Maybe we think a president is worth something. But anything is only worth what you can get for it on the market. I remember watching some "Olympus has Fallen" or other really bad movie, where the North Koreans held the POTUS hostage, and through out the movie I kept shouting, "Kill the bastard! We have 300 Million more of them!" If I was an American. But now there is a rather unique situation, where Americans could impeach, remove, and turn over the Donald, and recover some of the taxes he owes. Yes, the Iranians would probably kill him, but given his mental, and moral, state, that is no great injustice.
On the side, how much could we get for John Bolton, on the open market? Rumsfeld? Ouww, I bet Kissinger would go for a pretty penny! And Wolfowitz and his traitor wife. Oh, you didn't know about that one? Khallow, unfortunately, would sell for very little. Poor khallow.
