(59,317 posts)After tRump there are a hundred leaders. Everyone thinks they are an influencer or a force of nature or the true heir or they are just an opportunist seizing an opportunity for personal aggrandizement.
Epstein is not going away and it splits maga.
The pain of economic dislocation will not be fixed by tRump and the economy for the maga tier will continue to get worse with costs rising, especially health care and unemployment. All the wannabes will say "Only I can fix it" but by that point even half of maga will know the RepubliCons have conned them and will stay home.
RepubliCons will be in disarray for quite some time.
One of the hallmarks of a totalitarian dictator is that they keep all their potential heirs close by but in a tier very clearly defined as beneath them by some distance. All together but none are allowed to become too prominent. All are monitored and know they are monitored. Yes men don't step out of line; not even the bellhop with the mascara. So it will be very hard for any wannabes to get traction before or after the event.
