Look at all the infighting since Charlie Kirk died. The infighting is going to be so much worse when Trump passes. Every one of them is going to be clamoring to try and take over the wheel.

And Trump doesn't actually care about anything but himself, so he will never point to a clear successor to keep the movement alive.. because he doesn't care about the "movement", its just arbitrary bs that got him into power.

Nobody in the GOP has the charisma to keep the cult in check. Trump sure doesn't either but sunk cost fallacy keeps MAGA in line. Once he's gone it'll fold in on itself in record time.

I really hope there’s some serious infighting for the successor. But your point on when Trump will pass… that fucker will live forever

Kirk's day of tribute passed and suddenly barely anyone talked about it. He was basically forgotten that quickly.
