    Vance doesn’t have a grip on this idiot minions like Trump does. I also think Russia gave Trump a bunch of dirt on GOP members which he has been more than willing to exploit. I can’t honestly think of any other reason they bend over and take his bullshit.

    Vance is an asshole, and probably a little evil, but he’s also a huge wimp. People will steamroll right over him.

    I think when Trump dies, MAGA will fade away.

        yup. the cult won’t survive the loss of the cult leader. however, the cultists will still remain. 45/47 wasn’t even the cult leader until about 3 years after the cult had started reshaping republican politics. the death of 47 will bring about a great reshuffling, not the permanent end of all human suffering. the things that need doing are for us to educate the children on how to recognize and resist fascism. fascism will remain a threat to all humanity so long as a single person carries its flame in their heart. so learn: authoritarianism is not about the authority (person) it’s about the authoritarians (people). authoritarianism is only made possible by people voluntarily carrying out the actions demanded by dear leader. if you want to stop dear leader you have to gather a coalition of people who believe other things are possible.

      I wish I shared your optimism. It won’t, but time will tell with certainty.
