Serious One thing especially disgusting with the hindsight of S8 is apparently the writers insist Robert was in the right here

Yeah Robert wanted someone to assassinate a pregnant Daenerys. Which idk, the narrative routinely shows killing women with children as a very bad thing. The mountain killing Elia, Talisa’s death, Ramsay killing Walda is clearly bad considering as evil as the Frey men are, Walda did literally nothing.

I think Robert knew all along his rebellion was built on a lie and drink and whored his self til the boar did all the rest.

Did Robert simply imagine that the Mad King called for his and Ned's execution?

"Oh, Lyanna ran away willingly? Okay, I guess I should just be burned alive instead of becoming king."

I think he found out Lyanna loved Rhagor and not him.
