your right, trump ain't perfect but guess what, no one else is either. god uses imperfect people because that's all there are. and there is no cult. i'm so tired of hearing that. any time people decide they've had enough and want to fight back against what's wrong, it's called a cult. wts?

and the reason foreign leaders didn't like Trump was because they couldn't Push him around. 

Perhaps some "failures" are more critical than others.

Trump's "imperfection" centered his lack of character, honesty, and the kind of background knowledge one needs to run a superpower. 

The "cult" label gets attached to Trump followers because they follow a leader without question, and they are ready to set aside
democratic governance to keep him. The more he breaks the law, the more they love him. Like cult followers, they deny the leader's wrong
doing and project great evil upon the normal, competent people who oppose him. Like cult followers, they learn not to listen to "outsiders" who see the leaders flaws plainly. 

Finally, AUTOCRATIC foreign leaders DID like Trump. He weakened U.S. power and credibility, especially among allies. Start with Putin, then Kim, then Duterte in the Philipines, Orban in Hungary, Erdogan in Turkey and Bolsonaro in Brazil. They didn't want to "push him around"; they wanted him to keep breaking things. Putin got Trump to side with him against U.S. Intel agencies and even obstruct sanctions on Russia. No president has ever been so openly manipulated by an adversary. 

Trump support is not about "fighting back against what's wrong" if "wrong" is defined by RWM and politicians to protect THEIR interests, not their constituencies'--even to the point of scrapping democracy.
