Easy to explain support and appeal of TFG and Herschel Walker despite their peccadilloes:

Not the biblical reference to the faulty King Cyrus.

It doesn't matter what their past transgressions have been.

What matters is what they'll do for republican voters once in office if elected.

Federal ban on abortion? No prob! Outlaw the democratic party? Sure! Arrest students for reading banned books? Absolutely.

I posted the other day.

More:

Mass formation psychosis is when a large part of a society focuses its attention to a leader(s) or a series of events and their attention focuses on one small point or issue. Followers can be hypnotized and be led anywhere, regardless of data proving otherwise.

And those who like violence.

These people are easy to manipulate and are more than able to pull all the political stunts
that pass for GOP leadership these days.
