Ugh, I really don't want to feed into conspiracy. I just want to explore the ideas of the conspiracy theories to have better arguments against them. So I wonder, have people talked about that Trump could see it as a win-win either if he got killed or not? If he realizes that he is of old age and wants his ideology passed on to younger generations, becoming some kind of martyr would serve as a boost to his case, and there are many followers of him who would be ready to take his place.

I guess that the problem with disproving conspiracy theories is that once you have a good argument, another crazier theory could easily emerge. I really hope that the investigations lead to some good, hard evidence and that this could be put to rest.

He is way too much of an egoist for that

again I don't see it in trumps character. I think he will hang on to every minute of life he can eek out. I don't see him as someone who would sacrifice his actual life for some historical context.
