    Assassination would be good for MAGA. They’d worship him as a martyr.

    I’d like Trump to die ASAP. From natural causes, like a heart attack from eating too much McD’s.

      He is going to be a martyr no matter how he dies.

      The conspiracy theories around his death are going to make every other conspiracy theory look quaint.

      Why would that not martyr him anyway?

      If I were to die now they would say it was so that my soul could lead them.

        They always look for genitalia, Leto thought. Perhaps I should have something made, a gross protuberance to shock them.

      There are zero people to step in and rally voter support for MAGA without Trump.

        There’s JD Vance.

        There’s Ron DeSantis.

        There’s Jim Jordan.

        There’s Matt Gaetz.

        There are plenty of MAGA republicans in Congress who would step up. To say otherwise is to be living under a rock. Trump is far from the only prominent fascist ass hole in US politics.

          None of them will rally voter support. They are all wet blankets for the MAGA voter base, even iif they want to be the next Trump.
