If you asked me November 2024, I would’ve said with 100% confidence JD Vance. He primed himself perfectly with the MAGA crowd but still had the social acceptance of the Republican crowd tired of Trump. Mans has a movie for christs sake! But his actual vice presidency has been blunder after blunder for both sides of the conservative aisle. Unless he personally hand delivers the Epstein files to every American and personally saws down every flock camera lumberjack style hes kinda out of running

I genuinely don’t think that the party has much of a plan post Trump. When the cult leader falls, historically speaking, the cult usually does too. And I think they’re aware of this but don’t know how to tackle it. It’s why they’re so desperate to keep him in office as long as possible regardless of what it takes

Like I imagine if Trump is still alive it would be Vance, but I think what’s even more likely is that the moment Trump dies or is too demented to even function, there’s going to be a gigantic power vacuum where the GOP is going to massively canibalize itself trying to find a figure to lead the party. It’s going to get ugly

more than likely this is the answer. i will add, however, that it’s also not unlikely that the maga crowd ends up splitting the republican vote for quite a few years. there are some people that will LITERALLY only vote if trump or someone trump vouches for is at the top of the ticket. otherwise they just… won’t even bother. because it’s not trump. don’t be surprised when republican voter turnout goes down hard next year in 2028.
