 I get where they're coming from. If I believed Trump was akin to Hitler/Stalin, I would also like to see him literally shot to death. I would do it myself if I had the opportunity and the means. I think assassinating people like Putin or Xi is perfectly legitimate, for instance.

The problem is believing Trump is anywhere near comparable to those people -- that takes a literal psychiatric condition to believe. And then of course, there are those who knowingly put in place, sustained, and keep sustaining to this day the campaign to make the crazies believe that Trump is like Hitler. Those are truly responsible.
