      The sentiment is understandable, but this won’t solve the problem, it will only makes things worse for the next time.

          But if Biden does it, Trump’s position is that it’s all fair and legal. So, let Biden order the hit and solve this issue. If SCOTUS is on board with legal assassinations, then Biden can clean that house up too.

          And it would have to be Biden that did it for it to not be illegal going by the Trump’s lawyers interpretation.
