I recall him having to be shamed into paying $25k he promised to a veteran over a phone call. And $25k should be pocket change to the man. These are things that actually happened. Yet no dissent from the cult.

Perhaps the cult didn't hear about it in the first place. As elsewhere, they tend to reflect what they are told, in seeking out the news and talk outlets that tell them what they want to hear more than what they need to know.
Unlike David Brooks in this a.m.'s NYT, Trump has never invaded my brain because Trump is simply the fever that reflects a much deeper illness. The issue that concentrates my brain is that tens of millions of voters have been so indoctrinated by the dis-information industry that they are no longer grounded in reality. Trump's behavior, hideous as it is, is only possible because these voters have lost their way. "A democratic republic requires a well-informed electorate." James Madison
He can be, but it takes a lot of sustained shaming. For what I had read of past business issues, he will buckle over and had in a few instances, but it required sustained and increasing pressure. Most people/organizations don't have the time or money.

They probably didn't hear about it. But if they did, that's when the rationalizations kicked in.
I didn't think he could be shamed into doing anything.
He is not conscious of shame, but of bad p.r.

He was also shamed into actully giving money to a military/veteran's group that he said he was going to give money to. $4 million, if I recall.
Yet the cult believes that he's done more for veterans than all other presidents combined!
Used the ploy to dodge a Town Hall in '16.
