US Election & Presidency

i would imagine Trump probably is part/member of several cults that we don't know about

What's more, a 'cult of personality' by it's very definition. Populated largely by middle-aged divorcees and edgy teens who think the office of President now exists primarily to fight the front-line on their sad little youtube culture war against blue-haired feminist uni professors and 'woke' celebrities.

Then there's those on the other side who think simply being 'horrified' by his behaviour is going to be effective in a climate like this...

I'm not sure which mindset is more deluded

I've often heard people say that Trump himself is a Cult but my hearing isn't what it was.

Donald Trump has guaranteed that he has one vote.
He's just voted in Florida.

I see Trumps tax returns and charitable giving are being questioned. It seems he has a habit of donating crappy land (in one case an actual swamp) to State Parks etc. The land is practically worthless but miraculously is assigned an inflated value in his tax returns as he can set donations off against his taxes. As Slabhead has said elsewhere we really must denounce such “virtue signalling”. Oh sorry what I meant was we really should denounce this fraud

Lol yeah. That's another thing...

Accusing someone of virtue signalling is in itself, literally, virtue signalling.

i.e. 'You're only saying that because you want people to think you're virtuous... I would NEEEVER do that...'

People who track Trump closely are wondering if it’s the first time in his life he’s been in a library (the location for the polling station)

^More than likely he was also looking for a first edition of his original autobiography as well as oting

The great Middle East peacemaker seems to be trying to start a war between Egypt and Ethiopia now

Yeah, why don't you shoot the messenger. He's only stating what Egypt is likely to do, that doesn't equate to Trump 'trying to start a war'
