Well I mean a lot could… George H Bush failed to be popular enough for re-election, so really it’s a total shift in everything, and possibly effectiveness of what gets implimented.
Agreed, even with a time machine… secret service would make it quite difficult. Obviously the morality of killing baby hitler is always a thing.
Really though more morally though you probably could prevent most politicians from being politicians non lethally. Break into the hospital, swap him with another baby. It’s a combination of nature and nurture so… if you change the upbringing, he probably won’t wind up president.
One suggestion I’ve seen regarding Hitler is getting him when he was a runner in WWI. Nobody would question another casualty.
As far as modern evil people go, making sure that baby in a hospital in Queens in 1946 doesn’t go to a rich family would almost certainly prevent a lot of future suffering. He’s a born narcissist and would always be an asshole, but without rich parents propping him up he likely wouldn’t have gone anywhere of note. He’s not nearly smart enough to have made it on his own.

I suppose it also depends on when Reagan gets offed. 1981 would be a lot different than 1988.
Of course, the smart move is to assassinate the person BEFORE they’re in a position of power.

TIL Dubya, Slick-Willie, and Donnie Moscow were all born in the same year.
And Donnie Moscow is older than either of them.
Just make sure he gets in to art school.
No one pays attention to artists.
Yeah or assassinate the dude who didn’t let Hitler into art school
George Bush likely lost because Ross Perot split the vote.
And the response was that we should really fix this messed up voting system we have.
