What if he tweeted encouraging people to go murder [insert any of the groups he has repeatedly attacked] ? Would the absolutism of allowing that outweigh the obvious problems it would bring on?

Four US presidents have been assasinated, two wounded, and there have been attempts on many more, including Trump. Clearly speech critical of the president cannot be allowed on twitter.

I originally left out the word "he," which made my question less clear. But if a president encouraged murder, do you think that should be left alone? What if he tweeted he would pardon anyone, even further encouraging it?
