    Most people if they ever got a time machine would go back and kill hitler, and I get a feeling in a few years that this turd will become the more popular choice.

        …or the time travelers were just unsuccessful. I mean there have been attempts on his life.

        Not necessarily if you consider the Xeelee Sequence perspective on it.

        In XS, humanity is at war with an alien foe known as the Xeelee. Humanity has mastered time travel, but so has their alien enemy. When a battle begins, both sides take information back to the past to turn the tide in their favor. When the battle changes from this new information, more people go to the past with updates. This eventually results in a stabilized version of the battle resistant to timeline changes.

        Therefore, if time travel exists, something similar could have happened to our world. Due to various opposing factions in the future, Trump’s rise has stabilized in the timeline we currently exist in. If someone tries to changes that, the timeline will again correct itself due to additional intervention.

    These things go on behind closed doors during every presidency. The weird thing is putting out feelers to see whether he should do it.

    Guess you get strange decisions from someone who whips their rape baby into the middle of the water.
