Comment on President Trump reacts to President Biden’s cancer diagnosis: "I don't feel sorry for him"

Trump dying will not stop this. He’s a carnival barker and is not really in charge.

I really hope his death is very slow, very painful, and very public. I want him to drag his cursed movement down with him. If he abruptly dies, he’ll be a martyr that bolsters this movement, and that would be worse.

Trump’s perverted brand of charisma is what propelled him to the two-time presidency. It was glaringly obvious in 2017, when the rest of Republicans started competing in who can best emulate his assholery.

Trump dying will not stop this. He’s a carnival barker and is not really in charge.

But he’s the one they’re all unifying behind.

Once he’s gone, everybody else is going to be clamoring to become the next Trump, the next leader of the right wing. And this competition will divide them and turn them against one another. No more cooperation, no more covering for each other’s crimes – they’ll be at each other’s throats, throwing each other under the bus.

Eventually one will probably come out on top, but until then, the infighting over the power vacuum will cripple them.

  it will be fun to watch all these right wing grifters infighting as well.

  I dunno, the bus is public transportation. Aren’t republicans against that? Throw each other under a cybertruck, maybe.

  I’m not sure people are acknowledging the amount of money and slavery are behind this movement.

  The last major infight was 16 years ago.
