    Famous people always die three at a time. It’s a rule…of three. Let’s go #2!

    And if this is from a stroke, $100 says that’s where he was that weekend he “died”.

    Come on guys, it’s a bit mean to suggest he’s had a stroke.

    He could have simply shat his pants due to dementia, as is perfectly normal and healthy for the commander in chief of the most powerful military in the world to do.

    Bell’s Palsy maybe? I don’t think stroke victims are able to pretend they are well while it is in progress.

        Yeah my knowledge of strokes is quite limited. I only figured out there were different types, i.e. blood vessels in brain bursting vs blockage in heart stopping blood to brain. There are probably more.

    Serious question - given the changes in the US government recently, what are the odds a president JD Vance tries to continue the push toward authoritarianism?

    He had a stroke. COVID infected in at his age have double the chances of stroke later on.

    He can talk to Charlie about how karma is a bitch.

        10 years? I only started to hear about it from around 2021. He was significantly less energetic at the time compared to his first term.

      Well if it makes you feel any better, things will get worse after his replacement is able to more effectively implement the party’s agenda.

    Sorry to upset people thinking of him dieing soon, but they’re going to sit him in a gold throne, kept barely alive, in suspended animation, then keep him alive and in charge for 40,000 years.

    They’ll use AI every time they want him to “say something”.

        My post was clearly a reference to wishing people well and a speedy recovery, but now that I saw the other response to my post I do want Trump to survive for the rest of the year, giving Vance less potential time at the helm

          Vance was specifically selected because he poses no threat to the leader of the personality cult.

          Trump has been able to quash dissent well enough to keep MAGA in his orbit. Vance doesn’t have the chops to hold it together.

          If America has a civil war, I want Trump to be in command of the Neo Confederates. That would save many ReUnion lives, since the enemy would be utterly incompetent and would encourage backstabbing among his minions.

          Keep everyone confused. I guess by now they are scrambling and can’t properly recall how to “sandbag”. So, ummm, never thought I’d say it but fuck, Viva La Trump. (Oh that turns my tummy inside out) Strange times do call for ridiculous measures. C’est la Vie.

      Well, if he recovers and makes it over the 2 years before JD Vance replaces him, then the 2 years won’t count towards limiting Vance’s two terms. However, if he kicks it like a year into it and Vance serves 3 years, then he couldn’t run for a third go since the 3 years would count as 1 full term.

        Honestly, if Vance assumes control and your democrats aren’t screaming all day and all night about this unelected and illegitimate president for as long as it takes to get an election, then they really haven’t learned anything about the way the game has been played for the last couple decades.

          I agree with your sentiment, but just to be clear in US presidential succession the vice president (Vance) is next in line. So while I think he’s a piece of shit and wholly incompetent, he is actually legitimately president if Mango Mussolini croaks.

            Oh I am well aware, but recall that according to the rules, Obama should have had his supreme court pick. Doesn’t matter if the rules say he would be president if everyone including Vance himself feels he is illegitimate because that’s all they ever hear. Might even provoke him into an election after a year of badgering him at ever possible opportunity. Hearts and Minds is a game, and right now only one side is playing.

        Is it fleshed out like that?

        I do not think it will matter, Vance will not keep the supreme leader spot, he will be rejected for somebody with more Charisma in 2028.
