In November 2017, President Trump attended the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) Summit in Manila, Philippines. The Secret Service, after intercepting “chatter” of a possible attack, tracked an ISIS operative who plotted to kill the president at the summit. The Philippine National Police arrested the suspected terrorist about a mile from the president’s hotel, and the assassination attempt was averted. But what if they hadn't; what if the Islamic State operative had gone through with his (or her- unlikely, I know, but still, best not to assume someone's gender) attack on the 2017 ASEAN Summit, and succeeded in their attempt to assassinate President Trump? What would have happened next, and how great an impact might this assassination have had?
