Could someone please take one for the team and end all this.
Thomas Crooks tried.
Why not you?
I got kids. :( also I am not very "accurate" or even knowledgable of the required implements.
There were very few attempts on Hitler's life and he directly killed millions of people. Trump will indirectly kill millions and I wouldn't be surprised if there are no more attempts on his life.
If ≥42 is 'very few', what do you consider to be a normal number of assassination attempts?
Considering what he was doing? Yes, that's very little.
634 is the current record, I believe.
69
420
They are mostly foreigners. Until the next pandemic hits, trumps cuts probably hit the world’s most impoverished, most oppressed people the hardest. It shouldn’t make a difference that they’re not Americans since people are people, but it does.
I imagine it’s the same as with hitler. It’s not just the inherent racism, but it’s harder to care as much about people the farther they are geographically or culturally or nationality.
I’m not trying to encourage this but I think it’s realistic
Assassination is not going to work. The line of succession is pretty shitty.
Ain’t no line of succession for Elon.
Too true!
we just keep the hits coming until shit makes sense again.
End? Hah, if you killed him he'd be a martyr and his successor Great Leader Vance would run a more competent fascist operation.
Vance is incompetent and slimey. Trump is only getting away with this shit because 45%ish of Americans find him sophmorically funny.
He and Elon are simply too dangerous and if America wants to continue being a country both of them need very public lessons to discourage copycats.
What if we get a 2 for 1 special?
Can we make it 3 for 1maybe? Too greedy?
Vance has an old school polotician side. If left to himself, he wouldn't go against the courts for example. He is just willing to say what trump wants him to say.
Don't be so sure about that.
Now, Vance doesn't have the iron grip on 33% of the country that Trump has, so it's possible that he'd have to be more cautious. But he's definitely not against ignoring the courts in principle.
You really shouldn't believe anything either ofvthem ssy is their actual opinion or plan. Trump will say anything to please a crowd. Vance will say anything to please trump.
Vance said this well before he became the VP.
Don't treat Vance like he's harmless. Vance is dangerous. Unlike Trump, he has something of a coherent vision, and he believes in things beyond himself. He'll be willing to violate the rule of law for the sake of ideals.
I suspect with the current state of technology, mario wouldn't necessarily need to go down with the ship. Hopefully it's a matter of time.
it's that easy. there's plenty of people offing themself all the time. i honestly don't understand what the problem here is. i guess there's not an app for that so the kids don't know how to do it.
Interesting idea. Someone in Ukraine could make an app to help make it all come true.
