    Is it how it works in the US? Even if he dies BEFORE taking the office?

    Edit: I am not necessarily referring to Trump getting shot, his is quite old after all and may simply die of natural causes. I am curious what would legally happen in this scenario.

      If the president elect dies before they take office, their running mate is sworn in. They serve a full term that counts towards their 2 term limit.

      Doesn’t mean anything if he dies of natural causes, the party that believes in jewish space lasers will cry wolf anyway.
