How can you wish a death on a human being? How much of a POS can you actually be?!
Not who you're replying to but its very easy to wish death (or the sudden thanos-ing) of objectively evil people.
Don't believe Trump is objectively evil? Here's what the man stands for and its not even a comprehensive list.

Trump appointed his unqualified family to top administration roles [46] [47]. Trump withheld aid to Ukraine unless they found dirt on Joe Biden and his son [48].

Trump lied by falsely accusing Obama of spying on the Trump campaign [63]. Trump cut pandemic early warning program which likely made the pandemic worse when it broke out 3 months later [64] [65]. Trump cut corporate taxes to lowest rate since 1939, giving the mega rich a break while continuing to take from the poor - like a reverse robin hood! [66] [67]. Trump had protestors sprayed with tear gas so he could attend a photo op and take a picture with an upside down bible. [68].

Username checks out... Damn...
You're objectively evil. Not reading past your first paragraph as it already makes every source after that irrelevant.
You feel really smart adding references and sources to your deathwish right? I hope you realize how ironic that looks.
Typical Trump apologist mentality, projecting their own views and not backing up their claims.
Cheers! 🍻 Stay ignorant.
Just trying to help others educate themselves on the facts, but there's only so much you can do when people are willing to stay ignorant 🤓
EDIT: I should add - please, at the very least, read up on the paradox of tolerance. Your ignorance only helps the enemy.
What are you even talking about? None of that is related to your deathwish. Why are you trying to educate people about facts? I already know all of that stuff. What are you trying to say? Trying to justify your deathwish? What's your problem?
A pissed off POS, fuck Donald Trump.
Right. I'm also all for anarchy. Let's storm the capitol and kill everyone we don't like. Sounds familiar? Well. Maybe you're not much better than him wantinf him dead.
He's a rapist, a felon, and countless other things. I AM BETTER THAN HIM.
No you're not. Because you wish him dead.
I am, because he very well might get the power to make changes that would cause my death. My wants are nothing compared to his deeds.
Jesus. Do you hear yourself speak? And for some reason, I bet that if somebody were to assasinate Biden you'd highly condemn that... Becausd you condone political violence but only if it's convenient.
Your words are not less a testimony of the failing democracy in the US than Trump is as a person. And reading this thread and others, you're not the only one. I'm glad I don't live in that country. From an outside perspective, it's easily the worst political landscape to live in and the worst democracy of every democracy on this planet right now. Man, just get your shit together and start talking about actual politics and less about killing your political opponents.
It's a fucking joke at this point. It's such a joke that me and my buddies made a screening of the presidential debate with some beer and watched it like a soccer match, laughing. No politics is more entertaining than the USA. And the sad part about it is that you guys actually seem to take this shit serious.
Don't care, fuck Trump and fuck you too.
I'm just gonna watch you seeth and spitting out deathwishes from a safe distance. Waiting for the US civil war. Gotta be very soon. No other country is this unstable.
