Trump dying now would be terrible for the country. If we're ever going to heal as a nation, the MAGA cult has to see this guy behind bars, and see the rest of the Republican leadership at long last disown him.

Not a chance. He'll be behind bars and they'll still suck his nuts.
So can he die behind bars then?
Can. Should.
It would be even worse if he won again and then saw no jail time.
Strong agree.
I’m concerned if he’s jailed, the nutbags will revolt and we’ll have a civil war. If he dies of natural causes, there’s a slim chance of avoiding that. The next challenge will be who the greater wack job is going to be looking to replace Trump
After watching Jan 6th, I don't think a civil war is on the horizon. Most people are too soft and comfortable. Hell, there was one lady that stormed the capitol, got maced, and then complained about it to a reporter. When she was asked why she stormed the capitol she said, "It's a revolution, man!"
Also, you can't really divide the country up geographically by left or right (more people in California voted for Trump than in almost every other state, for example). So, no, I'm not worried about a civil war.
That being said, I don't see the far-right disappearing anytime soon. There are powerful people that benefit too much by having our society divided, and it's not just in the US where this is happening.
(more people in California voted for Trump than in almost every other state
Not almost, more did than any other state. More people in California also also voted for Biden than any other state!

Nope, it's rural vs. urban.
It won't be a civil war. I think we'll see a significant increase in acts of domestic terrorism against perceived Liberals in government (assassination attempts), Liberal communities, and Liberal businesses, and Liberal media outlets. I think it will sadly become our "new normal". Oh, and if and when Trump dies of natural causes, his followers won't accept it and they'll instead believe he was killed by his political opponents. They'll never believe in a million years that he died naturally.
I never understood how this guy manages to stay alive with all the hamberders, drugs and generally unhealthy lifestyle. He's really just held together by sheer malice.
Healthcare unavailable to the general public, that's how
I never understood wishing death upon someone. Why are you wasting your wish on the one guaranteed thing in life?
Wish them an ingrown toenail or something. Would at least do something.
Checking in to remind you that physical ailments also effect those who had to deal with the issue. Trump isn't cutting his own nails, he's promising to pay someone to do it for him.
Tinnitus directly effects only those with the condition. Everyone else only feels the side-effects.
How about wishing their death is slow, painful, and soon?
I'm wishing for the timing, really.
Eventually it'll be true. How long? Who knows.
The damage he's done to this country was all that was needed from him.
