I genuinely loathe this man with every fiber of my being. The greatest xmas present I could ever get would be to read his obituary.

WASHINGTON—President Donald Trump died tonight at the age of 79 after suffering a stroke, the White House announced in a statement. While having dinner with his family, a White House staffer noticed Trump suddenly began slurring his speech before collapsing on the ground. The president was rushed by ambulance to nearby George Washington University Hospital, where despite emergency treatment, he was pronounced dead. The time of death was recorded as 11:57 PM. J.D. Vance was notified of the president's demise shortly thereafter and was immediately administered the oath of office. In a statement posted to X, formerly Twitter, President Vance stated:
It is with great sorrow and a heavy heart that I announce the passing of President Donald J. Trump tonight. President Trump was a gallant and brave warrior who fought for the American people and the MAGA movement until his last breath. Today, I step into the enormous shoes left by the late President and gave an oath to defend and uphold the principles of our Nation as your next President. I swear to serve faithfully the American people as did President Trump. I will pray for President Trump, and our hearts go out to his family in this difficult time. Thank you, and may God bless our beautiful nation.
President Vance further announced that a state funeral would be held with full military honors for Trump in the coming weeks, with details to be announced. Flags were ordered to be lowered to half-mast until January as the nation enters a period of national mourning. Mourners will have the opportunity to view Trump's coffin in the Capitol Rotunda, with ticket sales expected to begin Monday.
News of the Trump's death comes as his approval ratings hit their lowest point yet, with 54% of Americans disapproving of his performance, according to a recently-released YouGov poll. Immediately after news of his passing broke, spontaneous demonstrations erupted in several major cities, with cheering residents filling the streets of New York and Chicago in a jubilant atmosphere amid chants of "The fascist is dead!".
President Vance strongly condemned the celebrations in a post on X, stating the gatherings show "a complete lack of respect to the family of President Trump, regardless of what you thought of his America First policies." Vance has called for order to be restored and has threatened to re-deploy the National Guard to halt the celebrations.
Congress will meet in emergency session tomorrow to discuss the implications of President Trump's passing. President Vance is expected to address the nation during a joint sitting of the Senate and the House of Representatives tomorrow.
The only terrible part is "President Vance" 🤮
And if Vance goes, it is fucking President Johnson. Just shit all the way down.
