No, I don’t claim supporting Trump is a cult - I say that anyone who claims that Trump is the only person who can “save the country” and who will stay home, write in Trump or even vote Dem if Trump is not the nominee is part of a cult. Their devotion is to a man, not to the country or even to a set of principles. I did not support Trump in 2016 but supported him in 2020. I don’t see Trump winning the general election because although his base is still enthusiastic about him, the squishy GOP, independents, suburban women and crossover Dems who got him the win in 2016 are firmly against him. I think if Trump is the nominee, there are a lot of people who voted for him previously that will not vote for the Dem, but just will not vote at all. Trump on the ballot will energize the Dem vote, however.
“When you associate principles or even a political philosophy with only one person, that becomes cultish. That is what the Trump movement has become - a personality cult.”
“No, I don’t claim supporting Trump is a cult”
gee, that sounds EXACTLY like what you were claiming!
