Actor Dick Van Dyke, who turns 99 next month, suggested he would happily not be around to see the next four years under President-elect Donald Trump’s second term in the White House.
While some celebrities threaten to leave the United States in response to the 2024 presidential election results, Van Dyke’s Trump Derangement Syndrome (TDS) has taken an even more radical turn, with the actor saying he is grateful he won’t be alive to experience the 45th president’s second term.
“Fortunately, I won’t be around to experience the four years,” the Mary Poppins star said in response to a reporter who asked, “Do you think Donald Trump is capable of making America great again?” according to a report by Daily Mail.
After being asked, “Does the future look bright for America?” Van Dyke replied, “I hope you’re right,” while his wife reacted by saying, “Oh man.”
Notably, the actor endorsed Vice President Kamala Harris in an Election Eve Instagram post in which he bizarrely likened the 2024 election and today’s political climate to the U.S. Civil Rights Movement by reading a speech he had originally delivered at an event with Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. on May 31, 1964. …

These people’s opinions have been rendered IRRELEVANT by the majority of the American people.
Does he have a garage with a door that closes? Does he have a car in the garage? Does the car have gas in the tank? Does he have a key to the ignition?
Yes? It’s not hard to die if you seriously want to. Oh, Rob. Quit whining and kill yourself already.
Watch: Trump Suggests He’d Rather Die Than See Another Four Years of Dick Van Dyke
I hope Trump doesn’t do anything like that. Suddenly, Dick will become the browbeaten victim. You were probably joking, but Trump can be quite unpredictable.
then die ya sob...

Dick Van Dyke’s terms are acceptable.
At 98, sadly, his wish may come true. It takes a lifetime to build a reputation and only a moment to lose it. Let’s attribute it to old age and dementia and move be on. I’d rather remember him as (I thought) he was.

True. He is (was) an entertainer and he did that role well.
His political belief do not matter to me.
Get on with it, DICK.

Seems like God will grant his wish sooner than later.
I’m sure he owns a pistol, so there’s that.
The only comment my dad made about living through the civil rights movement was “where MLK went,riots followed”.
Does he not have anything better to do at his age than rail against politicians? He would do better to enjoy his last years in peace. Trump’s presidency will affect his life not at all, except perhaps to increase the value of his investments and lower some of his bills.
We don’t want to see four more years of lawfare and attempts by the left to break him either, Dick...You might really like him if given a chance to govern without a war against him..
Move to Canada.
I honestly didn’t have a clue he WAS still alive. I remember him being on variety shows and such when I was a kid in the late 70’s/early 80’s and I thought he was old then (well I guess he would have been around 50 (old for a kid). But I figured he died decades ago, last time I remember seeing him do anything on TV was probably in the late 1980’s.
Even as a kid, I never liked the homo.
How many Disney movie did he do? He’s probably a pedo.
Your terms are acceptable, Dick.
Are any Republican parents out there still immersing their children in Hollywood’s movies and values?
