Damn fools: Doomsday preppers are thinning out across the US, and it may be because President Trump quiets their fears

Doomsday preppers– people who prepare and stockpile for society-upending disasters both natural and manmade – have been on the rise in the US in recent decades.
British criminology professor Michael Mills travels throughout the US, meeting and staying with preppers to find out more about their motivations.
Preppers have various reasons for their stashes, but Mills told Business Insider that “prepping’s a mostly kind of right-wing culture.”
Preppers and prepper businesses say sales are down in the Trump era. It’s another indicator of what psychologists have been documenting for a long time: fear drives conservative views, and prepper stockpiles, too.
