Assassinating Trump is Justified

More and more, Americans are considering killing Trump, Musk, and Vance. In a poll, almost a third of Americans said killing Musk and almost half said killing Trump was at least "somewhat justified." Why?

Musk is firing thousands of people, destroying programs, and lying about it- inflating the savings by a factor of ten or more. While Congress is responsible for the budget, Musk is overriding their power while crippling government's ability to regulate his businesses and helping Trump carry out his promise to be a dictator.

Trump not only sold Musk the power to destroy America for $400 million, he's also tanking the stock market and stoking inflation with his brain-dead tariffs. Meanwhile, he's following the Project 2025 plan he denied knowledge of and seems committed to his promises to enrich billionaires with tax cuts and end democratic elections.

Part of Trump's deal with Musk and others was to give the VP position to Vance, who's a follower of a philosophy to end democracy called Dark Enlightenment, but the poll didn't ask about killing Vance.

More and more, America see Trump as a Hitler wanna-be. Trump's pardoning of the January 6th insurgents was done to embolden militant groups to form Trump's militia. They fully expect if Trump gives them permission to kill and loot, he'll give them a blanket pardon for that, too. It's a common belief that had anyone assassinated Hitler, they would be a hero of epic proportion.

While Trump supporters call assassinating Trump "glorifying political violence," Trump's opposition say it's actually patriotism. Trump has been a faithful supporter of Putin and Russia, America's most active enemy. so assassination of them is actually defending our freedoms. Adding to this, Trump is a convicted felon, and many believe Trump is sexist, racist, a rapist, and was an active pedophile and close friend of

Murder is seen as justified when defending one's country or fighting an enemy. With his track record of lying 70% of the time, and his being the only politician to have a full Wikipedia article about his lying, Trump has positioned himself as the enemy of truth, the foundation of morality, without which civilization is impossible. One paper concluded, "Trump’s dishonesty has the unprecedented effect of undermining core democratic institutions and threatening the legitimacy of the American government."

To be fair, only 4-6% of these people are saying Trump's assassination is completely justified. Note that the poll did not ask how many would favor the next president pardoning such assassins, nor if they would consider them to be heroes.
