Sure, there was the attempted assassination of Reagan and the fears for Obama as the first black President, but in those cases it was a lone nutter rather than a conspiracy.
How long can Trump crash the market before an angry billionaire decides to take him out? The remaining Koch brother is already pouring money into legal challenges against Trump…
It’s hard to say. He’s definitely closer to it than any president since JFK. But security is way better these days. And before the FBI comes knocking on my door, this is just an objective analysis.
We’ve already had a shooter with a near miss. So clearly there’s the will to do this among some segment of the population. Probably a conservative who feels betrayed or person who is truly far left, (not just a progressive).
However, security during the campaign and for JFK was a lot less than it is now. It’s going to be a lot harder to get close enough with a rifle. If you think of a plan the USSS has already thought about it and probably has a counter of some sort.
So while he’s definitely the closest, I don’t think we’ll see another president assassinated unless they do something truly stupid like gut the USSS.
A public assassination like Kennedy’s is meant to send a message. Trump would just have a cardiac event and never come out of the hospital. The real issue will be that he’s old and fat and eats trash, so he could have a legit health problem and die from natural causes easily at his age.
But then, President JD Vance. I don’t think anyone but Peter Thiel and Elon Musk want that. Trump sucks, but he’s the devil you know. Vance could be turboHitler or just hand the whole country to Silicon Valley. Rule by ChatGPT may be the worst of all possible worlds.
Trump crashing the economy, Trump dying from whatever, Vance taking over and taking credit for any kind of recovery sounds almost like its planned.
Nah. The damage Trump has done can’t be undone.
Sure vance might replace him and take credit for any recovery, but this level of destruction was not planned.
I do hope so. The whole don’t buy american movement is just gonna pick up more and more. Once people realise that that’s the best course of action anyway, there is no going back.
Vance has no conviction behind anything he ever says. Just google “jd vance never trump” and I’m sure you’ll find a slew of videos from a few years ago where he was saying he’s “a never trump guy”.
Kinda funny how quickly he spread his asshole to present himself for trump then.
Vance could be relatively good. Signs point to no, but those signs are weak. The only thing I truly know about him is that he’ll lie for power. What he does once he gets that power is anyone’s guess.
He’s close to Peter Thiel. His book is really fucking condescending towards the rural poor. (Why don’t they just get out like he did?) He’s young enough to go for a second term if he gets half a first term. And he hates Trump except when he needs to use him to gain power.
That’s the complete record of what we know about Vance. Maybe his book was bullshit that he knew would play well with rich conservatives. Maybe he was using Peter Thiel. Maybe there’s a human in there we’ve never seen. Or maybe not.
YES. This guy gets it. Nobody understands how lucky we are to have this fuckwit as president. Do you see all these actual fascists constantly up in his prostate? Trump was a proof of concept. These taint-lickers are panting to have control. Let’s see how his mouth-breathing paint-eating constituency acts when this fat fuck is dead. Probably no different, but maybe.
Yeah but the difference is Trump has the magnetism and Vance doesn’t? Usually when a cult leader dies the whole cult kinda fizzles out.
I think what you call “magnetism” is the balls to straight up lie to your supporters like they’re stupid. Seriously, I think Trump demonstrated that you can just say whatever feels good and people will accept it with zero regard for reality. That’s what was assumed false before Trump. I think they know the game plan now.
But he also says it stupid like them, in a way that can’t be faked. That’s why they love him. It’s the classic “wanting to hear your opinion in someone else’s voice”. They want to hear their shitty opinions in someone else’s voice. Except because they’re idiots, they get grammar and syntax wrong. Or they ramble through a dozen conspiracy theories in a single run on sentence. No one but trump can carry on the way he does (at least without a script).
Tell that to the Christians. You might even say their leader dying sparked the whole thing.
It was much easier to fake a resurrection back then.
It’s also totally possible to survive on a cross for three days and for someone to take you down while you’re unconscious and put you in a cave.
I mean… have you seen how good ML-generated videos are getting these days?
We could make a religion out of this.
Exactly this. Donald Trump has the Charisma to assemble a cult whereas then these other people can hold together the coalition. Everyone’s just writing Trump’s coattails so without him the whole thing just falls apart
This is misguided, the rubes will believe whatever the talking heads on Fox News or the algorithmic fuckery from x or reddit, etc
I agree but I believe that’s why his underlings are using him as a front to destroy all checks and balances so when he does fizzle out, they can keep control.
Sure the cult does, but the dictatorship they left doesn’t fizzle out.
I don’t know if you even need the magnetism. Vance has shown he can lie just as bald-facedly As Trump does. For god sakes there was a time where the Republican hordes were carry ground cups of JD Vance cum or something. Does no one remember that? I wouldn’t be so sure they wouldn’t just transfer right to him.
WE ARE NOT LUCKY TO HAVE A FUCKING HALF-DEAD RETARD AS PRESIDENT. THIS IS NOT OKAY AT ANY FUCKING LEVEL.
Your president is half-dead on a few levels sweetie.
The only thing possibly holding them off is that there’s 2 or 3 factions all wanting to long knife™ eachother at the first chance, which means they have to be ready to go as soon as the power vacuum happens, and one of the factions controls the VP seat.
That might delay the chaos a bit, but not for long.
Let’s see how his mouth-breathing paint-eating constituency acts when this fat fuck is dead. Probably no different, but maybe.
Trump and the media have built a cult of personality around Trump. I don’t see how that power could transfer to another person, I can’t think of another person in the line up that has personality.
I disagree, and I’ll point you to down-ballot MAGA Republicans who are running and winning saying the same things. I strongly believe that this has nothing to do with Trump’s “personality”, it’s to do with what he was first willing to say and get away with. Nobody assumed you could get away with it and succeed.
Trump sucks, but he’s the devil you know. Vance could be turboHitler or […]
I don’t buy that.
Whoever would be able, and willing, and succeeding with the first one, is an evil person, and would already have a plan with the second one. An evil plan, I guess, that would make the second one scared enough to become that puppet.
You don’t have to beat around the bush, you can just say putin.
I haven’t thought of him. I think he has very different methods, and btw, Orange is already his puppet :)
I have thought about money-stuffed Americans (not only from the Us of) and Chinese methods.
I’m personally scared that you’re allowed to vote.
Not anywhere near you.
Where exactly are you allowed to cast a vote?
So scared?
Is this some USA defaultism I’m sensing
anyone but Peter Thiel and Elon Musk want that.
And Putin
So first kill Vance unawares, then kill Drumpf? Gotcha, noted!
President Mike Johnson outlaws women going out in public alone and institutes daily Bible reading classes. Attendance is mandatory if you don’t want to end up in an El Salvador slave prison.
If we’re being real, it’s not likely at all. He’s probably safer than Biden was.
Not only does the secret service impose incredibly tight security (not perfect, mind you), but Trump doesn’t go anywhere except the White House and his shithole golf course.
In order to assassinate him, it would probably have to be an inside job. That seems exceptionally unlikely.
He’s also useful. A lot of the kinds of people who might wish to be rid of him back in the day would much rather put him to use for their own ends.
Statistically, he’ll die of poor health in the next four years. He’s very unhealthy, and very old. Medicine can only do so much.
We thought that when he got covid though.
Some people are kept alive through sheer meanness.
And in that case, access to treatment not available to the general public yet.
I bet it wasn’t horse dewormer for him.
So he got the horse rewormer then. I think you’re onto something
It’s said that the good die young. That orange shitstick might be nearly immortal.
Mmm idk, personally I know a selfish POS that killed himself a few years out of college. Then again: every rule will have its exceptions.
It’s the mean granny rule.
My hypothesis: narcissistic people live longer, because they apply the placebo effect at all times to themselves.
You could really be on to something there. It scans
It scans?! Yar, I’ll be lootin’ this here phrase, matey!
Phrase is free, may simply take, comrade
I think it’s simply due to stress. Most people care about people other than themselves. They worry about the effect of their actions on others. They worry about not living up to their potential. They worry about letting people they care about down. Narcissists by contrast get to live blissfully ignorant low stress lives. Look at Trump. That bastard has not a care in the world. In his mind, he’s already perfect. Notice how the presidency tends to rapidly age people, but it didn’t seem to affect Trump? This is why.
Yeah he’s golfing everyday
He’s stressed doing politics for an hour, so he’ll go golf for 4hrs. If anything, he’s getting younger.
I agree with your theory that narcissists live longer but I also think they suck the lives out of the people closest to them
Sooo… Narcissists are a type of vampire?
More like the Wraiths from Stargate Atlantis.
Yes, but not even the sexy kind of vampire
Keep sending him burgers and fries. Fried in lard too.
If he’s got dementia, he’ll probably die within 10 years of his first symptoms, and that’s been a while. It’ll still be too long, obviously.
One can only hope…
Something that will really perk up my attention is if people start shooting at his security. That will indicate anger is so ripe that even protecting him makes you a target.
Hitler survived 30+ attempts, so don’t count on it. The people running this simulation wants to watch us suffer.
Ok this might be my new favourite conspiracy
Our universe is a simulation created by a group of facists that are using us to research how they can gain and maintain power. If a successful fascist regime takes hold then the experiment will be over and the simulation will be shut off, the only way to survive is to continue to fend off fascisum.
100% chance but mostly because i think that the plan
- Let trump do what he want
- Kill trump
- Put a puppet like vance in is place
- Use trump death to do what they want with the reason of stopping the big bad left
I’ve been saying this for months. How long until 47 “has a stroke.”
Not sure why anyone would bother making it look natural/accidental?
If he gets assassinated, he becomes a martyr.
Had some polonium tea, fell out a window, then shot himself in the back of the head.
Fell down an elevator shaft, landed on some bullets.
Corner’s report: Looks like suicide to me.
No it needs to be a murder done by “those loony lefties”, otherwise they can’t use it to lock up people like AOC and Bernie Sanders.
Twice
Calling it now: it will be one of his MAGA supporters who feels betrayed somehow.
God please no. We dont need him to be a martyr.
very small… I mean, can you imagine the accuracy needed for a bullet to find his brain?
There’s already been like five attempts, and two of them got shots off. Eventually, someone might get lucky.
If they get lucky, we all get lucky
I think things would get a bit more complicated than that, unfortunately.
Complicated, sure
But really, how much worse could it get?
He definitely wants to make himself an emperor, and with that comes real danger,
Including those who are lucky enough to live in civilised countries outside the US
'Murica exports wars, both cultural and military, to the detriment of us all
I’m up all night to get lucky.
We rub a mexican monkey
Not sure Vance is much of a gain over Trump. How far down the chain would one have to go to find someone palatable?
All are republican except for the 12th in line which is RFK Jr listed as independent. The list goes to 18.
No idea, but I’m not opposed to finding out.
I’m in.
You don’t want Johnson taking over. He’d go all in for the Republic of Gilead, and that’s one of the few scenarios would be meaningfully worse than what’s happening now.
That’s the problem. It’s shit all the way doen.
The president has to be american unfortunately
They only need to get lucky once.
He’ll probably succumb to his lifestyle choices first. He might even get bird flu or a virus long thought eradicated. It would be really tragic if it was something climate related like his Florida home sinking into the ocean.
He is certainly one of the most likely to die in office. Just on a purely actuarial basis, I should think.
My hope the shooter is a Big Mac.
I’m not sure if he’ll get unalived with funny prejudice, but if I had to give pointers, don’t aim for the head, it’s unlikely to hit any vital organ in there.
