Sums it up perfectly.

It's what we see in their posts all day, every day.

Jim Jones' supporters did the same thing. Look how well that worked for them.

Culty McCultingtons


"He didn't do nothin'!"

Are they like Judgey McJudgersons?

 

[The AntiDonald]

The "cult" is actually goofy progressives. They have a complete belief system that will fail miserably when put into practice.

November 2018. Please remember it well, for it will repeat.

They can't think, they threw away their morals and they follow the cult leader..

You known what he did. How about sending goons after the ambassador and that public slander for political gain.

 

[trixare4kids]

Asking for decency and consistency is not an insult.

Cult can be defined a few different ways, but I think this is the most apt to the current situation.

a misplaced or excessive admiration for a particular person or thing.

Now, perhaps you and the millions of others who cheer this man love the lying. The casual misogyny. The constant self serving nature of pretty much everything he does. Maybe the hypocrisy sends a tingle up your leg and a shiver down your spine. Perhaps you see the corruption as toughness and can relate to the proud ignorance with which he approaches almost every issue.

Maybe it's not misplaced admiration. Maybe it's even worse than we thought and Trumpists aren't members of a cult.

Maybe they are just bad people.

Check the hypocrisy at the door.
In your critique, you could very well be describing an Obama "cultist".

And we're the cult? :lamo

Irony.

If we're the cult, you, the collective, who post here day in and day out labeling those who don't think like you, are the real cultists. The reason Trump was elected in the first place was because of those who can't handle not being in charge of those unwashed masses aka Trump "cultists"

...Hardly. Cult mentality is refusing to alter your position after Mueller’s 400 page year long investigation. That is “cult” - refusing to alter course when you are provably wrong.

Cult mentality is adhering to a cult leader and believing everything he says without question.

Cult mentality is when you stop thinking for yourself and let the cult leader do it for you.

Cult mentality is when logic and reason no longer have any bearing...and are replaced with mindless blame, hate and fear of the "other."


Trumpism is by definition a cult.

 

[Artymoon]

Name call or use labels all you want, but this thread is a perfect example of why Trump will win again in 2020.

The "cult" is actually goofy progressives. They have a complete belief system that will fail miserably when put into practice.

Please accurately describe these progressive beliefs as accurately as you can, and how they will fail, with as few strawmen as possible.

Cultist, cultist, I'm not a cultist, you're the cultist. :lamo

 

[smallvoice]

If the shoe fits, you gotta wear it. What other reason can there possibly be for any person, in their right mind, for still supporting the corrupt, commie Liar-in-Chief?

You get no sympathy from me as I read all these Trump cultists talking about "democrat scum" or "leftist's talking out their ass."

You get what you give so wear it well.

There's only one possible reason for anyone to support President Trump: The Dimocrap party and their bankrupt ideology. You libs did it to yourselves, wallow in it.

Cultist, cultist, I'm not a cultist, you're the cultist. :lamo

Sticks and stones.

Democrats put an end to their own party.

Yes, I know lots of the people that use that term hate Donald Trump. I'll grant that they believe they have good reasons to do so.
I don't like Donald Trump myself. His personal history and the way he behaves is frequently repulsive and utterly disgusting. I did not vote for him.

But I support President Trump because I agree with most (not all) of the policies he has advanced as president and while I do not care in general for his "counterpunching" and "tweeting", I do admire considerably a Republican president who isn't afraid or unwilling to fight back.

Finally, I believe that the efforts people have made to oppose President Trump are far more dangerous to our country than anything President Trump has done or could conceivably do.

Thus, I find it galling to have myself (and others) labeled as "cultists". By no possible definition of the word is my support of President Trump in any way reminiscent of a cult member showing allegiance to their leader.

While I recognize that there might be some (very few) Trump supporters who would fit that stereotype, it definitely isn't most or even the majority of Trump supporters and I'm pretty sure even Trump haters would recognize that fact if they were honest.

When Trumpettes get their heads out of the sand and realize the true danger that Trump represents to our Constitutional Republic they will find fewer claims against them of being cultists. Then again, there are a fair number of them that do not care for our Constitutional Republic. So there is that as well.

 

[Dayton3]

but I would love to hear which of his politices you like.

I like the policies President Trump has advanced EXCEPT for the following:

1) I'm disappointed that he has not taken any significant efforts to cut the federal budget deficit. Especially by cutting domestic federal spending.
2) I'm against U.S. withdrawing its forces from Syria (or anywhere for that matter).
3) I'm against him unnecessarily antagonizing long time U.S. allies.
4) I'm against him speaking favorably about dictators like Little Kim, Putin, Turkey's "president" and various others.

Not necessarily a policy per se but it is worth mentioning

5) In general I'm against President Trump antagonizing political opposition in the U.S. unnecessarily.

If I were president I would plan to shut the hell off and force the media to have to almost drag comments out of me.

 

[smallvoice]

Too bad. A great many such people are already 'cultists,' blindly following the dogma of religion. Not questioning, accepting everything, making the most convoluted of justifications in the face of reality.

It's in their nature to follow blindly and forfeit critical thinking. If there are hard and fast rules to follow, it's easier for such people to get along in life, they like black and white, they need structure.

So, it's not much of a surprise such people are considered "cultists'.

I personally think the baby killing abortion supporters are the only cult around. Just watch their reaction to this post.

They are cultists. They are insane on social media and cannot actively criticize anything he does. He says **** on camera and they say he didnt say what he just said.

They troll incessantly and worship ever word this demagogue says.

I never knew conservatives were such communist herd animals.

This is the typical trump supporter.

The cruelty is the point.

We need a decency revolution in this country.

No, no I couldn't.

Trump cheats on his wives and values women solely on how they rank on a scale of 1-10 to him.
Obama is a happily married family man.

Trump has lied to the American people more than 10,000 times since he took office.
Obama couldn't hope to approach even a fraction of that number.

Trump surrounded himself with criminals and grifters who have been arrested, indicted, and in some cases are looking at prison time.
Can you name members of Obama's administration who were? No? Of course not.

Trump can hardly speak intelligently on any important issue.
Obama was a thoughtful, highly educated individual who did his best to educate himself on the problems facing America.


Get out of here with the both sides garbage.

 

[Moot]

How so? Ever read your posts back to yourself before you hit send? If we're not with YOU, we are then labeled Trump cultists.

I don't mind you doing it. I realize you've got a hulluva' lot of misplaced anger.

Feel better soon. Maybe if the Democrats would stop running dumbchits, the "cultists" would have something better to vote for.

Personally, I seldom call Trump supporters "cultist"....but they sure make it difficult not to when they display all the attributes of a cult.

So don't blame me if y'all are called a cult. You brought it on yourselves by acting like one.

Give us an example where you criticized Obama?

The term 'cultists' most certainly applies to those who defend all things Trump, come hell or high water ( operative words being 'those who defend ALL things Trump' )....end of story...

 

[smallvoice]

Thank you very much. I did find the supporters of Obama to be cultists however.

Why?

Never had governed anything.
Hardly was present in the Senate
Being black is not a virtue. Being a good man is.
Songs sang to him by children via teachers doing it to the kids
People had no clue what he had ever done, they simply sang his praises

What did he do to win that Nobel? No one has ever been able to answer that. THAT'S a cult action.

Correct. They dont like it because somewhere inside a normal person is screeching to be let out.
