20. It's like every cult when its leader dies, or is removed from society.

You don't see many Branch Davidians or People's Temple members around these days. Or, Manson Family members, for that matter. In MAGA's case, we can also add that there is no honor among thieves. It's a cult full of scummy people, and Dear Leader's demise will create a power vacuum, where the awful people will fight amongst themselves to fill it. Which never ends well for any of them, especially since this is also the most stupid cult to ever exist.
