Isn't it against the law to threaten the president?

I was always told and was taught in civics that threatening the president of the United States was a felony......

Threatening the president of the United States is a federal felony under United States Code Title 18, Section 871. It consists of knowingly and willfully mailing or otherwise making "any threat to take the life of, to kidnap, or to inflict bodily harm upon the president of the United States".

Now I'm not going to attempt to cite every person who's directly or indirectly threatened Trump but there's been numerous loons openly call for death or injury against the president.

Some that come to mind are skank Madonna wanting to burn down the White House (The president occupies that house), I just heard Cuomo say today if Trump tries to defund NYC he better bring an army if he wants to walk down the streets of NYC, I heard a clip of some Antifa/BLM slime ball a day or two ago threatening the White House and the president. The weak politicians in DC and the Dim politicians that control the cities and states that are ground zero for the Marxists movement have emboldened people to threaten our president with no serious repercussions.

The next person who makes any threat of bodily injury or death to the president or any elected politician needs to be confronted with the full weight of the laws that we the people have allowed our legislators to pass, the laws that are meant to maintain law and order.
