This article is about three types of assassination.
The first, which President Trump has endured nonstop since he first entered the political arena, is character assassination.
The second is legal assassination, sometimes called “lawfare.” The term is appropriate, because it is derived from warfare. This is the attempt to lawlessly, but under the guise of law, bankrupt, ruin, defame and even imprison a dangerous political opponent. In extreme cases, this opponent might even face life imprisonment, which is a legal equivalent of the death penalty. (Murderers are often given the death penalty or life in prison, which some people say is a fate worse than death.)
And finally, when all else fails, there is actual assassination.
These three types of assassination are connected, and typically one leads to another.
During the English Civil War, King Charles I, who admittedly was a tyrant, was subjected to a lengthy volley of complaints and accusations. This was character assassination aimed at producing his overthrow — political assassination. Then he was tried by the Rump Parliament, but it was a bogus trial, mainly consisting of crimes that were made up solely in order to convict him. Charles was only guilty of laws passed ex post facto by the Parliament; he was then retroactively found to have violated those laws.
Finally, Charles was executed, a supposedly lawful penalty for his crimes, but since the crimes themselves were bogus, the execution amounted to an assassination.

How many more attempts will be made. How ridiculous will the FBI “political” investigations become?
This man wanted nothing more than to help his country.
For that he was rewarded evil upon evil upon evil.
30 years ago I would never have believed it possible in this country.
Same here. I don’t understand how the evil of marxism has spread.
BTTT
Assassination by neglect, indifference, under staffed, on purpose. Full plausible deniability.

Ignorance, greed and arrogance is a dangeros cocktail
I was like 18 when he was elected and let me tell you when they announced Bill Clinton won the election I told my coworker it’s just a feeling I have but I fear this is the start of the downfall of this country.
thank you Ross Perot ...

I felt the same way. - for the first time in my life, about a President.
Trump joined a rare and illustrious list of presidents or would-be presidents who faced assassination: Lincoln, Teddy Roosevelt, JFK, RFK, Reagan."
The great exception being football-concussed placeholder Gerald Ford, shot at twice. All I can figure is it was the Military-Congressional-Industrial's flying monkeys trying to clean up a Warren Commission loose end they feared might blab before dying.
This is an outstanding article by d’Souza. Thanks for posting it.
“This man wanted nothing more than to help his country.”
He wants to help US and preserve a Republic by the people for the people.
He’s up against an implacable, evil enemy who is in it only for power and personal gain. That enemy hates us and uses us as a means to their nefarious ends. They honestly don’t care if they destroy the Republic to achieve and sustain them in power for all eternity. No price is too high for them.
“I told my coworker it’s just a feeling I have but I fear this is the start of the downfall of this country.”
I told a coworker that when Carter was elected. It has accelerated with every succeeding Democrat president.
