I apologize for the absolutely horrible headline, but the deleted posts are worth it.

      I’m afraid he would become a martyr for these MAGA crazies.

      Better for him to live long enough to be destroyed politically when all his deeds catch up to him (hopefully).

    If it was a hack to begin with. Could just be some publicity stunt or him being drunk and coked out of his mind.

    These people love fabricating outrage.

    Trump is old, thinks exercise is bad because it runs down your body’s battery, and eats fast food. I would not be surprised if Trump died.

      Something tells me he wouldn’t even fake his own death. He just had to lie about the date so that nothing about him is true his entire life.

      It would make sense for him to die right before being prosecuted because they will just let the whole damn thing fizzle out without passing judgment if he dies.

        I imagine him boasting to multiple people about how smart his death-faking plan is, saying on tape what he plans to do after he fakes his death, etc.

        But then no-one involved knows what live bullets or blanks look like and he dies trying to work out who to fire for killing himself.

    This makes me wonder if team Trump isn’t preemptively muddying the waters for pending news of Trump’s inevitable death. I wonder if Trump got a prognosis recently and this is just a type of staw poll taken about how ready and willing the GOP would accept a replacement name on the ticket.

        Both Occam’s and Hanlon’s razor agree on this one, it was almost certainly just a hack. Bet Don Jr. had a password like Trump2024 or something equally dumb, or he got his account phished, he doesn’t strike me as the sharpest tool in the shed.

          And to add to matters, Musk has fired so much staff that I bet that Twitter’s security has suffered. If your staff can barely keep the servers running while implementing the latest “cool new feature” that the boss insisted be made immediately and pushed live with zero testing, they’re not going to be focused on maintaining server and application security.

            I doubt it’s a flaw in Twitter’s security, if it was it would be more than just 1 account posting dumb content (well, dumber content than normal). There’s also the fact that that particular code was probably done and battle tested ages ago, so unless someone went in and screwed with it it should keep working more or less fine and I don’t think any of Muskrats recent changes would have touched the auth sections of the code. If this was like a DoS or the site was down or something then I’d bet it was some security flaw that was introduced, but this doesn’t smell like E.G. a SQL injection or anything like that.
