Even I, personally, would be very upset that the president of the United States was assassinated. But, that the particular president of the United States that was assassinated was Donald Trump, I would, personally, celebrate, probably, for several months.

It is never good to have a situation where the president can be assassinated or is not in charge of his faculties. He needs to be removed from office legitimately for the good of the country, to avoid fracturing it further.

I think this is likely given that he is such a colossal asshole, simply no one can form a real relationship with him (working or otherwise) because no one stand to be around him for very long. He is only capable of abusive relationships in which both parties use each other.

However, normally narcissists burn through and eventually run out of relationships to use for narcissistic supply. Unfortunately, because we have “elected” this extreme malignant narcissist as president of the most powerful nation on earth (for now at least), he has the entire world to abuse and churn through.

To answer your question, a great many people would mind. Although I think the event would just be used like every other event his rampaging ego has caused - taken advantage of by snakes and opportunists for their own gain and then discarded like so much political baggage. It would also become a springboard for JD Vance and every other fascist that has been flourishing under his administration.
