In this paper, I argue that current president Donald Trump has formed a cult of personality around himself through the "Make America Great Again" Movement. The movement follows four pillars of a cult: deliberate creation by a leader, use of media and symbolism to propagandize, religious assimilation, and centralization of worship onto one individual.
