So what happens if Trump dies? January 3, 2017 11:46 am hank

Hey, don’t get me wrong. I hope he lives forever, a suspicious death will only make a martyr out of him, his followers will promptly call it an assassination and a Left Wing conspiracy. They will want vengeance. Besides, I think the best medicine for his policies is that they actually be implemented by him, and fail on his watch.

Trump is a man in his seventies, he could go from natural causes, at any time with no warning. And no matter how much his death can be shown to be from natural causes, you know his partisans will use it as an excuse to start rounding up liberals. I’m sure his departure will start a power struggle on the Right over who assumes the Iron Throne. Yeah, I know we have a proper VP, but in the tsunami of self-righteous indignation and finger-pointing that will follow a Trump demise there is certain to be a cat fight in the shards of the GOP. A postTrumpian interregnum. The Cruz’s will start coming out of the woodwork.

And I’m not joking about “rounding up Liberals”. Remember the Reichstag fire?
