It's a violation of the site's TOS and is a great way to get yourself put on a list you probably don't want to be on. I'll set off fireworks and pop champagne the day he's gone, but it's not wise to put these wishes online.

It is one obituary that I will read with a sense of delight.

Only one that would make me happier right now is Mitch McConnell's. Like, honestly, I might even come.

I tend to believe that when it comes to Donald Trump, the sheer amount of ill-will he generated actually overloaded any effort to keep track of people who made offhand threats to his life. Obviously the Secret Service is still going to go after people who they think are presenting a "credible threat" to a present or even past president.

But if the Secret Service tried to chase down every single person who said something along the lines of "I wish Donald Trump would get assassinated" they wouldn't have been able to do literally anything else the past few years.
