I don’t get how many people just jump aboard the cult of personality.

I fear 2008 all over again. I do hope I’m wrong though.

I wish real Americans would wake up and realize too that the country can’t be fixed by man. People need to turn their hearts to God.

Don’t doubt for a minute that a lot of Americans have been praying for this day to come.

I agree, prayer to Christ works for me. And I like Trump.

Obama wee not vetted by the msm. It was a cult of personality

Trump has been scrutinized for decades. Even has childhood friends that are still friends speak out about his life. There are 20 30 year old videos of him being interviewed or speaking in front of congress laying out how their actions hurt the economy

If you think his followers only are following his public persona you haven’t bothered to research the REAL Donald Trump

It is your failing not theirs

Personality is one of the major factors that people are
attracted to in any of the candidates.

the cult of personality.

I hear that term a lot.

I'll tell you: I like what Trump says. I like his plans. I like his proven ability to build teams, negotiate great deals, delegate authority effectively, and lead large organizations.

Immigration, taxes, guns, abortion, political correctness, government bureaucracy -- he's saying all the right things to me.

But some folks just see it as a "personality cult".

I wonder, how did you deduce that trump is not God’s instrument?

The BIG difference is that Obama never had any personality cult to begin with and he never accomplished anything but getting any opponents disqualified or pulling out by getting sealed court records unsealed.

Are you going to deny that Trump has a long history of getting things done?

The politicians are scum because we are scum. Until the people decide they want to follow God, and do something about it, we will continue the downward spiral. I will not be surprised if the people elect a Bernie Sanders.

That's what they don't want to hear.

When I see God on the ballot I’ll think about it. Until then... Go Trump!

That’s what folks were saying about Reagan in 1980.

I do not think Trump is Reagan. I know Trump loves his country and wants to undo damage that the DiC has done

Just like those guys in the orange jump suits, kneeling at the sea shore, in front of the guys in black with the black ski masks and the sharp knives?

“I don’t get how many people just jump aboard the cult of personality.”

Names should be taken.
In 4 years; those supporters will have vanished from here.
Maybe even in just a year.

There once was a man caught in a flood. He couldn’t get out of his house, and a rowboat came along. The man refused to leave, saying God would save him. The water got to the roofline and the man climbed onto his roof. Another rowboat came by but the man refused to leave, saying God would save him. Finally, with water up to his neck, a helicopter came by but the man refused to leave, saying God would save him. The man drowned. In heaven, he said, “God, I trusted you to save me and you didn’t”. God answered, “What do you want me to do? I sent you two rowboats and a helicopter”.

Maybe, just maybe, God is sending Trump when we need him the most.

Trump 2016 isn't Obama 2008. Your fears are understandable, but sometimes God provides in surprising ways.

Ted Cruz has quite the cult of personality going for him too.

I think we are going to see that with most national political figures.

For instance, the cult of personality around Ronald Reagan is such that even today, posting something bad about him here will immediately draw hundreds of impassioned responses.
