How about the same fate that befell Bambi’s mother?

I’m going with “Dragged into hell by damned souls,” as befell Dr. Facilier at the end of _The Princess and the Frog_. Most of the other Disney villains, we can _assume_ they spend eternity tormented in Hell, but Facilier is the only one where it’s on-screen canon.

Those are good, as are the suggestions from @OttoDaFe, @WOOKINPANUBv.2 , and @Miller

But then Disney never really offers any villain-outcomes that could be appropriate for Stephen Miller. For that, we must turn to the cinematic imaginations of Ari Aster, Eli Roth, or the various directors of the _Final Destination_ films.

Now you’re talking. Anyone have a bear skin they can donate?

How about a gorilla suit? I’m referring to the classic _Trading Places_, of course…

That would be satisfying as it carries little implication of actual death. Just the rendered-justice of a number of moments of fear and pain, which SM has surely earned.

**Moderating:**

I let the first few posts on the the whole “Disney Death for Trump/Miller” sidetrack pass, but it’s been the exclusive topic of last ten posts now. It’s more suited to either a very Dark Cafe society thread or the Pit, not P&E. No more posting on the subject in this thread. If one of you fine folks wants to open a new, forum appropriate thread, I’ll move these posts there if you like.
