“Never a good sign”: Tr*mp’s visit from the “angel of death” has everyone thinking the same thing

Reports of the Mad King’s death have been greatly exaggerated—unfortunately for us and our hanging-by-a-thread democracy. But after a surprise visit last week, talk of Tr*mp’s demise is circulating once more.

Last week, Tr*mp and fringe conservative former UK Prime Minister Liz Truss met for a color-coordinated photo op to discuss… honestly, who knows what???

“Right about everything,” tweeted the holder of the world record for shortest ever PM term (a disastrous 49 days) while posing with her evil mentor last week.

How about we take this to the next level?

“He’s been visited by Liz Truss,” reported TikToker @thechampagnesocialist. “Let us pray.”

But wait… why are we praying, exactly? We know that Tr*mp’s decaying hand has been threatening us with a good time for months now. Why would Truss’s visit imply that the end is near?

Get ready for some lore.

“A visit from Liz Truss is never a good sign,” explains the UK TikToker. “This is not the first time Liz Truss has visited a head of state.” He goes on to describe how Truss’s visit to Queen Elizabeth back in 2022 predated that monarch’s death by two days.

Coincidence? Well, yes—but it didn’t help that right after the Queen’s death, journalists quickly uncovered footage of a very young Truss advocating for the abolition of the monarchy back in the 1980s. Judging on her fangirl behavior with Tr*mp, she’s done a complete 180 on that view and no longer has any qualms with an ultra-rich minority ruling the Earth.

And, yes, I know what you’re thinking. It’s been way more than two days since this meeting, and still nothing. But the lord works in mysterious ways, people! And if there’s one thing we know about Tr*mp, it’s that he’s not going down without a fight. The grim reaper has clearly paid him several visits before only to be bought off and sent packing for another few years.

Liz Truss, on the other hand, famously had her term of relevance outlasted by a head of lettuce, prompting endless memes. “So much more than a failed political and economic experiment,” writes Zoe Williams for the Guardian, “she’s a figure of ridicule, lampooned for her shorter-than-a-lettuce shelf life by even the rightwing print media that enabled her lamentable rise.”

But even a hated figure can redeem themselves by doing just one, simple favor to the American (and British) people.

“Don’t let us down Lizzie,” wrote one hopeful commenter. “Finerly [sic] the liz reaper doing a good job,” another said, with other commenters proclaiming the conspiracy theory to be exactly the hopecore we need right now.

But wait! There’s yet another twist in this ridiculous tale. Truss isn’t the only MAGA (MABA?) freak to magically wield the power of life and death. JD Vance also made headlines after the suspicious timing of his visit to Pope Francis just last Easter. Francis died just hours later.

We know that evil does tend to make people live forever—a deal with the devil will do that. But few mortals can withstand a visit from the actual angel of death plus briefings with the loser goblin of death on the daily. Even Tr*mp has to go sometime, and we’re thinking (hoping, praying) the time is nigh.
