The "Cult" is real.

[kentuck]

But it is unprincipled, immoral, and wrong.

Tony Soprano was entertaining. But he was a mobster. He murdered people. He was not someone to look up to as a role model.

Donald Trump is entertaining in a similar way. He has no principles. He is immoral and he is wrong.

But the "cult" loves him. It's like the circus when he comes to town. Everybody dresses for the occasion.

The "cult" doesn't care what he does or what he has done. They worship him. The attack upon our Capitol on January 6th was no big deal. Paying off a porn star to keep her quiet just before the election was a smart thing to do. Stealing military secrets and hiding them in his mansion, including nuclear secrets, doesn't phase them in the least.

They are unAmerican and unpatriotic. They do not love their country or they would protect it from people like Donald Trump. Their support of immoral actions makes them immoral, also. They do not respect any other opinion. And they do not deserve the respect of anyone that has fought for this country or knows someone that has fought and died for this country. They are the dregs of humanity.

1. Donald Trump is way more than immoral and wrong

Donald Trump is a present threat to our national security. Donald Trump is a traitor to the United States, for money. Donald Trump most likely got our foreign agents killed. Donald trump has not returned all of the classified documents he stole, most likely made copies of the ones he returned.

Damn, I wish something had been done sooner. Time for me to post another thread.

2. American version of The Moonies.

Moon was also immoral and a grifter. And a religious hypocrite.

3. It's an abuser's bacchanal and it's all about them

[Ligyron]

6. Had to look bacchanal up. "Drunken and frivolous revelry".

Learn something everyday, Thanks.

9. +1

Good description.

[vlyons]

4. They envy Trump and want to be just like him

Rich enough to do whatever they please. Lie, cheat, steal. Call their perceived enemies ugly names. Then there's the racism and misogyny. Ruin people's lives, who don't do their bidding.

5. The difference between the Orange Magat and Jim Jones is he has yet to add cyanide in the kool-ade

7. I just visited some family members who adore Trump.

An elderly aunt and cousins.

I have not seen them for years, but my aunt is 94 and I wanted to go see her before she died.

She and her children (my cousins) think Trump is great.
He is unfairly prosecuted because he is so brilliant and good.

Then they start bashing Biden and Obama with the most outrageous lies.
I won't repeat them, some of them are disgusting.

They listen to Fox News for a couple of hours every day.
I won't repeat the garbage spewed there, it blew my mind.

After 24 hours of this nonsense, I said no more politics.
No more Fox News while I am here. No more bashing Democrats, etc.
The rest of the visit was lovely.

8. Good for you

for setting those boundaries.

[Irish_Dem]

10. ...

It is my mother's family and my dyed in the wool Dem father always said
they were the salt of the earth but they were damn republicans. So I was prepared
to be shocked, but it was worse than I thought.

I also could not get over how much projection there is on the part of the cult members.
It is the Democrats who are going to end democracy and install a fascist government, etc etc.
The GOP is committing no crimes. Unbelievable.

[Warpy]

12. They hate this country and everyone in it

and, oh boy, do those people love to hate!

[JanLip]

15. And they gripe and complain

About everything. They are self centered, hypocritical, think they’re better than anyone else, I just don’t have any patience with them anymore. I decided if they try to vote the orange baboon in the next election I am done with them. And yes they are hate filled.

[flying_wahini]

13. Yes, they are all of those things.

Some of them are in my family.
Even if the scales fall from their eyes they will NEVER admit they were wrong about him, either.

Never.

[JanLip]

16. Yes!!!

Nailed it.

[Joinfortmill]

14. And they've been hiding in plain sight for a long time.

[Cyrano]

17. The cult consists of incredibly stupid, easily manipulated people

I can't comprehend how any Trump lover graduated from kindergarten.

[Pototan]

18. Charlie Manson, Jim Jones, David Koresh...

...that's the company you're in if you are part of the Trump Cult.

[Skittles]

19. I did not find Tony Sprano "entertaining"

I thought he was disgusting.
