We dont know how the next repub will governLibs typically play the race card against anyone who disagrees with them on any subjectRepublicans pick favorite candidates for 2024 election: more Trumps
As much as it may be fun to believe Trump can declare himself dictator and be president for life like he praised the communist guy in China for doing -- the truth is, the republicans will have to pick someone else after Trump if he loses or finishes a second term....but who will it be?

"As you can see, Vice President Mike Pence tops the list, followed by the guy who just posted this picture, featuring an apparent line drawing of Hillary Clinton behind bars and other controversial symbology — “I honestly think Don Jr. or Ivanka will be the nominee in 2024,” Wilson said in the interview. 'Because the party doesn’t care about any of the issues that used to drive the party. Now they care about Trump' a republican strategist said."
Let's remember, the only reason Trump began to pick up any real relevance as a presidential candidate was the minute he hopped on the racist birther conspiracy; including lying and saying he hired investigators and they had found explosive evidence -- and then nothing else was said about it...ever.. -- something that you would think would end any normal candidates career....but not Trump...
Then Trump solidified his cult leader status when he called Mexicans mostly rapists and murderers (and some I assume, are not rapist and murderers) -- and also claiming a Hispanic judge couldn't do his job properly, because of course, he is Hispanic.. something even Paul Ryan called a textbook definition of racism...again, that would sink a normal candidates career -- but not Trump...
Trump showed himself willing to blow the dog whistles of racism, xenophobia and bigotry -- in a way that republican voters hated McCain and Romney for not doing enough of....When that woman at McCain's townhall called Obama a muslim, McCain corrected her -- that level of pushback will NEVER HAPPEN with a republican candidate now...These Trump voters didn't appear out of thin air -- the last 30 years of republican politics enabled a Trump -- but after Trump, you can't go back -- you would need someone who can come in and be Trump-like or hit the same dog whistle frequencies that base republican voters crave -- but who will it be?? Trump Jr? Ivanka? Pence? Ted Nugent?
Notice that not one time did I have to mention policy because majority of Trumpers could care less about policies -- just make sure you demonize the people they hate and they will overlook any policy decision you make -- most of Trump's policies are the same ole same ole policies that Bush passed, McCain would have passed and Romney would have passed -- just without the blatantly trying to appease racists part....
and biff is no exception
the next republican candidate for president is going to look like a boring wall flower compared to trump
he will have to be a very exceptional person
Exactly. How could anyone top what Trump has accomplished?
If he is not an establishment swamp rat there is hope that he will continue trump policies
but first he has to get elected
and trump has raised the bar pretty high when it comes to connecting with voters and getting them excited
Yes. Before Trump, the racist homophobic religious nuts were a mostly underutilized constituency. Trump changed all that.
You live in a really strange world.
