What a strange comment, as it's entirely ignorant of the most basic Biblical knowledge, history itself, and the utterly sycophantic behavior displayed all over the right wing normie sphere about Trump.
The first 3 commandments in the 10 commandments are explicitly about condemning this behavior. If this behavior wasn't common, why did God enumerate 3 rules to forbid it? People put false saviors up on pedestals and worship them, all the time. People worship at the feet of idols, both physical (golden calf, star of Remphan, Baal, Moloch, etc.) and ideological (egalitarianism, equality, LGBTQ, race blindness, feminism, abortion, etc.), that they put these things "before" God, all the time. "Before" doesn't mean hierarchically placing it above God in importance, but "before" as in front of, and since God is everywhere, worshipping these false idols is condemned entirely. And, taking the name of our Lord in vain is to profess to be Christian, while continuing to do unChristian things explicitly forbidden (like idol worship).
This aspect of human behavior has been common for thousands of years. It's still incredibly common today, including among right wing Christians who treat Trump as a holy savior who can do no wrong. Go look at the normie side of right wing politics, like on Patriots.win, Facebook, and the normie corner of Gab. They ALL worship Trump, and if anyone criticizes him in any way, even when he's blatantly and repugnantly wrong, they accuse you of being a shill. This isn't random or rare behavior either. It's incredibly common.
