you could kill trump and some other corrupt politicians and world leaders and world would be a better place

Monkey Paw: Trump and other corrupt politicians being high up the authority chain made sure more evil politicians didn't get authority.

So you kill those as well. Now trust in democracy is crumbling because for some reason a lot of politicians keep mysteriously dying. "Good" politicians enact laws to protect their lives but those laws are bad as well so now you also have to off the good politicians. I hope you see where this hypothetical is going. The world is not so simple that a few well placed assassinations would fix everything, if that were the case it'd have been done before.
