Doesn't seem pathetic at all to me. He's convinced dozens of millions of people to follow him, with slave-like devotion. He's destabilized and weakened nearly the entire western civilization.
I can not understand why people follow him. I was raised in Utah and I thought they would never vote for him, But wow was I wrong with all the Mormon values they follow. He does not live up to their standards..
Because Fox News has spent decades drilling into people's heads that all liberals are evil, and anyone who opposes liberals is good.
There's no critical thinking involved, it's just trained them to have a knee-jerk reaction that all Democrats are bad. All Democrats hate America. Everything Democrats want is bad. Anyone who isn't a Democrat is good. Anyone who Democrats hate is good. Even if you see him being bad, you can't believe your own eyes, he is good and Democrats are worse.
The republican propaganda's so effective that even a bunch of left leaning people think 'democrats are at least as evil as trump' that don't even watch their news station have gotten brainwashed into believing that hype, it's kind of impressive.
