    If you run the clock out on Trump (i.e. he fucking dies of a filet of fish overdose), I suspect his supporters will go in the can right along with him.

    I don’t mean to sound rude, but that is incredibly naive

      Some probably start following his charisma-less kids while others turn into huge desantis fans or something, but the party’s largely over once dear leader is in the ground.

      If democracy is still in place at the time, that’ll mean that those factions will have to choose another guy.

      A cult leader dying is the beginning of the end of the cult. Their power typically doesn’t transfer well to others.
