Original Note:
No, it is not a crime, as this does not constitute a true threat. See Watts v. United States, where the quote "If they ever make me carry a rifle the first man I want to get in my sights is L.B.J.” was considered to not be a true threat but instead political hyperbole. https://supreme.justia.com/cases/federal/us/394/705/
