Have you not been paying attention? We’ve been in that civil war for at least a decade, you just haven’t been paying attention because there’s nothing organized or official. But the right has been at war for years.
One trump is gone it’s all over. They have a very tenuous grasp on a cult. It’s not going well for them. Everytime someone tried to coop it, it totally fails and when Trump tries to change the narrative, it fails. It’s been falling apart a lot longer than it’s worked. Once he’s in the ground, it’s over.
Now, yes. Then, no. I don’t think anyone could have unified the MAGA right enough to win the election without Trump. If Trump hadn’t ran, I could have seen a conservative winning a normal election. Not a last minute Trump replacement though
They would’ve put desantis on there. Far more competent IMO, could be potentially more dangerous.
Dems lost 2024 because people blamed them for inflation and they had terrible PR, and they fucking ran a status-quo candidate, almost any republican would’ve won.
If that would have happened with Trump, he’d have become a martyr.
No. He would be gone and JD would have lost the election. Our lives would be better.
Optimistic take. I think it would have easily sparked a civil war
you already have a civil war, but only one side is fighting.

If you’ve been paying attention to what’s happened since, it’s hard to believe it could be worse.
It can always be worse, that said I agree, it would be extremely unlikely.
But not a president.
yeah, then we’d have thiel as our president through vance
We have exactly that now.
Better a dead martyr than a live president

It depends how long he lives and this goes on…
The right leadership is working very very hard to remove the Democratic process and elections altogether.
