My definition of worship is calibrated to Trump. It is liking someone for their personality, not their policies or actions.
AOC is worshiped. Bernie less so. Obama a lot more so. However you define Trump worship, you can find (less extreme) parallels on the left.
This is not criticism. The whole job of a politicians is to be worshiped, so that you are given the power to enact your policies.
It's clearly not calibrated Trump. Because I've never seen anyone make a golden idol to Bernie Sanders. Obama hats and flags aren't flying all over my neighborhood. Nobody bases their entire persona around Cortez. So if you're calibrated to Trump your comparison is ridiculous.
From 0 to Trump, this is about a 3.
I'm not claiming the left's worshiping is equivalent to OMGTrumpMAGA, but it undeniably exists.
