Welcome to the News community!
Rules:
1. Be civil
Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only. This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban. Do not respond to rule-breaking content; report it and move on.
2. All posts should contain a source (url) that is as reliable and unbiased as possible and must only contain one link.
Obvious biased sources will be removed at the mods’ discretion. Supporting links can be added in comments or posted separately but not to the post body. Sources may be checked for reliability using Wikipedia, MBFC, AdFontes, GroundNews, etc.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
4. Post titles should be the same as the article used as source. Clickbait titles may be removed.
Posts which titles don’t match the source may be removed. If the site changed their headline, we may ask you to update the post title. Clickbait titles use hyperbolic language and do not accurately describe the article content. When necessary, post titles may be edited, clearly marked with [brackets], but may never be used to editorialize or comment on the content.
5. Only recent news is allowed.
Posts must be news from the most recent 30 days.
6. All posts must be news articles.
No opinion pieces, Listicles, editorials, videos, blogs, press releases, or celebrity gossip will be allowed. All posts will be judged on a case-by-case basis. Mods may use discretion to pre-approve videos or press releases from highly credible sources that provide unique, newsworthy content not available or possible in another format.
7. No duplicate posts.
If an article has already been posted, it will be removed. Different articles reporting on the same subject are permitted. If the post that matches your post is very old, we refer you to rule 5.
8. Misinformation is prohibited.
Misinformation / propaganda is strictly prohibited. Any comment or post containing or linking to misinformation will be removed. If you feel that your post has been removed in error, credible sources must be provided.
9. No link shorteners or news aggregators.
All posts must link to original article sources. You may include archival links in the post description. News aggregators such as Yahoo, Google, Hacker News, etc. should be avoided in favor of the original source link. Newswire services such as AP, Reuters, or AFP, are frequently republished and may be shared from other credible sources.

For copyright reasons, you are not allowed to copy an entire article into your post body. This is an instance wide rule, that is strictly enforced in this community.

Serious question: had this individual been successful in killing Trump, who would be Trump's successor?
The guy who shot him, as it happens with the Sith.
Honestly no one. Trump couldn't get any of his acolytes elected in 2022. For whatever reason the MAGA base only likes Trump.
Which is kind of a good thing, in certain regards.
It really wouldn't matter, he'd be a martyr for "the cause" and everyone riding his coattails would be foaming at the mouth to replace him as the figurehead with big Trump posters behind em for the rest of time.
Tulsi, Vivek, RFK, NIki... There are a lot of choices out there and I think the Republicans would most likely do a quick round of debates/votes to get someone in.
...at least they listen to their party base. The DNC fucked over every candidate who wouldn't fall in line and bow. The base wanted Bernie, and look how that turned out. They don't gaf what their base wants, they'll prop up whoever they think they can control.
It's funny that half the people in that list (Tulsi and RFK) are actually pretty normal (relatively, of course). Better than both running candidates.
OK, I haven't even been in the US, so just an outside opinion.
RFK is not normal. He had a brain parisyte that ate part of his brain.
That's normal relatively to two senile Hitlers without taste
Nobody knows.
Don Jr? Ivanka? His VP that I'm sure Don Jr knows.
Right, it'd probably be a relative.
That’s how wannabe royalty works.
And it would be perfectly in line with the trump family to capitalize on the death of one of their kind.
I'm sure the republican party would have another candidate immediately. There were a bunch of other candidates that ran a little bit earlier this year for this election, but got like zero news coverage and dropped out. I know because I looked them up a couple a weeks ago wondering why I never heard of others in passing.
