The last election they have a chance at winning before MAGA impodes
trump may be done after this but I don't think MAGA is going anywhere.
There's no apparent successor and there hasn't been any attempt by Trump to nudge anyone towards that (he doesn't give a shit about a post-Trump lanscape), but a half dozen people would attempt to claim it as their own, so if MAGA does survive it'd probably be really messy for a while.
Normally we use conventions for this kind of thing but they'd be competing against traditional Republicans in that space, so I'm expecting to see MGT and DJT and Boebert and a bunch of others just try to pull each other's hair out, like an obscenely wealthy grandparent that had no will and no clear next of kin.
The heirarchal structure is basically Donald so the risk of the entire collective decapitating itself is pretty high

Can we lock them in a coliseum and toss in a few lions?
the more lions the better
Gaetz and MTG are batting .500 for ousting their own party's house speaker. I don't think we'll need a coliseum, just C-Span lol
It'll just rebrand itself the same way it went from Tea Party to MAGA
The thing about that is that it'd require cohesion and unity across all Republicans, and it seems like Trump himself is the only one seemingly able to pull this off.
The Whigs tore themselves apart in similar manner and all it'd take is a third of Republicans to back some group of MAGA (or rebranded) politicians who decide to stay on the ballot as third party. There are already multiple factions under the 'R' namesake and it'd just take a little pull in opposite directions. They're a stubborn bunch
Trump's got kids ya know.
I know. Will they work together or back an outsider of a presumptive nominee such as MTG? Or will they all just duke it out while a more mainstream Republican capitalizes on the dysfunction? We'll find out soon enough
they won't necessarily need to duke it out if Sr unequivocally endorses and campaigns for one.
He's a Trumpian style candidate
*Some talking head in the future
We will never be rid of this style of ass hat.
Considering the civil war did not end the idea of the confederation you are probably right.
Yeah, people have said this after many elections, and it's never true because there are only two parties, so neither one will ever go away so long as we maintain a two party system.
True, but from what I see, no one seems to love the others nearly as much as Trump for some weird reason. Every other evil person they throw up there doesn't seem to get the same attention, thankfully. I hope it stays that way...
This is kinda a natural result of authoritarian structures going back millennia. It's a big king of the hill game, because nobody up top is really in it for the movement, they're in it for themselves.
I would point to the old monarchies of Europe as an excellent example of this all playing out though, with a huge number of individual data points to work with.
Avoiding this whole mess is one of the primary purposes of democratic forms of government.
I think that will change in the absence of Trump as a candidate, especially if he throws his weight behind one of his kids.
