47. His supporters are children who were not cherished and crave adoration and love

In a weird way mf45 gives them the familiar type of love they had as children. I think of the video I saw of Don jr trying to hug his dad and mf45 shrugged him off. They also had bully parents and they grew into bullies in adulthood and lookup to their cult bully as their hero. Put everybody down feels good to them.

Ironically every mf45 supporter I have ever met said they had difficult childhoods.
