        It turns out that the police will absolutely rise up but the military is all about protecting and following the chain of command. I used to think as you do but I’ve since seen so many times when they have expelled the crazies. There’s no union protecting bad soldiers from consequences.

          I’m pretty sure they’re saying his followers are a cult, not the Army. His followers will easily take the word of him and his campaign over the Army and Arlington National Cemetery.

            I’ve reread the comment a few times and still think that they were talking about the army. I do see what you mean though.

          Well, at least the brass at Joint Base Henderson Hall, one of the cushiest appointments in the service, located in one of the bluest zip codes in the US.

        How often do cults end in mass suicide?

      This event will change exactly 0 people’s minds at the ballot box.

        You say that yet everyone except the “base” is fleeing. Trump is limited to down ballot voters and whackadoos.

          Look, come election day, I hope you’re right and I’m wrong. I’m just not seeing any conservatives “fleeing”.

          Audio leaked of him admitting he sexual assaults women because he feels he’s entitled to, and he won the presidency. The “look” of anything Trump does is irrelevant.

          The one true thing he has ever said was that he could shoot someone on fifth ave and not lose any support.

            I disagree.

            There’s certainly a lot of people that will just vote for Trump no matter what, but this election will be won or lost on the hapless fools who are still bobbling around in the middle easily distracted by phrases and headlines.

            The “look” of anything Trump does is irrelevant.

            It’s true that his loyal fans are blind to his egregious flaws, but this statement is nevertheless hyperbole. If it were true he wouldn’t need to bother campaigning.

              Campaigning in the USA is all pageantry. He’s doing it for his own ego. Anyone who hasn’t made up their mind about Trump in the last eight years isn’t going to be swayed by this picture. It’s like the hundredth least worst thing he’s done.

                Whoever hasn’t made up their mind about Trump in the last eight years is precisely the type of idiot who will be swayed by these types of things in the weeks and months before the election.

                This isn’t going to be the foundation for a landslide against Trump. My point is, it’s not good for him.
