Could someone check with John Roberts to see if making death threats to Congress is within Trump's "responsibilities?"

We know that John anointed Trump as the Christ Child with the understanding that he could do ANYTHING HE WANTED, with ZERO fear of prosecution, if it FELL WITHIN HIS OFFICIAL RESPONSIBILITIES AS PRESIDENT.

So I'm wondering if making death threats against members of Congress for reminding the Military that they ARE NOT TO FOLLOW ILLEGAL ORDERS is something John, Sammy, Uncle Thomas, Boof Boy, Gorsuch, and Amy Conjob Barrett would sign off on.

I'm remembering that time Abraham Lincoln got pissed off at Congress and told them "I'm going to pur SCORPIONS in your BEDS, motherfuckers." At the time, it was deemed to be harsh, but he said "Hey, I was just venting," and they let him off the hook.

Then again, no one said that Abraham Lincoln was the resurrected Jesus Christ, come to walk among us again in human form, like Trump.

HERE'S WHAT GOOGLE AI SAID ABOUT IT IN A GOOGLE SEARCH (my search criteria was "Can a president be impeached for making death threats against members of congress" ):

It is the king’s right to say, “Off with their heads!”

Obviously sarcasm, but I fear that Roberts believes too much in government rule by rich white men to have any remorse over his anointing Trump as essentially above the law.
