Trump has been called a super ager by some people. That means despite a highly unhealthy lifestyle he has managed to remain active and functional despite all else.

Don't think he could just drop dead tomorrow. While I am sure millions of people would like it if he died suddenly of a heart attack or stroke, that probably isn't going to happen. Kissenger lived to be 100 despite not being much of a healthy looking guy for decades, and his slurring speech patterns were widely mocked as early as the 90s. I am not sure if anyone who wrote his Freakazoid appearance in the 90s ever thought he would live as long as he did.

What I am ultimately saying is that he might make it to 90 and still keep going.

Please, this isn't the kind of information I wanted today. I eat one mcdouble and feel cardiac arrest behind me and this guy can eat them on the daily

I am very sorry about that, and it fucking sucks. Although one thing I find funny (in a bitter manner) is how Alex Jones once said that the elites of the world don't eat the same food as we do on a fundamental level. He was invoking a Stalinesque form of paranoia (Stalin really did have special farms for him personally that were staffed entirely by NKVD members), but what Trump is doing should have fundamentally laid that to rest. He is a garbage eater but still survives. Inactive, and with a foul temper that would have raised anyone's blood pressure levels to dangerous levels but he still just lives.
