I’m not sure about that counter-argument. POTUS is currently the most powerful position in the world, but between 1850 and 1915 (approximate dates), I think the British and possibly French empires were more powerful.
In this time period, three American presidents were assassinated. The UK lost one MP, who was not the PM, and apparently the killers only targeted him because he happened to be walking with their main target at the time. None of the UK royals were assassinated in that period.
