He's the got ear (and more) of the President of the United States at a time when the Executive Power in the US is the strongest it has ever been, if any "aspiring founder" sees that as a thing not to emulate then they should start thinking about doing something else with their lives.
He has his ear for now, but he can just as easily become his scapegoat. He burned his leftist supporters for good; I agree his position isn't a weak one but I think its best to reserve judgement on whether his moves (->right->X->DOGE) were a smart play or his downfall.
And considering a lot of them probably are aspiring to emulate it, everyone else should be figuring out how to avoid this sort of power consolidation and capture.
