    ..and praising Manchin for his principled stance, while decrying Republicans who also buck the party line. We need more of that, not less.

      Another one who refuses to kiss the shoes of President Trump.

      It is funny how pretty much everybody in the US (on both sides) rejects the cult of personality that is present in Russia and the mainland China, but there is a not small portion of the US that turns blindness when it comes to accepting President Trump and his cult of personality. 🤷

      That statement is not just ridiculous, it is a look down your nose at the motivations of those who support Trump.

      There is no "cult of personality". That's just dumb. Trump supporters are Trump supporters because Trump stood up for the things we value. And he did a damned fine job of protecting those things, too.

      Your post is so full of leftwing brainwashed nonsense it would be a total waste of time to try to educate you. You've bought into the leftwing propaganda too hard.

        So...The Republican Party of Alaska is not supporting her and the general public is fixing to boot her out of office, and this is because she won't kiss Trump's shoes?

          As far as I can tell, the Trump supporters on this board have done a fair job of establishing that their preference for Trump, over his opposition, was based on policy rather than TG's claim of cult-based.

          As far as rejecting Russian or Chinese cults of personality, America largely doesn't, except in the abstract of rejecting their systems of authoritarian government. Most Americans couldn't name China's leader, and most Americans didn't care about Putin prior to the Ukraine war.

            Yes. The people who vote in the primary are among the 23% of people with TDS (Trump Deification Syndrome) and some of teh 43% of the party that are afraid of President Trump so will vote so they avoid his anger and try to get his approval and a pat on the head. 555

                @Horace

                Does anyone, anywhere say they support a leader because they’re a member of a cult of personality?

                If not, does that mean that they don’t exist?

                Or maybe there are other things we look at to identify them besides self-profession by adherents?

                If so, what might those things be?

                  I specifically said I found a fair case made by Trump supporters on this board that they preferred his policies over the opposition's. From there you can go ahead and say that even though they would have voted for a personality-free automaton with those same policies, they also happened to be under Trump's cult leader spell. But then that would just be a way to comfortably marginalize the other political tribe.

                    Yep. I did not vote for him in 2016. I did in 2020, despite a plethora of unforced errors. I will not in 2024 primaries. If he wins the nomination, we will have to see who is on the other side.

                      I hear the policy thing a lot. It’s one thing to have a popular and right position on something. And even I think Trump was right on many cultural and economic issues.

                      Being right is one thing though - but the guy was a belligerent buffoon who had no idea how to make progress on what he believed in. Worse, he fueled division further. He amped up the shitty power of social media to get people angrier.

                      The only real policy win I hear is that he didn’t let the other side in and have a run at their agenda.

                          Does anyone, anywhere say they support a leader because they’re a member of a cult of personality?

                          If not, does that mean that they don’t exist?

                          Or maybe there are other things we look at to identify them besides self-profession by adherents?

                          If so, what might those things be?

                          I specifically said I found a fair case made by Trump supporters on this board that they preferred his policies over the opposition's. From there you can go ahead and say that even though they would have voted for a personality-free automaton with those same policies, they also happened to be under Trump's cult leader spell. But then that would just be a way to comfortably marginalize the other political tribe.

                          I hear the policy thing a lot. It’s one thing to have a popular and right position on something. And even I think Trump was right on many cultural and economic issues.

                          Being right is one thing though - but the guy was a belligerent buffoon who had no idea how to make progress on what he believed in. Worse, he fueled division further. He amped up the shitty power of social media to get people angrier.

                          The only real policy win I hear is that he didn’t let the other side in and have a run at their agenda.

                          Rather a somewhat competent buffon, rather than a senile idiot who may start WW3.

                          As unsettling as it may be - that’s much much more up to the guy sitting in the Kremlin. If he’s determined to do it, the White House can’t stop it.

                              I don’t really know what that means. Is there another definition of WW3 besides nuclear apocalypse? Are you saying Putin believes he can achieve asymmetrical nuclear victory? His army is a POS, so I don’t see how a conventional WW3 makes any sense for him.

                                The way brainwashing works is the cult doing the brainwashing uses centers of influence to repeat a certain narrative over and over again until the ones being brainwashed decide that it must be true because the same thing is being said from so many different places in such a consistent way. It's an old old trick, and while it's true that the weak minded are more susceptible, even highly intelligent people get taken in by this tactic. Once the brainwashing gets a grip on the mind, the brainwashed individual will reinforce the narrative on his own, because it is human nature to justify a belief system. But the narrative will remain consistent.

                                What you wrote s the pure, unadulterated result of having been brainwashed.

                                    Trump had a large impact in pretty much every arena. Domestically, he pushed for greater border security and made some things happen there. he tried very hard to force Congress to DO THER JOB, which both sides of both houses shirked shamelessly. He presided over a thriving economy.

                                    In foreign policy he pulled us out of aa disastrous Iran nukes deal and a one-sided Paris accord. He pulled NATO up by its bootstraps and made them cough up more of what they should have been paying all along.

                                    He handled ISIS pretty well as I recall and decapitated some of Iran's bad guys.

                                      Being right is one thing though - but the guy was a belligerent buffoon who had no idea how to make progress on what he believed in. Worse, he fueled division further. He amped up the shitty power of social media to get people angrier.

                                      The only real policy win I hear is that he didn’t let the other side in and have a run at their agenda.

                                      The way brainwashing works is the cult doing the brainwashing uses centers of influence to repeat a certain narrative over and over again until the ones being brainwashed decide that it must be true because the same thing is being said from so many different places in such a consistent way. It's an old old trick, and while it's true that the weak minded are more susceptible, even highly intelligent people get taken in by this tactic. Once the brainwashing gets a grip on the mind, the brainwashed individual will reinforce the narrative on his own, because it is human nature to justify a belief system. But the narrative will remain consistent.

                                      What you wrote s the pure, unadulterated result of having been brainwashed.

                                      The fun part about your comment is that you’ve been conditioned to believe anyone that disagrees with you is brainwashed. Everyone who disagrees with you is coming from exactly the same place.

                                      No sonny, what you're seeing is the result of decades of watching you idiots fall for whatever the Left rolls down the hall at you. My positions have remained consistent for more years than you've been alive. I have the advantage of actually watching as the cult of the Left has shifted the narrative upside down and watched the adherents shift views to stay with the narrative.
