How long did Trump Sr. live? asked a friend

Will this be our only hope?

I don't think so, I replied. As soon as he drops dead, or even "succumbs" after a long illness there will be riots in the streets and plenty of conspiracy theories.

....Trump finally fell ill with pneumonia in mid-1999. He was admitted to Long Island Jewish Medical Center in New Hyde Park, where he died at age 93 on June 25. His funeral was held at the Marble Collegiate Church, and was attended by over 600 people.

He did not have burger-burger-burger inflammation the way Bloated Cheeto does.

Honestly, I give him 3 years, and the last one demented and irascible.

one of the people that he has thrown under the bus beats the crap out of him he will probably live way longer than he deserves. Based on the things he says I think he has the beginnings of dementia and I worry if he has access to the nuclear codes ever again.

I think we are lucky he didn't do more damage than he did when he was in office, although he pretty much alienated all of our allies. I am quite sure the autocrats will do everything can to help him get re-elected again. Just hope the American public takes him seriously and makes sure that never happens again.

...the likely cocktail of prescriptions keeping Trump alive despite the cardiologist's nightmare of a diet he consumes. It is known that he takes a fairly heroic dose of Crestor, which is one of the most potent statins.

I have no doubt that when the end comes, however, it will be sudden. Trump has been ignoring physicians' advice for decades. I'm surprised he never got on the currently-fashionable GLP-1 drugs (e.g. Ozempic, Victoza) that all the Hollywood types are using to lose weight. He's a candidate if there ever was one.

They once had the "Elvis in a Box" moneymaker. Bet they can't wait for the "Trump in a Box" issue.
