Trump might be crazy, however anyone that is hoping for an assassination is far more damaged then he could ever be.
Besides that, lets say that Trump is killed and Pence has to take over, the clamp down on civil rights in the name of security would be unbelievable.
I dunno. I mean, if you assume Trumps policies are going to get thousands, or hundreds of thousands killed, wouldn't it logically make more sense to wish for him to die over others?

No. When you assume you make an ass out of you and me. If he actually implements some death policy then that is a different story. Do you think Duterte of the Philippines should be killed? He has watched over the slaughter of thousands of his own people.

Nope, the whole needs of the many outweigh the needs of the one.
Or the death of one man could save billions.
Or if we would have taken out hitler we could have prevented the holocaust, are fundamentally un true.
You would hope that the rule of law, and the inherent checks and balances in any political system would eventually create conditions for a removal from power.
Killing Trump doesn't change anything, it puts a possibly more dangerous man in power with an excuse to completely clamp down in the name of security. If there's a removal from power in a democracy it has to be done legally, not on the whim of a man with a gun, or missile launcher or chemical weapon
Just my two cents.

I think that we're seeing a major split in the Republican Party that's suddenly becoming very overt. With two Republicans refusing to confirm the Educational nominee, and things like McCain going against Trump's phone manners.
I still doubt we see any kind of movement to impeach for a while though.
How about jumping parties? I'm not aware of that happening in the US at all, know it happens here a few time.

Republicans in the state House of Representatives have ousted their minority leader Rep. Beth Fukumoto over her criticism of President Donald Trump, including recent comments that she made at the Women’s March in Honolulu last month.
Fukumoto, 33, said today that she is now considering switching over to the Democratic Party following this week’s actions by her Republican colleagues,

The problem with assassination is not that a single one might not prevent more deaths, but that you don't want people to think they can be independent arbiters of who should and shouldn't live.

Don't forget the Milo supporter who shot a protester in Washington.
All I have read about the man who shot the antifa protestor in self defence was a student and not a Milo supporter. He was a Wobbly, or member of the Industrial Workers of the World.
The violent left had 3 million protesters without a single arrest.. but that was over a week ago, things have changed I guess.
Some people will use any excuse to go out and start fires and turn over cars, be it a protest against a moron, their sports team winning/losing, or a group of countries get together for a meeting. Characterizing a whole group with the actions of a few is lazy and is just a way to rationalize feeling superior to others.

Just proves Milo's point about how violent the left has become.
Just proves how effective Milo has been in brainwashing his audience. Those who caused damage and violence were not part of the left, but were self identifying anarchists. They have no political affiliation other than to disrupt the norm. If anything, these anarchists are more aligned with Yiannopoulos and his bull####, because he, and Steve Bannon, want to burn the system down completely. That is anarchy in a nut shell.

There have been people sending letters and calling schools to explain why they shouldn't allow hate speech at their schools. There have been protests for quite some time against the garbage he spews out. Milo keeps poking the bear and taunting them knowing they can't do anything about it without being given all the labels being used for last night's violence. Are you really surprised it came to this considering he has no consequences to his hateful words, but starts freaking out only when his events are cancelled?
He tries to hide behind his self proclaimed identity as if that gives him the right to hate on other people. He's a despicable person who doesn't deserve the time of day, and hides behind things like free speech to hand out his brand of hate. So what should those who are opposed to this be doing in this perfect world of yours?
