According to a report from the New York Times, Donald Trump has put his relationship with one of his top campaign donors on shaky ground after he deluged her with a series of "angry texts" as his campaign was partially derailed by Vice President Kamala Harris becoming his new presidential opponent.A...

Trump was manipulated into attacking Adelson by another donor, Ike Perlmutter, who "had hoped in vain that Mrs. Adelson would contribute to a rival super PAC that he backs."
It’s like narcissistic parents trying to undermine each other by manipulating their child.
- That’s why all of them are fucked after Trump dies. They all hate each other, they’re constantly backstabbing each other. They have nothing after he’s gone. No one to rally around.
  
  This is where you're* wrong. There will always be greed for money and lust for control. Soon as orange shit stain absconds from earth, there will be another to fill the void. *Edit spelling
  
  Yeah, if there's one kind of class solidarity you can count on, it's the 1% making sure they pay less taxes and accrue more wealth.
  They may hate everything else about each other, but they will never back away from that.
  
  Well, that is until those 1,000 people hold all the money in the world. Then they’ll finally turn on each other and fall to infighting.
  Then the money will finally trickle down
  
  I think you underestimate what happens after a personality cult loses its object of veneration.
  
  Tell that to the Christians. 😉
  
  I tried not to bring religion or Hitler into this discussion 😂.
  
  Yes Elvis died, rock and roll remains. Evil greed will don a new face unfortunately.
  
  Rock and roll existed independently of Elvis. The Cult of Trump doesn't exist without Trump. When he dies, they'll all scramble for that power. They're already fighting each other for a scrap of attention from daddy trump
  
  And the cult of trump existed before under various names Tea Party, the alt right, etc. but if that's the fairy tale you wanna believe. Whatever keeps you warm at night pal.
  
  Trump was able to gather the hordes of weirdos in a way none of those other movements could. For whatever reason, he was an exceptionally powerful populist, and the other craven greed monsters want that power bad. It's been shown that that magic doesn't run off on them though and it seems to be flaking off trump very quickly these days.
  There will always be another eventually, but it can't be denied that Trump's star is falling, and the Republicans have no one able to gather the hordes like trump could at the moment. If they lose their ass in November, it's very possible that it takes them quite a while to regroup in any real way. Their penchant for infighting will slow things down.
  
  Wow pal, this is a lot of words to say you agree with me. You should work on that people would in the real world would appreciate it I imagine.
  
  I don't agree with you. No one will immediately fill his shoes. All the dip shits who are lined up to try are already proven failures that can't gather the base enough. They will flounder for quite some time if they can't manage to steal the election. Saying evil will rise again eventually is basically saying air exists. No shit the fight never ends, but it's not nearly as hopeless as you posit.
  
  I'm not hopeless foo, I'm just not filled with a childlike naivety. You must remain ever vigilant against dark forces. You think the clowns performing this circus act are in control? An illusion. While Bobmighty is out performing tricks.
  
  There will definitely be someone trying to take his place.
  But I’m old enough to remember the last 7 republican presidents and presidential nominees. None of them were like Trump.
  They weren’t convicted felons, or impeached twice, or telling bold provably false lies daily. They didn’t double down on their lies when called out on it.
  Some of them couldn’t find a coherent sentence without two hands and a flashlight but went on to be elected for two terms, while still managing not to recommend injecting bleach as a treatment for any medical condition.
  Trump has something no Republican candidate in my lifetime (and probably ever) has, blind loyalty in the face of utterly ridiculous behaviour.
  
  Just because they have been progressively worse. Fool me once and I won't get fooled again. Have a read thru memory lane https://www.ranker.com/list/bush-isms-funny-george-bush-quotes/notable-quotables
  They even called them Bushisms for crying out loud. Plus you got to remember they didn't run their mouths on the Internet 24/7.
  
  I think it depends on if he somehow becomes president or not.
  If he doesnt, maga will die with him. If he does, all the rules will have been changed and all he needs to do is appoint next in line. Even if people don't agree with the person he appoints, or the party tries to put someone else in their place, it will be too late.
  
  Don't threaten me with a good time.
  
  I hope you’re right. But I fear there will instead be some power vacuum, which will be filled with someone much smarter and maybe even more evil than Trump. Such a person will have been watching this shit show and paying attention to how easy it is to manipulate these idiots.
- And because Trump only has the attention span to believe the last person he talked to, he took Perlmutter at his word and went off on someone else.
- Ike Perlmutter, the fuck who messed up Marvel TV. Not surprised that shit stain goaded Trump.
