Mitch McConnell's famous hand bruising was in 2020 and he's still kicking around 5 years later unfortunately. https://edition.cnn.com/2020/10/22/politics/mitch-mcconnell-bruised-hands

My dad lived with congestive heart failure, kidney disease, Alzheimers and diabetes for more than 5 years.

Trump is obviously sick and hiding it but it doesn't necessarily mean he is going to drop dead tomorrow either. Modern medicine can keep people going through a lot and Trump will have the best medical care available at his disposal.

Sorry to be a buzzkill but I probably wouldn't bet money on Trump dying in office.
