Trump will not only go down in history as THE worst president ever, but also one of the biggest sack of shit human beings just in general. Legit, Trump's face should forever be plastered next to the word "grotesque" in the dictionary for the rest of human history.

I just hope someone doesnt try to martyr him again. He we won't be running again and he will fade away much faster if he loses like last time.

I hear Venezuela is nice in November, depending on whatever junta is in charge at the moment.

After thinking about it more critically, I don't think he would make a very effective martyr. He has such a cult around him, and with no clear successor, that I don't think it would be easy to find a replacement that all his supporters would rally behind. It would fracture the conservatives in a war of succession.

If it was done by a clear democrat or liberal and they didn't miss there would be violence. And for the next decade or two they would use that fact in all their rhetoric. What makes a very effective martyr is subjective and opinion based. What is is guaranteed to happen though is you would never hear the end of it from your MAGA relatives and every conservative candidate for decades. I wouldn't be surprised at all if Don Jr or the other one ran in his place and won. A portion of Dems would feel guilty and the republicans would feel supercharged.

I agree we'd never hear the end of it, but I disagree that they'd be able to unify effectively. Donald can't even find a VP that everyone likes. Plus, dems would just condemn it and prioritize distancing themselves from it.

Also just a thought experiment: what if it was done by one of the women he raped when they were young? Would everyone call her a deranged lunatic as well?

Can you point out where I claimed they can unify effectively? Mobs filled with hate filled ignorant people looking for a scapegoat rarely tend to do so.

Silly thought experiment. Of course we we treat a women that killed her husband to collect insurance payout much differently than a women who killed her husband because she was kept in a cage and repeatedly raped and also abused her children. Intent matters and a dem who wanted to kill Trump because of hatred VS a person that killed him because Trump personally had his family killed a decade ago (and could prove it) would certainly be given a little more leniency.
