Long Knives: no, as we have seen since trump 1, there is no one else which is able to mobilize maga the same as trump, no inner-party split or second leader. desantis was making a play for it but ofc fell apart
Not to say trump won’t go after anyone deemed a threat, he is definitely petty enough to do so, but it won’t be as drastic
As for reichstag I am not sure, on one hand the Dems aren’t really opposing him so there’s no reason to, on the other hand they aren’t opposing him, so he might actually go for it. Heritage foundation would be happy, but it would probably upset business interests (assuming stock market goes down)
He is actually actively dismantling desantises power base right now. He has put his own candidate for governor of florida up and is trying to push out desantises candidate (his wife). Theyre throwing tons of money at it and i only expect it to intensify.
In case anyone wants to look it up Trumps guy for governor is Byron Donalds, Desantises is his wife Casey Desantis. Desantis is fucked imo. His career is over cuz he pissed Trump off, and Trump loves to hold a grudge.
