Trumpism would survive Trump, but probably couldn’t win another election, says Simon Kuper.

Every modern US president lives in the heads of people around the world, but no previous incumbent occupied as much real estate as Trump has.In fact, no person in history has had such a real-time grip on the global consciousness. Trumpists often sneer that liberals suffer from Trump Derangement Syndrome, but how could one not?

Democratic presidential candidate and former Vice President Joe Biden speaks to a crowd of supporters during a drive-in rally at the Florida State Fairgrounds, Thursday, Oct. 29, 2020 in Tampa, Fla. There’s an appetite now for a tedious president who at the very least won’t turn himself into a biological weapon aimed at his own country.

A news recession threatens. The New York Times couldn’t keep its millions of new subscribers with front pages about endless congressional wrangling to pass fragments of a Green New Deal. Trump can make a fortune as long as he abandons his fantasy of being a businessman and owns his true genius as a lowbrow entertainer.
