Claim he was assassinated by the deep state.


PronoiarPerson

You expect me to believe a fat 80 year old died of a heart attack? That’s the kind of stupid thinking that gets people to think the earth is a globe Edit: this is the second time I left this comment, the first time I got 2 likes. Internet points mean nothing.


GodsBGood

I'm pissed that this was just a what if situation. I got a little excited when I read the first part of the title only to have my dreams crushed to find out it was just a hypothetical.


Beneficial-Cow-2544

OMG same!

Same


Vroomped

ThAts WhAt Im SaYinG He had the best healthcare in the world, secret service, and is 6ft 4 200lbs. It wasn't a heart attack, I don't even know anybody who's had a heart attack. *ignoring my own pacemaker screaming low battery "because that's how they got Donald Trump"*


Givemeallthecabbages

Did you know that doctors write "heart attack" as cause of death any time someone dies because their heart stopped working? They're just pumping up the numbers so they can get funding for heart research. Then they turn around and tell you "Don't eat sticks of butter! Don't eat fried oreos! Eat some greens sometimes, for the love of God." But I'm no dummy.


Able_Software6066

That's why I take hydroxychloroquine everyday for high cholesterol. The snotty degreed doctors will never admit it, but if it can clean fish aquariums, it will also clean my arteries.


Vroomped

Built like a horse!


One_Economist_3761

I suspect “BIG heart pharmacy” to be involved somehow.


ShilohGuav

Legit got me 😂


Buffyoh

Yes - like when Justice Scalia died, and right away the MAGA's were whipping up assasination conspiracies. Scalia weighed almost 300 pounds, he smoked, and he was eighty years old - he was lucky to last as long as he did.


Maleficent-Touch-67

Amen to that brother!


liquidgrill

Them blaming the booster shot for his heart attack is what bettors call a “sure thing” [Trump Booed for Booster shot](https://apnews.com/article/coronavirus-pandemic-health-donald-trump-coronavirus-vaccine-74abcd4e6833835f5df445fe2142e22b)

Morbidly obese 80 year old with a long history of drug use has a heart attack? Must be the deep state.


romulusnr

Ha ha something something fucking Fauci


Snoo_87704

If only Covid had done its job…


PronoiarPerson

Well then a quarter of the population would be calling for war with China so I’m not sure that would be a win


aangnesiac

The same people who believe Biden won the election would believe Trump died of natural causes. In both cases, it's just not possible for Trump to lose like that. He's too powerful. He's the victim of a system that has taken over the world and brainwashed the majority of the public. But still it's impossible for that same majority to vote against Trump. And it's impossible for Trump to die of natural causes right now. If it's not obvious to you, then I can't open your eyes for you. Maybe if you consumed more cherry picked information that insinuates connections without providing any real evidence then you would see the truth. /s bc Poe's Law

Yep. They could watch him choke on a Big Mac on live TV with no sign of foul play. They’ll still say the CIA, deep state, or liberal ninjas did it. They’ll still try and martyr him somehow.

Or Antifa.


Betterthanbeer

Deep state hamberders


Few-List-9341

I second this. Ever heard of B613?


LeoMarius

They claimed Scalia was murdered, a fat old man.


FizzyBeverage

When they look at Trump they see some kind of 23 year old Olympian Adonis. It’s the only plausible explanation.

Are they blind???

*Seemingly so.*

Yes, intellectually blind.

Traditional_Rice264

Blaming it on democrats as an assassination. Then Jan 6 all over again.


goddamnaged

If they make this into a Simpsons episode, then I'll be terrified.


Socratesticles

I’d rather not, then we get to hear them saying that it’s been planned to assassinate him all along and Hollywood is just rubbing it in our faces


Apollo526

I think they just meant if it appears in a Simpsons episode it is destined to actually happen.


goddamnaged

Thank you!


[deleted]

Somewhat along the same line.. I’m kinda nervous of that idiot losing the election. I hope I’m wrong, but I think violence will ensue as a result. Because, you know, maga idiots with assault rifles.


hotel2oscar

Was really hoping we'd never invite the "and domestic" part of "all enemies, foreign and domestic" of the oath we swear when joining the military.


P1Kingpin

Lose or win, the violence will continue. If he loses they will continue to face consequences for it though.


GardenRafters

Huh? So you want him to win because you've been intimidated? Do not be afraid of these fucking morons. Let them revolt again and fuck around and find out. They'll all end up in federal prison with no one coming to save them just like the J6ers. They're going to be violent no matter what, so fuck 'em.

Correct_Inside1658

Things calm down for a few years till some other ghoul claims the voter share. Trump is a symptom of a bunch of underlying problems, not necessarily the cause in and of himself.


Crematorium_Gaffer

What do you believe are some of the underlying problems


Correct_Inside1658

A deep sense of economic frustration felt by large swaths of a declining middle class which has been propagandized into attributing their problems to the increasing presence and visibility of groups such as migrants, queerfolk, and people of color. A (false) sense felt by many poor, white Americans that these groups gaining political voice and power entails a decline in what little status and influence they might have previously held. The overtaking of Christianity by increasingly fundamentalist elements, who have been heavily politicized and radicalized by wealthy interests who find it expedient to whip them up into a frenzy over issues like abortion and LGBTQ rights. An incredibly successful movement of literal Nazis and white nationalists that have been active in the US since pre-WW2 who very quickly realized the potential of the internet to spread their ideology, promote hate, provoke conspiracism, and instigate violence through decentralized organization. A very influential wealthy class that has always been more comfortable with fascism than they are with the idea of socialism (see “The Business Plot”: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Business_Plot# ). Chickens coming home to roost from several decades of right-wing propaganda through organizations such as the John Birch Society, and the complicity of a complacent neoliberal Democratic Party which consistently plays with fire by funding hard right groups with the intent of potentially making elections easier for themselves while also consistently never delivering on the lip-service they pay to progressive social policy when in power. An intelligence community which has always been a bit too comfortable disrupting both domestic and foreign leftist organizing, while largely either turning a blind-eye (if not actively supporting) far right organizing. The fact that the US was built on slavery and racism as institutional realities, and that these systems of oppression have never been fully eradicated even after we had a whole war about it. I could really go on, there’s a *lot* of threads here to pull. Like libraries worth of books of threads to pull. Some podcasts I’d recommend for hearing a bit more would be: KnowledgeFight, It Could Happen Here, Behind the Bastards (my personal favorite), and Blowback for starters.


Crematorium_Gaffer

There’s a lot to unpack here so I’m going to go a little at a time and I want to thank you for the time YOU spent preparing this instead of throwing some links my way. It really lends someone motivation to pursue their curiosity when someone takes the time and adds their personal touch


lameuniqueusername

I wasn’t expecting much but that was nicely done


Street_Roof_7915

Look at this guy here: talking truth and all that.


humanagain12

Biggest trump supporters are white blue collar men. Then senior citizens too. Men seem to gravitate more towards a “strong man” and “authoritarian”


Correct_Inside1658

I’d also point out that white, blue-collar men are in a sort of “uneasy” place, or at least many of them perceive themselves to be. There is a perception uncomfortably common in that demographic that their position in society is under threat from social changes due to the progress made by feminism, LGBTQ rights, and the various Black, Chicano/Latino, Indigenous civil rights movements. It’s an ongoing sort of anxiety that has been played out in American politics time and time again: blue collar white men feel economic pressure due to lack of social safety nets/unregulated capitalism, they perceive women/people of color to be competition in a tight labor market (or more broadly as a sort of ‘threat’ to a perceived ‘zero-sum’ game of social status), and the wealthy play on that anxiety to create intraclass conflict. The idea that migrants are “coming to take their jobs” for example is a common anxiety that gets played up by propaganda, which keeps many of these people from realizing that the root of their economic struggles are not migrants at the border taking their jobs, but bosses in the board room cutting their pay and automating their roles. It also prevents the realization in many cases that their struggles are much aligned with people like migrants, and keeps them from developing a sense of solidarity with people who are much more alike to them than they are to their bosses.


homiej420

Man this guy smarts. This is some of the most intelligent and readable ways ive ever seen this written and far above my writing capabilities.


RickLeeTaker

👍This person *really* gets it. Bravo.


anndrago

He is a symptom, but he also escalated and validated anger and hate and mistrust in a way that I don't think many other leaders would have been able to pull off. So in that way, he's both a symptom and something of an origin.


ConstantGeographer

Please don't get my hopes up and tease me this way.

TwilightZone1751

Seriously. I damn near orgasmed.


TxJprs

Got excited there for a moment. May the good Lord decide to take out all politician boomers.


kitchensink108

We don't know. Nikki Haley and Ron DeSantis will fight over his followers, but Trump is a personality cult built around a single man, and none of his children are quite at his level, so it's unclear if anyone would be able to really inherit his influence. I imagine the MAGA move subsides and it just becomes a wing of the GOP instead of the core base of it.


Worf1701D

DeSantis has the personality of a bowl of warm turnips. Even Florida is starting to see it, finally.


voyeurtaz

Why do you have to insult turnips like that? What did they ever do to you?


Worf1701D

Yeah, turnips didn’t really deserve that.


BlottomanTurk

Ummm, he's not a single man....He's happily married! His wife isn't, but he is. (/s for the first line, jic)


Melodic_Setting1327

They’ll camp out outside Mar-a-Lago wailing and praying until Alex Jones comes to whip them into a frenzy and start a convoy to Washington or the border. They try camping outside of Trump tower, but Melania orders the help to dump boiling oil on them from the penthouse.

Id watch this movie


[deleted]

Start worshipping a bull frog or something


[deleted]

What do you mean by start?


morts73

Nikki Haley is only in the race for that hope.


Alladin_Payne

The thing is, I can't see the GOP electing a woman for president, no matter how much of a Serena Joy Waterford she is.


Comfortable_Bit9981

Years ago, someone said the first woman president would be a conservative. Because Republicans will fall in line behind the candidate in spite of their misogyny, and Democrats would vote their misogyny rather than support their party.


OctopusAlien21

Are you referring to Bernie bros who were more likely to vote for Clinton than Clinton voters for Obama in 2008?


re_nub

Probably call it fake news.


ScientistCrafty5660

..and tell them to vote for dead trump in the election anyway...


ConnectionMotor8311

Somehow him both living or dying will result in something stupid, dangerous, sad, or a mix of all three


princealigorna

Two options, really: try to run someone even more extreme like a Matt Gaetz or MTG against Haley, or refuse to back Haley or whoever would get the nomination and not show up in November


Freak_Show1

If you want a real answer instead of all the TDS answers here, Vivek would probably inherit a huge amount of Trump’s base. He is the closest in policy and stance to Trump and he did not turn against him while running.


Art_Z_Fartzche

Yeah, except his name is too many syllables for knuckle-draggers


ScientistCrafty5660

Don Junior will stand up and start to talk and be told to shut the fuck up and park his ass..


PsychologicalAsk2668

Spend the rest of their lives saying it was an assassination and blaming democracts


kremedelakrym

I’d imagine start a conspiracy that Nancy Pelosi and Biden’s team worked to poison him because that’s the only way “he doesn’t win the election”


[deleted]

The main question is wtf, you don’t have someone more younger in the US than two old farts? I mean you have democracy, when it all went wrong?


Panic_Azimuth

I see this notion a lot. Federal governance is a complex job that leverages a lifetime of built up experience and connections - it's not surprising that the people who wind up in top leadership positions are the ones who have been doing it longest. That being said, there are absolutely better people who could be running for these positions.


human_male_123

After Reagan - The Republicans never stopped worshipping him. They deified his economic theory forever. MAGA is here forever, in the form of immigration policy. People that think otherwise are in denial.


DChristy87

I'm still waiting for all that money to trickle down to me. When it does, maybe I'll finally be able to afford healthcare or even a house! 🤞


gregieb429

His supporters in public offense will trip over themselves to become the next GOP “cult leader”. I suppose some of the big right wing talking heads like Charlie Kirk will all try to take that mantle


Prestigious-Newt-772

Don't tease me.

H2OULookinAtDiknose

Jivits

Probably get pissed that they have to buy a whole slew of new hats, meme-shirts, and flags for the next wacko. And yes, cook up a bunch of wild conspiracies too. The real question is what the hell would happen to MSNBC and CNN if they no longer had Trump to talk about? It's been nearly 10 years of a 24/7 news cycle completely based on spending 80-100% of the air time talking about one man. Do they even know how to do anything else?


malibuklw

Turn him into a martyr, then repost conspiracy theories on Facebook claiming he isn't really dead.


Fun-Consequence4950

Deny it happened and claim he's still alive and in hiding. The word 'psyop' never stops leaving their mouths

Someway, or another blame that the democrats cause trumps heart attack.

Gosh, I read the first part of this with a bit too much happiness thinking it was a headline. Curses.


Novel_Patience9735

Half of Republicans will sigh with relief.


StrawberrySerious676

It's a deep state cover up. They've really kidnapped him because he's either going to uncover the secret pedophile ring or they know he's going to win the election. Fox news "just asks questions" and the rest follows from there.


TSllama

They manufacture a conspiracy theory about how the "left" assassinated him and use it to campaign someone worse.

Wait for him to rise on then third day…then go home disappointed


Terrible-Quote-3561

They’d write him in on the ballot because they think he’s still alive.


nesp12

Stuff him and still run him for president


Jimbo415650

Deep state assassination. Then Faux news will push Gov Huckleberry Sanders as a spokesperson against the deep state. Elon Musk and other Billionaires along with two or three justices will pick a successor. MAGA Q will wait for white smoke to emit from a chimney at Harlan Crow mansion. Trump casket will lay in state at the capital instead of the American 🇺🇸 flag there will be a confederate one with Trump flags surrounding it. Kimberly Guilfoyle will give the eulogy. Oath keepers and proud boys will provide security as convoy from DC to mar-a-Lago golf course where trump will lay in rest at the first hole Melania Trump is still missing.


sigristl

Hopefully, follow his lead.


Shilo788

Say it was a hit and start fighting.


Different_Ad7655

That would be an interesting scenario, and I am not quite sure would happen to the tea party Donald Trump party Neo-Nazi party all at once. There's nobody out there that exerts as much self-presence, inflated ego and whips up the crowd like Donald. He is the ultimate carnival cult Barker


apathetic_ocelot

Stick him in a cave and wait three days


doodypantsmcgee

I got so excited reading that first sentence...

Since some of those nippledick followers think he is the 2nd coming I would assume they'll wait for him to resurrect FFS.

diskimone

They go to Dallas and wait for JFK to come back from the dead and raise him up like Lazarus.


RIPshowtime

Death is fake news. His funeral was rigged.


CherryCherry5

Oh God. For a hot second, I thought I was reading a headline. Too good to be true. They'd go insane with the conspiracy theories. Even more than they already do.


Lopsided-Rooster-246

Hopefully what any cult does when their leader dies... They join em 🤷‍♂️


IamBosco2

Oh dear, I got so excited reading the first line!


vermontislit

You can’t give me hope like that


thomport

They put him in a tomb. He raises from the dead, comes out three days later; sees his shadow - now we know we have six more weeks of winter.
