These were people living lives that included large empty spaces. In their search for meaning, they filled those voids with Donald Trump. Gandhi noted that what you think, you become. This surely applies to the cult members ..... Trump became so big a part of their daily lives, indeed their meaning .....that they believed they were an important part of his life. That he meant the kind things he said to them, and cared about them. Fools.
