but there's little doubt in my mind that MAGA will fracture into about 17 different pieces within the next two years. The entire 'movement' was built expressly on a cult of personality, and that personality has never taken kindly to sharing the spotlight with any other living thing, let alone passing the conch. This has only ever been about Trump. Combine that with the unchecked, shameless ambition for power and complete lack of character of everyone else in his orbit. It's a recipe for the exact opposite of a smooth succession plan. There will be books, movies, documentaries made for the next half-century about the unraveling of all this.
