The only one I disagree with is cutting funding to USPS. Europe and Canada (nor anyone not specially exempted) should not enjoy advantage in trade. People were beside themselves over rumors of Russian snipers, this guy was directly responsible for troop deaths and much more instability in the ME. We’ve just seen peace agreements begin to bear fruit in the ME —would that have been possible with that guy stirring up hornets’s nests?

The US has countless examples of covert operations that de-stabilised nations and killed other soldiers. Perhaps a cruise missile should be aimed at one of our generals, I'm sure you'd support that.

Syria is still a cluster, Palestine is more oppressed than ever, endless war in Yemen, slave labor in Qatar for the world cup. Kurds abandoned and slaughtered by Turkey. Iran has major instability issues, Pakistan and India have had a major skirmish (granted, not the ME, but it's close enough.)

Should Trump then assassinate Bush and Obama?

No, only external adversaries would entertain such pointless notion. Just like Duterte might in his dreams think of sinking Chinese ships, in reality he’d dig his own grave if he did.
