Personally, I feel like this gets to me because all the other guys you named never did anything I agreed with. Trump drives me nuts because I really like more than half the things he is doing, but sometimes he scares the shit out of me.

As much as I hate the "Trump is Hitler" crap, I do assign a non-zero probability to Trump actually being Hitler.
There's probably something deep, historical, and cyclical about people pining for a strongman when existing leadership is completely failed

Yes, this is terrible, I have not read the article, and am ignorant about the context, but I suspect it has to do with the anti-Israel protests in the US universities?
Personally, I have only one single item in my Trump wishlist: de-escalation and withdrawal from Ukraine. Anything else (MAHA, DEI, DOGE etc) is just a bonus...

Yeah, I feel ya. I feel that too. I feel it when I'm around die hard supporters.
