Remember, charges and convictions against Charles Manson... [View all]

...had no effect on his cult members.

So, don't expect the Trump Cult members to change their tune because Trump paid hush money to a porn star to hide the fact that he had sex with a porn star while his wife was home nursing a newborn.

Or hording top secret and very sensitive documents and then refusing to give them back to the proper authorities when asked and then subpoenaed to do so.

Or committing bank and tax fraud.

Or defrauding a charity.

Or defrauding veterans and average Americans by establishing a "fake college"

Or causing an insurrection against the U.S. government and conspiring to do so.

Or conspiring to overturn an election and admitting it on tape.

Or dealing with the Russians to corrupt the 2016 election.

Or credible rape charges and up to 20 similar charges made by women and admitting on tape.

Or all the obstruction of justice and perjury committed by Trump in most, if not all of these charges.

And, I'm sure I'm missing some credible accusations, charges and convictions.

When discussing politics with a Trump supporter, here's the final line I use as I walk away.

"You're not part of a political movement, you're a member of a cult. Talking to you is like trying to convince Squeaky Fromme that Charlie is just not the man for her."
