Joe Biden passed up his chance to assassinate Donald Trump and get away with it.
Instead, the two presidents smiled and shook hands — the perfect photo op — before engaging in a 90-minute discussion.
The Supreme Court ruling in Trump v. United States that granted U.S. presidents immunity for their actions while in office would have also applied to President Biden. As Justice Sonia Sotomayor noted, a president could order “the Navy’s Seal Team 6 to assassinate a political rival” and be immune. This ruling makes every U.S. president “a king above the law.”
Biden missed his opportunity to save America from itself.
Many would have considered Biden’s elimination of Trump a gift to America and to humanity. Sure, it would have tainted Biden’s legacy among some citizens and historians, while others would have applauded the action and considered him a hero. It would have also saved Biden from Donald Trump’s promised retribution. At his June 13, 2023, rally, Trump promised to “appoint a real special prosecutor to go after the most corrupt president in the history of the United States of America, Joe Biden, and the entire Biden crime family.”
It leads folks to wonder if Trump promised Biden not to attack him and his family in exchange for the “smooth transition of power” that Biden promised.
While it is certain that the assassination of Donald Trump would not have extinguished the cult of Trump — it would have made Trump a martyr — or eliminate the wannabes waiting in the wings for their chance to succeed Trump, it would have at least rid the nation of the dangerous, narcissistic, megalomaniac that is Donald Trump.
