'Hey @SecretService'? The Bulwark's Charlie Sykes is just thinking — 'for no particular reason' — about that time a president was executed; UPDATED

Bulwark Principled Conservative Charlie Sykes has just been thinking about something today, for no particular reason:

For no particular reason, this morning I’ve been thinking about Nicolae Ceaușescu’s last public appearance.

Too soon?

Well, let’s think about that, Charlie.

Nicolae Ceaușescu's last public appearance was at his execution, in case you don't get the reference that Mr. Sykes is making.

He's openly hoping for an execution of a duly elected political employee he doesn't like. https://t.co/3acgz2aIJI

Charlie, I'd delete that.

We would, too. Although it’s already too late:

Preserved for posterity.

You can tell Charlie is the moral and decent conservative when he *squints* fantasizes about the assassination of a president on a public timeline.

At least it seems to be going over well with some of Sykes’ fellow Principled people:

Translation: Charlie Sykes is fantasizing about executing Donald Trump by firing squad, presumably out of concern for democratic norms.
