Even after he leaves office (and yes, one day there will be another POTUS), neither he nor his family will be safe. I know the the SS protects ex-Prez, I think for about 10 years. But even so, the Iranians are pretty pissed. God, I'm glad that I'm not Donald Trump.

my family member that i have talked about here a few times actually had a fatwa against him from obl himself. to this day he doesnt use his real name in a lot of things. that's why i get cryptic when i talk about him. deference.

"His fourth novel, The Satanic Verses (1988), was the subject of a major controversy, provoking protests from Muslims in several countries. Death threats were made against him, including a fatwā calling for his assassination issued by Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini, the Supreme Leader of Iran, on 14 February 1989. The British government put Rushdie under police protection."
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Salman_Rushdie
Later in the wikipedia article, we learn that perhaps the "fatwa" calling for Rushdie's assasination has been lifted--but maybe not:
On 24 September 1998, as a precondition to the restoration of diplomatic relations with the UK, the Iranian government, then headed by Mohammad Khatami, gave a public commitment that it would "neither support nor hinder assassination operations on Rushdie.
In November 2015, former Indian minister P. Chidambaram acknowledged that banning The Satanic Verses was wrong.[70][71] In 1998, Iran's former president Mohammad Khatami proclaimed the fatwa finished; but it has never been officially lifted, and in fact has been reiterated several times by Ali Khamenei and other religious officials. Yet more money was added to the bounty in February 2016.
