It's a cult, and every day Trump is sure to feed them their daily dose of lies and vitriol.

Trump's cult is huge, and it's financed by dark money. Jones merely filched his followers' bank accounts and SS checks. The true danger of Trump is in the fact that very powerful people want to see him become president.

I think the allure of being behind an authoritarian's rise to power is what keeps the ones who aren't terrified of him.

Devin Nunes said as much. "All this could go away." And they are still trying to get the power back, every last chump supporter. The poor magats just want to kick out the Dems and hand it all over to chump for the revenge parade.

Typical culture dynamic, just as in 2016 Trump convinces his followers that whatever is "done" to Trump is being done to them. This is Jim Jones all over again.
