That’s an interesting definition. I’ve always thought of terrorism being defined because of its randomness. Last Wednesday, Republican HOR members were specific targets. That’s assassination.
Sorry, but randomness is not necessary to be an act of terrorism. It can be a directed attack against a specific target or targets. In this case it appears it was directed against the GOP members of Congress. Trump was also mentioned by him as a traitor who needed to be destroyed along with his supporters.

Assassination and terrorism are not mutually exclusive.
