    I’ve said before- the best damage control they could possibly do, is to throw fueher trump under the bus. Because they’re seeing now- the results of their decision to circle the wagons.

      Yeeaaaahhh, doesn’t matter. I still want to see each and everyone that profited from trumps crimes in anyway locked up.

      IIRC it mentions right in the article nobody else can really cleanly replace him. There’s tons of different subfactions with different ideas and the personality cult is the main thing holding them together.

      I suppose if Vance could get enough signatures to declare Trump unfit for office, he’d have a decent opening to consolidate power. If.

        Yeah, how many people in his movement change their mind, how many decide it’s all fake news, and how many decide it’s just the cost of doing business is a real question.

        People outside the MAGA movement have already been sidelined, of course.

          it’s so obvious what’s about to go down, when trump finally croaks (or in the unlikely event R’s grow a pair of testicles and finally turn on trump).

          those old guard ghouls of the previous establishment republicans will crawl out of the woodworks, with many establishment neolib dem hands helping them along the way. like those of their billionaire buddies Newsom and Pritzer, who have had so much media success “keeping it real” vs. trump (all while ICE rips into their poor communities unfettered).

          establishment R and establishment D will come out in force to impose order, attempt to reign in that conservative propaganda machine, placate progressives away from true reform etc. in the vain hope of trying to return to that unsustainable constant ratfuckery

          and the worse part is it’ll probably work
