If inciting an insurrection towards their own government is an action without legal repercussions, I don’t see how the law would be less lenient about straight up firing a gun at an opponent.

I by no means want any party to resolve to violent tactics. So even though I play with the thought, I really don’t want anything like it to happen. I am just curious if it’s actually the case that a sitting president has now effectively a licence to kill.

What am I missing?

    A lot of discussion on Lemmy forgets that a very large number of people actually support that Piece of Shit Donald Trump. Tens of Millions. Some of them are begging for a civil war. Killing Trump publicly would be a spark to a great flame.

      America is already doomed anyway. Trump is going to win because biden is an unlikable person and nobody really feels inspired to vote for him. and somehow Trump is more popular.

      when trump gets elected, america is going to hell in a handbasket. trump will be god-emperor until he croaks, then the next crazy in line will take over. It’s time to start preparations to abandon ship.
