    Exactly, do I think this would be good? No. Would I feel like the US has any grounds to cry foul if Iran assassinated Trump from the perspective of a US citizen? How could I? Where do I even begin to construct the accusation against Iran without it becoming immediately hypocritical…?. and this is the alarming problem with the US government.

      To be honest I think most USians would breathe a huge sigh of relief, even if it’s just quietly, in private.

      The full-bore-psychos might see him as a martyr though 😬

        The only way Trump is remembered in even a slightly positive light is if he is martyred. Killing Trump would be the best thing for Trump’s ideology one could possibly do.

        Trump alive is a constant reminder of how stupid Trumpism is, how incompetent and how violently incurious it is.
