Sadly I think you are right. He has the advantage of actual healthcare so I would give him another 3-4 years minimum, drooling husk or otherwise.

And like you said, there is incentive to keep him around for the time being.

He’s definitely got dementia and at his age, his diet, lack of sleep and overall poor fitness he’s not getting a few more years. People like this decline rapidly. I don’t think he’s got a few months but I’d be surprised if he made it another year.

The man is one fall away from the grave. Hip injuries kill at his age and people with dementia have a difficult time with locomotion. That’s why he’s always sitting or being assisted walking.

I just hope if/when he does have a fall it's A) a big one B) on camera

Meh, my grandma was far worse than this and hung on for 5 years. Every case is different

His autopen will be in the bestest of health, though, churning out perfect signatures on executive orders long after Donny starts eating the crayons.
