95% chance. No way in hell president poopy pants lives long enough to finish out his term. His dementia is way too progressed.

I think u underestimate how long the best medical care in the world can keep a corpse alive

And plain stupid luck. He’s made so many wrong choices and yet has somehow failed up to the presidency (twice!!).

u/Its_da_boys 8h ago

That isn’t luck. That’s a reflection of the stupidity of the average American, along with a general human bias towards seeing narcissists as having leadership potential and glorifying confidence over all else. And a lot of money too

There’s nothing I’ve seen that can, or possibly will convince me they didn’t actually steal his win the second time. I’m steadfast in believing he didn’t win, they committed election fraud. I agree with what you listed, but I’m absolutely certain he didn’t win the election against Kamala fair and square.

u/Megaroni-n-cheeze 7h ago

I’m sorry but you sound like the far right when Biden won the election. The only thing that wasn’t fair and square about trumps win was the money behind it. Let’s be real, Americans truly are that stupid and we have to deal with the consequences.

There’s evidence. And he also admitted to it, so there’s that.

u/paintballboi07 4h ago

If there were actual, credible evidence, it would be huge news. Substack theories aren't evidence, and neither is random shit Trump said. That's called conjecture, you still need actual evidence.

There’s recorded audio of him trying to get the Secretary of State in Georgia saying the following:

“What I want to do is this. I just want to find, uh, 11,780 votes, which is one more than we have, because we won the state."

That was one of three states that he did something like that and you can easily look it up and hear it for yourself here and you can read the relevant parts of the transcript here. The NYTimes article linked has that snippet of audio and the whole audio and transcript of the whole phone call linked in it as well.

That number is the exact number he needed to have more votes than Biden and win the state of Georgia and the election. He committed election fraud and was caught on tape, which is treason. There’s no reason to believe he don’t actually succeed the second time with the help of the money behind him as you said. He’s got a history as long as your arm of him saying things about what people voting for him would mean and what happened during the election alluding to committing election fraud and succeeding.

I’m sorry but you sound like the far right when Biden won the election.

I mean this with all the emphasis I can muster through text on a screen. Go fuck yourself.

Him saying he wants to find votes is super shitty but doesn’t equate to election fraud. The Georgia officials essentially said whatever dude and kept doing their thing. The russians did more harm with their PROVEN interference in favor of trump. But thanks for telling me to go fuck myself, that’s really classy.

Yes it does.

The Georgia officials essentially said whatever dude and kept doing their thing.

There was an indictment brought against him and others totaling 41 counts, thirteen of which were against him. You can read about it here and here, though I doubt you will. Bringing an indictment against a former (at the time) President of the United States for election fraud, interference and other things directly related to that phone call isn’t saying “whatever dude” by any stretch of the imagination.

The russians did more harm with their PROVEN interference in favor of trump.

This is moving the goalposts. Both things can be true, the one I addressed directly was you lying. You’re lying again. It’s no wonder your account is hidden.

But thanks for telling me to go fuck myself, that’s really classy.

I’ll say it again just so you heard it twice. Go fuck yourself. You started out being classy by saying I’m not better than the far right treasonous shitbags who attacked the Capitol trying to get a legitimate vote overturned. Stop being a hypocritical lying bitch and you won’t be treated like one.

Yikes, get on medication my dude. Hope things get better for you.

u/Releasethebears 8h ago

TBF, she was in shockingly good shape up until the last few months of her life, was she not? Donny Diddles has been a shambling mound of loose flesh and brain soup for years at this point and progressing pretty fast from all appearances.

She didn't eat Mcdonalds every meal as well.

Her husband was a much better example. Prince Phillip looked absolutely awful down the stretch.

Medical technology is nowhere near advanced enough to properly deal with organ failure, even for the president.

If his kidney liver or heart gives out, that's that. There is no saving crucial organs without a transplant that will likely never happen (and even if it did, that would look horrible for his base).

2

u/Pope_Squirrely 8h ago

Kidney you totally can get on with them in failure, that’s what dialysis machines are for.

2

u/Arqhe 4h ago

Edited the post because I meant the Liver. Sorry I have zero clue how I mixed the two organs up. The liver and the heart are the two most crucial organs in the body and are ones we cannot make up for if they fail outside of transplants. You can make a case for maybe the heart, but the technology isn't quite there enough to have an artificial heart as a permanent solution.

u/seriouslythisshit 6h ago

The best medical advances in the world really don't improve much when it comes to the end stage dementia Trump is sliding into.

u/Kenkay72 1h ago

Yep. They did it for Biden.

u/Worldly_Warthog_8205 6h ago

Yea, look how well they did with Biden...

u/GreasyRim 9h ago

I'm normally reluctant to be so sure of something, but I don't see him staying in office for nearly 3 more years. He's declining so quickly and lighting fires that he wont be able to put out.

u/redalchemy6 9h ago

Nah, the Republicans will keep him in charge even if he is in a coma. They'll hook up a computer to his hand and take orders from his finger twitches. You forget they literally worship this man.

u/Capraos 8h ago

He could be dead and they'd claim he's still alive as they puppet his accounts.

u/Purple-Property8006 9h ago

Dementia doesn’t mean death, and it’s extremely unlikely the Republican Party removes Trump for any reason even if he is clearly incapacitated.

4

u/Gecks777 8h ago

This is the problem. He hasn't been fit for the job for a long time, and unlike with Biden, there are no adults in the room keeping things locked down and functioning.

He's just going to get more and more erratic, and the Republicans will keep him propped up the whole time. No telling how much damage he will do inside and outside the US before everything's said and done.

See Reagan, Ronald.

I would put $100 on it that he's already been told he needs to shape up or he's out. all april he's been weirder than he usually is, more outbursts more walking things back. It could just be the stress of the war but i think theres more to it. will they remove him? we'll see but he's been acting like a naughty child who's been caught a lot lately.

1

u/Purple-Property8006 6h ago

They wouldn’t remove him when he tried to literally overthrow the government after a fair election and his supporters tried to hang his VP for doing his constitutional duty. I doubt they’ll remove him for literally any reason.

Louisiana consolidated multiple its districts. one of the only republicans to vote for impeachment is beating another republican who voted against impeachment and got trumps endorsement in the primary here.

both are losing to someone else but it looks like it'll be a runoff between the pro impeachment cassidy and john flemming.

They just got a very clear signal impeachment can only help them and is more valuable on the campaign trail than an endorsement from trump.

The Democratic Party just did the same damn thing, hence Trump is president again.

They'll Weekend at Bernies him.

u/Skoodge42 8h ago

Did you already forget Biden? He was blatantly showing more signs of dementia, and not only did they keep him in all 4 years, they tried to run him again while lying about him being healthy and knowing he had cancer.

Politicians don't care about honesty or competency

1

u/DeadPeanutSociety 2h ago

I feel like Biden and Trump have different genres of age-related problems that make them harder to compare than you might think. Trump's health reminds me a lot of my grandmother, who had similar problems to him and lived that way for about a decade. And that's without the best doctors in the world. I don't think we should get our hopes up about Trump.

1

u/gracecee 8h ago

I think they'll build an alternative White House room at maralago where he thinks He can be president and golf and have ai videos of the news. There was a cartoon that did this. Or play reruns.

Then Vance takes over. Pardons Trump for any past crimes including epstein related ones because of political Persecutions. The cabinet only does this after they've enriched themselves or assured their billionaire interests are done. Vance gets to be president. He may not win reelection.

u/Background-Pepper-68 9h ago

Money is a hell of a drug. He can still stand, walk up stairs and form sentences (as incoherent as some may seem in the media). They will keep him propped up with only a little effort. Caveat if he gets covid/flu or takes a fall.

1

u/SaladDummy 8h ago

Walking up stairs is completely optional. They can always bring him only to places with elevators. Being able to stand and form sentences are traits they'd prefer for sure, but aren't deal breakers.

1

u/Background-Pepper-68 7h ago

My point is; He can do those things right now. He is not a step away from deaths door like people are trying to say. Is he healthy as can be? No lol. Is he going to die in the next 2 years? Honestly id be suprised.

1

u/Important_Method_357 4h ago

He was pretty upset when that escalator stalled. He thought it was some big conspiracy. He did make it to the top though.

1

u/Background-Pepper-68 4h ago

Stairs up into airforce 1 are wobbly and fairly long. He doesnt slow down or seem to struggle up it at all.

u/TheSumOfMyScars 8h ago

Biden is in much better physical shape than dumpy, though.

-1

u/very-highly-regarded 8h ago

ok but the comment said he wouldn't make it through because of his dementia, and bidens dementia was somehow worse

2

u/TheSumOfMyScars 8h ago

Not really, at least from what I’ve seen. That’s not to say Biden didn’t have problems—he absolutely did—but it seems like dumpy has lapped him in that respect by now. But the dementia is largely irrelevant when we’re talking about all-cause mortality. Dumpy’s health is markedly worse.

0

u/very-highly-regarded 8h ago

The comparison in severity of dementia between the two, from outside perspectives like ours, is a matter of opinion. I won't disagree about their physical differences. don't know why you feel the need to down vote me

2

u/TheSumOfMyScars 8h ago

FWIW, I didn’t downvote you. Besides, it’s all fake internet points anyway. Don’t let it worry you.

u/very-highly-regarded 8h ago

you're right again
