If a tremendously uncharismatic turd like him can do it, lots of people can.

What's working in our favor is his shittiest supporters are all in on him specifically, and won't jump on the next bandwagon because it isn't him. They gave him the God slot in their brains and it isn't up for grabs by anybody else, but not because lots of others can't do it.
