(46,104 posts)Although, the MAGAts who literally keep Trump propped up would still support him. He represents their black hearts and gives them their validation.

(17,538 posts)You should read the lame azz excuses on the conservative sites about Trump admitting that he lied about the danger of the Virus early on. Conservatives have more excuses for Trump than Carter's has liver pills.
****************************************
For those too young to remember, Ted Mack's Original Amateur Hour :
Carter's Little Liver Pills predated the other available forms of bisacodyl and was a very popular and heavily advertised patent medicine up until the 1960s, spawning a common saying (with variants) in the first half of the 20th century: "He/She has more _________ than Carter has Little Liver Pills".

(46,104 posts)Case in point: I was in Germany in 1979. A friend took me to a private Jaeger Party (Royal Huntsmen) in the middle of the woods. There they drank beer, ate roasted meat, and sang Hitler Fight Songs. With vigor. And not only are there surviving German/Nazi sympathizers, their children, and grandchildren still regard the days of the Third Reich wistfully. The Good Ole Days. If they haven't left Hitler after more than seven decades, we can expect something similar with MAGAts.

They are a cult and nothing will snap them out of it.

Systematically deprogrammed
The first step is to turn off rush Limburger and Fox News

(19,066 posts)They don't worship Trump despite his character, they worship him because of his character.
They love the fact that he's an old testament authoritarian figure who's cruel and brutal to the weak. And above all they absolutely love the way he treats women as sex objects and property. They even love the idea that he's cheated on his wife and raped several women, even children. He's the biblical version of the man they they most strive for. I suspect they even like that he sexualizes his own daughter.
Their warped version of their religion is similar to Muslim extremism, they believe that men are alphas and women are second class citizens, and they believe that women deserve to be raped and abused if they leave the house and choose to work or dress un-modestly.
Trump is the Christian ideal for them, he's what all the evangelical men wish they could all be, and he's what all the evangelical women think is a strong man who crushes the weak before him and punishes women by violence and sexual assault.

(4,522 posts)As for sexualizing his daughter, not much of a stretch:
Genesis 19:3038 Lot's daughters got their father drunk, and over two consecutive nights had sex with him without his knowledge. They both got pregnant.

(12,047 posts)I know its hard, but I think we all need to focus on one thing. The Woodward book is it. Don't dilute the Woodward book with a bunch of other allegations (that are almost certainly true).
Just stick with Woodward book, and keep pounding it. Plenty of content there to last 53 days.

A nephew (43) in particular. I asked him if he thought Jesus would grab women by the genitals, cage children, rape 13 YOs, and he said...in true dumb fuck MAGAt fashion that none of that happened, all fake news. You can't fix that level of stupidity.
