    Trump cultists are like maybe 30% of the republicans, making them 15% of the population at best.

    It doesn’t matter if the vast majority of republicans aren’t trump cultists, it only matters that the vast majority of republicans will vote for him when they’re alone in that voting booth.

    That makes the vast majority of republicans willing (and some eager) to bring a fucking fascist, and all that he stands for, back into power. This is an existential threat to democracy in the US, not even being hyperbolic.

      Well, the standing president isn’t exactly the ideal picture of someone who isn’t facist…
