In all of my years on this earth, and more specifically my years as a political reporter, I have never in my life seen a politician with a base that is as pandering, sycophantic, and frankly pathetic as the one belonging to Donald Trump. I have never and will never understand that.
While it’s certainly true that the disgraced, one-term, twice-impeached former guy’s band of supporters does seem to get smaller and smaller with each passing day, there’s just no denying that those of them who are left are not just blindly, sickening devoted to him — they’re genuinely obsessed.
They do not question him. They do not hold him accountable or keep him in check. They do not dare to even disagree with him. They simply pull the wool tightly over their eyes, slap on a pair of rose-colored glasses, and proceed to stoop to their knees and lick his high-heeled shoes like a good little… Well…
Think I’m over exaggerating?

Katie Arrington is a GOP congressional candidate in South Carolina, where the ex-president just so happens to be holding one of his rallies tonight.
Trump endorsed Arrington, who has previously served in Congress but was beat by her Democratic opponent in 2018, back in February, saying Katie is “liked and respected and a true Republican. Katie is a wonderful woman and has my Complete and Total Endorsement.”
Arrington has already secured a Trump-backing in the upcoming election. But when it comes to Donald Trump, the ass-kissing is expected for all of eternity.
Clearly.
Ahead of Trump’s South Carolina speech tonight, Arrington took to the stage to psych up the crowd, where she ultimately referred to Donald Trump as “big daddy.”
“Who is excited to see Donald J. Trump?” Katie yelled from the podium as the wind tried to blow her off stage. “I’ve been waiting a couple of weeks to see big daddy come home.”
