NEVER TRUMPERS COULD CAUSE A STRONG THIRD PARTY

think some of them are faking it, like that British one that claims getting ten million real votes four years later means Trump was unpopular. Ain't seen nothing yet,

Other cults of personality:
Joseph Stalin
Adolf Hitler
Mao
Castro
Martin Luther King
Gandhi
Barack Obama
Donald Trump

correct list, except for the last four names. Of them, Obama came the closest to having a very loose "cult of personality" only because the MSM was on his side. MLK and Gandhi were more martyrs for their causes.

Cults of personality are serious things, dumbed-down definitions should be unwelcomed:

Cult of personality is a pejorative term implying the concentration of all power in a single charismatic leader within a totalitarian state and the near deification of that leader in state propaganda. Totalitarian regimes use the state-controlled mass media to cultivate a larger-than-life public image of the leader through unquestioning flattery and praise. Leaders are lauded for their extraordinary courage, knowledge, wisdom, or any other superhuman quality necessary for legitimating the totalitarian regime. The cult of personality serves to sustain such a regime in power, discourage open criticism, and justify whatever political twists and turns it may decide to take. Among the more infamous and pervasive cults of personality in the twentieth century were those surrounding Hitler, Mussolini, Stalin, Mao Zedong, Francisco Franco, Chiang Kaishek, Ho Chi Minh, Kim Il Sung, Juan and Evita Peron, Pol Pot, Augusto Pinochet, Kim Jong Il, and Saddam Hussein

I've been around politics all my life - Ron Paul, Howard Dean and Bernie also had hardcore supporters and are all different from each other as night and day.

Blind support is blind, so is blind hatred. Chill Jill.

Why is it that the trolls are so silly? Most of them seem to be very low information.

Because that is what it takes to engage in that behavior. Responding to them excites them and gives them the emotional high they are looking for. Its best not to feed their addiction.

I never thought of them as addicts as much as idiots. I always thought of them as paid by someone like Soros. Years ago my buddy had police info and caught one troll who was in prison and told him that his mind was in chains, also. Trolls never seem to have to work for a living, do they?

I am not sure about Franco. He was kinda stodgy in my opinion. Many Europeans considered the Germans as better than the Russians. Biden is a degenerate in my personal opinion.

I do. They arecaddicted to saying things purely to raise emotions. Hence the moniker troll. When they are successful they get fulfilled and want continued gratification. They just need to be ignored.

1,400,000 people signed up on a FB page created 2 weeks ago. They all look & sound like normal, wonderful, passionate for their country, Americans. Lots of smiles. They all know that Trump is not a perfect man, but he is the perfect man to stand up for the country they love, & they love him for it. It would be hard to find a man capable of taking every abuse that has been put on him, & his family, who perseveres & accomplishes amazing things, almost single handedly. But you hang your hat on his flaws, while belittling his supporters. Big of you.
The group is: Joe Biden is NOT MY PRESIDENT.

Sigh, many in Germany signed up to support Hitler. They were normal, wonderful and passionate for their country. Your argument is weak.
Have you read Machiavelli's "The Prince?" If so you can recognize that Donald Trump follows the textbook to the letter.

I recognize that I voted straight Republican Party, but God put a Democrat in the Presidency and I accept what God has done. I find both Pence and Sasse to be more Godly leaders than Trump. I would vote for either of them over Trump.

Not even Democrats like Biden or think that he was ever honest. You don’t become as rich as Biden on government pay. Biden has 5 mansions. He gropes little girls. He lies. He is a thief.

So...how is he different than Donald Trump? Do you think he has been an honest business man who hasn't lied and stolen to gain wealth?

and you proved Revmitchell right, you're just not worth the time. Denying something isn't proof of that something being true outside of troll world. Bye!

Rev has bought in to Trump as the cult of personality. It seems you have drank the kool-aid as well. Many who identify as Christians have set him up as an idol in their house.

777, your link on the cult of personality is very interesting but I would like to read your thoughts on Franco.

I absolutely agree. I also voted straight Republican Party. Had I not voted early, I probably would have abstained from casting a vote. Going forward I am not going to vote (not because of this election, I have been wrestling with this for years....this election solidified my decision).

Watching Congress and the Senate over the past few months I have been convicted that the GOP really is no better than the DNC when it comes to a political entity. It is all about power.

Each party accuses the other of abusing their power and ignoring the needs of the American people. And both parties are absolutely right on that point.

You want to keep throwing out the Hitler correlation, yet it is you & your fair weather friends who are content to look the other way & allow the atrocities to happen. In this case it is the abominable theft of your homeland, & the freedoms you think will always be there. It makes me angry to see losers stroke themselves. Back seat drivers. Armchair quarterbacks. People with no answers who enjoy telling people how brilliant they are. Boring.

Maybe the Rinos will leave the GOP and join the Pelosi wing of the Democrat Party. People such as Romney and Sasse have no future in the GOP because they are globalists. Also, the Trump-haters who support Pence need to realize that Pence is ruined by his association with Trump. Finally, if Trump is finished, the GOP is finished also.

I can’t imagine why you voted straight Republican.

Time for the so called Moral Majority to make noise again!
