    Cults rarely survive a leader transition, especially ones based so fully around an individual rather than specific ideals. The cult will die, and the support will fracture, the underlying issues with the Republican party that allowed it will still be there.

        The Democratic party of today will think it’s won and do fucking nothing for us.

        I feel like this needs to end with a new constitution or we just punt the issue a few decades while still allowing all the insane shit of today.
