    I don’t see him lasting his full term. Dude’s old, is incredibly unhealthy, and has enough power-mad people around him that the first sign of weakness will probably be enough for medical intervention and Vance becoming president. Becoming president AGAIN at his age is possibly the dumbest thing he can do for his health.

      Sadly his Klan loving father lived to 93, and being POTUS is like having a dedicated one person ER following you around.

      Also, the office only ages you if you’re committed to performing the job, Trump uses the office to troll the people he can troll and, more urgently, personally profit for anyone that offers him or his businesses a bribe in exchange for a Presidential act. He doesn’t work even in business, he issues broad, pie in the sky dictates and encourages his own employees infighting about the details. He’s bragged about this.

      Trump was the first President in my lifetime to accelerate the aging of those he governed rather than himself. Like so many other things people seem to forget, he spent a lot of his first term golfing.

      Not that I’m complaining on that point, golf motherfucker! Do less!

      This is something I don’t think they even acknowledge or think about. Some of their shit in comparing him to Hitler (and they do that in a positive manner) is when they claim that some of the shit that is happening to him is like him being imprisoned after the Beer Hall Putsch (referring to Jan 6th). This is stupid. Hitler was barely in his early 30s at the time and he was actually at the START of his political career. Trump was never imprisoned and when he did his shit he already had very real political power that Hitler never had in 1923.

      Trump the oldest presidential nominee ever and I hope that he will stay the oldest. We don’t need that kind of geriatic shit in any political office anywhere.
