Trump's Cognitive 'Decline' Suggests He 'Might Not Make It Through Four Years,' Republican Strategist Says
Come on stroke!
You're viewing a single thread.
My hope is that he has a massive stroke live on TV and then ends up wheelchair-bound unable to speak without the help of a Stephen Hawking style talk box and then deteriorates over the next few months and off to the golf course with ya Donny.
I hope his head is removed from his shoulders by the gravitational force of the sharpened edge of a thin quadrangular sheet of metal, but to each their own I suppose.
Technically a guillotine blade is a trapezoid, if you'd like to be specific.
After posting this I was actually curious about the specific shape, and it's a subset of trapezoid being a right trapezium.
How would you know? Suddenly he's coherent and can stay in topic? Says sorry like once?
"Y'know, Barrack kinda looked sharp in that tan suit."
dies
I hope he soon dies a painful slow death for what he said about Bidens cancer diagnosis:
If you feel sorry for him, don’t feel sorry for him, because he’s vicious.
Agreed! Whichever way he dies it need to be long and painful for him and enjoyable for us.
I don't really care enough anymore to actively wish any of those things on him. I just wish him gone from the Oval Office. The particulars are someone else's problem.
President Drooly has a great ring to it.
I could definitely see him being wheeled out onto the stage and with his robot voice say “the deep state did this to me!” And then he shits himself.
A robot voice would be great, then he could be muted. Hopefully he dies before mind uploads become a thing. If not, at least the storage costs would be low.
Stop, I can only get so erect!
I mean, Mitch McConnell had a stroke on camera and he's still proudly serving in the US Senate.

This scenario affords an opportunity for there to be a mausoleum, and therefore a shrine. I hope he spontaneously combusts just to scare the shit out of the nat-cs.
I think, regardless of how, or when he dies, there will be shrines and monuments built by his supporters in much the same way as a cult. I can also see it turning out like Jamestown where his supporters drink the Kool-Aid and also I can see a Dalai Lama situation where his supporters believe his soul has inhabited The body of the new leader, thus opening the doors for a wave of new grifter and liars to control the new Trump cult.
Honestly, I think if he dies, most of his cult of personality dies with him. I bet many pull a Bush -> teabagger routine again and pretend they didn't really like that washed-up game show host that much anyway, since he wasn't a True Conservative (TM). Remember, conservatism can never fail, it can only be failed by people improperly living up to True Conservatism (TM).
So, no matter how many blatant failures of conservatism you can point to, the cons will always have an out, such as not doing it hard enough, or that they were foiled by those nasty Democrats, uppity POC, outspoken women, devious liberals, the Deep State, or whatever other bullshit you care to name.
They'll still be cons, though, and they'll seek the next hit of China White. They won't settle for a Ronnie Raygun or a Bush, they'll want to up the ante and have someone who "says what I'm thinking" - most especially if what is being verbalized are some of the darkest thoughts at the root of the Republican movement. So I'm thinking they will wait for an even bigger asshole than donnie and then pretend they never had all that donvict gear on their person, their car, their house....EXACTLY like they did for Dumbya.
I don’t disagree that regardless of a physical burial site his cult will have their ‘pilgrimage’ sites. I do want to just point out that current sentiment is not everyone in Jonestown (not Jamestown) voluntarily drank the Flavor Aid. The whole story is harrowing, even more so when you put it into the context of the time period it took place in.
If you listen to the tapes (which, totally understandable to not) - there was a woman (iirc) who argued pretty vociferously against Jim Jones plan. They had killed a U.S. congressman at that point - the idea was that they were doomed anyway. But people did argue against him.
Another aspect is that they had started the suicide drills long before they had even moved to Guyana. They had church services in California where they were told to drink what they were taught was poison.
People who didn’t drink the Flavorade were shot. You don’t need everyone to go along with it - you just need a handful of the people who are willing to take quick, immediate action.
The recent Behind the Bastards episode about Kevin Smith (not the director of Dogma but a Jamaican Pentecostal preacher) makes this pretty clear - there’s these fucked up dynamics which make certain people more willing to act, and others less so.
Yeah, I didn’t want to get too deep in the weeds, but it’s so much more complex thank ‘drink the kool-aid’. I’ve listened to the 40+ minute tape as well, and linked a well written Britannica article detailing these points as well as some important cultural impacts in my original comment.
A large portion of his ‘congregation’ were Black Americans who were beaten down by the status quo at the time. I can’t blame them for grasping at hope that his de-segregated ‘church’ valued them for the people they were. As you said there were drills for this sort of thing before, so it’s impossible to say if the ones who initially volunteered for it were truly aware of what they were doing.
I’m personally not a ‘Behind the Bastards’ person. I very much enjoy historical dark comedy; just not as a teacher. I’m more of a fan of ‘referential’ humour in that regard. If I’m trying to learn something I want it as honest and close to the source as possible.
I sure hope normal Americans construct their own pilgrimage sites that involve relieving themselves onto something donvict-related. Maybe a few urinals themed with some of the many unflattering photos/caricatures of him. None of that weirdly lit stuff for his supposed booking picture where he's trying to look like a tough guy, either. I'm talking ones where captain combover has his hair in total disarray, or where his orange makeup is clearly contrasted with his normal white skin....
I hope all the younger men in the magazombie contingent are convinced to cut their own nuts off - before they breed.
Jesus Christ that response weighed heavy in my stomach, because all 3 of your scenarios seem equally likely, and possibly even all 3 at the same time as his followers splinter like the abrahamic religions.
Yes I know it gives me a chill too.
