The article scrutinizes the political climate in America, particularly focusing on the Republican Party's submission to a cult-like following under the current administration. It discusses the disconnect between political survival tactics of Republican leaders and their acceptance of degrading behavior. Additionally, the author expresses bewilderment at the fetishism surrounding the president, likening the imagery and merchandise to religious iconography, questioning the motivations behind such devotion from followers. Overall, the piece highlights a cultural and political crisis within American conservatism.
