Trump says he would prefer to die by electrocution in bizarre campaign rant
Former president and frontrunner for the 2024 Republican nomination delivered the odd remarks during a speech in Iowa

Faced with a litany of criminal charges, Donald Trump on Sunday told a campaign rally in Iowa that he would prefer to die by electrocution rather than be eaten by a shark if he ever found himself on a rapidly sinking, electrically powered boat.

The former president and frontrunner for the 2024 Republican presidential nomination delivered the bizarre remarks during a speech in the community of Ottumwa. He was pontificating over batteries for electric powered boats while recounting a conversation he claimed to have had with a boat manufacturer in South Carolina.

“If I’m sitting down and that boat is going down and I’m on top of a battery and the water starts flooding in, I’m getting concerned, but then I look 10 yards to my left and there’s a shark over there, so I have a choice of electrocution and a shark, you know what I’m going to take? Electrocution,” Trump said. “I will take electrocution every single time, do we agree?”

13. He wants a quick death over a slow one. But more to the point, he doesn't want pain.

Also, being ripped apart and eaten by a wild animal is a primal human fear.

Still, it's the pain factor that weighs heavily on his mind if his statement is actually an honest one (But, as this is Trump). He doesn't want to feel his death. He doesn't want to confront dying - he'd be awake and alert for a shark attack - he'd know it was coming, which makes it scarier.

Just because he talks about his death doesn't mean he has actually considered the possibility. Just means he'd even use that to tell one of his stories.

Not that I give a fuck either way (how he dies).
