Major Paper Publishes Assassination Fantasy

The New York Times published a lurid Trump-assassination fanfic in which a Russian agent is about to murder the President when his gun misfires… only to be helped out by a secret service agent who offers his own weapon to kill President Trump. 

Of course, the Left loves this kind of fantasy. From Kathy Griffin on, Liberals love to imagine Trump being killed. 

Daily Caller reports:

The New York Times published a short story about assassinating President Donald Trump Tuesday just one day before “potential explosive devices” showed up at the addresses of multiple political figures including former President Barack Obama.

The New York Times asked novelists “to conjure possible outcomes” to special counsel Robert Mueller’s investigation of Russian meddling in the 2016 election for a Tuesday piece.

English thriller novelist Zoë Sharp wrote the short story, titled “How It Ends,” about a Russian assassin on a suicide mission who receives help from a Secret Service agent to kill Trump. A character who is working with the Russians in the story implies that Trump “was handpicked at the highest possible level” and must be silenced.

Sharp’s story is set after Mueller’s investigation indicts, subpoenas and even places under house arrest “the president’s campaign manager, then his lawyer, a Republican congressman, former aides, family members.”
