    Run over Trump, then reverse and run over the oligarchy bastards then proceed to run overTrump, forward and backwards, until the train physically can’t move anymore.

    Definitely let it go straight. Donny already has so little time left that taking out the other 3 would be much more productive

      Not only this, but Trump is a symptom, not the cause. The three on the track amplified Trump’s voice. Letting the train go on the bottom track is the long term solution.

      Would the shock of seeing his three biggist doners caues him to have a heart attack or is he too out of it to care.

    Going by the assumption that everyone on only one track dies and the others live, I’m flipping the lever so hard. Not even the combined evil of those 3 is as bad as the cult of personality Trumpler has control over.

    I still don’t look forward to when Trump dies, it’ll probably be his fault and result in an actual avalanche of conspiracy theories, in no doubt inspiring acts of terror.

    The problem is ultimately about personal responsibility and harm reduction. Nothing says you can’t kick one of them to death.

    ngl, killing Trump would probably be the better option. Just those three billionaires aren’t as dangerous the dictator of a powerful empire.

      Before the election, sure, but replacing Trump with JD Vance doesn’t inhibit the power structures that he represents nearly as much as offing three billionaires.

        I’m sorry, but that’s simply wrong. JD Vance will not be able to hold onto power like Trump can. He’s a charisma black hole who was chosen because he was weak, just like Mike Johnson was chosen for speaker. Trump is not normal; he’s much better at beating his competition and consolidating power than people give him credit for. Just like many dictators who similarly consolidated power around their personality cult, his coalition will fall apart shortly after his death.

        Billionaires are far more replaceable in comparison, as they’re mostly members of a powerful class. Killing them would be an act of terror that could drive their behavior, not a meaningful change in how things work

          Vance would almost certainly not be reelected, sure, but Trump isn’t eligible to run, so it’ll be an uphill battle for him too. He isn’t stupid enough to get removed from office, and that’s all that he has to do: sign Heritage Foundation, Federalist Society, and John Birch Society bills for the rest of the term.

            doubtful. They would also lose support from capitalists and see factionalism limit their reign. Many interests, often not even ideologically opposed, will try to take charge. Trump’s death will eventually usher in a feudal era where capitalists pretend to resurrect liberal democracy. This is because they’ll have missed the stability and power they used to have; where they don’t have to worry about tariffs or showing fealty to one man.
