Trump, Saving and Rebuilding Rome

PERHAPS THE GREATEST MYSTERY in human history, a mystery often discussed and analyzed nearly ad infinitum, is why Trump has any political supporters, let alone tens of millions. Also, its among histories most relevant, important questions, mysteries. Millions of people wrestle with this repeatedly, some, consantly, including myself. I'd like to understand the creation of the universe, and Donald Trump's support, not necssarily in that order. "I want to know God's thoughts, the rest are mere details", said Einstein. Of even greater value to me, at least for the time being, would be knowing MAGAt thoughts. The idea of a greatly benevolent person, a savior, is, quite obviously, as old as human culture, or nearly so. What's better is when said savior acually appears in the flesh, in human form,rather the remaining aloof and ensconced on Mt. Olympus, or Valhalla, Or somewho up in the sky, as described by holy scripture. There's just something extra special about a God taking human form, coming to Earth as one of us, walking and talking to us, healing the sick, or repairing teh fatherland country through total, complete, enlightened leadership. Julius Caser, when he entered Romewith his after conquering Gaul and suggested that it might be effacious for the citizens of Roem to accpet him as Imperitor, Emporer of Rome by divine right, all the instruments and organs of government bundled into a single bundle, a "fasci", in his holy hands. It was an offer they couldn't refuse. The Roman Senate, the courts, both tribunes and both consuls remained in existence, giving Rome executive and legislateve republican governance. They all still existed, in theory and in spirit, only, entirely embodied in and incorporated in the holy corpus of His Regal Majesty, Julius Caesar. The Magnificent Roman republic, gone with the wind in a whim. Thus was invented fassicm, in a bundle of sticks tied together. Concentraion of power. Twentieth century fascism evolved to fit modern times,and control of the media, suppression of the education system, the endless hyper patriotic our glorious leader propagnada drivel...all that ensuing. Hitler and MUssolini had the dutting egde technology radio;Trump has big screen TV and internet social media. So Trump is teh heri apparante to Caeser and Hitler, the divine savior warrior-king. I have always fantasized and I still do,about unimagineably, incredibly advanced and infinitely wise extraterrestrials descending from the sky like in "Close Encounters of the Third Kind" (one of my favorite movies), and fixing everything. I bring this fantasy alive within my burning breat...daily? Yes,I want my savior too. Its just that, in my case, when I look around, I don't see a stinking huan being on this Earth I would want for my savior. Call me "picky". Intergalactically "Hoity toity",perchance? Nay, none of the above; I simply have high standards...Just how in the hell the savior came to be Trump is the next great. mystery. I actually think all the criminality and debauchery helps. Remember,its a obout power, and wielding it. Just think about all the petty, theatrical dislays of barbaric cruely rendered unto humanity and members thereof by Yahweh, Jehovah, Elohim, in the wholly barbaric Holy Bible. Take your pick. Prove your loyalty and obedience to me, oh Abraham, by slicing your own son to death. I, your loving compassionate Almighty God, will take the sheep in the bush instead. So far Trump has done all the things a good fascist salvation figure does, with one exception. He has smitten his and thus his country's enemies, but, --and this is a big but-- he hasn't even begun demanding blood sacrifices from his worshippers.
