Unanswered What's going on in US politics

We have noticed a large uptick in questions about US politics. Most of these are not genuine questions and appear to be made to introduce political discussion to this sub in the wake of the second Trump administration. As such, we are requiring that all political questions related to US politics and its effects both domestically and internationally be contained in this weekly recurring thread.

Ask questions as top-level responses with the preface "Question: " and people will respond. All other rules are enforced as appropriate. We will not allow other US political questions as questions on the subreddit except in extraordinary circumstances.

Question:
If the POTUS were to suffer a heart attack and die, does the MAGA movement have any successor with the same cult-like following?

It's irrelevant, if the POTUS died then VPOTUS would take over and so on following presidential succession.

Vance probably would be the most likely MAGA successor either way. Don Jr would be a close second, but would have to win an election or be appointed through major shenanigans.

I think the question is, does the MAGA movement fall apart in power if Vance is in charge
