It’s not just him - he’s literally a figure head. It’s the fascists behind him - the tech oligarchs, the Koch oligarchs, the insane Christian nationalist oligarchs, the corrupt scotus. They will send the orange Nazi on permanent vacation soon

I have thought that was the plan, but it’s problematic because the rally going cult fans are not likely to be so devoted to the smug & patronizing JD. Plus, by then they will be noticing all the damage he’s doing to the VA, their Social Security & Medicare. And they are a big part of “the base.” 🤔
More likely what will happen is that Trump will become a figurehead and, over time, his public appearances will gradually be reduced for "security" reasons. The Christo-fascists will continue to pull the strings behind the throne, all while maintaining the fiction that Trump is in charge.
Possibly. But he needs attention pathologically, so I don’t think he’ll go quietly away. If there’s a microphone & camera & a willing reporter, he is happy to spout word salad.
Unfortunately, plenty of his sycophants-greedy for power, privilege & money-already have their hands all over things.😬
They'll find a way to manage him and his ego. They'll have him living in the delusion that he is the supreme leader, worshipped by the nation. The people behind him are far more intelligent and dangerous than he is, they won't allow his need for attention to get in his way.
I think you are right. There is no successor, much like with Hitler. After he supposedly killed himself (I believe he ran, narcissists don’t ever kill themselves) a bunch of them tried to grab the crown, but nobody had that hypnotism that Hitler had. I’m seeing something similar here.
It’ll be too late by the time they realize they are just as hated as the rest of us. They’ll need to go through the cognitive dissonance all of us are currently dealing with. And even with us, it seems to be taking its sweet time (considering the seriousness of the situation).
Oh who knows. But I do think that Grampa Golf has fans who are totally taken in by his “persona.” He’s a conman & they are his marks, but that’s another story. By contrast, JD has all the charisma of a dirty old shoebox. I just can’t imagine the fan club latching onto him the way they have Trump. 🤷🏻♀️
What “they” believe in and what will happen are not the same. Do you really think these bastards who if they have not already, will commit massive crimes (against humanity will be international) and full on treason, will give up power ? - I think not
They will not
I wish for T what I wish for everyone: to one night just slip peacefully away in his sleep. If anything else happens to him, they will use his elevation to martyr and turn him into a marketing angle for the new MAGA. They'll set up shrines.
Having spent time on Truth Social I'd agree. People don't just throw the word "cult" around for sport, it is a cult. Managing Trump's departure would require Trump to buy into it.
That's right. He's just the shoehorn. He creates a lot of noise and distraction and genuine harm, while the allied P2025-Kremlin long game, and opportunistic techbro Yarvinists along for the ride dismantle democracies.
This is their big chance to collapse as much as they can, and install "kings"
I wonder about that. I think what you say is true for sure, but Trump really does have a cult following and MAGAs could flip on anyone else like Vance in an instant if Trump tells them to.
