I have this fear that he died of COVID during his first term and was replaced by a (much younger) imitator and deepfakes.

I think a fleshmask makes far more sense given how he looks.

The flags here were lowered to half mast recently and I got excited.

Unfortunately it was something local and not my hope.

I hope when Frump dies, ALL flags will be flown EXTRA HIGH that glorious day.

[-] isleepinahammock@lemmy.blahaj.zone 6 points 15 hours ago

I want to get a telescoping flag pole. That way when someone wicked dies, I can fly the flag at DOUBLE mast.

[-] robocall@lemmy.world 6 points 15 hours ago

I assume the queue to shit and piss on his grave is going to be very long.

[-] ImADifferentBird@piefed.blahaj.zone 15 points 20 hours ago

My father in laws fondest wish was to outlive Trump. Unfortunately, he didn't make it. So I have to live that wish for him.

I have a bottle of champagne that was gifted to my partner and I at our wedding. We were originally saving it for a milestone anniversary, but we have instead decided that we uncork it when It Happens.

I check the news every morning. One of these days, I’ll see that the little blood clot we’re all rooting for finally won. And that will be such a good day.

[-] HalfSalesman@lemmy.world 14 points 20 hours ago

I aim to be alive but I also probably will be risking alcohol poisoning that day so who knows if I see the next day.

Those who are about to die, we salute you

[-] Skullgrid@lemmy.world 6 points 17 hours ago

I've been dealing with the kind of mental health issue alluded to here for a long time, for myself and people I've known.

Get revenge on the people that wronged you by flourishing. Remove yourself from toxicity and thrive as hard as you can just to leave the haters in the shitty place that you both intersected at, while you grow and blossom and evolve, and they are left the stagnant monkeys that they are.

[-] GalacticSushi@lemmy.blahaj.zone 23 points 22 hours ago

Think about how funny the internet is going to be when the good news is announced 🥰

[-] JennaR8r@lemmy.dbzer0.com 5 points 16 hours ago

Internet?? That will be a day for being outside dancing in the streets!

[-] lemmy_get_my_coat@lemmy.world 14 points 21 hours ago

What a horrid cunt. Will be a great day.

[-] TotallynotJessica@lemmy.blahaj.zone 11 points 20 hours ago

but cunts are warm and inviting, while Trump is cold-hearted and repulsive

[-] Korhaka@sopuli.xyz 29 points 1 day ago

I want to see his exit wound every time I see him on live TV.

[-] SayJess@lemmy.blahaj.zone 17 points 22 hours ago

If that were to happen, I’d hope that there would be multiple angles. For posterity.

[-] jaybone@lemmy.zip 10 points 21 hours ago

It’ll just make him a martyr to these assholes. And when that last cheeseburger finally gets him, I swear it will be a conspiracy theory that he was poisoned by Obama or whoever.

[-] applebusch@lemmy.blahaj.zone 4 points 17 hours ago

so fucking what? they dont need an excuse to ruin everything. let him be a martyr, and the next one and the next one until they get the fucking message.

[-] Quokka@quokk.au 4 points 16 hours ago

Reagan went out slowly over 10 years with Alzheimers and they still worshipped him.

They will find any excuse to worship whoever they want because they are not bound by logic or reason.

So if they’re going to worship him regardless, might as well hope to stop the damage he causes sooner.

[-] captainlezbian@lemmy.world 4 points 17 hours ago

Yeah I want lightning to do it

[-] renegadespork@lemmy.jelliefrontier.net 1 points 17 hours ago* (last edited 17 hours ago)

You’re absolutely right. He needs to go out with a whimper, not a bang.

[-] Yerbouti@sh.itjust.works 5 points 18 hours ago

I have a nice bottle just waiting for a special occasion.

[-] morgunkorn@discuss.tchncs.de 10 points 22 hours ago

i always read this word as "orbituary", and now o fancy thinking of his ungodly remains in low earth orbit, slowly breaking down at they reenter the atmosphere.

[-] jaybone@lemmy.zip 4 points 21 hours ago

I could see him putting himself in orbit, in some kind of space coffin. Maybe with help from bezos. And making a big spectacle of it before he dies. People make some jokes and then everyone forgets about it. Ten years later, there’s some obscure news story about it get hit by some orbiting garbage and knocking it into the atmosphere, and nobody caring.

[-] Berengaria_of_Navarre@lemmy.world 11 points 22 hours ago

And shit on his grave! Don't forget shit on his grave!

His grave will be the most popular gender-neutral bathroom on Earth.

[-] samus12345@sh.itjust.works 10 points 20 hours ago

They're gonna need maximum security 24/7 on wherever he's buried.

[-] melsaskca@lemmy.ca 7 points 22 hours ago

Now I understand Elvis Costello's song "Tramp the Dirt Down" much better. That one was about Margaret Thatcher, but if the shoe fits.

[-] Tiresia@slrpnk.net 1 points 15 hours ago

Cute y'all think this is going to die with him.

They might replace him with someone competent.

[-] TotallynotJessica@lemmy.blahaj.zone 3 points 11 hours ago* (last edited 11 hours ago)

Few can match his weird charisma with the masses, even if they can better bend the government to their will. When strongman leaders die, they are notoriously hard to replace, so considering how Trump has torn down anyone with independent popularity while filling his administration with weaklings like Vance, the party will not stay in power without him. Even much of the right will be sick of the state of the economy, despite their unwillingness to admit that it was all their fault. This wave of fascism will die with Trump, and that's why nobody has succeeded in replace him over the last decade.

Besides, I think the oligarchs will want more stability after he's gone, and with the Democrats getting more corrupt every year, placing them in power will be a no brainer. Foolish liberals will believe whatever bullshit they're sold about "rebuilding our democracy" and "swinging the pendulum back," while some Gavin Newsom like corporat will be chosen as the next king. With the rise of China as the dominant superpower, they'll sell everyone on anticommunist bullshit that'll win over many of fascists that used to follow Trump. They'll likely continue throwing minorities like trans people and immigrants under the bus, but they'll be nicer about it and dress it up as "serious concerns" to give plausible deniability to people who thought Trump only went too far.

If that's what you mean by replace him with someone competent, then maybe you're correct. However, that'll be a distinctly different stage to what we have right now, and it likely won't last either for the very same reason that neoliberalism led to fascism in the first place.

[-] Tiresia@slrpnk.net 1 points 1 hour ago

At this point, most of Trump's inner circle can't risk a return to rule of law. Without a Republican president securing pardons, many people in power can get jailed.

Strongmen are hard to replace, but that creates power struggles within the inner circle rather than a calm return to liberal democracy.

Project 2025 was written and executed competently because of people other than Trump. There will be a Project 2029, a similar step towards autocracy.

With Google replacing its search with AI and similar substitutions being made across media, the information that people will be consuming >90% of the time will be malleable everywhere all at the same time in the same way.

Those data centers popping up everywhere aren't being built for nothing, they want AI to be so plentiful as to suffuse everything, so that events can simply be hallucinated into or out of existence, and you can't tell the difference between Mandela Effect, Memory Hole, or genuine change in available evidence.

This is why tech company leaders were put in the most prominent position during the inauguration; it is through them that the post-truth state of a stable fascist regime will be accomplished.

They can't let this project go to waste. They've invested trillions in this, committed countless felonies, and burned bridges with allies and economic partners across the world. Either they continue to commit or their ambitions collapse forever.

You dont have to wait for Long.

[-] samus12345@sh.itjust.works 1 points 20 hours ago

Only 13 more years if he lives as long as his dad did.

He won't. Have you seen the shape he's in? The constant bruising, the dementia, the falling asleep during meetings? He doesn't have that long left.

[-] samus12345@sh.itjust.works 3 points 18 hours ago* (last edited 18 hours ago)

That's what people have been saying for the past ten years. He's still around and, unfortunately, has the best health care in the world. Not to say I'm not hopeful you're correct, mind!

[-] anomnom@sh.itjust.works 2 points 19 hours ago

Dementia takes a long time to kill people. Especially if they’re surrounded by caretakers and servants. Until they stop drinking and die of dehydration, it’s really only heart failure/ stroke or falls that kill them. I doubt someone so narcissistic has a DNR or end of life directives.

It’ll be interesting to see how much longer he’ll be able to walk though. He’s unfortunately likely to finish out the term first.

I have a feeling his health will take a rapid downturn after January 20 or so. Peter Thiel will want his puppet to go into the 2028 election with an incumbency advantage and a sympathy hook, and at that point, it won't use up any of his constitutionally-permitted terms.
