    Default Explain Trump

    He has never told the truth in his life. He's a proven con man. He routinely stiffed contractors and other businesses on payments. He made fun of a disabled guy. He disparaged POW's and the military. He hates women. He swindled supporters out of hard-earned cash with a classic fine-print grift that automated contributions. He insulted the wives, fathers and other family of allies in his own party. He incited an insurrection with lies. He led the bogus and racist birther movement.

    He's a pathetically insecure man, with no real vision or courage. We've never had someone with such a frail ego leading a national party.

    Generally, when a candidate loses a Presidential election, their party moves on without looking back. That candidate is usually marginalized and forgotten.

    But not Trump. As Graham stated, there really is no GOP without him anymore. The party is a cult of personality.

    Why is that? Can anyone explain Trump?

    Sure, he is a fascist. The GOP is embracing fascism.

    Your party no longer has a lay form

    All that is left is a demand to back every trump lie without flinching


    If would be hilarious if trump started telling you guys to wear special googles (that he sells of course) that help you see martians in the dark


    Then told you all to sleep during the day to avoid the scanners liberals have aimed at their brains


    We would have trumpets leaving the world alone and stumbling around at night with blacked out googles night



    Kicking out anyone from your party who doesn’t repeat the required lies won’t grow your party


    Trump has NEVER had even 50% of the peoples vote

    He lost you the house and senate and lost his last election


    So the Republican solution is to shrink their party


    And try to destroy the American peoples trust in elections


    Brilliant

    Oh, and as for the "MAGA" movement - it's just a lot of folks who are afraid of the ever-nearing date when whites become a minority in America.

    The record number of Hispanics that voted for Trump worry about whites becoming a minority?

    He’s a product of his environment, an ill and detached mother and an overbearing narcissistic father. Nobody cuddled him when he was young.

    See how that works out for ya.
    A cult of personality, or cult of the leader, arises when a country's regime – or, more rarely, an individual – uses the techniques of mass media, propaganda, the big lie, FAKE NEWS, CONSPIRACY THEORIES, MILITARY PARADES, spectacle, the arts, RELIGION, patriotism, and government-organized demonstrations and rallies to create an idealized, heroic, and worshipful image of a leader, often through unquestioning flattery and praise. A cult of personality is similar to apotheosis, except that it is established by modern social engineering techniques, usually by the state or the party in one-party states and dominant-party states. It is often seen in totalitarian or authoritarian countries.

    CULT- a misplaced or excessive admiration for a particular person or thing.

    they try to marginalize him, but they cant for the same reason he was elected. "America First".
    we can already see how important that is compared to Bidens agenda:
    of defacto open borders,
    inability to confront China on trade (instead just focusing on human rights)
    wage growth for lower wage earners ( unlike Obama)
    and peace accords in the ME -for starters.. oh and of course getting vaccines in record time
