      What does he care; with his health he’ll be dead in 5 years anyways.

        People keep saying this. Sadly I just don’t think it’s true. He seems to be doing quite well for his age. His mind maybe is going a bit, but nowhere near where Biden was at, and they managed to keep him in office. This doesn’t give me hope that Trump is going anywhere soon. :(

          He’s literally demented. In contrast, Biden can actually consistently form coherent sentences.

          I think narcissism extends the lifespan of evil people, through the sheer power of the placebo effect. That sucks.
