Getting a room of people to cheer for you is definitely not what I mean because literally anyone can do that. Getting people obsessed with you to the point of seeking you out and wanting to attend events where they can cheer for you? That's charisma, and believe me, there is a marked difference between peoples' feelings for someone like Trump and someone like Cruz

See, I think this is where we disagree. I don't feel the loyalty/devotion to Trump is all that special or unique at all, partly because they've shown such a willingness to turn on him already as soon as he steps out of line with what they expect of him, and partly because we've seen many others like him get similar reactions. Trump's is "special" in that he was the President, and he's clearly been chosen to run again. Were it Cruz that became President and did the exact same thing, I'd bet money Cruz would be in the exact same place Trump is right now. Basically, I think Trump is 100% replaceable. It's the messaging, not Trump. Maybe I'm wrong.

Like, if Trump did start pushing vaccines, and touting common sense gun reform, and even the like, I think they dump his ass cold turkey and move on to Cruz, DeSantis, or whoever takes the mantle.
