If the laws don't apply to a president, why can't he be executed without a trial?
"Well, when the president does it, that means that it is not illegal."
Those words came out of Richard Nixon's mouth on live television. And that also happens to be Trump's belief about the presidency. The stupid shit really believes the law doesn't apply to him.
Let's take a moment off from reality and agree that the law doesn't apply to presidents or ex presidents. Well, that means that a jury of his peers can't judge him. It means that no court has authority over him. It means that the president, and the president alone, is not subject to the rule of law under which the rest of us live.
OKAY, so if he's not subject to our laws, a judge, a jury, or a presumption of innocence, then why can't he be taken out and hung without evidence, a trial, or any kind of conviction? Sounds insane, right? But if the laws don't apply to a president, someone needs to show me the error in the scenario I just laid out.
(This thread is treading on dangerous ground and may be deleted. But if you've already read it, my question still stands.)

14. Trump should never be executed without a trial, but I don't have a problem with the government
executing him first and then trying him at our convenience.
And it's not just the dregs of society over at democrat underground.
Democrat and Ranking Member of the House Weaponization Subcommittee Slips Up, Says the Quiet Part Out Loud, “Trump Needs to Be ‘Shot’
Democrat Delegate to the House of Representatives from the US Virgin Islands Stacey Plaskett appeared to make a Freudian slip during her latest appearance on MSNBC.
During her latest appearance on The Sunday Show Plaskett stated, “Having Trump not only having the codes but now having the classified information for Americans and being able to put that out and share it in his resort with anyone and everything who comes through should be terrifying to all Americans.”
Plaskett then continued, “He needs to be (shot) — Stopped.”

I would encourage the U.S. Secret Service to pay visits to the primitives Cyrano and Chainfire as well as Delegate Plaskett.

It's far from the first time.
I can still recall, among many others, an occasion in which a DUmmy wished there could be "A patriotic sniper" to kill him, and another in which DUAC head BigmanPigman openly proposed slipping poisonous mushrooms into Trump's food.

And yet, they criticize Trump for saying he could shoot someone and still be admired.

DU's been a bastion of hate since it's founding in 2001. So, yeah, another day, another DUmp of hatred.
