The greatest mystery has been: why such blind devotion to dear leader. And I think I may have some insight.

It’s not dear leader at all. It is something quite more nefarious. There has always been a rumbling of discontent, of disconnect, running through the depths of the country. In dear leader, they have found their voice. And, they will not be denied. The real objective is the dissolution of the country. Democracy is so yesterday. These radicals want nothing less than the end of democracy. Whatever it takes, they are willing to accept any sleight, any depravity, any low down deceit…doesn’t matter. They see the country as fatally flawed and the only way to fix it is to burn it down and start over with a decidedly whiter and richer governance.

Think about it. The one thing we hear from the base over and over: we’re not in love with his method, but we love that he is shaking things up. Drain the swamp? Shit, they’re swimming in it.

So while I don’t claim a specialty in psychology I do think I am pretty close in dissecting the brains of the devoted. And they seem a fairly homogenous group. Sharing a mental similarity that may not be psychotic, but dangerously close. Ted Bundy seemed normal and charismatic until he locked the doors on the VW.  Too late.

Dummy up and deal.
