...
The only word(s) I can come up with to describe how I feel about this would be ...
Perplexed.
Shocked.
No. Aghast maybe.
No.
Sad.
Yes.
This makes my heart sink.
This guy, for better but definitely for worse, seems to be sincere. This IS his reality. He damn near died for trump. So bereft about losing his boat that he considered going down with the ship. Or so he says, anyway.
I fear for our country that there is actually this level of reality-avoidance. That there actually are people who feel this way about the donald. And who would put themselves in literal physical danger to salute him.
Is that what you call a "cult following"? Yeah, I guess so.
Was there a weather report about risky boating weather there? If so, did he or any of these other nuts bother to consult one?
I fear for our country.
This is really distressing. I just hope to Dear Lord God that these folks stay in the minority.
