He won’t be able to control MAGA and scare people into following him like Trump.
He is maybe a bit smarter? But likely MAGA would not let him be the new leader. Lots of people will try to take Trump’s spot (his kids included) and copy what Donald was doing. But no one can duplicate his control over everyone and how the Rs think if him like a god.
The brainwashing will likely fade and the R populations will realize how shit things are without Donald’s lies to help them cope with reality
Fact checking Trump and his gang has created lots of jobs but the cult members will never care while others think fact checkers are liars too...so here we are.
Remember the Colbert Report? The show coined the word "truthiness"...that was in 2005! it's been a long 20 years for those who care about facts.
