Oh, no, it's super important. If this was some deranged nutto writing and issuing orders, it'd die with him. But he's just the face of it all, and the thing that scares me the most is that all the enablers and puppet masters are already planning and laying groundwork for when Cheeto Jesus drops dead. We've already lost the battle, let's not lose the war.

Their success in some way is tied to trump right now. Nobody else seems to captivate his base in the same way, and they've made most of this about a man and less about a movement. So it's entirely possible this dies when he does.


Depends how the next generation of MAGAs works. The republican party is full of them who are backing Trump all the way. The only opposition seem to be bond traders.

The great thing about wannabe dictators is they don't allow the new generation the space to grow and take over, so there's no clear line of succession (Vance doesn't have it yet)

But the democrats seem completely at a loss, and the mid terms are only 18 months away.


The civil war between the competing factions behind the scenes when he kicks it should at least make for some good entertainment. So we have that to look forward to.

I expect it to make the film Death of Stalin look like a depiction of an amiable, staid, and sensible process purely in service of the public good, by comparison.


Do you really believe that there were no enablers and puppet masters before this administration? Serious question, and this has nothing to do with claims that Biden was mentally unfit for the office.


Project 2025 is called Project 2025 for a reason. It isn't Project 2017.


Even if there were, what is your point? It seems to me that lot of people have never heard of “two wrongs don’t make one right” and resort to whataboutism as if they are making some thoughtful comment. And no, “just asking questions” isn’t a great point either.


Who said it was 2? I'm suggesting this has been a problem a very long time.
