Come on stroke!
Someone shoot me a message when someone decides to do something about it.
You had me at shoot.
If that 19 year old kid had better aim, we wouldn’t be in this situation. The other day I saw a guy in a coffee shop wearing a tshirt with a picture of Trump the day he was “shot” with his hand in the air. I wanted to comment, “Nice shirt. That was a messed up day. What was the name of the guy that died that day?”
I guarantee this mother fucker has not a clue who Corey Comperatore is and they don’t give a shit either.
It’s not like he’s going to begin acting like an irrational idiot soon. Why would this change anything?
They’ll just wheel him around like they did with Alzheimer’s Reagan in the 80s. Anything to keep up doing the most evil shit they can think of without repercussions
Throw some more leaves in the pool to keep him busy.
I’m NOT a Snowflake and NEITHER is Trump but that man NEEDS to be DEPORTED because that’s a Mean Thing to SAY!
Trump dying sounds good until you consider he’ll be replaced by JD Vance
The fewer shit stains the better. And while JD is pure evil, he doesn’t have the cult of personality that Shitler does.
That would be the main hope, that once Trump’s “charisma” is taken out of the picture, MAGA might start to lose enthusiasm. But it would take some time for the MAGA momentum to wind down, and the authoritarians-in-waiting would be keen to consolidate power quickly and insulate themselves against the opinions of the masses. So then the next hope is that they all start fighting among themselves so hard that the damage any of them can do is limited.
Them consolidating power is still better than that same power already consolidated
I don’t want Trump to die. I want him just in the edge of mental degradation so there’s a constitutional crisis. GQP will hesitate to 24A him cause MAGA would revolt. It would be an extremely lame duck presidency.
I want Trump to live long and quiet enough that he’s forgotten.
I want him to survive a Cat-5 hurricane that destroys Mar-a-Lago.
I want him to drool uncontrollably in a wheelchair while they take down his name down from buildings and golf resorts and turn them into shelters for the homeless and asylum seekers.
I want all his sons turn into Viserys III Targaryen, paupers and laughing stocks that people entertain out of pity, not respect.
I want him to live a long life in interesting times.
I’ll take “horrifically nauseous and hovering over a toilet forever and ever” for 400, Alex.
Your ears you keep and I’ll tell you why. So that every shriek of every child at seeing your hideousness will be yours to cherish. Every babe that weeps at your approach, every woman who cries out, “Dear God! What is that thing,” will echo in your perfect ears. That is what “to the pain means.” It means I leave you in anguish, wallowing in freakish misery forever.
That sounds delightful.
It would be an extremely lame duck presidency.
It already is. Haven’t you seen him sign those executive orders and it’s immediately apparent he’s never seen or read it before that moment? He doesn’t have any clue what he’s going to sign before they put the paper in front of him.
Trump is in the White House for two reasons- make himself richer and avoid prosecution for his crimes. Everything else that’s happening is being masterminded by someone else. Smart money is on Stephen Miller.
It’s one part Stephen Miller one part Heritage foundation.
I believe it was Steve Bannon that previously referred to Trump as an “empty vessel.” These people promise him the chance to grift to his hearts content and they pour their agenda into him.
His whole Biden auto pen thing is more fucking projection… He has very little idea what he is signing, he’s just signing off heritage foundation wishlists and going about his day shitting himself and yelling at people.
I think they’d Weekend at Bernie’s him to pass the worst legislation you’ve ever heard of.
If it’s unpopular Trump gets the blame and he’s too incapacitated and impotent to lash out at them.
Basically what Trump accused the Biden admin of doing.
I mean, thats what they’re doing now. He’ll sign whatever they put in front of him.
“He’ll sign anything that stays still long enough”- Ron Weasley on Profesor Lockhart
That practice isn’t rare in authoritarian states. George III, Stalin, Nero, probably Mao. Now TACO.
Oh so you want the actual autopen presidency to continue
Gtfo of here with stupid MAGA-speak and come back when you can formulate your own criticisms instead of just parroting this low effort ‘talking point’ shit you’ve been given
It’s not a low effort talking point given to anyone. I made the same comment in another section of the thread thinking it was somewhat original. If he’s mindlessly signing what is put in front of him then it’s no different than an automated signature by a mindless machine.
The reference is to point out the hypocrisy of Republicans claiming Bidens use of auto pen meant he didn’t know about or care about what he was signing and was too unwell or careless to do it himself, and then we have Trump, albeit physically there signing the things, mentally checked out so he’s not doing anything particularly different than what crap the Republicans were saying before. Unless I’m misunderstanding it, it’s just a statement on Republican hypocrisy.
I think it fits well.

“Trump is going to die any day now” is a thing people were posting in 2018. It’s a thing people were posting about Vladimir Putin in 2018.
It’s all court gossip and click bait bullshit.
There’s a subreddit dedicated to telling you if Trump has died yet
JD Vance dying sounds good until you consider he’ll be replaced by Mike Johnson.
And Mike Johnson tells his son every time he cums
I’d have ruined that app as a teen and not even by telling the truth. I’d be getting pictures of me in empty parks on a carousel like, “3 head shots, 7 kills.”
What?
I guess the joke didn’t land if it needs an explanation. I just meant if my dad was a sex pervert and demanded we share cum reports, I’d have pretended to cum on everything to be obnoxious. I don’t actually want to nut on a carousel; it was more of a malicious compliance joke.
I don’t even know if they’re called carousels. Whatever those spinning things are at playgrounds? They probably got rid of them because they were legitimately unsafe or some bullshit.
Hahahaha I enjoyed the explanation more
I’m it sure everyone knows about that oddity with Mike and his son. Poor kid needs therapy already I bet.
Amazing. Assuming this is true, and he actually gets any, he can hit his son with “I came in your mom last night.”
It may lead to billions in therapy bills, but thet kid is getting the closest thing to the 2006 public Halo game experience.
His son’s phone alert goes off with the camgirl tip noises

“DAD it’s CHRISTMAS EVE”
just gather them all and let a single mortar shell loose
Vance can pick anyone to be his VP I believe, so it likely wouldn’t be Johnson
If there is an opening in the VP spot, the President nominates a new VP. But that VP still has to be confirmed by both houses of Congress before he can be sworn in.
The only way Johnson becomes president is if a) Trump dies, Vance nominates him, and Congress confirms it, or b) both Trump and Vance kick the bucket at the same time which automatically puts Johnson in the White House.
They’re referring to the succession in an emergency. After that i think is speaker pro tempore
Yeah, I think they are just pointing in the line of succession doesn’t do much if the VP was chosen by the president. We only made it 4 electiona before the 12th amendment was made and killed any hopes that the line of succession would be useful and Washingtons hopes that we wouldn’t become a 2 party system were completely dashed.
Without the 12th Amendment I have no idea who would be president right now. Biden would have never been Vice President and such likely would have never been President. Harris the same. But the President would likely have an obstacle at all times in the Senate as the only way to get both the President and Vice President elected for the same “party” they would have to have 2 candidates beat 1 of another party, splitting the vote of their own party. In today’s media age, it would be really hard to have gotten that done.
Yeah, we’re fucked.
What if all 18 are taken out then what?
Christ, what a list of absolute scumbags.
I was curious how far down the line of succession you would have to go to find someone who would not be a catastrophically bad president. 11 positions down is the Secretary of Labor, Lori Chavez-DeRemer. She’s a Hispanic woman who was one of 6 Republican house members who signed a pledge to respect the results of the 2024 election, the only Republican cosponsor of a pro- union bill, and opposes a national Bank on abortion or IVF. Far from Ideal but light years better than the rest of the fascists on the list
So how did she get a cabinet level position? I’m honestly confused
Normally I would never say a woman slept her way to the top, but this is Trump we are talking about. None of these people legitimately earned their cabinet positions.
It would be nigh impossible for that outcome though. If trump dies, Vance assumes the role but then selects a new VP. This new VP is now first in line and Johnson hasn’t moved up at all. It would take the synchronized deaths of all those others in line ahead of Lori Chavez-DeRemer for her to get the position. This is a known possibility so they generally keep people separated to some degree. That way if someone wants to plot a mass assassination to clear the line, it’s much more difficult. They couldn’t just try to bomb one building or something.
I’m an atheist but on Inauguration Day I was praying. Then they moved it inside suddenly. All those billionaire butt kissers were there too…
But seriously, that was a potential dream scenario for… uh… someone…
Kiefer
True, but most if not all of those positions need congressional approval of the next person holding the position. It doesn’t transfer automatically. The approval process can drag on for months. I think one or two are still “acting” secretaries under Trump.
I’m not too sure. Sure, he’s VP but he’s also not that popular with MAGA. If Trump would go (in whatever way possible) I’m sure it’ll lead to infighting.
JD Vance is garbage, buuut… he’s just another horrible GOP person, really. The thing that made people afraid to resist Trump was his cult-like base. They’ve tried multiple successors, and no one has even come close to capturing the same unconditional love of this racist moron by those pieces of shit as Trump. If we as a country have a final chance we don’t deserve, it’s Trump dying from his beloved “hamberders”…
Let’s hope it happens before the 2 year mark so it counts as a full first term for Vance
JD Vance doesn’t have the following or the charisma to pull off the nonsense Trump does. MAGA doesn’t work without Trump. Anytime MAGA has been in an election without Trump it fails pretty spectacularly.
Maybe, but if he inherits a full on police state, he might not need charisma or followers any more.
Maybe, but I don’t think it will last. I think Trump has a better chance at getting a third term than JD has at getting a first term.
Doesn’t work. Even a police state needs a base of support in the populace or it doesn’t last long. The constant pressure of enforced conformity is too much for the system to endure.
Also, under fascism, the second string guys are chosen for loyalty first and competence second. If the central guy dies, they fight amongst themselves and nobody wins.
Yeah… I’m reading this thread, and not thinking about his lack of charisma, but places like Pakistan where military coups follow.
You only need a following and charisma to get elected, he would just be handed more power so that doesn’t matter.
Nah, you need the charisma to convince the people in congress to go along with your ideas. Trump has that kind of sway and power because of all the lackeys he put in place. I don’t think JD could hold the same influence over them.
C’mon, Rick Wilson saying something mean about Trump isn’t news. He’s not changing any Republican minds, his Lincoln Project has been outside the tent for years.
It’s been outside the GOP tent but squarely inside the Dem tent.
Wilson loves to tell Democrats that Republicans are going to suddenly and catastrophically collapse and then just hand power to the Dems on a plate. And all the Dems need to do is wait patiently for the right moment, doing nothing that might risk their opportune position.
I want it to happen live. Mid speech.
Just look at some of his speeches from the last time he was president and you’ll see the difference is night and day. Before it was just stupidity, but now it’s so much worse and he can barely form a sentence compared to then. And for all the people saying “well, Biden was clearly in decline too and everyone tried to hide it.” And you’re probably right. But you know what? He’s not the president right now. And if it was such a big deal back then it should be an even bigger deal now because we are still letting it happen.
I feel like I notice more poor grammar from lots of people these days. Weird turns of phrase and all that. And my mind goes to COVID.
But I’m not making excuses for him. Just, noticing a pattern? Maybe it’s social media, not COVID. Who knows!
COVID, even in mild cases, has been linked to long term (up to a year was one study duration) cognitive loss.
Honestly I’m pretty sure he was already in decline back then. If you dig up old interviews with him from the 80s/90s, he was still an egomaniacal dumbfuck but he was at least somewhat articulate. If you can stomach enough of the fucker to watch all 3 in a row you can pretty much watch his brain turn to soup.
I genuinely suspect he was diagnosed with dementia around the time of that “man, person, woman, camera” incident. Usually when neuropsychological testing like that is done, they do several tests, not just one. One test that is typically given along with is the clock drawing test, which can be highly indicative of dementia. Given the everything about his personality, if he did not brag about drawing the best clock they’d ever seen…I would guess he had some pretty damn concerning results on that bit.
If Biden made it through four years, I have little doubt Trump will do so as well.
Feinstein won elections win full blown ‘I have no idea where I am’ dementia so yeah, he’ll be fine.
Sweetie Trump has to make it through a total of 8 now, he already spent 4 years in decline
We pay for his health care, better quality than most millionaires could dream of. His team will keep him so full of drugs, and so many secret surgeries, he will live into his 80s. His brain will be last week’s taco meat, but he will live.
“Trumps cognitive decline…”
Yeah, reason numbers 576,432 that he should never have even been on the ballet
Sorry for the stolen slop.

Nothing will get him out of office other than death. That includes 2028.
I don’t know if even death will. Maybe he stops making public appearances for “national security reasons” and only communicates through video broadcasts. Anyone who notices something is slightly off about them, like frames where he has extra fingers or nonsense text on the papers on his desk is called a conspiracy theorist, and to shut up and celebrate the Dear Leader’s 170th birthday.

The year is 2117. Either…
A: AI still can’t generate video without a bunch of fucky artifacts.
B: The Trump administration is still using janky AI from the 2020s, even though better options exist.
Both sound plausible.
nonsense text on the papers on his desk
I mean this wouldn’t necessarily indicate AI in this case
I have a horrible feeling you’re right
Sadly, the grim reaper pulled the actress that played Houlihan on mash out of the claw machine instead of trump.
Someone give him more quarters!
So, as expected, he will die without suffering the consequences of his actions.
Sounds about white.
American justice is the butt of a joke.
Assuming he’s dead or leaves in 2028, America wasted 8 years on a felon rapist. 8 years of our lives with not just no progress, but regression. Means we’ll see less progress and less benefits in our short lives. So fucking pathetic.
Unless of course the working class wakes up and removes the traitorous filth from office in order to bring about a government for and by the people.
The only way to remove the power billionaires are now flexing over us is to band together. When we do they have nothing but money, the people have the power. Just have to use it.
I don’t see how it could make any difference.
He’s already an idiot, a delusional narcissist, and a compulsive liar, so it’s not as if he could become even more detached from realitybthan he already is. And his supporters don’t care (and likely don’t even notice), since they’re even dumber than he is.
And it’s not like he"s going to forget his platform, since it’s pretty much just hating immigrants and LGBTQ, dicking over poor people, singing his own praises and scamming as much money as possible, and that’s all as natural and automatic to him as breathing…
Really, there’s just not much cognition going on there in the first place - it’s more in the nature of infantile immediacy and animal instincts - so I can’t see how any loss of it would matter much.
we might not make it through four years
It’s a race. By the time he dies, will you still be able to afford a trip to shit on his grave?
Worth putting it on the Klarna.
