Euron, not Cersei is the threat from the South

[hallam]

It just occurred to me that we are being led to believe that Cersei is the threat after the Night's King. But what would Cersei be right now without Euron? It is his ships that gave her victory and brought the mercenaries to fight for her.

Euron's claim to a throne is much greater than Cersei's. She is the dowager queen, her children are all dead. She has the support of precisely no ruling houses because they are all dead. 

There is of course the fact that Euron is demented but that is hardly an obstacle to the iron throne. 

Perhaps Tyrion should send Arya and her team off to kill Euron rather than Cersei.

Yes, I agree, Cersei and Euron are one time at the moment.

Euron has the practical power, Cersei just the theoretical one.

Cersei dying does not eliminate the threat of Euron and the Golden Company.

As far as the books go, I agree with you. I think Euron or fAegon takes out Cersei and they become the real issue. As far as the show, she will at least share the responsibility.

Bronn fails (deliberately or not) to eliminate Lannister brothers, they will let Euron know, Cersei fooled him, too, by not telling she already is pregnant.

Euron is the big enemy in the South because he has the Iron Fleet, and they will need the Iron Fleet to flee to Essos with the survivors after the Night King rolls over everyone.

Honestly, it would be an interesting twist if NK just demolishes all of Westeros and the living have to go to Essos to survive.
