Trump is a threat to the constitution. The president has an obligation to protect it.
I do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will faithfully execute the Office of President of the United States, and will to the best of my Ability, preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States.
Ergo, shooting Trump in the face would be a core power of the president.
I don’t disagree but the court of public opinion would. And doing this would give grounds for the next president that comes along like Trump to just shoot their political opponents.
If the next opponent straight up said they’d be dictator on day one, and people wouldn’t need to vote ever again, after leading a violent insurrection attempt, I’d fully support them being executed for sedition and treason.
The point is there’s not going to be another opponent, and that’s what Biden needs to stop.
I would too. But the majority of voters seem to think Trump was just joking when he said those things. And the voters get to decide what politicians get away with.
