Sure, there was the attempted assassination of Reagan and the fears for Obama as the first black President, but in those cases it was a lone nutter rather than a conspiracy.
How long can Trump crash the market before an angry billionaire decides to take him out? The remaining Koch brother is already pouring money into legal challenges against Trump...
I don't want that. Trump just need help to make good decisions. Until he finds it - he should not make any decisions by himself. Use the kongress where the different parties votes. And please Trump. Don't come up with any more ideas - you have already made too many decisions.
Stupid useless post. Not happening at this point.
100% chance but mostly because i think that the plan
I've been saying this for months. How long until 47 "has a stroke."
Had some polonium tea, fell out a window, then shot himself in the back of the head.
A public assassination like Kennedy’s is meant to send a message. Trump would just have a cardiac event and never come out of the hospital. The real issue will be that he’s old and fat and eats trash, so he could have a legit health problem and die from natural causes easily at his age.
But then, President JD Vance. I don’t think anyone but Peter Thiel and Elon Musk want that. Trump sucks, but he’s the devil you know. Vance could be turboHitler or just hand the whole country to Silicon Valley. Rule by ChatGPT may be the worst of all possible worlds.
YES. This guy gets it. Nobody understands how lucky we are to have this fuckwit as president. Do you see all these actual fascists constantly up in his prostate? Trump was a proof of concept. These taint-lickers are panting to have control. Let's see how his mouth-breathing paint-eating constituency acts when this fat fuck is dead. Probably no different, but maybe.
Yeah but the difference is Trump has the magnetism and Vance doesn't? Usually when a cult leader dies the whole cult kinda fizzles out.
Tell that to the Christians. You might even say their leader dying sparked the whole thing.
There's already been like five attempts, and two of them got shots off. Eventually, someone might get lucky.
Hitler survived 30+ attempts, so don't count on it. The people running this simulation wants to watch us suffer.
I don't think it's at all likely. Trump knows he's hated, and he isn't about to go and do a parade in a convertible. More importantly, the secret service knows he's hated and know they screwed up huge in letting someone take a shot at him, so they've dialed security up to 11.
Reagan and JFK were shot at a time when they had extremely high approval ratings. It was probably harder for the secret service to stay focused and for everyone to take threats seriously when that was the case.
This isn't a Hollywood movie where a billionaire can go on the dark web and hire The Jackal or something. If they were to try to place a hit, most of The Jackals out there are probably feds posing as hitmen.
But, let's say somehow a billionaire could find people willing to make the attempt. Trying to assassinate the US president is a suicide mission. If someone tries to do it as a lone gunman, they're going up against the entire secret service. They may get the attack in, but they're almost certainly not going to get away. If it's a group of attackers, the more people, the more communications, the more communications, the more opportunities for the NSA to spot them.
And, this is one time we don't have to worry about nation-states attacking the president. The US is punching itself in the dick over and over right now. If you're someone who wants the US to fail, you just have to stand by and watch. In fact, if an enemy's surveillance of the US turned up a plan to kill Trump, they'd probably warn the secret service to make sure Trump stays in power as long as possible.
If we're being real, it's not likely at all. He's probably safer than Biden was.
Not only does the secret service impose incredibly tight security (not perfect, mind you), but Trump doesn't go anywhere except the White House and his shithole golf course.
In order to assassinate him, it would probably have to be an inside job. That seems exceptionally unlikely.
Martyrdom is an honour that Trump doesn’t deserve. If we are lucky, he will die in prison of old age.
Statistically, he'll die of poor health in the next four years. He's very unhealthy, and very old. Medicine can only do so much.
Something that will really perk up my attention is if people start shooting at his security. That will indicate anger is so ripe that even protecting him makes you a target.
