    I still hold the belief that prion disease (like CJD) is the best way for him to go. It has several advantages over getting his throat slit:

    • Someone with a slit throat will die on the spot. Someone with CJD will experience a slow and painful death over several months as they lose control of their body.
    • Trump no doubt has so much security that someone going for the throat is impossible. Prions can appear for anybody; it doesn’t matter how careful you are.
    • Related to the above, Trump would spend his last months doing everything in his power to cure himself of prion disease. But literally nothing would be able to save him.
    • And when Trump dies of prion disease, his brain could be donated to science, so that scientists can research more on how prions work. I’m sure Trump would hate that.

      Unless it’s the security who does it…

      when Trump dies of prion disease, his brain could be donated to science, so that scientists can research more on how prions work. I’m sure Trump would hate that.

      Couldn’t be donated without his consent, so no.

        Oh, you never know. I can see a conservatorship donating his brain.

          It would have to be stored in a lead box to keep the evil inside, even after death.
