i think it would be very fun if the president died while we're at the state fair this weekend. the state fair is about the only place i ever see MAGA people and i would get to see them crying while carrying oversized stuffed animals and eating curly fries, crying on the ferris wheel, etc

I’m going to be among my MAGA family members this weekend. These were people who were on an indescribable emotional roller coaster after the PA shooting. I want to bask in their pain. Let it roll over me like waves on a beach. I want to smirk in their faces and let them see my delight.

sorry is that wishing ill? i don't think his dying would be fun. i would have fun personally observing the public reaction to him being dead. i wouldn't see him being dead because i live 3000 miles away. thanks

v much in favor of this because I think it would be very funny to be completely unaware of it happening at a SCA-reenactor wedding in the woods

Nah, during one of his press conferences, and he makes a ridiculous face and noise as he croaks so that he goes out in a maximally embarrassing way.

what do you think the state fair would do if he died during the day? i imagine they'd at least pause the rides and ask for a moment of silence and play the star spangled banner over the intercom? do they send everybody home?

Yes, my parents were grad students in Eugene. She said everybody was shocked and crying and didn’t know what to do, so they went to the stadium—the biggest gathering place they could think of. At the State Fair, maybe the concert space?

Imagine you've managed to get yourself elected to President of the United States of America, & you STILL know full well that when you croak will be the biggest universal celebration across the entire planet, that the world has ever seen. And there's not a thing you can do about it.
