I actually think the alternative (Vance) is worse.

Much worse. And clever too.

I don't wish him dead but I'd love to see him in prison.

Likewise. Same with the traitor who suspended our Parliament unlawfully, Boris Johnson.

There’s no proof my uncle who I’m going to see later is arrive until I get there. That doesn’t mean he’s dead. Most people are alive for the vast majority of the time.

I mean, I’m presuming your uncle is slightly less famous.

Same here. He has a lot to answer for before he dies.

Vance would have to pick a VP (which may well be Johnson) but then Johnson would have to resign as speaker (and leave the House).

The succession is POTUS<-VPOTUS<-Speaker of the Representatives<-President of Senate and then through the cabinet.

As Gerald Ford showed, you can end up with a POTUS that nobody technically voted for (see also: Truss, Sunak).

See also Wilson/Callaghan; Blair/Brown.

Why would he be dead though? It’s not exactly common for people even at his age to drop dead from being perfectly healthy. Seems somewhat random

Isn’t he 79?! I’d have said it was very common to suddenly drop dead at that age. Heart attack, stroke etc. Especially for men who are definitely not in perfect health… he has already been diagnosed with various age related things and is widely assumed to be senile. He’s the oldest present in US history.

I could be wrong but I think this all started because of a picture that circulated of him where he has a bruise on the back of his hand (possibly from an IV) and queen Elizabeth had the same bruise when Liz Truss was made president and then she passed a couple of days later.

I missed Liz Truss being president. What was she president of?

Lettuce?

I think if he’d died he would have tweeted about it.

Exactly this! 😀
He's alive. It's just X that is rife with rumours.

If he is dead I doubt it’ll be for long as he’s a really fast healer you know ..

Just like his bestie Putin.

Are we talking “still breathing” or “brain dead”?

What is wrong with you people. To hope someone you don't even know dead. Never seen such a horrible group of women in my life

I would love to see him dead. It's too good for him. He is the most dangerous living being on the planet and I am a thoroughly decent human being. I would do anything for anyone me. I'd give you the shirt off my back.

Perfectly healthy? Overweight, incoherent speech, extensive bruising on hands... He's clearly far from healthy. I've seen this type of scenario with older relatives. He's on the way out.

There have been rumours about this on social media since last night.

I'm always very sceptical of these rumours that [insert extremely famous person] has already died and the mainstream media just hasn't reported it yet. There were a few of these rumours about Prince Philip and the Queen. Why would the media keep quiet about it? Although the Queen's death wasn't announced for a few hours, the media gave blanket coverage to speculation of her condition in the run-up.

Anyway, as others have said - Vance is, if anything, even worse than Trump.

Point taken, but I'd say that a more accurate comparison would be with Brezhnev or Tito, where those behind the scenes took their time before announcing the death - they have too much to lose.

He’s probably busy bribing /blackmailing the Supreme Court justices to legalise his wretched tariffs!

When pushed into it by your absurd comments, I too would admit that of the alternatives "Trump causes untold misery to hundreds of thousands of people" and "Trump dies", I'd prefer the latter. But that's because your hyperbolic bollocks bring that feeling out in me. I have not wished him dead before this thread, and on the whole I'd prefer him to be struck dumb by a stroke. Satisfied now?

I wouldn't have mourned Adolf Hitler, I shan't mourn Putin and I certainly won't mourn Trump. As others have said, I'll have sympathy for any family members who miss him.

I'd say everyone expected Gordon Brown to succeed Tony Blair at some point after the 2005 general election, before 2010.

US system is different, the one thing I do like is the two term rule.

Thissickbeat · 30/08/2025 15:12

He's not even slightly healthy. He's a lumbering lump of a man. Not a fit looking 79yr old.

Agreed. My late husband was a stroke victim who died in his early 80s. Even with hemiparesis and kidney failure he looked better than Trump and displayed sharper mental acuity.

If he is, then it’s President Vance. If you think Trump is bad, he will be worse. And without the benefit of laughing at his funny fake tan and hair do.

No, but we can laugh at his badly-applied makeup.
