If saying he looks like Elvis is damaging to him when trying to overthrow the country didn't, that will be weird.

It is entirely within expectations of the fucked up timeline we've found ourselves in, though.

Call for treason and insurrection? Uproarious Cheering.

Fuck children? Endless defense and excuses (and cheering)

Wants to fuck his own daughter? "Well hell yeah, I'd fuck my daughter too if she looked like Ivanka!" - Disturbing number of republicans when looking at a pre-teen picture of her.

But say you look like Elvis? Oh my god, thats just so inhuman and so far fetched.

Politics works under WWE rules now. Trump is the heel they like. As long he's doing fucked up shit to the face characters, they keep on cheering.

Him trying to be a face character is bad because people only like him for being the heel.

But say you look like Elvis? Oh my god, thats just so inhuman and so far fetched.

Is there any evidence that anyone who cheered for him in the above is in that boat? I'm pretty sure it's a subset of the people upset about the treason, sexual assault, seemingly incestuous desires. Because speaking as someone who finds Trump utterly despicable, I fail to see why in the world I should care that he is vain enough to declare himself like Elvis. That's utterly harmless narcissism on normal scales, let alone grading on the Trump curve.

Dude might lose his presidential run because he pissed of Taylor Swift fans. This time line is nothing but weird.

Not really. His followers revere him because they believe his is so strong. Pretty much the only strategy that can work against him is to make them believe he is failing or is becoming a joke. When they become embarrassed about him.
