I think he could make a compelling argument justifying it if Trump were to win the election, a sort of Julius Caesar part deux. I think you could make the case that American democracy as we know it would end if Trump were elected president and that in order to protect democracy, his assassination was needed. However, in doing so, American democracy as we know it would still end because Biden would be opening the door to domestic political assassination being in a president’s tool belt, so it’s kind of a catch-22. We’re damned if we do, damned if we don’t. So really, the only thing that will “save” democracy is if people vote for Harris, that’s where we’re at as a country. I’d love to vote third party, I actually didn’t care much for Harris before Biden dropped out, but the stakes are really too high this election to consider anything else.
You say this as if the next Republican president won’t do this.
The best way to fix this is with Biden being the sacrificial lamb.
Basically he executes Trump via executive order, executes the conservative justices, all standing Republicans in the Senate. Then get enough states to pass referendums for a constitutional convention.
Do the overhaul of the constitution, solidifying human rights, separation of church from state, making fascism treason, make billionaires illegal, and, for kicks, universal healthcare.
The difference is that Hitler did it to solidify power within himself.
Biden would be doing it to solidify power within the People. Basically he would gain power to diffuse it. That’s why I called him the Sacrificial Lamb.
There will always be populous movements and a desire to concentrate power within the elites. But we can make it more difficult to do so.

But would he be sitting as a defendant like trump was during his shit? Or could he just ignore it and just not show up?
