In October 1964, Nikita Khrushchev went on vacation at his dacha on the Black Sea and was booted from office as the Secretary General of the Politburo while he was gone. In October 1982, Khrushchev's successor Leonid Brezhnev, whose health had been deteriorating for some time, died of a heart attack. Since we are replaying the 1960s in a time rhyme, we should expect to see Joe pass away in the near future to keep up with the JFK rhyme, the 1968 DNC rhyme, and the Nixon rhyme. We are not in unprecedented times, but we are certainly in a rare moment of maximum uncertainty.
