I’m not sure who would rise up to the level of his TV personality right now. I’m sure there are people who will try to emulate him like Desantis tries to. There will be blustery conservatives but they’re much more like dickhead middle management than someone who will rally the unwashed masses. Republicans will have to lean harder on “the liberal agenda” as a bogeyman rather than having a candidate who pisses off the opposition so badly. However, They will be able to go back to reliable apathy from the left once he’s gone.
we won’t know what charismatic leaders are available to fill the vacuum when he’s gone, until he’s gone. smart face eating leopards don’t put a target in your back when the host of the leopards eating faces party is a decade at most away from expiring. especially not when he could still win tomorrow. they wait for the odds of success to improve. the klan hasn’t made it this far or survived this long by accident.
Trump become more famous at the end of the broadcast TV era. Millions of people watched the apprentice on a weekly basis. There’s nobody with that amount of reach anymore.
i truely hope you end up being right. nothing would make me happier than having the american conservative movement fumbling for few election cycles. one of his kids trying to take control of the republican party without his cult following would be a welcome respite. but this cycle will keep repeating. until we deal with the underlying cultural issues that had half our neighbors lacking the empathy to put on a fucking cloth mask just incase it could help even one extra person survive. but they* went around coughing on people and laughing about it instead.

Their second best is JD Vance.
