A large part of his rally audience are these lunatics who follow him around like the Grateful Dead. It’s about 500 people, last I checked. They were the only ones who showed up at his rally in Brooklyn, for example.
So those people are all in and don’t care about the reality of who this demented old fascist is. They are just in the cult, and will mainline the lies until they die.
But I wonder … the people who are not that deep into the cult, yet, but who only get their news from Trump’s propagandists are likely seeing who he really is for the very first time. Does it shock them at all to see the feeble, weak, confused old man, when they are expecting the powerful, messianic figure invented by the Magaverse?
I wonder what that’s like for them, and if it affects their unwavering support, when they see him glitch out, ramble on about nonsense, and demand that they reject the evidence of their lying eyes and ears.
Probably not, but I still wonder if there’s anything about him that can change their minds.
