          I work in a hospital. I’ve seen patients that have had full signs of life, nothing indicating that they might die within the next 12 hours, but guess what? When I came in for my next shift? Boom. Dead. It’s the weirdest thing. And alternatively, patients who look like death can cling on to life for months and months and months.

          His motor mouth doesn’t stop running but he’s hardly a picture of health and he’s getting on in years.

      Exactly. That ruling is symbolic. They’ll just put someone in place that still carries out his wishes.

          It’s naive to think that if the businesses are allowed to continue, and they continue to bear his name, that he won’t maintain some form of control. The man may be stupid in a lot of ways, but he and his allies are perfectly capable of getting the right people into the right positions to do his bidding - and that presumes that those people aren’t already in place.
