Backs up Michael Penn's point above about how Trump has lost a step (or fifty). He's long been a bit stream-of-consciousness, but it sounds like it's shifted gear.

  If you try to refute any of this factually with statistics, it does not matter, they are cultists and those stats were made up by the "deep state" to make Trump look bad.

In my lifetime Reagan was probably the most polular US President and I don't recall Republicans worshipping him at the altar. It's silly and scary at the same time.

Herman Cain was an idiot and an asshole - aka a typical Republican politician. His 9,9,9 tax idea was stupid, because 9% to the rich is nothing, but its a problem for the other classes. And he once said something to effect of it being everyone's own fault if they aren't rich.

Let me remind everyone that when Rick Perry ran for President, he actually called Social Security an entitlement program. That pretty much sums up the GOP's feelings toward the non-wealthy.
