if the percentage of people who want him to croak + percentage of people who believe he faked it constitute a plurality.

survival and jail with bankruptcy after his term ends. But if he dies, it is what it is.

so he can face all the criminal charges that will be brought against him. Tax fraud, mail fraud, insurance fraud, money laundering, obstruction of justice, perjury, and last but not least -- depraved indifference mass manslaughter.

Then when he is convicted of some or all of them and goes to prison, I want to see a picture of him after his 1st 2-minute prison haircut with the electric clippers. I want him sitting in a solitary cell 23 hrs a day with nothing to do. And since he doesn't read, and no visitors to give a crap about him, he will go even more insane.

Death is a much too easy out for him. Besides, it is extremely important that he be made an example. No POTUS is above the law. The emoluments clause of the constitution means business. Personally using the Justice Dept for one's political advantage is illegal. Taking bribes, offering bribes, cheating on taxes are all illegal. Ignoring Congress' subpoenas cannot be tolerated.

However, his dying from the disease may be the best thing for the nation as a lesson that this is no joke as he's made it.

Country over party.

8. My youngest son sent his older brother a birthday message

yesterday wishing him a happy birthday and hope that Trump dies before the day is out. The birthday boy messaged back that would be some present! The younger one replied it was too bad Trump didn't get COVID last April so he could die on his birthday.

You know who my two sons are voting for, right?

9. I think in many ways he has died...We just don't have to suffer through the funeral

Although it may be the first presidential funeral where none of the living presidents attended.

11. It would be best if he dies in prison, many years from now

With all his crimes exposed. But the most important thing is that he’s out of office and can’t do any further damage.

As long as he’s alive he’s one of the best GOTV tools we have!! If he’s dead, some of the more “soft” vote might not show up thinking Biden is gonna win anyway

Have to agree

16. Best for the country if he dies. If alive, he will tweet and run

his big mouth constantly. Even though he can't do the harm that he does as president, he would still keep everything stirred up.

One of the biggest jobs that Joe will have to do is to "pour oil on troubled waters" (get everybody to calm down.) It would be almost impossible with the Twit tweeting his devisive (sp) crap.

And every day, for the rest of his miserable fucking life, I want to have him experience people laughing at him and calling him a shitty businessman, and a pathetic, impeached one-term loser.
I want Melania, after taking him for every nickel he has left, to dump him, and then tell the world that that he has a micro penis, but it doesn't matter because he can't get it up anyway.
