Within the close to decade that Trump has been on the nationwide scene, there was numerous criminality and numerous weirdness. The way in which that Trump and MAGA hyped the return to Butler made this really feel like some kind of non secular ceremony.
The Trumps themselves invoked non secular imagery all through the occasion, with Trump even speaking about MAGA angels.
The important thing level to remove from Butler is that Trump and MAGA are determined true believers who will do something to get again into the White Home, and can take a powerful majority of People to show them away.
