    This is not the trolley problem. The question is not kill Trump or. The killing attempt failed. Trump is alive. There is nothing to gain by advocating for political violence after a failed assassination attempt.

      If this was an assassination attempt on Hitler in 1939, would the trolley problem not apply? If the attempt succeeded before his successful rise to power, how many lives would have ultimately been saved?

      I don’t think you can say either way for sure which outcome would lead to less bloodshed… I do know that trying and missing is probably the worst possible outcome…
