True confession: Several mornings a week the first thing I do after I pour my coffee is check the news to see if TFG had died.
Sure, some of that wish is for revenge - all the havoc that he has brought and continues to bring to our country. But what 'relief' it would bring - no more 'Trump-24' flags, no more 'Rally Tours' to continue 'The Big Lie,' and finally, a chance for us to go at least one day without seeing his picture everywhere on the MSM!
Am I the only person guilty of this?
Can I sit by you?

(799 posts)I also look forward to reading his obituary. However, Im certain his cult will turn his demise into a conspiracy- he was poisoned, it wasnt a heart attack, etc.

(15,359 posts)people. I'll get it right one of these days.
Every day I open the news and hope for some huge tibbit or indictment or federal grand jury or something that would put And end to this assault On our democracy.
Unfortunately, I've never seen it. Am I a bad person?Or just setting myself up for Failure?

(23,727 posts)we know that in his warped mind he'll claim he's still prez, he's a political prisoner, he'll praise loyalists to
the "cause" and attack disloyal Rs, etc. Keeping the R party off balance & disorganized for years to come.
I hope he lives at least 20/30 years in prison.

Jerry2144
(3,272 posts)his virtuous lifestyle consisting of a Vegan diet, vigorous exercise, trim physique, and drinking Kale smoothies will mean he will live forever.
Wait, you mean he lives on junk food, diet coke, and his only exercise is lifting an 8-ounce golf club and he's not lean and fit? How the heck has that not caught up to him? He did have that series of mini strokes (which he denied, but many people thought he had a major stroke)

Martin Eden
(15,623 posts).. at a local news stand. He would check the front page, then throw the paper away in disgust.
Finally, the vendor asked why he did that. The man replied he was checking to see if someone died.
The vendor informed him the obituaries were in the back pages, but the man said:
When this sonofabitch dies, it will be on the front page!"

(25,048 posts)When I go to bed at night, I check the headlines to see if Trump had a heart attack on a golf course.
When I wake up in the middle of the night to pee, I open the news feed on my iPhone to see if an asteroid has landed on Merde-A-Lardo taking out the national cancer.
In the morning, the first thing I do is make coffee. Then I check the headlines to see if Melania has been arrested for murdering her POS husband.
If that makes me a bad person, let's be friends!
Enjoy your weekend, MOP!

Martin Eden
(15,623 posts)Sitting on his golden toilet texting furiously, the phone slips from his hands into the foul excrement he just deposited.
TFG stands up, turns around to retrieve his phone, and is tripped by the trou around his ankles. He falls and cracks his head against the toilet bowl, then he drowns in his own shit.
Does wishing that make me a bad person?

(2,928 posts)Farmer-Rick
(12,663 posts)If he lives to the average of a male alive today born in 1946 he will live to about 78. He's 75 now.
His digestive system is already a mess. He's incontinent in both areas and he's had some heart episodes. His obesity is not a good indicator of longevity.
His father died at 93 so let's hope he didn't get that longevity gene. He doesn't look like his father at the same age. His father never got that fat. His brother died early but most doctors put that down to drinking. Trump drinks but he doesn't seem to be an alcoholic.
NTA for those who follow that reddit thread.

Lonestarblue
(13,477 posts)would be much better off if he died. Knowing now just how sick he was with Covid, Ive also thought how much better off the country would be now if he had died from it, if for no other reason that more Republicans would have taken the virus seriously and gotten vaccinated. Even though I would like to see him punished, my faith that such punishment will happen is extremely small.
Alien Life Form
(370 posts)Trump went to a fortune teller and she told him he was going to die. He wasn't upset because everyone is going to die, until she told him he was going to die on an American holiday!
He demanded to be told what holiday.. Fourth of July???, Presidents Day?? Labor Day?
She replied..
"Any day you die will be an American Holiday!"

(16,447 posts)You shouldnt check the news to see if hes died. Thats too easy for him. You should check the news to see if he has been imprisoned!
LaMouffette
(2,640 posts)really is. I think it would take a videotape of him doing something or admitting to having done something so horrific, so disgusting that no person, not even the Pillow Guy, could stomach watching it. Something worse than the Access Hollywood recording.
This thing would be such an affront to humanity that he would be immediately imprisoned. And all of Trump's lawyers, and all of Trump's friends (if he has any), would not be able to put Trump back together again.
It would be something to see all of Trump's cult members suddenly turn against him to the point that he was not only no longer their hero, but a target of their hatred and the butt of their jokes.

Katinfl
(814 posts)My husband has said all along that this madness will not stop until tfg is gone from this earth. He would prefer that someone takes him out, I opt for natural causes. Whatever we say this is the only way to end this madness but I have to wonder if it really would end it. Is the madness so deeply embedded in the GOP that there is no end to it or what? I fear that with him gone, he will become more of a martyr than he is already. Dont know what the answer is now .but we will get a better picture of the future with the midterms. Therein lies the answer ..

(1,910 posts)A delightful holiday game for the entire family! Use an online life expectancy calculator, put in various variables about his diet, stress, lack of exercise.....and enjoy the results. See which family member can come up with the variables that have his life expectancy the shortest!
This thread is awesome. Not only are you not a bad person, you are a great person because TFG could very well not only end democracy in America, he could also give the blue print for ending it all over the world, and destroy any efforts to slow climate change.
So to wish an end to a POS who could destroy civilization, its all good.
electric_blue68
(26,856 posts)I feel a twinge of guilt.
But there are a few people who do such widespread damage that death seems the logical answer.
I really do want to see him in Prison, though. Hopefully by sometime in '23, while in '22 would be great!
Maybe if he dies before 2024, or early on in 2024 so he's out of the running.

(13,369 posts)He dies, Let him go to prison and get beat up
everyday by the prisoners he pisses off..then after a
few years of getting his shit kicked all the time,
The wardens decide to put him in solitary.. and the wardens all forget he exists..so he dies all alone of starvation and dehydration covered in his own shit..
Dying alone powerless in a cell where he must face the fact nobody gave a shit and hated his malignant narcisstic ass.

(17,576 posts)The needs of the many outweigh the needs of the few, or the one.
The world would be better off with him no longer able to create havoc and chaos. That said, its not my say as to when he goes but I would feel relief that he was no longer able to harm.
That probably makes me a bad person.

(10,922 posts)it would be welcome news when I do see it, and to be perfectly honest, I can think of a few more too! And, they are all very bad people - who have all done terrible things to our country - so I dont think it makes me a bad person to want them gone.
Takket
(23,714 posts)There is no shame in celebrating the death of a person that brings pain and misery to large masses of people. There is shame in not letting it happen naturally (i.e. murdering someone) of course. but if nature takes its course, and that course benefits humanity, that is a good thing.
applegrove
(132,207 posts)the lovely people who die, which is bad, some horrid narcissistic terror inspiring murderous people die off too. Always. Can you imagine if Gengus Khan was still around? And as for anti-aging medicine, I think people who do this in the near future will be frankisteinlike freakish hodge podge of organs and brain cells souped up on 50 meds a day after the age of 100. Nobody will follow them. At least in the near future.
