I'm also fascinated by this, even more so how it will play out in a couple of years. Just like the Q Anon crowd it might be hard to step back into reality, coming to terms with how deluded you've been for so long. Will they double down and make one of his offspring run next?
The Lincoln Project people have been hinting at starting a new party that could back whichever of the two they choose to back. Not sure if that would work without scrapping the electoral college system though, in the current system they would just be splitting the vote.

I feel more or less safe to say that Trump believes his own bullshit - or at least truth is entirely naturally to him a relative concept. Likewise, his cap wearing AR carrying follows most likely believe his bullshit. But what of all his aides and more educated and worldly supporters? Have they all just drunk deep of the cool-aid and lost their minds or it is purely cynical self-interest / self-conservation at this stage?
It's a bizarre spectacle to watch.
