    My hope is that he has a massive stroke live on TV and then ends up wheelchair-bound unable to speak without the help of a Stephen Hawking style talk box and then deteriorates over the next few months and off to the golf course with ya Donny.

      This scenario affords an opportunity for there to be a mausoleum, and therefore a shrine. I hope he spontaneously combusts just to scare the shit out of the nat-cs.

        I think, regardless of how, or when he dies, there will be shrines and monuments built by his supporters in much the same way as a cult. I can also see it turning out like Jamestown where his supporters drink the Kool-Aid and also I can see a Dalai Lama situation where his supporters believe his soul has inhabited The body of the new leader, thus opening the doors for a wave of new grifter and liars to control the new Trump cult.

          Honestly, I think if he dies, most of his cult of personality dies with him. I bet many pull a Bush -> teabagger routine again and pretend they didn’t really like that washed-up game show host that much anyway, since he wasn’t a True Conservative ™. Remember, conservatism can never fail, it can only be failed by people improperly living up to True Conservatism ™.

          So, no matter how many blatant failures of conservatism you can point to, the cons will always have an out, such as not doing it hard enough, or that they were foiled by those nasty Democrats, uppity POC, outspoken women, devious liberals, the Deep State, or whatever other bullshit you care to name.

          They’ll still be cons, though, and they’ll seek the next hit of China White. They won’t settle for a Ronnie Raygun or a Bush, they’ll want to up the ante and have someone who “says what I’m thinking” - most especially if what is being verbalized are some of the darkest thoughts at the root of the Republican movement. So I’m thinking they will wait for an even bigger asshole than donnie and then pretend they never had all that donvict gear on their person, their car, their house…EXACTLY like they did for Dumbya.

          I hope all the younger men in the magazombie contingent are convinced to cut their own nuts off - before they breed.

          Jesus Christ that response weighed heavy in my stomach, because all 3 of your scenarios seem equally likely, and possibly even all 3 at the same time as his followers splinter like the abrahamic religions.
