Correct. Unfortunately the groups that typically would invest real assets in assassination are the ones with all the money, and one thing he's not doing is threatening their power and profits in a meaningful way. He desperately wants to be one of the gangster oligarchs, and would never cross them cause he is cucked to their opulence (see: Putin). People talk about blackmail material controlling his actions, and I'm sure there is that too, but I'm just as sure they don't need it. No, real preemptive assassination attempts tend to target socialists and equalists and those who stand a real chance at elevating the disenfranchised and bridging the gap in the class war. Can't have that. Mind you, assassination after the damage has already been inflicted is not unheard of, like Mussolini, but that's more of a vengeful act and pyrrhic victory cause it's too damn late. Anyway, happy Tuesday!
