sorry start speculating so early, but I’m really curious
like, who the hell will Republicans run next? Their Trump card is used up (fuck you I won’t apologize for that). I don’t really see anyone else with his broad appeal to take the mantel. Like, maybe some figure in this upcoming administration emerges, but… I don’t really see how. Seems like they’re stuck running just another party apparatchik.
...
The liberals in the walls whisper, they say “Trump is gonna install himself as lifelong dictator! Vance will inherit the throne! It’s the end of US democracy!!!”
i remember when my grandpa said the dems were gonna crown Obama as king.
And in that case… Dems might actually feel like they have to do a real campaign, rather than just bang the “orange fascist” gong a bunch more.
jd vance wins, usa continues gradually balkanizing

2028: Trump vs Obamna
Bush family 2.0 Idiot son/daughter propped up to continue daddy’s image. 100% guided by puppet strings from the Heritage foundation.
If it’s not Vance, it’ll be some other Koch/Mercer/Theil-backed candidate. They’ve got plenty of them out there building up careers.
It’s not so much that I don’t think there aren’t other’s who are eager to take is place, it’s that I don’t think they have the television zeal to satisfy his audience.
Hmm, we’ll see. I think there’s so many grifters out there cutting their teeth and four years for them to openly go mask off that I doubt it’s gonna be an issue. A lot of the dc assholes started toning down their rhetoric over Jan 6 and all the legal cases. Now that’s no longer an issue, I think the next four years are gonna be like some fucked up right wing reality show to get his blessing. And of course the media will happily give them a platform while clutching their pearls.
