3. Impeachment would bar the outgoing lawless president from ever running for president again. Even without impeachment, his corruption, numerous crimes and abuse of power could send him spending the rest of his life in jail.
The awesome power of Trumpism had inspired Dennis Hof, the Nevada brothel owner to run for the Nevada state legislature in 2018. The author of "The Art of the Pimp," his autobiography, Hof called himself the "Trump of Pahrump" after the Nevada city where he owned another two brothels.
Fortunately for America, the 72-year-old pimp died in his sleep otherwise he could run for president in 2024. Then America would be the first country to have a pimp as president.
Under Nevada law, Hof's name remained on the ballot for the November 6 election in the conservative district where he was favoured against his Democratic opponent. In the end, Hof achieved the unbelievable by beating the Democrat woman candidate from the Great Beyond.
If Trump-inspired presidential aspirants such as Mike Pompeo, Peter Navarro, Marco Rubio, Tom Cotton, Ted Cruz and Josh Hawley think that the elements of Trump's winning formula are the "America First" policy, tariffs, China bashing, Taiwan card, sanctions, white supremacy, Islamophobia, anti-globalisation, anti-immigration, lots of lies, etc, they would be disappointed in the 2024 election. What has mesmerised Trump's hardcore followers and holds them spellbound is none of those stuff but his claim of divinity or the Second Coming of God. The greatest of his countless lies had won him 74 million votes in the 2020 election despite his epic corruption, numerous sexual scandals and abuse of power.
In view of his Messianic claim and disregard for the law and Constitution, the outgoing lawless president seems to try replacing the US democratic system with his cult of divinity.
Hence it is not enough for such presidential aspirants as Mike Pompeo, Marco Rubio and Peter Navarro to emulate or copy all or some of Trump's policies. In order to hold their supporters spellbound and win the presidential election regardless of how corrupt they are, they must also claim to be Messiahs or American brothers of Jesus Christ or American sons of God.
The central tenet of Trumpism is not democracy, liberty or any so-called American value, but the claim of divinity or the cult of demigod or emperor worship.
