I think we're thinking alike...

Nothing says "egalitarian worker's paradise" better than hereditary rulers who live as royalty and kill with a zeal that would make Lannisters blush.

Pretty sure Chuck Norris killed him though, not Trump.

See the corona was a good thing for the world. Took out KJU, some leaders in Iran and helped decrease China’s overpopulation.

I'd hit the sister.

In the biblical sense.

She's evil hot. I also think Dennis Rodman has slowly poisoned KJU with Twinkies and other American snacks over time. I expect him to pop up DOA somewhere soon.

On a more serious note, if KJU does die, or is already dead and there is no successor lined up, it's going to get bloody in the Hermit Kingdom in the power struggle.

I’ll say it again: the sister is going nowhere - she’s a zero.

Kim Pyong-il is the one to watch...

Part of me agrees with you but KJU must've had some sort of a contingency plan to transition power in the event of his death. My best guess is that he would want his sister to be in charge until his heir came of age and I assume he would've tried to secure the loyalty of key people in the regime to agree to this plan.
