So... SCOTUS decides in Trump's favor, Biden has him assassinated, Biden wins election.

Trump is arguing that this will be OK, right? Right?

I wish someone would confront Trump about that during an interview. “So, do you have an armed guard, because you’re saying Biden can legally kill you?”

And then far right media would parrot for weeks that Biden actually wants to kill Trump. If they did what they did for a “stolen election” imagine what they would do if they had “reason” to suspect that Trump could be assassinated at Bidens wish

Damned if you do, damned if you don't.

That's their favorite stance. Because then they can claim moral righteousness. If you can't get an upper hand logically, the next is emotionally.

They would recognize worthy opponents

I'd be pretty surprised if there were a private security option capable of holding off the military, if the president really wanted someone dead and had the legal go-ahead.

I'd be really surprised if Trump could afford them.

Then there's the military's 'knife bomb'...

"While other versions of the Hellfire take out targets in the expected ways — through explosive force or with shrapnel — the R9X crushes or slices a target to death. It is essentially a flying bundle of swords that can kill the occupant of a car without harming people around the vehicle."

How SOCOM's secret 'knife bomb' became the prime weapon for killing hard-to-reach terrorists

You've also forgotten the easiest method - simply bribing (or in this case ordering, as the Secret Service still answers to Biden regardless of the fact that they protect Trump, AFAIK) someone close to him to kill him.

That's very hard. You have to talk to someone and convince them. Or you can just dispatch a flight and go to dinner knowing it's done

He's a broke bitch, owes half a billion in foreign loans alone. On another note, what kind of security force would be willing to suicide for him? His cult45? They have a combined IQ of an air conditioned room, the military would take them out like mowing your grass.

I'm aware. I'm not sure what exactly the secret service is going to do about a salvo of hellfire missiles. If the president of the US wants you dead and isn't legally restrained I certainly wouldn't trade places with you.

Hey, three hookers and an eight-ball will keep that USSS detail busy. No problemo.

Lol if this were legal, there isn't an armed guard, or even military on the planet that could save you from a us president with a gbu_28 on deck
