It sure looks & sounds like he's been told he's got something fatal, & word's gotten out in DC. He acts like it. & the circling sharks are acting like it.

I have shared before that I make it a strict personal ethic to not celebrate, welcome, invite, or cheer at death, no matter whose death is under discussion. If these present musings manifest into that reality, I shall endure the most difficult test of that ethic I anticipate occurring in my life.
Maybe you will find this useful. Thinkers fancier than you or I have contemplated this dilemma. π Imprecatory prayer, wishing harm/death/curses on another person is not ok. Deprecatory prayer, asking God to deliver us from some evil, in whatever way God deems best, is ok. & thus, I have my path. π
Though I am an atheist, there are certainly non-supernatural analogues to prayer!
π Oh, this totally fits for a non-religious approach. I just think it's great fun contemplating that religious scholars in the past have not only wished someone [you know], but wrestled with it enough to have *terms of art* for *how* to ethically wish someone [you know]. πππ
And it's not just that One Special Boy. All of 'em are awful. Grrrrrr.....
Not celebrating, welcoming, inviting or cheering death is an honorable ethic. However, the end of the suffering (and death!) the Orange Menace has caused millions will be worthy of celebrating. I believe in karma so I believe he will get the eternity he deserves.
