7. How do you deal with a cult like this?

In the poll cited (from just this week) 70% of Republicans are OK with Trump suspending laws TO GO AFTER HIS POLITICAL ENEMIES! In other words, 70% of Republicans are perfectly OK with a dictatorship. Of course the number that would be OK with Biden or any Democratic President doing the same would be close to 0. Now imagine the same question was asked of ANY Democratic President. I' find it hard to imagine more than 10-15% of Democrats would be OK with it. But then, Democrats aren't a cult. They actually believe in Democracy.

All the garbage about what's wrong with the Democrats message. Compared to Republicans, what's wrong is the Democrats aren't a cult. Republicans do not believe in objective reality. They believe what their leaders tell them to believe.
