If tRump can't continue as POTUS, will Project 2025 still continue

forward with Vance? Will he take away our ACA healthcare? Whether or not tRump dies or is incapacitated will The Heritage Foundation follow through as planned?

1. Yes of course. And I'll have another death to hope for each day.

3. Trump is just a talking hood ornament. He can be replaced by any randomly chosen dimwit. NT

4. I guess I am approaching this topic with logic

and rational thought and that is my problem.

I mean, politically how in the hell is the MAGA base going to suffer financially with huge price gouging, etc yet continue to support the person responsible for so many of their current and future financial losses? On a personal level, even his base has to buy food and they can not afford it either.

This increase should be the nail in his political coffin. I just do not understand the reasoning at all.

6. he is the cult leader. without him the cult is likely to wither away. that's typically what happens nt

7. IMO JD does not have, and cannot create, the number of f45 cult followers, so I don't think he

will be a strong replacement for f45. If JD could replace f45, the oligarchs would have done it before the end of the first week of f45 being in office.

9. Actually, it seems the tech bro oligarchs

still need t for a few months longer. I won't make a hard bet on it, but probably by a few months into 2026 t will be gone and v in his place. V doesn't really give a shit that he isn't popular; he just wants the office.

5. All of this is at the behest of...

the Heritage Foundation, the Federalist Society and Billionaires. Trump has nothing to do with it. His job is to create havoc and distraction. That is all… Oh yeah. And keeping himself out of prison.
Vance is their guy lock, stock and barrel.
It is only going to get worse.

10. Do you think the base, who follows their cult leader,

will have the same gusto for Vance as they do for tRump?

[S/V Loner]

12. I think once trump is gone...

his base becomes irrelevant to the real drivers of this authoritarian turn as long as they continue to go after those his base hate to placate them.
Frankly, Vance becomes irrelevant. He will only be a figurehead.

8. Only if there continues to be a Republican Trifecta.

In addition, Vance doesn't have the "charisma" and hold on MAGAts like TSF. They want Trump, and only Trump. Take no substitutes.

11. The short answer: Yes!

Project 2025 is fueling the craziness and is/was the point: a revolution (bloodless, the originators said) and the subsequent, ongoing dismantling of the American experiment.

The 'bloodless' would be determined if Democrats complied, acquiesced.

F*ck that!

13. Why would he not be able to continue?

14. My post referred to his declining health.
