I mean...if we were GONNA do this cult of personality thing, you kinda had to see it coming that it was gonna be a REAL F**KING STUPID one. It tracks.

Oh, we've been headed in that direction ever since a former actor turned governor, then president, started snuggling up to the "christian right", did away with most of the protections of the previous century, and then made corporations people, letting them vote with their wallets.

Honestly, it’s all on display even with the mindless chant of “USA USA USA” at sporting or wrestling events. It sounds totally cultish. Instead of cheering “Let’s Go, USA” or something like that, the chants devolve into cult chants. It’s a subtle thing, but IMO clearly obvious.

You don't want to go out of the Country for fear of being embarrassed as an American. Americans can't find jobs overseas, because no one wants to hire us. Can you blame them? Our allies, like forever, hate our guts. The only people that like us are Arabs and dictators. And that's just for the money.

One think the person destroying our democracy as a fair amount of intelligence understanding and seems to know what he’s doing not just chaos insanity incompetent Senility is destroying America. It is utter insanity.

It's really unfortunately not all that surprising, I mean if you know anything about child psychology, the evolution of the US tracks. We could really use some parenting from Canada, the UK and EU, but I get it if they just want to call us a lost cause and give us over to foster care...

I used to wonder how German’s could have allowed Hitler to do what he did, encouraged him, really. Now, I get it, but I wonder now, were they as stupid as Trump followers, or was Hitler less obviously a con man? Can Trump is so out there with his manipulations.

I don’t want ANY dictator in charge but having a criminal demented uneducated stupid cruel pedophile somehow makes it even worse. His only skill is lying & he’s even lousy at that. I can lie much more convincingly; I just choose not to.

You think these people are going to snap out of it when Trump dies? You think we're going back to the glory days of the Clinton years or the Obama years? Folks, stop kidding yourself. Trump & MAGA aren't aberrations. They're almost half the country. You can't find common ground w/ that.

That's what I truly just cannot understand. By account, Hitler was a brilliant public speaker, charismatic and charming which is why so many were willing to follow him. Jabba the Hutt has more charisma than this moldy sack of orange slop. A cult of personality, for THIS?

Nah. In that universe. Their president sought out the worlds smartest man alive. He genuinely wanted to help people suffering from the dust bowls, famine, economy. What we have here is a death cult ostracizing all the smart folks out of the country and electing genuine psychopaths Macho for 2028

We have done some monumentally dumb things over the decades, so maybe not a big a surprise in the end. I mean the Civil War was both our finest and in some ways our absolute dumbest and most unnecessary hour. Took years of bloodshed and wasted lives to be among the last to abolish a manifest evil.

There's a lot of chat about Trump voters and non voters but zero self reflection on American society as to why he was there as a candidate in the first place (just could not happen in the Australian system) and why Americans could vote for a person with his record. The world is gobsmacked.

Jim Jones may have been more coherent and smarter than the old rapist...but there is a nearly unlimited number of truly gullible and stupid Americans.

Living color: Neon lights, a Nobel prize When a mirror speaks, the reflection lies You won't have to follow me Only you can set me free I sell the things you need to be I'm the smiling face on your TV Oh, I'm the cult of personality

Does power and money win over intelligence? Because this is what will need to be studied when this nightmare is over. Because right now it feels the dumbest cult of personality has made far more headway then it ever should.

The good thing about a cult of personality is when primitive cultures worshipped a statue, and Romans knew, all you had to do to conquer them into fear and confusion was chop down the statue. 😱

“Hey! It ain’t easy being this stupid. It takes a lot of work to feel so inferior because “smert” people are always takin’ up the limelight. We needz a way to let all you idjuts know we matter too, even if it does cost us more money, and rob granny of her helf care.” Signed, MAGA

Hey, dude - Don’t paint an entire country with a dumb-as-a-box-of-rocks mentality! The majority of US Citizens didn’t vote for the vile bloated orange obscenity — I still think he STOLE million of the 2025 mail-in votes, and dumped them. Not my President.😝
