  1. The video highlighted the problem at 4:20. The health officials, just like politicans, speak in absolute truths. When they are wrong a few times, eg wearing masks is not necessary, it degrades the trust factor. The exact same thing happened at my work... I work in close proximity to people and the health officials were telling one group that it is necessary and others, like me, that it wasn't. It took a logical person with no medical knowledge to question upper management how it made sense. This sparked a change to be made and then the health official came back as saying "the science changed". Let's face it Trump is kind of a dolt. But when he talks about possible solutions and they slowly start becoming realistic, he gains credibility and for supporters it becomes like gospel.
