This guy really thinks he's never gonna die. I'll be surprised if he survives this upcoming term, and not even from a Minecraft related cause, just poor health.
What is a "Minecraft related cause?"
Because it's illegal to say "I want to kill the president of the United States of America."
Most based WKUK by far 😘👌
When you're talking about actionable threats, I.E. real world violence, but want to appear only hypothetical, the meme is, "I'd kill X in Minecraft.".
Creepers in the White House, it's a known problem in the dark corners of the building. Half of what the secret service does in the morning is clear the building of creepers that spawned over night when no one was around to block hostile mob spawns.
They've had to rebuild the place over and over and over and you have no idea how hard it is to find enough lapis for the floor tiles. Hours of digging tunnels down to the bedrock...
Death by Ender Dragon.
A lot of dumb people thought they could talk about killing politicians on the Internet if they ended their message with "in Minecraft" so they could claim they were just taking about a game. At least one of them has already been arrested proving their plan doesn't actually provide any defense.
So a Minecraft cause would be someone plotting (and then presumably actually) killing them.

You a fed or something?
He got the wrong ideas from all these god emporer memes back in the day.
Moneo! Bring another attorney general!
He'll spend 50% of his time golfing, the other 50% fucking up the country
