This remains to be seen.

Teabaggers (www.teaparty.org) always accuse democrats of being communist.

Meanwhile, disregarding their dear leaders love of communist dictators.

Congratulations to President Xi and the Chinese people on the 70th Anniversary of the People’s Republic of China!

Why should I care what you wish for?

You raised a fair question. Going to make another comment on it.

A vivid example of Trump thinking outside the box was his hairbrained idea of storming the Capitol building to prevent the Senate from rubber stamping Biden's election. First, it couldn't work as anyone with merely cursory knowledge of The Constitution could have told him. Second, it was a preconceived criminal act. Trump knew the Senate was in closed session, knew the building itself was closed and locked so could only be entered by breaking in, which would necessarily include attacking the Capitol police who were guarding the place. In a sane universe he would be out of political business, but this is America.

I've been to virtually every eastern European country back in the early 90s on business. Seen how Communism operated for real, only idiots that have never seen it would advocate for its return.

Prague was falling apart back then, it was so bad they had to have covered walkways to stop people dying from falling masonry. The pollution was so bad due to cars, like the Trabant, and diesel trucks. Mind you, you could shit faced for just over a pound in some parts of town.

He has never told the truth in his life. He's a proven con man. He routinely stiffed contractors and other businesses on payments. He made fun of a disabled guy. He disparaged POW's and the military. He hates women. He swindled supporters out of hard-earned cash with a classic fine-print grift that automated contributions. He insulted the wives, fathers and other family of allies in his own party. He incited an insurrection with lies. He led the bogus and racist birther movement.

He's a pathetically insecure man, with no real vision or courage. We've never had someone with such a frail ego leading a national party.

Generally, when a candidate loses a Presidential election, their party moves on without looking back. That candidate is usually marginalized and forgotten.

But not Trump. As Graham stated, there really is no GOP without him anymore. The party is a cult of personality.

Why is that? Can anyone explain Trump?

I think Republicans in general, and conservative message board posters in particular, see part of themselves in the petulant, racially resentful, and pathologically dishonest Trump; they see him as a soul mate of sorts.
