This specific political topic is on the top of everyone's mind. If the US president was assassinated, would you say the same? If your child was killed for political reasons, would you continue your blissful mornings aloof?

This specific political topic is absolutely not the top of everyone's mind. The number of people on HN that this tangibly affects is frankly miniscule.

Most of HN is American. It's on the other side of the world. It has about as much actual effect on the typical American as the just as bad events currently unfolding in Sudan.

This thread's numbers betray you. You're living under a rock if you think this topic isn't a regular at the highest political levels, on the news, and now frankly at the ballot box.

Those numbers you referenced have nothing to do with the topic. We aren't talking about "americans’ views of global threats". As I saw from your other comment, you're just living under a rock and you know it.

> We aren't talking about "americans’ views of global threats".

That...is in fact exactly the topic of conversation? I can't help you with this one.
