This comment made me realize that when Trump passes there will 100% be a conspiracy about it, no matter the cause.

For the average American man who is Trump's age (77) the chance of dying in that same year is about 5%, according to the Social Security Administration's Actuarial Life Table.

This is a stat which only goes in one direction - up - over time. It's at 6.5% at 80, 18% at 90, and a sobering 38% at 100.

Show me a centenarian who felt giddily immortal before learning her chances to die. :)
