If the leader is forgiven for saying and doing things, that nobody else would ever be forgiven for, it is a cult.
Law 27 Addendum:
Cult Like Behavior:
-The leader is forgiven for doing and saying things, that nobody else would be forgiven for
-The group has a message that is fantastical, and vague. It is vague enough such that each follower can imagine what they want to imagine.
MAGA fits this description...
-Donald Trump is routinely forgiven for doing and saying things that no other American Politician would be forgiven for (Hollywood Access Tape being the most infamous example).
-"Make America Great Again" is the perfect slogan, since it is...
very positive, and very vague; vague enough such that every potential voter can imagine a version of America where life for them is great.
Law 27 Addendum:
Cult leaders are often narcissistic men, and this is because narcissistic men are often very good at appealing to the masses (people with IQs below 120).
MAGA fits the bill on this metric;
Donald Trump displays every warning sign of
narcissistic personality disorder.

My own real world application (Machiavellian Execution) of this knowledge was mainly in the business world, and in managing the politics of my own family.
