the thing about the Thousand Year Reich is you need a leader who will last a thousand years

You would be surprised. And right now, I'd even reword that to you will be.

i don't know what that means; are you assuming Trump is going to live to be 1000 or something? Do authoritarian personalist empires usually last a thousand years? Do you have many examples?

Trump won't live to a 1000, of course. The problem is those lining up behind him.

The problem for all of those is they all hate one another and they all, to a man/woman, lack the charisma that keeps Trumpism going. Nobody is going to storm the capitol on JD Vance's say-so. Or Kristi Noem. Or Elon Musk. Or Stephen Miller.

True. Trump appears to be a cult of personality. That said, I suspect at least one of his knuckle headed sons to jump in.

Oh yes, famously charismatic failson dipshits Eric and Donald Jr, who get booed at their own events. I don't think they'll be leading anything important anytime son.

Lol. Perhaps. But at this point, nothing can be ruled out.

North Korea has managed it with the Kim dynasty, but I don't think that Cokey McCoke-face or Grifter Barbie have the "charisma"* to follow the felon. * Ugh

North Korea is 77 years old, not a thousand, and has carefully constructed a decades long process of constructing a fragile state religion around their leaders, and has been violently propped up by both Russia and China. Without them they would have collapsed decades ago.

Don't get me wrong. I'm not arguing for the legitimacy of the concept, far from it. However I wouldn't put it past those behind Trump to lack the foresight to have determined what to do when the fucker finally croaks it. People have a habit of believing the personality cults that they have created.

Well I guess if we're all doomed, guess I can just give up now, right? Got a ditch I can lay face down in until the tanks roll over me? Defeatist nonsense like this is not only incorrect, but it self-reinforcing. The system they are building is violently unstable. It can/will be toppled.
