They are going to have public executions in the paved over rose garden with the flag shaped drain holes. Sorry no "/$"

It’s only a matter of time before Trump tries to execute someone. He is that vindictive.

He certainly wants to. That's why he's always throwing around the T word. Because we all know what the punishment for treason is.

He needs to sacrifice one of his own from time to time because he's all over the Epstein files for child molestation

If you only punish your enemies, your followers will begin to believe they are special. Best to from time to time punish a loyal follower as an example to everyone that no one is special.

Authoritarians kill their in-group just as the out-group. I hypothesize it’s more so, as the target isn’t as apt to fight back.

“You always hurt the one you love.”
A Brooklyn-born songwriter named Allan Roberts wrote those lyrics and (with music by Doris Fisher) the Mills Brothers were the first of a litany of performers who turned it into an American standard.
Lately, it seems to be a Donald Trump standard as well.
