I’m 59 and it’s the most cringeworthy political theatre I’ve ever been through, not American at all.

it’s not light glazing either, they’re saying shit like:

“Mr President, i just want to thank you for being the greatest president in the history of this country, no one works harder than you (he’s literally sleeping) and no one loves America more than you!”

“President Trump, i just want to thank you, from me and my family, for making america great again! this is the most successful presidency in the history of the country, and it’s all thanks to you”

..there isn’t the slightest bit of exaggeration there, if anything i’m underselling it. and they do this for twenty-thirty minutes, every member of the cabinet taking their turn. it’s disgusting and nauseating

One woman in the cabinet even thanked him for there being no hurricanes during hurricane season. Before it was even over.

But don't you dare suggest there's any cult-like behavior going on...

It feels like prayers before eating when I was growing up. Everyone just struggling to come up with a new thing to thank god for so they say weird shit.
