1) The alternative isn't worse. It's the same. 2) Fear of Hillary and the Democrats doesn't explain the cult-of-personality devotion that a lot of people still have to "God Emperor Trump."

I disagree.  Trump is "tough love" to all the powers that be.  Hillary is just another stooge and typical politician.  The fact is , you could say each party has a cult-of-personality devotion.  The libertarian party, green parties have the same feel for the "whole group" not one person which is more frightening.

Trump IS the powers that be. Despite his dishonest rhetoric, he is not anti-establishment, and never was. How many more bankers and war-mongers does he have to appoint, how much more authoritarian garbage does he have to push, before people stop pretending that is some courageous outsider? He is just the next puppet of the one ruling class.

I suppose that is why everyone hates him because he one of them? the proof is in the pudding as they say.

War mongers are hired and fired so far.  We'll always have generals that is never going to away.

This is why I get upset. You have twisted this already. This is about his authoritarianism and dictator like behavior and how some of his 'supporters' are more like followers with most following blindly, like those who followed Hitler and Mao.  

As for each party having a 'cult of personality" no one idealizes a single person in any of the parties, they believe what a party stands for.  As of now I am closer to Independent. I think the party system is broken and needs to be done away with. This shutdown wouldn't have happened if we had a non-partisan system. The Democratic party is out of control, the election proved that. The Republicans are self interested, yet what the party commands they do. 

I saw a meme today that very aptly ' Why 5 billion dollars? We could buy Mexico for that much and fix it. '

Nothing to do with his authoritarianism and dictatorship traits you think he has. 

You confusing the the support of his supporters ( who actually like the fact deep state/media/government/his own party hate him ) , with thinking he has some ulterior motives of a dictatorship, lol sorry that is funny. Its very clear why his supporters like him there is no confusion about this , people like yourself and Larkin are trying to find excuse why people like him and of course explain it away with some conspiratorial non-sense. 

There really isn't reason to do so, its obvious why they do , not sure why make this hard on yourselves.
