why a certain part of the country's population has developed a Sheep Mentality and become more susceptible to be influenced by manipulative and fake news outlets that promote racially divisive rhetoric. Psychologists Justin Kruger and David Dunning explained in their research that certain people have a blind spot that makes them overestimate their knowledge, especially in those areas which are alien to them. The book goes into great detail as to which people are more susceptible to Dunning Kruger effect and how they lose the ability to make political decisions for their own benefit. The book also details what safeguards can be added against the dangers posed to American values and democracy by ignorant voters.
