Obama got away with assassinating two Americans via drone attack, how is this hypothetical different?


Obama should have been held accountability, but still, hypothetically, I can see a pretty big difference between a drone strike against alleged Al Qaeda members in the Middle East and if President Biden ordered a strike against Donald Trump, don’t you?

Well to start, he killed Americans that were not AQ nor alleged to be a part of AQ. Unless you think a politician's life is worth more than your everyday American's life, I don't see a difference

Morally - yes.

Legally…I’m not so sure.

In essence, legally, he murdered two US citizens who didn’t revoke their citizenship, or have their citizenship revoked.

Again, President Obama may have had a moral justification, but it’s the legality of the circumstance that is at question.
