It is imperative that Biden writes a message from the office of the president that he will “shoot trump on stage during the next debate. “

That probably wouldn't be an official act. Instead, he should order Kamala to do it (communicating with the VP is a core duty) and then pardon her when she does (pardons are a core duty). There, everyone is immune and the entire scheme cannot be questioned or referenced for evidence except for impeachment.

Ive realized recently that there will not be an uprising while we live at least somewhat comfortably. Risking all you have is worth only when you don't have much.

So yeah, washington needs change, usa should preserve its democracy, but it doesn't look like there is enough people willing to form organized protests that would have an impact. And also, change from within does not look likely.
