Just from a practical standpoint, I'd put even odds on him surviving this term. The guy thinks health is based on golf and hamburgers and is my parents' age, with one of them having been in assisted living for nearly a decade.
This is more a sign of dementia (in case his rambling campaign speeches didn't clue you in) than a practical plan to retain power. He just wants to stay out of jail before he dies, which he'll likely do.
But he's no Castro. He doesn't have 40 years ahead of him, and the revolution isn't going well.
Yeah. I agree with your take on this.
