People are demanding odds to bet on Donald Trump being assassinated

Should someone make a profit by betting on someone’s death, that person should be tried as an accomplice. It would be the same as paying someone to make a hit so they could realize a financial gain.

Has there ever been anyone but a leftist that has assassinated a political leader?

[stars & stripes forever]

Amen.

ISAIAH 54:17
But in that coming day no weapon turned against you will succeed. You will silence every voice raised up to accuse you. These benefits are enjoyed by the servants of the Lord; their vindication will come from me.I, the Lord, have spoken!

[TalBlack]

The Left had better pray it doesn’t happen. If it does then afterwards I personally won’t be tolorating them or their shit anymore. I’ll do as I damn well please.

[Terry Mross]

On the the day he was sworn in I said “I feel closer to God, actually I feel like God is closer to U.S., since 1980.

I recall years ago there being much discussion about the prospects of an anonymous betting pool focused on assassinations, as a way of persuading hit men to take jobs.

Assassination Marketplace

"An assassination market is a prediction market where any party can place a bet (using anonymous electronic money and pseudonymous remailers) on the date of death of a given individual, and collect a payoff if they "guess" the date accurately. This would incentivise assassination of individuals because the assassin, knowing when the action would take place, could profit by making an accurate bet on the time of the subject's death. Because the payoff is for accurately picking the date rather than performing the action of the assassin, it is substantially more difficult to assign criminal liability for the assassination."

SorozNazi and the rest of the anti-American extreme left will, I fear, do this if they get a chance. Please pray that DJT is careful

Pussycats attacking wolves? Really?

Odds that someone will try assassinating Trump: 100%. Odds that someone will succeed: 0.

Odds that the Democrats will submit articles of impeachment at least ten times in the next four years: 100%. Odds that the House will vote yea on them: 0.

Odds that lawsuits will be filed every day of the Trump administration against either Trump or actions of the administration: 100%. Odds of them causing Trump to curtail his agenda: 0.

Aren’t they supposed to against using guns?

If I were Trump, I would keep the public appearances to a minimum until he can accomplish (or at least set into motion) a good bit of what he has planned. I don't think there is any question that an attempt will be made on his life given how already over-the-top the Left has been since Nov. 9th. They are just creating the atmosphere for something like this to happen, probably on purpose.

[ctdonath2]

Yup, that’s it. I remember the flurry of discussion about it in the mid ‘90s.

[YogicCowboy]

If Trump were to be impeached, then it would be the doing of the treacherous Uni-Party RINOs.

[YogicCowboy]

Yes, they always do what they accuse.

[Garth Tater]

It’s still being discussed and has been considerably refined. Don’t believe the Wikipedia link’s mention of TOR as being capable of securing your anonymity. It’s not.

We pray this over President Trump. No weapon formed against you shall prosper and every tongue that rises up against you shall be condemned.
