        I talked to a supporter today. They're irrational. Asked if Trump is a good man, he asked "what is good, anyway?" Wish I was kidding

        Nooo, that means 2 things: 1) he knows what "good" is, and he knows Trump ain't it. And... 2) he's learned from Trump how to avoid answering a question.

        He IS a cult leader. Not all cults are religious. His is the classic Cult of Personality, or, more accurately, a Cult of Warped Personality. Turds of a feather flush together, so, we get cults. Humanity rocks.

        I think he is more the the Hale-Bopp comet and his followers are like the Heavens Gate members. Trump is mindlessly flying around with people worshiping him to their own peril.

        Not a simile. He is a cult leader. It's just that his cult is spread all over the country.

        Yes, the kind of cult leader that drawls Evangelicals into his jungle.

        Seems so, after one has a discussion with his followers. Not an intelligent conversation, mind you, as there most likely is no such thing

        Interesting thought, I could see how trump is like a cult leader. These trumpsters see trump representing them, the angry little people. They misunderstand his bullying as strength. It isn't. He is weak & insecure. If you stand up to him, he folds.
