45. Putin is an Authoritarian and the Pope is Catholic which is almost Mormon, in FR book.

Obviously they love Authoritarians, since they almost each poster exhibit classic RW Authoritarian follower traits. Trump is authoritarian as shown by his being a ruthless businessman ("You're fired&quot and Cruz is a Dominionist (hard christian) authoritarian. FR is more TheRump than Cruzer and is badly split between the two.

Romney is hated for being a mormon, as is mormon Glenn Beck, now that he is on the 'outs'. Everyone they used to love is now on the 'outs' and is considered an evil traitorous tool of the GOPe (GOP elite): Bush I, Bush II, Bush III, Rove, Fox, Hannity, Beck, Ryan, Gingrich, McCain, .... The only ones who have survived are Reagan and Palin. Rush and Coulter get some love and Buchanan seems to still do well with Freepers.
