24. Pretty sure this will happen when Old Colostomy joins the choir eternal.

There's no obvious heir apparent to replace him as (figure)head of the movement, so it's unlikely to remain unified.

It seems to be fragmenting already. Jinglesphincter's incompetence has never been more obvious, the Iran War is not popular among them, and the economic miracle they were promised isn't happening. There are even some - not a majority, but some - who genuinely thought ICE was going to focus on violent criminals and not their neighbors. You can only pretend you're not seeing what you're actually seeing for so long.

There will always be a die-hard core, but parts of the movement will head in different directions.
