This is so so sad.

A religion is when a leader would die for their followers. A cult is when the followers would die for their leader. The problem is that Trump followers think he is the former.
@georgetakei This is already an organized religion with an holy book.
@georgetakei at least MAGAts don’t hang out at airports handing out AK-47 and asking for donation
@georgetakei it's astonishing, scary
@georgetakei I know several trump supporters whose family, at least children, are not. So, of course why would they trust them?
@Sckenai @georgetakei
Precisely my situation as a daughter of a Trump supporter. She doesn’t believe the science of wildfire smoke and health impacts but she does believe the science that only biological women should be allowed to play sports. It’s disgusting.
@georgetakei To me, anytime a person is worshipped as being something they are not. Trump's crimes, reckless disregard, disrespect, and narcissistic traits are an example of a cult leader. The folks are doing the worship of all behaviors and also show how misled normally good behaving individuals could become members.
@georgetakei Here's a visual definition.
@georgetakei When you realize it. Trump would not look twice if his followers died or were themselves under prosecution for crimes done for Trump's benefit.
@georgetakei The definition that has stuck with me is: a cult is a small, unpopular religion; a religion is a large, popular cult.
@georgetakei
Perfect karma, seeing how all those people who aren’t being trusted now were the ones who insisted the orange Buffon was more trust-worthy. Perfect example of reaping what they sowed.
@georgetakei Some Americans are stupid.
@georgetakei haha when is the last time you were at a trekky convention 😆
@georgetakei
Pretty sure you spelt that wrong George
@georgetakei are we waiting for the next #Waco but this time with #Trump as the evil cult leader?
@georgetakei Religion is the definition of cult, but not all cults are religious. But Trumpnazis are everywhere. 😢
@georgetakei I think we all underestimated just how batshit insane Trump’s followers are…
