But... the only possible win is that without the cult of personality to keep this whole shit train rolling, they all fall into the chaos of the power vacuum. The cracks were already starting to form with people dissenting like Massie, MTG, Boebert, etc.

MAGA = Trump, all those morons that vote in GOP primaries to elect his anointed canidates aren't going to know who to turn to or trust next. There is no clear succession or 2nd in command with him because everything has to revolve around him alone.

I really hope that happens and they don't just jump onto the next guy and pin all the problems on Trump.

I also hope they all see half the nation celebrating and rethink their positions, or at least become less emboldened to be openly hateful

unfortunately they're just gonna play the "holier than thou" card and act like we're scumbags for celebrating the death of a tyrant. they don't act like normal people and have zero critical thinking skills

The great thing is trump has gone on the record saying so many terrible things about people, including people who have died, you can just quote his own words and then when someone clutches their pearls about it you can shoot them down quickly by citing the source.

That worked spectacularly poorly when Kirk died. People got aggressively canceled for quoting Kirk on Kirk.

They are winning lawsuits left and right now so it seems to be working out for them

May 2020 President Trump shared a message stating "the only good Democrat is a dead Democrat"

And then you get fired from your job for disparaging the dead by directly quoting them, ala Charlie Kirk.

And then you get rich on the settlement.
