I unironically like Anders as a character.
I can’t wait to see where the Q coaster goes next if trump were to somehow die from this. Granted, a lot of them still think jfk jr is alive, so Donald could just be running things from the shadows for the next 30 years.

If he does die from this, I can see Q going from the loving worst ARG to the loving weirdest ARG you could imagine. Without a daily tweet/press conference/rally to apply numerological bullshit to they'll start drawing from more random sources across time and space. The legends will say that if you find the 45 Mystic Ancient Geode Amber stones you can bring about The Storm that ends the world and replaces it with a better one. Somewhere in his last will and testament will be the codex key that only the wisest and bravest can use to decode the bible he held backwards at that DC church, and the adventure will begin.

An ostensibly fatal dose of COVID wouldn't make a bad way to fake your own death, particularly for a powerful man. Anybody could sneak out from a private suite in the isolation ward. It's easy mode.

The issue that occurs to me is that Trump absolutely could not stay out of the spotlight were he to do that. It's easy to imagine him swapping in a body double, draining his campaign fund, and loving off to a private island to eat himself to death in relative peace and safety, but unless the last forty years of his life has been some real Andy Kaufman poo poo, he couldn't stay quiet after that. He'd be tweeting, and there'd be no way to not know it was him.

How soon we forget about Barron, did you think it was creative bankruptcy that led him to name his own son after the fake name he'd use when calling tabloids? He was signaling to His Base that he already had a backup in place, just in case.

I dont think Q has actually said anything its just the "logical" conclusion for Qultists who have been told the virus is fake or at least engineered. Q has told them in the past they have the cure already so obviously trump would just get a shot and be cured.

If the coronavirus was made by the deep state, why would the deep state think Trump really had it?

Wouldn't Trump saying "I have the virus now" be the single most obvious tip-off to the deep state that he was on to them?

That's why it's so genius! The Deep State can't reveal that they know he isn't sick without admitting that the virus is just a fake thing they made up! He's completely free to act without media surveillance! Wheels within wheels!

"Is that your final dandy?"

Little did they know that Trump getting COVID is merely step one of The Plan, and he is actually going to Walter Reed to undergo a top secret procedure to be infused with a special mixture of Hydroxochloroquinine, Bleach, Vitamin D, and a piece of the True Cross. This will fuse with the COVID in his body and he will ascend to his Final Form to battle the Devil She-Lizard Hillary Clinton in single-combat.

To be fair, the mental gymnastics needed are Olympic level.

To break it down further:
Trump's announcement that he's COVID positive came at exactly 00:54 on October 2st. This has four very significant pieces of information in it:

1 - In QLandia, October is #RedOctober; which is an annual event when Trump will eventually arrest Hillary and everyone else! (Starting from 2016 and Comey's announcement)
2 - Q's 54th drop, dated Nov 2, 2017 was Jeremiah 29:11

Q's 54th Drop posted:

For I know the plans I have for you," declares the LORD, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.

Why Qanon is so excited is because if that's referencing the 54th drop, clearly the next big drop is the 55th!

Q's 55th Drop posted:

Look to Twitter:
Exactly this: "My fellow Americans, the Storm is upon us...."
God Bless.
3 - According to Q (drop 35), POTUS will be sequestered prior to the launch of "The Storm." What better way to secretly protect yourself than claiming you have a fake virus and need to be quarantined at Walter Reed?
4 - "We will get through this TOGETHER" is clearly highly secretive coding. With a galaxy brain, you can clearly read the true meaning "We will get through this To Get Her!"

I've said it before but considering this is a religious movement, off hand the best example for comparison may in some ways be the Rastafari. I know the Rastafari have some problematic angles to their beliefs, but I'm not really talking about in terms of morality or sanity or whatnot. I mean that in both cases you have new age religions springing up that have an actual living political figure = who is himself not the founder or even involved directly with the cult - as their messiah figure. And until very recently Trump's approach to the Qult was largely hands-off, much like Selassie's was to the Rastafari.

So considering that the death of Selassie seems to have not really phased the Rastas all that much and they're still doing their thing, I can't help but think that the physical death of Trump will by and large not have that big an impact on the Qult in some ways.

Trump isn't the head of the cult, though, he's their messiah figure. Again, the best historical comparison I am aware of is the relationship between Hallie Selassie and the Rastas.
Also I believe cults of personality have survived the deaths of their titular personalities, provided that some other figure is able to come in and and assume control. You see that in historical authoritarian regimes, as well as arguably stuff like the early Caliphate after Muhammad and stuff with divine right of kings and the Mandate of Heaven in Imperial China.

Most of them seem unwilling to make personal sacrifices, let alone martyr themselves. I wouldn’t worry too much about it breaking much beyond the kind of things people turn to other conspiracy theories for.

The problem of course is that we live in a time when lots of people turn to conspiracy theories and sometimes use them as an excuse to kill a bunch of people.

Did that q person who was posting about Hillary in this thread finally run off? That’s a shame. We didn’t even get to the mole children.
