President Obama served two terms in a country full of deplorable gun nuts, redneck hicks, right wing bigots, some who thought he was a Kenyan Muslim, and had no credible assassination attempts on him.

I bet dollars to donuts that some left wing nut job takes a shot at Trump. He hasn’t even been sworn in yet and “Kill Trump” graffiti is popping up at the anti-Trump protests.
