He is a master at manipulation and persuasion, and his uneducated, racist, unskeptical, loyal audience--believe his every word, without a shred of evidence. Compare Trumpism to any religion:<br /><br />1. A figurehead, prophet, or deity (Trump) [take your pick]<br />2. An easily-offended, thin-skinned, and neurotic deity<br />3. Motivation by fear (Muslisms, Mexicans, terrorists)<br />4. Numerous contradictions (virtually everything he says)<br />5. Creating an Us versus Them mentality (slay all non-believers!)<br />6. Sell to fantasies and wishful thinking (a wall, anyone?)<br />7. Simple language and parables (repeat it until you believe it)<br />8. Demands loyalty (or be banished forever)<br />9. Faith-based (facts and reason not necessary)<br />10. Women are second-class citizens<br />11. Persuade the uneducated, disenfranchised, and gullible.<br /><br />Low on facts, big on fear, he is a mad prophet telling his flock exactly whatever they want to hear.
