Is the cult shrinking, though? If you look at Nixon’s support even as he resigned…I have my doubts.
They may be a bit directionless for a bit and “go teabagger” again for a while after he’s gone. But that’s just until they can find the next awful asshole to rally around.
Nixon wasn’t a cult. There isn’t a real comparison in past presidents on approval ratings. Cults don’t usually shrink slowly. They have splits that occur. It’s in a hardened defensive state right now. They moved to private land and built a fenced off hideout. Breaking out takes a larger event. But the complaints are open secrets. The sewage is backed up. The crops aren’t growing. People are getting sick. But everyone is too deep and too far in to say anything. We have to wait til the leader asks everyone to drink the Koolaid.
