I have a few theories on what will happen after Trump is dead. My first theory is that most of his followers will go full Waco or Jonestown and drink the Kool-Aid. Or we could end up with a Dalai Lama situation where they believe his spirit is in the body of a Someone else the leading to arise of fake charlatans, such as with Megachurch pastors. And my final theory is that they won’t believe that he is dead and it will be similar to how people still say they see Elvis or spot Bigfoot in the woods.

    I think your third theory will definitely happen. It seems to be a cultural obsession to believe that their heroes are still out there hiding from the spotlight.

    Theory number two is quite plausible too. A second coming of Trump could certainly happen. It terrifies me that thousands of years from now, he could get exalted enough that he is discussed like a messiah.

    Theory one is a bit further fetched, but maybe a handful of nutters?

    For sure all 3 of my theory's have some sort of realization and over the top dumb shit. I do think and feel that the Messiah possibility is very likely when he dies. It might be even on the same scale as Al-Qaeda, where we have a large wave of violence from his cult members.
