      He’s more useful as an incoherent, babbling dementia patient. Even more if dead. They can just turn him into a literal puppet.

        Yes. That is exactly what I think will happen, and why – despite his “riches” or at least his property holdings – no one has tried to force him into a conservancy. It’s because his value as a demagogue is priceless, and whoever gets to control the puppet has a grand shot at winning the presidency and overthrowing democracy.
