These people are truly brainwashed. If Trump smeared dogshit on his face, so would these people.

One supporter said she had bandaged her own ear to help Mr Trump "set a new fashion statement"

I don't have any words....

They were wearing diapers because Trump shat himself in court. It's a literal cult.

Do they love him like Jim Jones, or more like David Koresh?

[–] rockSlayer@lemmy.world 0 points 2 months ago

I think they love him more like Marshall Applewhite

Reminds me of when courtiers would flatter their king. King too fat to do up his buttons? Undone buttons is now the fashion. King going bald? Everyone shaves their head.

Wouldn't you need to have someone shoot your ear for true solidarity?

Would love to see their costume if the bullet had made it through. Would they kill themselves?

They took a shot at Obama and gave away tire gauges with the phrase: "Obama's Foreign Policy Plan".

This was because a citizen asked what they could do on an individual level to help with oil dependency. He said if you keep your tires to the recommended PSI and if everyone did it then we'd collectively save a lot on gas.

Intellectual dishonesty isn't just a strategy with them, it's their basic language.

These people are just so very strange. I mean, I guess that shouldn't be a surprise: they worship a guy who is so obviously a con man, criminal, narcissist, dumb shit, and was objectively a terrible president. Not just "well, I won't vote for Biden so I guess I'm forced to vote for Trump," but literal worship, saying without hyperbole that god picked Trump to run the country. It's crazy town.

But even with that as the context, these people seem crazy.
