This was outside so I didn't have a lot of time to think. I just started saying, "If Trump had died, things would have gotten really bad..." Then I kinda just trailed off because my mind was racing about all the possibilities of how people would react. So in the end, I didn't really give an answer other than, "It'd be bad." Thankfully, my kids didn't push the issue because i'm not really sure what more I could have said.
