i had the same concerns as noah
would MAGA end with Trump?
i had the same concerns until Trump picked Vance
would MAGA end with Trump?

I think that is completely dependent on how the entire ticket does this time around. If Trump wins and the right carries the senate and house…then MAGA will last a while.
If Trump loses a close race and the R’s take the senate and blocks Harris for four years, it is likely that the MAGA wing will have power to spend in ‘28.
If Trump loses and there is no Red Wave… MAGA will be tossed in the dumpster.
Right now the Senate looks good. The House is still a question. Trump looks “ok”. I think the MAGA wing will need a new player—not Trump. No one is Trump. The question starting the day after the inauguration is who is going to lead that wing of the party, and how will they do it?
Trump picked Vance when his opponent was Biden. I think Trump considered his win a shoe-in at that point. He picked Vance to be an excellent vice president and a possible successor. I do not think Trump picked Vance to help win this election. A female might have helped him more. I hope Trump wins anyway.
I feel the same way.
