Is no one paying attention or does his base see that as a feature? I have seen folks talking about this shit since his first campaign
His cultists have said over and over again that they would vote for him no matter what, no matter what crimes he commits or what piece of the government he dismantles.
Cultists defend their leaders' faults with religious zeal; they're brainwashed, and I don't say that lightly.
Hyperbolic headline. His speeches “aren't demanding the world's attention like they used to.”
I don't see how that makes the headline hyperbolic. His speech is increasing mirroring Hitler, and people aren't paying attention, because his speeches aren't demanding the world's attention.
