I guess to be fair I was never really a stickler for any particular method; I’m just a lot more open to a lot of them.

Here's the thing. Trump is just a poster boy. The real problems will continue long after he's dead. There will be further assholes. Trump is a puppet. The string puller will last on.
We need to address the core root, not the symptoms.
The rot will definitely still be there, but the power vacuum Trump will leave behind is going to massive. Not only that, but a lot of Republicans are just spineless opportunists and not hardcore ideologues, and they may see it as an opportunity to push back against the nutjobs who have taken over the party.
It's become very apparent that the puppet poster-boy is a very critical piece to the puzzle, and for some fucking reason, he's an effective one.
I agree. I think Trump’s real purpose is to just take the heat for a lot of unpopular policies and he’s just too dumb and narcissistic to realize it.
It will be interesting to see how MAGA changes after he’s gone.
I don't disagree, but Trump is definitely a unifying figure for MAGA. Hopefully when he's gone there will be in-fighting among different MAGA factions trying to enact their own agendas and will cause fragmentation and irrelevance for many of them.
I can see that. Vance will be one. DeSantos will be another. Musk might even get in on it.
If I were Hillary Clinton, I'd just troll them, and run as a republican.
Remember that Hillary and Bill told Trump to run, believing he would be easy to defeat. They donated to his campaign in 2016
He is like a pustule. The disease is underneath and around the area but squeezing it empty will be a huge relief and afterward the healing will accelerate
