Dutch, kudos to Rachel Scott for starting off the interview with questions that the mainstream media has been afraid to ask Donald Trump.

Of course he resisted answering the questions!! Of course he struck back in a defensive stance! He doesn't know how to answer questions that put him on the spot, and attempt to hold him responsible for his racist and inane words and actions.

If his followers can't see through his false "Christianity", his selfishness, his lack of integrity, then any crazy, unhinged answers he gives to valid questions will be met with applause and adulation.

All I can say is "Shame on them."

Don't forget that he have the Christians something pretty big: abortion. They're willing to overlook the rest.

Trevy, you're right about that and I still say "Shame on them" for overlooking his desires to tell everyone how to live and what to think. People that love ans respect him are anything but "Christian" in my book, and I could write a book about how I feel and have felt about Donald Trump for the last 8 years.

I agree. Unfortunately, they also see it as righteous to tell everyone how to live since they, and only they, answer to a higher call🙄

They aren't answering to a higher call. They are answering to their idol, Donald Trump.

Yes, but that's the justification they use to do anything, no matter how morally it legally wrong.

Spot on. It's a cult, and Rump is their cult leader. It's not a "higher call", what they are following is the lowest possible call there is.

Chances are that his cult followers (I won't say 'voters' anymore) are malignant narcissists just like him, and they support him because of that.

And yes, definitely a large dose of kudos to Rachel Scott for tearing down his orange mask!

Yes, he has given them permission to act on their narcissistic tendencies.

As someone wrote so eloquently (sadly, I can't remember who it was): "Trump's followers aren't shocked by his scandals, they are strengthened by them. Trump is an asshole. And he teaches his followers that it's okay to be an asshole. They vote for him BECAUSE he's an asshole. They vote for him because they WANT to be a racist, misogynistic, egocentric, pussy-grabbing and money-grabbing asshole just like their idol."
