There's a joke here somewhere, but you get a visit from the secret service if you say it...

I don't follow your meaning

Tim Walz will become president if Kamala is elected and later dies.

Given that she is relatively young and apparently healthy, and the US has a gun situation... the most likely cause of death would be a shooting.

Joking about killing a president gets you a serious talking to by the secret service.
