@newtron9 I notice you didn't say how it was "not at all."

@marco12377 You don't actually know the difference between a religion and a cult? Have you never bothered to learn the definitions? Besides, religions are protected under the 1st amendment.

@marco12377 It is NOT just the popularity, but the acceptance. And that acceptance is a function of time. You throw around the word "cult" so casually, because it's a popular thing to do. Everyone is saying it; so it must be right. You're worse than MAGA.

@marco12377 "Just because a large number of people have accepted a lie doesn't make it a good thing, or right." I said nothing about what you or anyone calls good or bad, right or wrong. I said you don't know the difference between a cult and a religion. That's all. The rest is your straw man. You can lol all you like, if that makes you feel knowledgeable. And you are worse than MAGA because they know what they are, their limitations. You do not. You pretend expertise where there is none: Dunning-Kruger.

@marco12377 Here's my point, since you keep ignoring it: a cult is not a religion; a religion is not a cult. A cult may become a religion, as Christianity did some 1,700 years ago, when Constantine accepted it in Rome. Also, not every MAGAt is religious. And Trump's rhetoric turns to religion only now and then. This "cult" thing is a silly cliche that you guys are doing. I'll grant that MAGA is like a cult in some ways, but it is not one...yet, at least.

@jamesstuart3346 That's what Trump wants to do on day one. He would have to suspend it to deport all those people, jail his political opponents, and fire the reporters he doesn't like--on day one. Unless he plans to let back in those people he deported, release from jail his political opponents, and allow the reporters to go back to work on day two, then he would have to suspend it indefinitely.
