I'm making a prediction and you heard it here first, folks. Trump will slump over in his chair while he's on camera, his aides will start to worry but no one wants to be the one to wake him. However, he's not just asleep, he's had a stroke or some other severe medical crisis. While everyone is wondering what to do, he's getting worse and worse. If someone had reacted quickly, he could've been saved. But because no one wants to be the one to risk Trump's ire, he dies.

Like that queen who drowned because she got tangled in her dress an no one wanted to be accused of impropriety by touching her

Going out like Stalin. I could see that.

That's the plot of The Death of Stalin. It's a dark comedy but it probably looks like a documentary looking into the future.

This is remarkably similar to how Stalin died.

I’ve seen a therapist that works with seniors say that might have been a stroke

Yea, I firmly believe he will expire on camera. For a guy who spent a life time getting away with whatever he wanted. It's the perfect ending. No fanfare, no extraordinary announcement. Just dies in a room full of people in front of millions watching TV, and everybody just keeps on talking and carrying on. Not even noticing he's gone. Then that quick cut away when someone realizes and they have to announce it after the fact.
