It's a character flaw to idolize anyone.
Sorry, I'll rephrase for clarity: it's only happening on one side. I mean c'mon, the Democrats gave up running an incumbent president because he was obviously not up to the job (read: senile). Trump was never up to the job (read: egomaniacal racist sexist idiotic narcissistic wannabe-dictator) but the Republicans practically broke their necks slipping in their own drool running to nominate him for the third fucking time, even though last time he ran he quite literally tried to start a civil war.
Republicans gave up on writing and voting on a party platform because dementia Don can’t decide what he’s for or against, or at least unable to articulate it in any way that isn’t just sane-washing.
They literally don’t stand for anything anymore except whatever his latest ramblings are.
I mean, did he even show up for a single Republican primary debate? I don't actually know, I get my comedy from podcasts and YouTube videos and stuff.
AOC has a lot of people idolizing her in between all the weirdos sexualizing her
But definitely, the left does that to a lower degree than the cult
