    It would change a LOT. MAGA is a classic Cult of Personality, revolving around Trump and NOBODY else. There isn’t even a clear #2, with several people who are going to feel entitled to automatically take over, and many who feel they should be the successor.

    Meanwhile, the people love Trump, and NOBODY else. They will NOT transfer their loyalty to anyone else. They may try to play along for a while, but their hearts won’t be in it, and without Rush Limbaugh around to flog them into action, they’ll fall by the wayside over the next couple of elections.

    When he dies, the knives will come out, and the backstabbing will begin. When that happens, Dems should just stay out of the way, and enjoy the show. Maybe an occasional “You going let him say that about you?”
