It's a really poorly thought out idea.
Imagine how his followers would react.
Imagine how many on the left side of US politics would very likely see attempts on their lives or successfully be assassinated in revenge - AOC, Bernie, Ilhan Omar, Rashida Tlaib?? Even centrists like Kamala and Obama would be likely targets.
The damage that political assassinations cause in a democracy (even a flawed one) is far greater than the 'good' they may do in taking down a bad leader.
It'd also inspire assassinations against more fascist leaders, like Vance, Musk, and The Gathering. They're not invincible.
