Erika Kirk is going to learn how hard it is to take over someone else's cult

Really good video on why when a cult leader dies, it often falls apart which is why when Trump dies of bad health, JD Vance won't have the same pull. In the video, apparently some of Kirk's followers are asking what's wrong with his widow. Why this action, why that action, why, why, why, why. And that's why taking over cults never work. Erika thought that it would be easy because she's his widow but kirk's followers aren't having it.

I think this is a very good video on why Erika is going to get a rude wake up call. Unless she was groomed years ago to take over his cult and she was introduced in that manner, it's not going to be the same and Kirk's followers will eventually turn on her. Let's also mention that many are not female leader friendly even the pick me maga women aren't. It's not going to go well for her.

Really good take down on why taking over someone else's cult never works.

Also she mentions in the video that she's also building on an already destabilized platform, they lost with the Epstein stuff they ran on for years so it isn't going to look right.

There are some good points here but it misses something. Some cults don't progress through some neat succession.

Perfect example of this is Scientology. David Miscavidge was a nobody in Scientology. He was a middle manager at the most uninteresting division of the cult.

He was not even who L Ron. Hubbard intended to have take over. But he was the most sociopathic and "mob boss" type in the cult. He seized power and basically carried out a coup. He was perfectly capable and willing to destroy people's lives to get what he wanted.

And with MAGA being full of narcissistic sociopaths I could see that messy power struggle here.

@PicturesOfABetterTomorrow They're already turning on her, I think that's what prompted this person to make the video is because they were criticizing her at the memorial.

But you do make good points and I think that both the video and what you said could be equally true. It also could be other factors involved like if the person taking over also is very charismatic and I hate to say it but I think although there's been some female cult leaders there's been very few as gender matters too.

Maga is full of deranged people looking for a power struggle but they also don't like women so Erika Kirk might FAFO.

That was already evident with Marjorie Taylor Greene, she's still a maga cultist which is hilarious since she stated a short time ago that the men didn't treat her right and were ignoring her. It's like no sht dummy, have you heard what they said about women lol 🤣

I do think Erika is going to get a rude awakening.

I agree with this video's message but that same message applies to anything else that was originally organized by one person who is no longer here. Even small businesses run into this problem. When the original owner dies who started the business, who's reputation is what the business was built on, but then his son takes over who was always in the background but not a part of creating that reputation, the business begins to die a slow death no differently than the original owner who took his reputation with him to the grave.
