    Yes, I am wishing that Donald Trump’s intestine ends up throttling his brain like in a comedic science fiction novel.

    On a same level of things that are possible, I am also wishing I held the world speed record for the 100 meter hurdles.

      Oh so we can wish death on people and as along as we’re not capable of making it happen it’s okay?

        Sorry… you’re asking if it’s okay to wish someone die in a way that is literally impossible? Sure, why not. Go for it.

          Seeing as I can’t actually make it happen and it’s not going to happen because I wished for it, that means its okay with you for me to wish for your death?

          Let’s maybe focus instead of not wishing death on people? How about I wish Trump was in jail for his crimes and wasn’t able to compete in the race.

            You are welcome to wish that my large intestine becomes sentient, makes its way through my body up to my brain and then starves it of oxygen for the betterment of humanity.

            Why do you think I would care about that even a little?

              Careful dude. The small intestine is weak and dumb. But that large one? It’s sneaky. Just been biding it’s time until it strikes. You open that window and you might not be able to close it.

            Why do you care more about Donald Trump than all the people who’ve died as a direct result of both his policies and his rhetoric?

        Stop concern trolling. The ridiculous nature of the “threat” makes it obvious they’re being completely unserious.
