Oh no, heโ€™s ok??

nexguy@lemmy.world · 54 pts · 101d (4 replies)

I'm nervous. What if he IS ok?

HubertManne@piefed.social · 20 pts · 101d (1 reply)

Maybe it will be so upsetting his ticker will finally give out. Stay hopeful.

I'm a little tired but it's never too late for all night celebrations. Fingers crossed.

I'm just sitting here praying for the best. ๐Ÿ™

Dang, that would suuuuuuck.

Sounds like an easy way to get out of going to a dinner where he was going to get roasted.

MousePotatoDoesStuff@lemmy.world · 5 pts · 101d

Sounds like different kinds of shots were being fired, then...

Guy deserves to die choking on a cheeseburger. Not martyred.

inari@piefed.zip · 32 pts · 101d (5 replies)

I'm trying to think of a dumber way for him to croak but I think cheeseburger choking might be the best, most perfect one

W Bush almost went out on a pretzel

My vote would be for him to fall down airplane stairs like Biden, only down instead of up.

He'll be utterly forgotten other than as a slur.

They thought Kirk would be martyred. Utterly forgotten.

He'll die on the shitter like Elvis. Befitting a king.

Only if it's after at least a few years of solitary imprisonment for his many misdeeds.

I'm hoping for locked in syndrome.

Let him experience a narcissist's hell in case there isn't a real one.

MousePotatoDoesStuff@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 100d

Looked it up, and it reminds me of I Have No Mouth And I Must Scream in the worst possible way.

It's not just a narcissist's hell, it's anyone's hell.

Tripping and falling down some stairs on live TV is my hope.

RampantParanoia2365@lemmy.world · 8 pts · 100d

Yes, but we deserve to just have him gone.

WizardofFrobozz@lemmy.ca · 7 pts · 101d

He deserves to die embarrassingly and painfully, whatever the cause

Just a thought does the white house take deliveries? Maybe there could be a go fund me page for Trump's favorite burger with more cheese and bacon

DiarrheaSommelier@lemmy.ca · 6 pts · 101d

My vote goes to "straining at stool". It's more on brand.

Zier@fedia.io · 6 pts · 101d

I was hoping he would drop dead on live tv. Is he sleeping or dead??

TrickDacy@lemmy.world · 0 pts · 101d

I will accept any form of him dying as beautiful and worthy of celebration, as long as some pain is involved. The more, the better.

He was? They didn't stop in the wide open to take a photo? That's odd.

Ya right. No courageous defianr fist held high. Just duck and scurry like rats

Wolf also said he saw the gunman with "a very scary looking gun"

And there were "scary terrifying gunshot sounds"

And that he saw the shooter but when asked to describe the shooter said he didn't see the shooter and couldn't describe the shooter.

950 they asked wolf again if he saw the gun. Wolf started speaking about random shit and kept cutting off the questions.

Yep.

Theater.

Wolf Blitzer couldn't accurately describe his own dick

I'd been thinking this might happen all day after hearing about boycotts regarding the dinner.

Davel23@fedia.io · 11 pts · 101d

I initially read the headline as "Trump Rushed Out of Dinner Amid Reports of Sharts Fired" and thought it was The Onion.

The us has not been so shaken by such a horrible news story since July 13, 2024. Stay strong my fellow citizens.

What's happening in this video? It sounds like gunfire at the very beginning but Trump doesn't hear it?

Zron@lemmy.world · 4 pts · 100d

People his age are known for being mostly deaf and unaware of things happening around them.
