Every morning! EVERY MORNING! My first thought is, “Maybe he dropped dead while I was asleep”. Then, I look at my news feed, and sigh.

I commend you for saying the quiet part out loud. I am stumped myself. My faith tells me to love my enemies and forgive their wrongs. In more ways I pity his existence and feel sad he must have suffered some insane trauma growing up to take on this current disposition. I pray for him to see his evil ways and with that a higher power will judge him. We are too far in to have him go away without some ridiculous martyrdom. My human nature is to want him taken out of circulation. Eradicated like a cancer. After a just imprisonment. If there is a just God, and he has a plan, I can't wait to see how this ends.

It seems to be trending on TikTok lately. I have a friend who is forwarding these videos and they're quite funny. One woman was imagining being at Trader Joes when the news breaks. The store falls silent, people start to murmur, and one of the employees calmly walks up to the front and starts ringing the bell. Hilarious

That'll be the day.

I know of a pastor who prays for Trump to die peacefully in his sleep. The bonus would be of it were before he could issue blanket pardons for everyone in his administration. The downside is Vance would become president and then run as an incumbent.

That would be an improvement. Vance has the charisma of Howdy Dowdy, the following of a manotee, and the least allegiance of any MAGA. Other than Peter Theil and the Merry Widow Kirk, he is a lone wolf. He would face plant as an incumbent.

Yep. For ten years (checks calendar) ... wait -- make that eleven -- I've been wishing for a massive lightning bolt to vaporize tRump on the 18th green at Maga Lardo. The red-hat sheep of his cult would be convinced that Jesus had called him home, and the rest off us -- the sane ones -- would finally be done with him. We'd still have the MAGAts and a complicit, spineless, quisling GQP congress to deal with, but absent the gravity of tRump, they'd splinter into warring factions.

Hopefully the day we're dreaming of will come sooner than later, because I don't think our country can survive in a recognizable form if we have to endure three more years of this nightmare.

You are not alone, Jeff.

No. I wish for his death. Every. Fkg. Day.

The world will cheer when he dies.

I don't care if he dies but I want him incapacitated in the most embarrassing, humiliating way possible, a way that makes him a worldwide figure of derision. If it works out to deprive him of his wealth, that would be icing on the cake.

I used to feel that way until I thought it through some more. The Maroon Buffoon is evil, obviously. But he is also incompetent and stupid. Every day, just by being himself, he makes it more and more likely we’ll see a blue tsunami in November. When people vote Democrat in November, many of them are voting against Red Don, rather than for the Democratic candidate. Would hate for another, slightly less unpopular figure to take over and wreck that.

Now, if we’re talking Stephen Miller: that’s a whole different story. His, say, sudden disappearance into a sinkhole—or termination by any other natural, highly fatal event—would be an unalloyed good development that would be celebrated by humankind for years into the future.

Just imagine: If he'd die this summer in some mysterious death before facing any consequence for his involvement in Epstein, similar to Warren Harding's death before the Teapot Dome scandal came to light.

But fear not, I am sure trump has plans for some giant, massively gaudy mausoleum to built on the National Mall for his remains that would dwarf the Lincoln Memorial 🙄

I enjoy the fantasy of him exiting as Elvis did: bloated on the toilet struggling to expel the feces so symbolic of his essence. And, in my 76 years on the planet, there is only one other human I fantasized about dying--a boss who deliberately harmed me so badly with his misogyny and hated that he went out of his way to made my life miserable for the short time I worked for him. (Aside, Sued him and won more than $500K). OTOH, I the orange menace dying still leaves us with all the fellow citizens who support him and his unethical, evil ways. Lots of repair work needed.

I have lived long enough to note that assholes seem to live forever. But it is a nice thought.

I am hoping for an exorcism. If there was ever a doubt of demonic possession, well.

Absolutely feel the same way

Yeesh! Quiet part out loud, dude. I gotta hand it to you for honesty. I wouldn’t be sad if he departed this earth.
