I don’t understand how this conversation could be taken out of context. I seems pretty clear to me what they are talking about:

Thor likened Trump to a South American dictator, or “caudillo,” and said that once elected president, the presumptive Republican nominee would all but certainly be a tyrant. He stated that in such a case, Americans would not be able to “get Trump out of office” through “legal means.”

I’m about to suggest something very bad. It is a hypothetical I’m going to ask as a thriller writer. With the feckless, spineless Congress we have, who will stand in the way of Donald Trump overstepping his constitutional authority as President? If Congress won’t remove him from office, what patriot will step up and do that. If — if he oversteps his mandate as president — his constitutional granted authority, I should say, as president. If he oversteps that, how do we get him out of office? And I don’t think there is a legal means available. I think it will be a terrible, terrible position the American people will be in to get Trump out of office, because you won’t be able to do it through Congress.

The Drudge Report linked to a story from The American Mirror interpreting this statement as a discussion of killing Trump. Beck and Gray criticized Drudge on their Facebook pages and claimed no reasonable interpretation of Thor’s words would conclude that he was implying assassination. Drudge’s headline blared “GLENN BECK, AUTHOR TALK ‘PATRIOT’ TAKING OUT TRUMP…” in red letters.

If they weren’t talking about a patriot murdering Trump to remove him from office, then why did he qualify his comment with this??

“I’m about to suggest something very bad. It is a hypothetical I’m going to ask as a thriller writer.”

Also keep in mind that the PTB are currently instructing the Congress and Senate to prepare to limit the power of the Executive Branch. This was triggered by the likelihood that Trump will be President.

This is how they should have been discussing Obama, but they were too scared.
