(4) The Addicted Lover "shadow" form of the masculine Lover archetype of maturity.
Now, regarding Trump's many male MAGA fans, many of them may share exactly Trump's four "shadow" forms of the four masculine archetypes of maturity. However, some of them may not share all four of Trump's "shadow" forms.
Indeed, it is possible that some of Trump's many male MAGA supporters may not share one or perhaps two of Trump's four "shadow" forms of the masculine archetypes of maturity, substituting one or perhaps two of the bipolar opposite "shadow" forms.
For the King archetype of maturity, the two bipolar "shadow" forms are The Tyrant "shadow" form and The Weakling "shadow" form.
For the masculine Warrior/Knight archetype of maturity, the two bipolar "shadow" forms are The Sadist "shadow" form and The Masochist "shadow" form.
For the masculine Magician/Shaman archetype of maturity, the two bipolar "shadow" forms are The Detached Manipulator "shadow" form and The Denying "Innocent" One "shadow" form.
For the masculine Lover archetype of maturity, the two bipolar "shadow" forms are The Addicted Lover "shadow" form and The Impotent Lover "shadow" form.
For an accessible account of Robert Moore's theory of the masculine archetypes of maturity, see Robert Moore and Douglas Gillette's book King, Warrior, Magician, Lover: Rediscovering the Archetypes of the Mature Masculine (HarperSanFrancisco/ HarperCollins, 1990).
Now, the time has come for me to complete my profile of Trump with respect to the four feminine archetypes of maturity and their accompanying eight bipolar "shadow" forms in his psyche:
(1) The Weakling "shadow" form of the Queen archetype in his psyche;
(2) The Masochist "shadow" form of the feminine Warrior/Knight archetype of maturity in his psyche;
(3) The Detached Manipulator "shadow" form of the feminine Magician/Shaman archetype of maturity in his psyche;
(4) The Addicted Lover "shadow" form of the feminine Lover archetype in his psyche.
For a non-Jungian psychological analysis of Trump, see the American psychiatrist Justin A. Frank's book Trump on the Couch: Inside the Mind of the President (Avery/ Penguin Random House, 2018).
