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…
If it didnt happen last time, and a close yet unsuccessful attempt was made this time. My money is on, Trump lives to start harping about a third term in 2028.
If it happens, its going to be a gavrillo princip type of deal, the more planning that goes into it, the more likely the conspirators get caught simply for the amount of surveilence that goes on in this world.
if anyone is going to merk a world leader. its going to be something spur of the moment, wrong turn, wrong person, wrong time.

The way history likes to repeat, it’ll be something stupid involving a sandwich
Donny dumps wanted dunkin donuts and didn’t expect hole in his head?
Some damned foolish thing in the Balkans
a large enough mob could pull him out of mar a lago. i’m not saying it would be easy.
Have you seen the robotic dogs waundering that place?
But, you’re right, a large enough mob could break into anywhere.
true just wage an insurrection against mar a lago, lmao, it’s all legal anyway, it’s just a “protest”
/s ofc
I think by the time we hit 2026 there will be tens of millions who voted MAGA who wish that last year’s attempt would have succeeded, but logistically, it’s basically impossible now. Anything that might get Trump would probably have to be powerful enough to take out a whole crowd, and that’s just very unlikely.
It’s also debatable whether it would even be a good thing. Political assassinations always have ramifications that weren’t planned for, but on the other hand, Trump is basically a cult leader and cults always shrivel a bit when the leader passes on.

Hard disagree, Ukraine takes consumer drones and turns them into pinpoint bombers or ultra fast suicide drones.
IMO the only reason political violence hasn’t been more common is people afraid of losing what they have. But they’re soon to lose it anyway.
Except for the assassination of Abe, which was a resounding success by any measure. The perp got everything he wanted and more.
President Garfield also got merked. Mostly the fault of an RFK-grade doctor than the actual shooter, though. I hope we get that for Trump - he deserves to die at the paws of his own incompetent administration.
You have said the actual truth
I would love to see it but the real change can only come from dems sweeping midterms.
There is a whole order of succession which empowers the christofascit VP and then christofascist house speaker, christofascist senate leader, christofascist secretary of state, etc.
There is a chance the cult of personality crumbles, but also a chance he becomes a martyr.
The cult of personality won’t matter once the Christian Nationalist movement takes hold.
For the record, both of the activist Koch brothers are still alive
Those parents are a huge yikes: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Koch_family
I think they were talking about one of the 2 shitty ones dying, David Koch. Isn’t Charles the other one?
What part of the multiverse are you from, friend? https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/David_Koch
to be fair, perhaps we are not in the worst of all multiverses. I would say my heart goes out to him, but… you know.
There’s already been like five attempts, and two of them got shots off. Eventually, someone might get lucky.
If they get lucky, we all get lucky
I’m up all night to get lucky.
We rub a mexican monkey
Not sure Vance is much of a gain over Trump. How far down the chain would one have to go to find someone palatable?
All are republican except for the 12th in line which is RFK Jr listed as independent. The list goes to 18.
No idea, but I’m not opposed to finding out.
I’m in.
You don’t want Johnson taking over. He’d go all in for the Republic of Gilead, and that’s one of the few scenarios would be meaningfully worse than what’s happening now.
That’s the problem. It’s shit all the way doen.
I think things would get a bit more complicated than that, unfortunately.
Complicated, sure
But really, how much worse could it get?
He definitely wants to make himself an emperor, and with that comes real danger,
Including those who are lucky enough to live in civilised countries outside the US
'Murica exports wars, both cultural and military, to the detriment of us all
They only need to get lucky once.
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.
He’s also useful. A lot of the kinds of people who might wish to be rid of him back in the day would much rather put him to use for their own ends.
Considering how badly he is fucking up corporate and international interests, I think the parade being a JFK moment is likely. If so, I will buy a bottle of Martinelli’s and some takeout.
When the rule of law has been abandoned then frontier justice makes an appearance.
Death from “old age” is more likely.
It could have been “by snu-snu”, but Stormy Daniels failed us…
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.
We thought that when he got covid though.
Some people are kept alive through sheer meanness.
It’s said that the good die young. That orange shitstick might be nearly immortal.
And in that case, access to treatment not available to the general public yet.
I bet it wasn’t horse dewormer for him.
It’s the mean granny rule.
My hypothesis: narcissistic people live longer, because they apply the placebo effect at all times to themselves.
You could really be on to something there. It scans
It scans?! Yar, I’ll be lootin’ this here phrase, matey!
I think it’s simply due to stress. Most people care about people other than themselves. They worry about the effect of their actions on others. They worry about not living up to their potential. They worry about letting people they care about down. Narcissists by contrast get to live blissfully ignorant low stress lives. Look at Trump. That bastard has not a care in the world. In his mind, he’s already perfect. Notice how the presidency tends to rapidly age people, but it didn’t seem to affect Trump? This is why.
Yeah he’s golfing everyday
He’s stressed doing politics for an hour, so he’ll go golf for 4hrs. If anything, he’s getting younger.
I agree with your theory that narcissists live longer but I also think they suck the lives out of the people closest to them
Sooo… Narcissists are a type of vampire?
More like the Wraiths from Stargate Atlantis.
Yes, but not even the sexy kind of vampire
Keep sending him burgers and fries. Fried in lard too.
CIA with Israel killed JFK. Israel picked Trump as the most supportive of genocide. It’s fair that every other politician would still support it, though perhaps not as far as a war on Iran.
The CIA is a “US Corporatist global champion deal facilitator”. But Trump has picked loyalists at the top of intelligence and military apparatus. Unlike the past, where best people, defined as pure warmongering evil devoted, had these jobs, current batch of diaper licking appointees lose their jobs if “crazy daddy” impeached/exterminated from policy relevance.
So none of “JFK’s checks and balances” apply today. Russia war not as important as maximum zionism.
CIA with Israel killed JFK
Yeah, I’m gonna <citation needed> that claim
JFK movie, Oliver Stone, got a lot of it right, with mob cutouts including Jacob Rubenstein. The Israel motivation is the threat to force zionist supremacists to register as foreign agents, and disapproved of Israel’s nuclear program. Global peace rhethoric, and lack of full war on Cuba, Laos, Vietnam made a lot of other enemies within US.
The obvious coverup of the assassination, was not to protect a small gang of agitators where involvement would end, unless they could rat out higher ups.
Sure would be great if they released that information alongside the Epstein list… oh wait…let me check… nope, still just dangling the distraction carrot.
It’s made up bullshit with zero evidence.
He’s not going to do any more of those mass rallies so long as he can get his narcissistic supply somewhere else.
Nah he chokes on KFC
You just reminded me about when Bush almost choked to death on a pretzel.
🤞
