Yeah he just made a deal with the devil... Nah, in all seriousness it's the way he appeals to the uneducated and hateful masses. You can't replicate his special mix of pure hatred and greed inorganically. It isn't that there can't be another, more so that no one even remotely in a position where they could take over doesn't have the same undeniable sway. They'll stop being so united.
Doesn't mean they'll stop being a threat, it'll just mean it's a bit easier to deal with
Right, that too, he simply refused to have a likely successor by his side, too scared they might replace him.
