Trump follower in 2016

It remains to be seen what happens first — his public meltdown on stage, that can’t be spun, concealed or denied, or the annihilation of the last standing American ethical norm at his idiot demented hands.

Found liable for defamation, rape and sexual battery by a jury of his peers, which fact is apparently not putting even a dent in his support base of violent deluded cult followers, nor in his special treatment and exemption from the laws, judicial norms and regulations effecting everybody and anybody else in the U.S., and the breaks he’s increasingly being given by judges, jurists and prosecutors placed by Mitch McConnell in his mission to totally fuck America.

In the massive retrogressive Right-Wing Christian U.S. Rape Culture resisting #MeToo, #TimesUp, and any sexual equity whatsoever, his adjudication as a rapist seems even to have recommended him to as many as 45% of the populace, illogically raising him even further in their estimation, that already, in some quarters, places him at the absolute zenith of their worlds, next only to their Lord, Jesus Christ.

NBC’s utterly revolting, swiftly aborted move to hire one such follower, who even changed her name because Trump wanted her too, was manifestly fucked up. NBC created Trump as a legitimate human in the minds of the U.S. populace in the first place, with the Apprentice. NBC was pulling a CNN move in trying to appeal to violent, toxic, deluded, nutcase MAGA Trump cult followers in case he wins.

Look how well it worked for them… “It was a flawed vision, and sort of a stupid one — which perhaps explains why, as of Wednesday morning, Licht is now the ex-CEO of the network.” Their ratings plummeted also, and still haven’t recovered. (“Chris Licht was fired at CNN,” Slate, Jun 7, 2023)
