How long does Trump have left?

In office?
On earth?

Will he just carry on, an unwell man, until 2028? Or will he call it quits and resign?

Or will he pass before then anyway?

I am no Trump supporter, but he really is 'going out sad'

Edit: context
Its becoming clear that Trump has a kind of dementia. A guy on tiktok claims that at the World Cup Final, he was 'sundowning' by wondering around everywhere.

Him being handled there and in Turkiye, is proof enough for me. Apparently he constantly smells of urine as well, due to his meds.

Awww, thanks for the shoutout 😊

I can guarantee that the checking the news each morning with fingers crossed is not a partisan act.

I feel the same about every vile, evil megalomaniac who lines his pockets, and those in his sphere, on the backs of the suffering and death of others. 🤷‍♀️
Thinking of similar autocratic, authoritarian leaders and the devastation they have caused and I don't see how anyone wouldn't tbh

You’re welcome, weirdo.

Come on, the man's a convicted criminal and a rapist. If there was someone within the Labour Party in power with that sort of past and exhibiting similar levels of fraud, corruption, lying and venality whilst dragging us into an utterly pointless war, you bet we'd all be exhibiting similar or greater levels of hatred and vitriol towards them.

Also we are more sensitive to right wing fascist type people ... given some of us had family who died fighting them in the last century.

I saw that 🤭 that man should definitely never play poker because his face said it all. Or perhaps he was doing what I do sometimes when someone farts and leaves me with it and I want others to know it wasn't me, so I start pinching my nose and frantically waving my arms.

That is the lead agent of Trump secret service detail, surely he’s questioning his future after that.

I think you'll find plenty of people in the US who can say exactly the same.

In Europe something between 15 and 20 million people died because of Nazism during WWII, 383,700 of them British service members. Probably 405,400 Americans, mostly service members, did. So yes, plenty of Americans have family who died, but nothing like as many as Europeans who have. For Europeans it was rather closer to home; even if our countries were not actually invaded and occupied, we did get bombed a fair bit. I don't think Americans felt, or needed to feel, quite the same sense of urgency about it all.

How about the knock on effects ? Would the Bengal famine (which still looms large in Indian folk memory) have happened or killed as many, had WW2 not happened ?

It'

AskingQuestionsAllTheTime · 30/07/2026 18:22

Are there vast numbers of Americans whose families died in the Bengal famine? I never knew that.

dottiehens · 30/07/2026 19:08

Yes, how about JD Vance or Marco Rubio? Much younger and healthy.

Sereine · 30/07/2026 19:30

Someone really needs to focus on Trump's medical advisors and whether they are complying with medical ethics constantly putting out these fictional reports about him. Quite apart from the issue of dementia, we can all see that their reports on his height and weight are utter rubbish.

I just want someone to actually vomit over Trump - ideally if they are of a similar proximity to that bloke.

Remember when a man collapsed in the Oval Office? It's here. https://www.huffingtonpost.co.uk/entry/stephen-colbert-trump-oval-office-pic_n_690d7e31e4b0063dd27d0b94
Trump standing whilst others attended to the fainted man. Just shows what a horrible, heartless, uncaring, clueless, pathetic thing Trump is.

That incident gave me the feeling that Trump had absolutely no idea what to do, and so he did nothing.

I think that covers almost all incidents with Trump. Even the incident where he should have ducked, I don't think he ducked.

Other presidents have helped out.

AskingQuestionsAllTheTime · 31/07/2026 12:42

It rather looked like a sort of concrete case of "I didn't know him, I never met him", which has been one of Trump's mantras for several years about anyone inconvenient.

Gcol · 01/08/2026 06:55

He said that of Epstein….

TimeFlysWhenYoureHavingRum · 01/08/2026 07:02

Its unlikrly he will ever see the inside of a jail cell but a lot of his family and associates probably will.

He did indeed. And of any of his long-time associates who became inconvenient when their criminality was established.

I severely hope so , but even the stress of all the Nuremberg style court cases will make me a little bit happy - may they never get a peaceful nights sleep ever again.
