This lady says "if Trump loses in 2024, I hope I die"

Lots of folks like to make the argument that the size of MAGA rallies mean he's way more popular than Biden. That is wrong. These are cultists. Biden voters on the other hand are not in a cult. They're not Dead Heads touring the country with the band to hear a fresh new solo from Phil Lesh. They're just normal people who don't have time for dumb political rallies.

This lady has devoted her entire life to Trump. Literally.

I agree. There is something cultish there.

One man's journey down the rabbit hole. There will be some personal connection for each one, maybe different in detail, but broadly similar: a sense of entitlement, of having been cheated out of an entitlement, some personal grievance, and a sense of powerlessness. Those are the people drawn to cult figures who arouse people's anger by touching on exactly that sense of personal entitlement and of having been cheated out of it. Trump himself is the posterboy for angry entitlement of having been cheated; he oozes self-righteous resentment, and that is his peculiar charismatic attraction. This sort of cult also tends to attract people who have underdeveloped critical thinking skills.

The Lemming instinct is alive and well I see. I'm sure some of her friends found those Jewish space lasers that were zapping the western US, causing wildfires. 🙄

CultISH? It is a full blown cult, not cultISH. Not LIKE a cult, an actual everyone else is damned CULT. My own sister is one of them, I asked her would she support her god king Trump if he was convicted, she said, YES, the courts are corrupt, and of course it doesn't matter it is an independent bunch of random citizens who render the verdict based on actual evidence but they too are corrupt......
What the HELL do you do or say to people like?

Probably lemon-lime. Cheap bastards.

Your eyes are brown, man. You have not one thing to present to the Forum about the zero rallies of Biden. Party allegiance aside, let us discuss why one man draws thousands, while the other does not. A simple question.
Why don’t you fellers ask me a question ? You don’t answer questions. Why is that?

I think Biden doesn't do rallies because he has a pretty demanding job. He's busy.

It’s not guy with the biggest circus show who wins. It’s the one with the most votes. (Except in America—where it’s the one with EC in his pocket.)

“Why does Trump draw big crowds?” Isn’t the pertinent question. The pertinent question is, what sort of people are drawn to a cartoon cult figure ?

The Republican Party sure has changed. Remember when they used to talk about the "Silent Majority"?

Yup.

Then it was the Moral Majority.

It is neither now.

No, several speaking engagements between naps is not ‘busy. How do you think he will fare in the war room? Hey, google Biden Bad Decisions For Years. And he has more political experience than anyone in Washington DC. Look that up too.
This man has ruined the country. Or, more specifically, his handlers have. Think of that, people running this country, who we are not even aware of.
Do you like that Tlaib Culturalist.? Would you like to live under her ideas and her projected policies?
