Trust in government isn't blind faith. It's the belief that public institutions are basically fair, lawful, and accountable—the thing that makes democracy function at all: voting, following laws, accepting election results, working together on public problems. Healthy distrust demands evidence and works through democratic channels; destructive cynicism assumes government is always corrupt and leads people to check out. Trust gets built when governments are transparent and accountable, and when citizens stay informed and engaged.
