(50,342 posts)They are not interested in being Trump's lackey.
They want to be first in line when he loses the election or goes to the great hamberder stand in the sky.

(116,576 posts)The puppets who show up in identical outfits to kiss Trump's blubbery orange ass won't inherit the cult by virtue of presenting themselves as just another Trump Mini-Me. They will have to have their own following ready to hop on their bandwagon - or, put differently, a whole lot remoras ready to attach themselves to a new shark when the old one dies. So far I don't see that happening. The problem with a running mate hoping to inherit the cult is that whoever Trump chooses as a running mate will have to be another bland, obsequious nobody like Pence - someone who won't try to steal the spotlight or show evidence of having a mind of his own - and those bland nobodies don't attract followers of their own. The hangers-on who aren't obviously angling for a spot on the ticket have even less of a chance of attracting their own followers because you can't get your own cult while the Trump super-cult is active. You have no choice but to stand around in your Trump costume, parroting his talking points and hoping he'll notice you.
They're a pathetic lot, aren't they? You don't get your own cult that way.
