That is sadly true.
The Republican Party has become the cult of Trump.
Aside from a few exceptions, one has to be a Trump bootlicker to have any chance of winning.
I agree that this kind of personality cult which ignores or completely distracts from the issues/voting records/policies of the candidates (something that is probably hurting Republicans a little in this race) is unfortunate and not healthy in any political system. You can tell Perdue’s only doing it to save his job, and I honestly feel a little sorry for him (although I know you guys don’t ).
It kinda reminds me of when McSally said something like "I don't talk to fake news" when asked by CNN's Manu Raju about the impeachment proceedings.
It was like a middle-schooler trying to act tough in front of the cool kids.
Even the Kamala mispronunciation thing from Perdue sounded like a 14 year old trying to be bad.
