Summary

In this chapter, we review our empirical evidence for the premises of our framework through path analyses of cross-sectional data and longitudinal analyses of the deep state belief over the impeachment trial. Afterwards, we present our results on the sources of plausibility of conspiracy beliefs and the role of unfalsifiability.
