Have there been any credible threats to Trump?

I can remember an occasional report during the Dubya and Obama Presidencies regarding the number of "threats made against the President."

We never hear any such reports with Slump. Gosh, I wonder why.

1. Maybe because those who hate him most are praying that he live

to complete his four years. If he dies in office, he'll be a martyr. Things will be named for him, and Mar-a-Lago will become a place of pilgrimage. I hope he lives for a long, long time and understands how hated and despised he is.

4. Yes, indeed. However, there must have been threats to this asshole if Dubya and Obama got them.

I wonder why we don't hear about it. It would certainly hurt his "ratings".
I guess that's why we don't know how many.

No matter how stupid he is. There is an incredibly dedicated team to protect him as the President and what the office stands for.

not dead. It is better that he be voted out of office and live to be tried for a multitude cases that are on temporary hold.
I would like to see him stripped of his power and wealth and have to spend the rest of his life fighting to maintain freedom.

I have heard that the TRUTH has it out for him and is a serious, credible threat. He is on guard for it and keeps it out with a vaccination of lies though.

10. I'm confident is that the answer is yes, and we will never be told of it. Nor will he (his orders).

I believe the biggest threat to his life is what any REAL doctor will have told him if he ever got himself examined by one. He is seriously overweight, and his diet has to mean that he has some serious arterial blockage, even if his cholesterol count is not in the danger zone yet.

But, of course, as long as he doesn't want to hear any objective evaluation of his medical condition, he thinks there is nothing to worry about. Men in better health than he have dropped dead of sudden heart attacks, and at a younger age. The fact that he hasn't had one yet does not guarantee he won't have one in the next five hours.
