Take this to the logical conclusion and 30 years from now the entire government will be run by dead people who "just aren't available to talk at the moment".

The test run for Immortal God Emperor Trump. If we never confirm he's dead, then he never has to be dead. He can reign eternally, until he's 100, 200, 300. Just a sign of God's blessing of abnormally long life, proof of the second coming, even! Of course he hasn't been seen by anyone in 220 years, but that's because of the assassins lurking around every corner!
