They believe that he is muslim and when they find out that he isn’t there will be hell to pay.
Everyone is a “useful idiot” in his eyes. He is using his “supporters” and you’re right, they’ll wake up eventually.
I tend to believe that Øbongo is, at the very least, a borderline Sociopath. He never conveys any indication that he cares about anyone except himself.
Just like you say, he’s all about using people. Most of us on the right saw this train wreck coming a long way off so even when it disappoints or even disgusts us, it doesn’t surprise.
There are a crapload of people who did “buy the sizzle”, are getting screwed, and beginning to feel the sting. Look at all those folks in Georgia that expected to show up and get something for free. They got something alright - they got shafted. Our troops worked and died in Iraq and Iran and the natives came to expect something from us. They’re getting it now - screwed.
America’s traditional allies are being tossed under the bus, and our enemies are getting whispered sweet nothings. All of this heaped betrayal is going to figure badly for Øbongo - and the nation.
