Is the cult of trumpism really any different from pyramid schemes or the nutty megachurches?

I suspect there are big overlaps among all three - and to my eyes, all of them are essentially cults.

Where is all of this madness among our country's population coming from????

Soon there will be far less people NOT involved one of these three types of cults than in them.

Even more concerning - that's a whole hell of a lot of people who need deprogramming!

4. Three major similarities

1. People who think they have it all figured out and that everyone else is screwed

2. Seeing the world as a zero sum game where their have to be winners and losers. And then choosing the side that tells you are a winner.

3. People looking for easy answers

6. Well stated.
