It must surely be imminent. He’s not in the best health if the reports about him eating mcdonalds all the time are true. He’s 79 which isn’t that old but I dont see many fat, stressed 90 year olds on a mcdonalds diet.

Say he had a heart attack next week… then what? Presumably Vance would take over as actual president, but I can’t imagine anyone being as bad as him. Would the maga movement continue with a different cult leader? Do you think things would meaningfully change?

    He needs to end in a humiliating self inflicted way. Falling off the stairs or something.

        I actually got a book that disputes that narrative, arguing that it was likely something even more embarrassing like him falling inside his bathroom, due to the fact that apparently the killer chair was never found, that there are conflicting stories, and weirdly inconsistent testimonies Edit: went to see the Wikipedia article, they do have this dispute mentioned. Fun

      For legal reasons: I want to be clear I do not wish death upon anyone…

      But I do wonder what it would look like if a politician choked on a burger and died…

      Like imagine how absurd it would be if it happened on live tv

        For moral reasons, I want to be clear. I DO wish death upon trump.

        I’m not going to be the guy that causes it, but I will happily celebrate that day HARD!

        Nah, the beeper people are quick enough not to let this be seen.

      I came across a catchy turn of phrase recently that I think would be perfect here. I’m hoping that, in the midst of one of his big public speeches, he shits himself inside-out. That would be the perfect end for his story.

      How about falling into a volcano? Or better yet, post a sign that says “Danger! Volcano ahead!” to which he intentionally disregards, and jumps in!
