So the million/billion $ question is - where do we look?   Evan and others need to start a new more moderate party and chuck the existing or some how stage a revolt against Trump and those who have taken over the party.  Maybe it is time the libertarian party gets serious and get real candidates and not just nut jobs or near nut jobs.  Johnson wasn't a full nut job but he was kind of flaky

This could go in a number of different threads, but I will put it here: Been thinking about this for a while now and have come to a conclusion...

 

Trump no longer has supporters.  He has followers.  He is a cult leader in every sense: egotistical, self-serving, manipulative, liar, doesn't tolerate dissent, us-versus-them attitude, feels he is unfairly persecuted, etc etc.

 

Cult of Trump.  His followers believe everything he says without question and they will defend him no matter how outrageous he is or vile deeds he does.  

 

That’s true to some degree with all politicians. Obama, Hillary, John Edwards, Reagan, the Bushes, they all have had their true believers who refused to believe they could do any wrong.

No...this is a level of cultism unlike anything ever seen in politics before.  No other politician is on record saying he could shoot someone in Times Square and not lose any supporters.  And the sad thing is, Trump is right...he literally could kill people in Times Square and probably all his followers, those corrupt a*holes at FoxNews, would still defend and excuse him.

Literally everyone cut bait on John Edwards, and what he did is pretty much on par with what Trump has done (minus having an affair while his wife was dying). Obama has been criticizes by all sides, as has Hillary. Your argument is pretty weak.

Newt Gingrich leaving his wife while she was on her deathbed is the best Republican analogue for John Edwards, IMO.
