    His perceived audience is no longer of any use to him insofar as getting what he wants to get. So there's no need to talk to them.

      He is no longer president. If one checks history, one will find that after a president leaves office, he (or she!) loses importance.

        True but this is the first loser who also leads a cult.

        You were warned.

          Waiting for you to show your consistency and call those who are all-in on the police racism narrative a "cult".

            I would call wokeness a cult.

            But not the police narrative all by itself.

              Ok. How are you defining members of the Trump cult? What are the relative sizes of the two cults under discussion?

                In what sense is Trump irrelevant?

                What is the question or is this a question even or an impulse or wishful thinking or beat down?

                Hard to know anymore when a question is being asked anymore or as Lin Wood would say it’s just rhetorical hyperbole.

                    I've heard here many times that Trump loves adulation and adoration. Not sure it washes that his political supporters are no longer of use to him.

                    There is ample evidence over the past four or five years at least, that in this regard he is into the 3Rs - reduce, reuse & recycle.

                          I agree Horace. All he really has is the loyalty of those who share his resentments and the fealty of those who fear his base.

                            Thanks again for the unity, jon. How again are you defining members of his cult, and how again do you perceive the size of that cult, as compared to the "wokeness" cult you acknowledged above?

                                  I would peg the size of the cult at about 20% of the Trump vote.

                                      And that is why he will not set up a third party. A party that receives 15 or 20 million votes in a national election would be very far down the results.

                                      If he wants to retain any type of influence, it will have to be staying in the party. But even then, people have short memory. Time moves on.

                                        He could re-form the Bull Moose Party.

                                        A bit short on Moose, but with a lot of extra Bull to make up for it.

                                        I was only joking
