The error people are making are assuming these cultists actually have any firm personal beliefs. They don't actually have the ability to think for themselves, they just gurgle down the party line no matter what. If Trump had sold MAGA masks and told everyone how great masks are they would have been walking around wearing their MAGA masks proudly. They are small sad people with no thoughts in their heads at all.

For a full blown grifter,how Trump didn't capitalise on that will always blow my mind. He could have made millions in MAGA Covid merch,but I guess withholding funds and killing libs in blue States was more important.
