15. I'm conflicted about Trump's future
Sun Mar 29, 2026, 07:59 PM
Sunday

ASSUMING there are elections in 2026 and 2028 and Trump and most Republicans are turned out in those two elections . . . .

Trump will leave office in January 2029; he will turn 83 in June 2029.

On one hand, I'd celebrate for a month if he died tomorrow or anytime in the next three years.

On the other hand, damn but it would be fun for him to live to be 90 so we all could watch and cheer as he faded into N.O.T.H.I.N.G.:
-- Maybe himself but certainly many of his lieutenants go to jail
-- No one, no, not anyone would invite him to anything -- he could rot in his Mar-A-Lago surroundings
-- Much of the crap he left behind in DC would be ripped down, paved over, forgotten.
-- Slowly things would return to pre-Trump normal, or, to an even better post-Trump glory
-- Maybe Melania would pack it in, take her pre-nuptial $$$$ and go back to Slovenia or some other shithole
-- The rest of the family would fade into nothing, counting their billions
-- Anyone who wished could mock him and he couldn't do a thing about it.
