Trump's COVID condition was much more serious than he let on. What if, for some reason, he's either given a false negative test or just refuses to be treated and stays in denial about COVID, and dies at around October 3, 2020. Mike Pence assumes the presidency per the constitution and is the first Vice President to fill out a president's term since Gerald Ford.
How drastically would the campaign change? Who would Pence appoint as Vice President? Would Biden still win the election? How bad would the conspiracy theories get about Trump? I could definitely see QAnon circles saying that Trump was assassinated/poisoned and that the ""deep state"" put Pence in charge. At the same time, anti-Trump Republicans may be more willing to vote for Mike Pence than for Donald Trump.
