Trump isn't any different, but he at least has the decency to lie about it. 

I don’t think there’s a Republican candidate in the field who would defend Ukraine

"We have folks in this race who have called Vladimir Putin brilliant, a great leader,” Christie said. "Just yesterday, Donald Trump called him that he was the apple of Putin’s eye. I have to tell you the truth: I don’t want to be the apple of Vladimir Putin’s eye,” 

"A Christie administration would stand up for our friends around the world and work with them,” he added.

I’d guess Haley and Scott would too.

When you have evangelical's saying Jesus was Liberal and Weak. Yeah, it's pretty much a CULT. 

‘Morning Joe’ Debates Whether Trump Followers Are Legitimately in a Cult After ‘Revealing’ New Poll (Video)

New polling out of Iowa on Monday indicated that more than half of Republicans surveyed not only still support Donald Trump after four indictments, but actively believe him over their own loved ones and authority figures. So, on Monday morning, the host of "Morning Joe” wondered whether Trump’s followers are legitimately considered a cult at this point.

In the latest CBS News survey, 71% of likely Trump voters reported that they feel what Trump tells them is the truth, whereas only 63% said they trust friends and family, and 42% said they trusted their religious leaders. And that particular breakdown makes this poll, in Joe Scarborough’s opinion, "one of the most revealing polls in quite some time.”

"This is the most shocking thing coming from the evangelical church,” Scarborough marveled. "Nearly 30% more people blindly follow their cult leader Donald Trump than their own religious leaders. That’s like, please don’t tell me about how this is a Jesus thing. It’s not a Jesus thing, it’s a cult thing when 30% more blindly follow Trump than listen to religious leaders.”

Scarborough also pulled up the definition of a cult leader on Google, which stipulated that they "must be dynamic, charismatic, and convincing” in order to convince people to follow their "teachings and doctrines.”

 

"The funny thing there is it doesn’t really fit there, because Donald Trump doesn’t really have any teaching or doctrine other than ‘Follow me blindly,'” Scarborough sniped.

Panelist Charlie Sykes largely agreed, saying point blank "it is a cult.”

"If you had any doubt that, you know, the Republican base has become this hermetically sealed alternative reality, just look at those numbers,” Sykes said. "It is hard to get your head around, you know, that degree of slavish devotion.”

Host Mika Brzezinski added that the most telling sign that Trump followers are in a cult, for her, is that they refuse to have a conversation in which they are questioned about their beliefs.

"That is what I got last night. And that is a cult,” she said. "When you don’t even want to talk about it, because you believe what you believe, even though you know deep inside it may not be true and you don’t care. You follow blindly. Don’t want to talk about it.”

The religious angle isn't nearly as sad as the the 'Friends and Family' angle.  We already knew they were in a cult but this really shows how truly pathetic that cult is.  Trump's pitch to the country is "come join my movement, alienate yourself from everyone you love and die alone".  Solid.

China can Invade Tawian. What does that tell our allies. This guy is dangerous just like the rest of them.

He's bananas. Somehow Apu is an offensive representation of my people, but this guy is OK.

At least we know he’s not going to give anyone a backhanded compliment.  Hey Vivek, you’re leaving about 25 feet of open court there to your right ….

This is a real mistake for him. Americans want a president that they can catch, if need be. The main reason Obama was so hated. Too elusive on foot.

I thought we wanted someone who could dish out some sweet dimes like this guy?

Funny, but there actually seem to be a sizeable crowd that believes this shows compassion and leadership.

What is not compassionate and leader like about serving up some sweet toilet paper dishes to people who have just lost everything for a photo opp, calling out their leader when they ask for help and putting in unnecessary roadblocks for those people getting aid?
