While I agree that fascists like him should be afraid to go out in public, that particular fascist dying would make him a martyr. He needs to live long enough to be convicted again and actually serve jail time.

That is silly because the US justice system will never ever do that, you could just as well hope to win the lottery and have better odds. The US justice system is dead, if it ever existed. His demise is a much more realistic hope.

Also they already act like he is a martyr, it won't change anything with regards to that.

Bullshit. Sick of hearing the martyr crap. Crush those who make him a martyr also.

He can die of cholesterol.

There. No martyrdom. Also it’s likely to happen.

All I have to do is put my feet up, and not call McDonalds and tell them that their food is unhealthy and they should change it.

Make him to be president for life, with a strategically deployed hamberder in the next 1000 days.
