As for the cult of personality, I always thought our side was immune to such a thing, but, well...this election season has been an eye-opener in more ways than one. Just think back to the convention, and the chant of "Yes, you will...yes, you will...yes, you will."
Good grief, even the Obamabots said "we" instead of "you." The Trump fans in that audience placed all the power in the hands of their leader.
They're frantic for a leader. A SUPERMAN - not a dull administrator who'll point to the Constitution and say, "
Use it!"
The people no longer believe in the American system, in our Rule of Law; and they don't believe in themselves. We're following the Democrats here - in 2008 they fell for the Chicago Jesus, who was going to descend from the heavens, or Soros' plane...halo and all...and told us "
We (meaning he) was the one we (meaning you) were waiting for!"
We're following along. Frankly, in the main, we're not so different from the Democrats as we'd like to think. Cultural poisoning by the Left is affecting everyone. Who among us, either side, has the courage to stand up and say what Al Sharptongue or Jesse Jag-off, is full of, and is spreading? FEW.
Paul Ryan is scared of his own shadow; and Johnny Boner before him. Mitch McConjob is just a clown - but it's to our shame that the people of Kentucky don't vote him out and WE, the REST of the nation, don't demand HIS impeachment.
So we're messed up in the head just like the Useful Idiots over on the other side; and we're looking for our secular messiah like they were and still are.
We are in for it. If there's a god, we're going to pay for this travesty. If it's only Natural Law...we are now violating it. Messiahs tend to turn out to be con-men; and this one isn't even running a very clever con.
