→Now CTH is calling him a fraud
:You seem to be under the impression Trumpism, the MAGA movement, or America First is some sort of cult. [[User:RobSmith|RobS]]<sup>[[User talk:RobSmith|Let's Go Brandon!]]</sup> 20:27, February 20, 2022 (EST)

::To some extent, it is. Just like all political movements with a central figurehead, be it Clinton or Sanders or Biden, and yes, DeSantis. In fact, the cult following the DeSantis has been gathering is what made me suspicious of his motives in the first place.--[[User:Geopolitician|Geopolitician]] ([[User talk:Geopolitician|talk]]) 22:42, February 20, 2022 (EST)

:::Central figure? It's only a central figure cause you perceive it as such. I rarely see you being able to discuss policy or ideas without making conflicting and contradictory claims, even if it means demonizing leftist figures such as Zbigniew Bziezinski.
:::You arguments and premises always appear leftist in nature. You begin by targeting an upcoming leader on the Right whom you consider to have followers and adherents, and then trash him. You toss in an old dried or decayed leftist like Hillary or Brzezinski for pretend balance. But you can't make a consistent or coherent argument for your thinking. This is the fundamental difference between leftists and rightists - leftist are seeking a messiah for personal salvation and salvation of the planet (cause they obviously reject Christ) and conservatives are more interested in ideas. Sure, your rhetoric seems intelligent and informed, but it always begins with demonization of persons and never with with discussion of a policy issue or idea. I'm assuming this is a Clintonism (the politics of demonization) you picked up as a young impressionable person in the 1990s cause of what appeared to you as their apparent success, both in winning elections and attacking their opponents. This type are a dime a dozen now, and we're already on the second generation of them with Russia hoaxers like Lisa Page and Peter Strzok who felt it incumbent on themselves to remove a Republican president from office and decided to read historical fiction like ''All the President's Men'' to figure out how.
:::Look, I've seen all this leftist crap during Watergate, during Iran-Contra, in the 1990s, and now. It gets old and tiresome. You need to become more inventive in this field of operational political intelligence. And it begins by educating yourself, and focusing on, issues and ideas, not persons.
