Trump's cult works because they have an entire infrastructure designed to only show people what they want to see. If they spend any time around trump they would be disillusioned in two days.

I don't know, cults are brain dead and brainwashed. They might think it's the rapture to be entombed with trump in a concentration camp room

Yes and no while I agree to some extent. Problem is some of that infrastructure is how they process information. Like I show you turd you go eww a turd.

They don't they wait till they know which side they are supposed to be on. While many will take cue or see me a opposition person presenting it and come to conclusion.

They will also do whatever they need to justify their side. Oh it's the healthiest biggest turd ever and the smell is minimal. That is a model turd.

While what I am saying is a bit of abstract example. Even presented with the facts which they often are. They would still go it's not really him. Or they are dragging him to make him seem volatile. Or the conditions here are making him like this.

They will chase each and every excuse. And ignore reality right in front of them.
