Related: About this forumTrump insults his supporters once again.
First there was the comment about not losing a voter even if he shot someone in the middle of a crowded street. His supporters must be just beaming with pride about that.
And now this: http://www.huffingtonpost.com/entry/trump-supporters-violent_us_5854c489e4b08debb7896896. Of course, some I suppose will take what he's saying as a compliment.
Excerpt:
But now, youre mellow and youre cool and youre not nearly as vicious or violent, right? Because we won, right? Now youre sort of laying back ... youre basking in the glory of victory.
It's a cult. Trump has created a cult. And the mainstream media continues to normalize it.

(13,459 posts)Donald Trump is a vile demagogue with a cult following.
This creature must never be normalized.

(10,721 posts)So, Trump calls his supporters mean and violent. He says he wasn't actually serious about draining the swamp, as if that comes as a surprise. And very early on he said he wouldn't lose a voter if he shot someone on 5th Avenue in broad daylight.
It is positively mind-blowing. As you say, he has a cult following.
