2024 US Presidential Election

[Angrboda]

I was reading about Trump's attempts to square the circle of Trump's views on abortion. The article pointed out that while some view his backpedaling on abortion as a betrayal, others believe it's just an act he's using to secure his election, after which, he'll return to radid pro-life policies and views that his pro-life followers want him to have. The stunning part of this is how entirely fact-free such a position is, that no matter what views he publicly espouses, one should have faith in him regardless, that he's ultimately got a plan and will take all these extreme right ideas and people and bring them to the promised land. It's essentially religious, believing on faith, not just in the absence of evidence, but in the very teeth of evidence to the contrary. It is truly nothing more than a cult.
