Big if true, but this unfortunately just seems like wild speculation.
There's articles going back to before the election talking about how Trump hasn't been seen in several days. I couldn't find anything more recent than June. He apparently has a habit of flaking on commitments, which doesn't surprise me in the slightest.
Don't do this to me, I'm not strong enough to survive the disappointment.
The disappointment would be Trump kicking the bucket before he can see the dildo of consequences and someone else taking the blame
I don't know how someone can live that long eating that kind of diet. On the upside though, if they give him an enema before he dies they can bury him in a matchbox 😁.
(Stole that from Christopher Hitchens).
Dudes probably just at a private golf outing or a child sex trafficking party or out hunting endangered animals to extinction
his pee pee works about as well as Elon's by now.
I could jack off dry to his obit
I don't know how unfortunate this would be. Vance will be president and Thiel will still control the US.
I know it is unlikely but I still want a trial for Trump.
The cult of personality losing its figurehead would cause a significant amount of people to have second thoughts.
That might be enough of a push to get the ball rolling.
You are right. There are people that do love Trump for just being Trump. This is just a guess since I have no data to back this up but those people probably would vote for his kids.
The second is the theory that people that voted for Trump are simply fascists. That means they would just vote for the next fascists.
There are several people that can fit these criterias. That might still be big enough to win the next election.
On top of that the younger generation is getting more radical MAGA. The Supreme Court is still MAGA. And gerrymandering will be worse.
I still have hope but my logical side seems very pessimistic right now.
I honestly think they would put the pedal to the metal. But I also think without the cult of personality, it will fall apart real fast. Only problem is, no idea who victors in that power vacuum…
I'm boiling the water for my fresh asparagus stand at Arlington.
Underrated comment :)
i'm trying to remember what i eat for the stankiest shits hold on
Thoughts and prayers.
Thoughts: please be real please be real
Prayers: oh god please make this real it would be so funny
so this is a long weekend i can actually enjoy?
Could be the last one before Peter Thiel's gang taking over.
One can dream.
it would be so nice if it stayed that way...
If dear leader was to kick the bucket, would his supporters rally behind Vance?
MAGA is a Cult of Personality, and won't survive Trump's death. The administration will try to hold it together, but it will very quickly devolve into ferocious backstabbing, leaks, allegations, accusations, etc. A lot of people are important to Trump who will be useless to Vance, like Stephen "PeeWee Himmler" Miller, and they won't give up their power easily. It will take no longer than 48 hours for it to start to fall apart.
Dems would be wise to stoke the fire with questions like "Are you going to let him say that about you?"
The street level MAGAs will instantly start spreading conspiracy theories about who killed him. At first they'll blame liberals, but soon they'll turn on the new Vance administration, especially if Dems encourage it.
At the same time, every Sociopathic Oligarch will take advantage of the societal chaos, and use whatever mechanisms they have to make money.
If you think things are crazy now, just wait until Trump croaks.
Not just conspiracies about who killed him, there's going to be a set who insist he isn't really dead, he's just gone into hiding against the deep state or something equally silly.
200% true, if he dies in office he becomes immortal
Between dipshit conservatives who worship General Lee and dipshit conspiracy theorists who still insist Elvis is alive, I'm sure idiots will be insisting Trump is still alive long after I'm dead
This is my last hope for America as we know it: MAGAts destroy themselves once their Christ figure is gone. It could devolve as you describe, but it might also be just the lull to prompt recovery.
Don Jr. will be apppointed next.
Don Jr is Frank Sinatra Jr - nobody cares.
I don't really think it's safe to say that. I think enough Trump supporters would gladly just shift to the next Trump name and not think twice about it
I doubt it very much. These morons love Trump, and Trump alone. I've seen no evidence that they see Jr, or anybody else, as a worthy substitute. Some will go there, but most won't. The Right will be splintered badly as various factions and ambitious candidates fight for control.
It will be entertaining for a while.
thank you for the reminder to watch Death of Stalin tonight
My guess is that Stephen Miller knows that Vance can't hold three pieces of paper together and will try to ramp up martial law to retain power. Which they don't have the manpower to do without the actual military who likely would not follow such orders. The national guard would likely start doing malicious compliance at best and ICE flat out doesn't have enough people to control blocks of a city let alone the country. I can't even imagine where things would go from there.
it's not just the people ice doesn't have, it's the training
They have no training at all for anything but they've got so much tacticool shit. It counts for nothing but they've got that.
all I'm gonna say is buy maybelline
Surprise: He's not dead
He's the new Marshall Tito.
"Doctors hope that if his condition improves, they can declare him dead by next week."
He's just hiding for 3 days so he can claim to be Jesus... again.
Time to re-watch 'The Death of Stalin'.
Steve Buscemi is a sexy beast in this one
And nobody misses him
Don’t give us hope bitch.
