Putin mentored Trump? When pray tell did that happen?
Hundreds and hundreds of mental health professionals have diagnosed Trump as a sociopathic narcissist? Is there a source for this wild claim? Hundreds and hundreds?
Half the nation is in a cult? Tens of millions of people?
I am curious: are we using English properly?

Just taking one piece of your bad faith nonsense, 67% of Americans
identify as Christian, meaning well over half the nation are in at least one
cult.

67% -- otherwise known as "an embattled minority".

Encouraging. Quite a drop from 91% in 1976. Mind you, Christian numbers could be increasing, but outpaced by an influx of “others”.

I'm surprised it is even 67%.

I assume there are Biden-Harris supporters who identity as Christian. Biden himself identifies as one, so does Harris - a Baptist.
Does that mean that those who voted for Harris, and Biden before her, voted for placing a cult member in the White House?

He didn't literally sit him down in a classroom, but Trump certainly has Putin-style propaganda coming out of his mouth.
Putin claimed millions of Ukrainians want to be part of Russia despite the obvious evidence to the contrary. Trump claims Canadians want to join America, despite the obvious evidence to the contrary.
Putin's racketeering stance on Ukraine is that the people of Ukraine will be secure under Russia. Trump's racketeering stance on Canada is that Canadians would be TOTALLY SECURE as part of America.
Putin talked to Tucker Carlson about Ukraine being an artificial state. Trump talks about the border with Canada being an "artificially drawn line".
There are many other parallels.
Except Putin doesn't think George Washington and the Continental Army won the War of Independence by taking over the airports.

To claim that Putin was Trump's mentor is - to put it mildly - a bridge too far.
The rest? It is like someone saying "Trump wear socks." "Putin wears socks." "They are the same." These are connecto conspiracy theories.
It is the same with the cult stuff. If it is true that Christianity is a cult, and Trumpers are a cult, then we had a choice between two cult candidates (because Harris is a Baptist) for president in 2024.
I am more and more proud I decided I could not vote for either cult member/leader.

If I had the choice to amputate a cancerous toe or allow cancer to spread
throughout my body, the choice would seem obvious.

Trump has literally been mentored by Putin since he was elected in 2016.
By 2019, the two world leaders had interacted face-to-face in five different
locations since Trump took office in January 2017. Sometimes they sat
down for extensive private conversations; other times it was less covert. Per
the Post, no substantial record of any of them exists. Trump went to
extreme lengths to conceal or limit access to information about his in-
person meetings with Putin, instructing records to be destroyed and
preventing translators to reveal what topics were discussed. Then, during
the 2024 campaign news came of at least 7 more private conversations
between the former KGB agent and the most corrupt and over-confident
man to ever be POTUS. Following these meetings, Trump’s adoption of
Kremlin style attacks against the free press, rule of law, govt institutions
and destabilizing culture-war topics became more focused and, on
occasion, would even reverse (as he did on Tik Tok, electric cars, and
crypto).
Trump has a long detailed history of currying Putin’s favor and being in debt
to Russian support.
Trump’s presidency now must be recognized as emulating Orban,
Yanukovich, and other Putin Puppets who destroyed their own democracies
from within. Trump stands to become the richest man in the world once he
completes the U.S. transformation into a gangster state like Putin’s Russia.
Why wouldn’t he study at Putin’s feet?
