Trumpism seems to be bleeding over into the general populace. In fact, Trump is recorded as only telling 56 lies last week. He is improving and the Evangelicals are a big part of this. What doesn't make the news so much is the "prayer breakfasts" that his GOP is having everywhere and these include Mitch McConnell. The impression is that Trump's GOP is just one big happy religious family. This makes it easier for the mainstream media to "overlook" his racist and white supremacist rants and remarks as his defenders claim he is pure as snow in his desires for America. The idea is to make the general public think Trump and his GOP want everything that you want. The setup on this is to hope that Pence follows Trump and America can get its Christian Nation.

Do they want everything that you do? Of course not. Trump has rescinded Obama bills that would allow a person with mental illness to buy a gun regardless of that illness.

Trump is also trying to make it harder for you to sue the doctor if he cuts off the wrong leg in surgery. Of course, Trump says "we will all be happy."

We should find the door they came through and show them the way out before they take too many bites.

As a former Jehovah's Witness I see that the practices in his list are almost all shared by them. To me, the biggest thing that separates cults from more mainstream religions is the practice of shunning. As some of the respondents mention below this aspect is becoming more mainstream. Many Evangelicals and fundamentalist folks shun their own children or friends for infringement of dogma especially apostasy, homosexuality and misogyny. The thing is I'm personally seeing a type of shunning in Catholic and other mainstream religions and even in relation to politics. I just don't remember that happening twenty years ago.

As I read this, I can't escape the similarity with trumpism.

They're all cults, some more so than others.

All religions are cults. Always have been.

They can all BITE me.
