is a binary choice. To them, to admit Trump is wrong would be an admission that Democrats or Liberals or Hillary Clinton are "right". That can not be in their fantasy world, because their side is the "good guys" and everyone else is the "bad guys". It would take Hannity or Limbaugh or someone to tell them to turn on Trump before they do(and I mean the cultists, not the run-of-the-mill GOPers who held their know and voted for him because of Hillary).
