Answer:
No i do not trust Joe Starks because he suffers from an overdose of ambition, a lack of communication, a superiority complex, and uncontrollable jealousy over Janie. Joe mixes conceptions of manhood with his right to power, wealth, and authority. He considers himself perfectly justified not only in building up the town but ruling it, deciding who can live there and whose opinion counts. His high-handed tyranny of Eatonville often has the inhabitants grumbling and comparing him to white slave masters. Joe resembles a white slave master in more than one way.
