    him dying would’ve turned him into a martyr and basically solidified him as a saint, if not a god, to the maga crowd. I can imagine the repercussions of that. there’s also the possibility that someone worse replaces him, someone just as fascist and selfish but twice as competent, and that would be disastrous. y’know, the whole “guys I went back in time and killed Hitler” trope/joke.

        others have made a terrifying point that his death could incite another instruction like Jan 6.

          Which biden would be prepared to deal with. Keep in mind that Trump was in office for Jan 6. One might even consider that a good thing, as this time with a competent president there would be less victims, and more insurrectionists getting their voting rights taken away.

            ¿Biden competent? He’s probably gonna die of old age by Jan 5, and if not, is going to be ordering who knows what crap with his dementia on Jan 6…

                Don’t engage, just mark him as a right wing troll with a user note so you can remember not to engage with him.

                I’ll give you one (1) pity point for jumping right to the low hanging tree category for personal attack.

      I’m pretty sure that’s already true, but I see your point overall.

        A lot of them already called him “the God Emperor”, so…
