GQ Correspondent “Wonders” If Obama Could Kill Trump, Then Pardon Self

Drastic action, of course, refers to assassination, which a disturbing number of liberals have cited as a possible “solution” to the problem of Trump. After Vice editor Molly Crabapple quipped that an attempt on Trump’s life would be “funny” and New York Magazine contributor Jonathan Chait put out a $100 million bounty on him over Twitter, British GQ correspondent Rupert Myers pondered aloud if President Obama could kill Trump and Mike Pence and then pardon himself for the act:

“According to his personal website, Myers is a barrister and writer from the United Kingdom. Myers has also contributed to the Guardian and the Telegraph.

Update:

After being probed by Daily Wire contributor Harry Khachatrian on why he deleted the tweet, Myers stated the following:

@Harry1T6 it was a joke that I quickly realised could be taken out of context. you've proved my point

However, upon this article’s initial publication, he did not apologize and doubled-down on his “joke” that Obama could get away with murdering Trump and Pence.

Jokes aside, if the shoe was on the other foot and a Republican had said something similar to a President-elect Clinton or Vice President-elect Kaine, what would the response have been?
