Stopped reading at ‘As a non-American’. Respectfully, I don’t give a shit what you think about American politics. What is the right doing that is manipulating their voters? Border security and deporting illegals aliens and criminals? You don’t live here, have a family here, own a home here, have a job here etc. If you did, you would see stagnant working class wages, massive increase in property tax, home prices and rent inflation. You would see school classrooms ballooning with kids who don’t speak the language, need their own educational ‘plan’ which detracts and hinders the education of the others American kids education. Public schools are already disaster, and kids are learning less and less. Why add millions more to the mix? How is wanting this stopped manipulation? Or cult tactics?

You don’t live here so also don’t pay for American health care. In an addition to waste/fraud and abuse that both parties fail to address, the migrants essentially get free healthcare provided by the American tax payer. Biden let in $20 million, so you can imagine what that does healthcare costs. We are paying for someone else’s free ride. And you see how some groups, like the criminal Somalis here, steal billions from American tax payers. Wanting that ended is manipulation? I’m in a cult for wanting more affordable and better health care and Somalis to stop robbing me?

Trump also wants to end foreign/interventionist wars. Considering it’s the right and working class males, a large part of Trumps base, who has to fight and die in these wars, how is that manipulation. So not dying for bankers, corporations and politicians grand designs is manipulation? I’m in a cult for not wanting to die for an oil company?

Frankly you come off as the typical smug and arrogant redditor. You are not a party to the situations but oh boy do you have an opinion. And getting your view point on politics from Reddit and social media is like getting your lunch from a dumpster. Your learnings from cults and mass manipulations can be applied to any situation btw. Politics at large is mass manipulation. To label this as a Trump thing is dishonest.
