Morbid thought, but trump isn't exactly built for speaking at funerals, and it could turn out very awkward.

I hope he would practice a lot in the case of such a death happening.

State of the Union address should be a doozy also.

Very high with Carter and GHWB being 92 and Clinton looking like shite.

I'm hoping trump goes full blazing during that for optimal level of liberal melting. But a funeral is a bit more...... worthy of respect .

You have some very strange thoughts sometimes.

Suffice it to say, he will end up speaking at some funeral or other solemn event at some point. I like to think he and his advisors can figure it out.

Possibly two with Bush 1 and Carter. Maybe even a third with how bad Bill had looked.

I'd say greater than 50% chance

Sadly, it's highly likely. HW isn't looking good these days

Carter - probable?
Bush I - maybe?
Clinton - maybe. He looks like death
Obama - black smokers don't live very long. Just stats
8 years is a while

The state of the union does not have to be read, it can be handed in in written form (Carter did this).

Odds are heavy that neither Bush 41 nor Carter make it 4 yrs.

Trump will do fine.

With all of the possibilities for things to go wrong, this is something that worries you?

Bush 41 and Carter will not be alive past 2020.

Clinton is the wild card considering he looked like shite during the campaign with all that coke and hookers catching up to him.

Bush 43 has 15 years left minimum in him and he's always been in good shape and one of the most athletic presidents ever.

Trump has done morbid and solemn speeches before. He'll be just fine.

Well, the possibilities are

A) GHWB dies of old age in the next four years (40%)
B) WJC loses his Obamacare and dies of an STD (30%)
C) GWB mindlessly walks in front of a bus (90%)
D) BHO becomes one of the 800,000 shooting victims in Chicago over the next four years (50%)

To get the odds of at least one of those happening, you just multiply the probabilities against and subtract from 100%.

Of course, in most cases, you'd also have to factor in the possibility that someone would shoot him before his term ends and before any of those occur. But in this case, that chance is negligible because

A) no ally would kill a sitting president,
B) no enemy would want to kill this one,
C) no sane American would want Pence and
D) every insane American loves Trump.

They showed daddy Bush for the Houston/Oakland game and my money says he would be next to go. The chances are good it'll be within the next 4 years. Carter will probably be behind him ,but will most likely make it another 4 years.

Between Carter and Bush Sr., it's probably pretty certain.

And then with poor Bill in the state he's in, there may even be three.

I agree with your analyses. I don't really care about the first two, but Trump would never deserve to be allowed to speak at Clinton's funeral.

100%. HW and Carter will both perish during this next term. Hopefully both Clintons join them.

Carter has been diagnosed with brain cancer. Very difficult to survive 4 years with that diagnosis.

Bush Sr. has already whipped the Grim Reaper's arse a couple of times in head to head match-ups. The Reaper is training hard for another run at him.

Bill Clinton either dies from a heart attack while banging some 13 year old on one of his pedophile buddy's private islands or jets, or Hillary has him whacked so that she and Huma Abedin can come out of the closet and be life partners.

Bush II is in great shape and it is discovered he has found the key to immortality is to drink one quart of liberal tears per day.

After he leaves office it will be revealed that during his days of hanging in Chicago's gay bath houses the Kenyan Idiot took several AIDS injections straight up his arse. He becomes the first and last former US President to die from AIDS.

Trump has himself cloned and the legend lives on.
