    Alex Jones and InfoWars guest Ivan Raiklin (who calls himself Trump's "secretary of retribution") discussed how assassinating Trump would be beneficial, according to them, because it would lead to retaliatory “in kind” assassinations of a “deep state” list which includes President Joe Biden. Ivan Raiklin: “If they [assassinate Trump], option 2, behind Trump, is going to be so much better for us and so much worse them.” Alex Jones: “I was about as to say, If they kill him, that’s best case scenario from a sick level. From a sick level medium,

    "Oh, please kill him."

    I mean, it’s so good after that.” Raiklin: “Oh, it’s going to be the best cleansing and the fastest cleansing that we’ve ever seen in my lifetime. I guaran—, I access, with almost certainty, with the highest level of confidence, that if they assassinate Trump, it is so game over for them.”




    I wonder if the Republican shooter watched and was influenced by this?

    Oh no, he clearly heard Biden in a private meeting say "we need to put a bullseye on Trump." even though it never got reported until after the fact.

    When I saw this post for some reason I assumed that it was @TheGator that was the OP :)

    How so? Do you have a source for a retaliation?

    Hmmm…. right wing influencers pop a boner over how great it would be for their cause if someone killed Trump … Then a white, male, conservative, ammosexual, Republican tries to shoot Trump…. But it’s the liberals fault….

    the only thing that makes sense at this point — if there was a political motivation- was this kid either wanted to help Trump win, and missed on purpose, or wanted to kill Trump to start the retribution war they’ve been promised.

    Yeah, a twisted part of my brain is like: "if this guy wanted to help Democrats, did he shoot at the right guy?" We've had weeks of media about Biden needing to drop out or else Trump wins and Joe not doing it. Anyways the fact that the case can be made any way you look at it, means to me you have someone operating either on bozo 'logic' or just a school shooter nihilist.

    I’m going to lean heavily towards the latter, with a sprinkle of the former

    I am really starting to lean in on this angle. Be the shot that set off the second civil war.

    Or two Republican guys who are MAGA = "MAGA Republicans" i.e. correctly using the plural

    Two idiots trying to think of a worst case scenario? That's what you describe as MAGA Republicans? Maybe just call them 2 idiots instead... more fitting.

    Uh ... Rick ... based on the quotes above, they said assassinating Trump would be the "best case" from the sick and depraved level of the far right, not the worst case ... let me quote it for you again ...

    Ivan Raiklin: “If they [assassinate Trump], option 2, behind Trump, is going to be so much better for us and so much worse them.”

    Alex Jones: “I was about as to say, If they kill him, that’s best case scenario from a sick level. From a sick level medium, Oh, please kill him. I mean, it’s so good after that.”

    Are Alex Jones and Ivan Raiklin not MAGA Republicans?

    Not sure they are... But your title is ambiguous at best. You make is sound like a committee or consensus of Pubs, and not just 2 talking heads.

    Nah it’s pretty direct and to the point. A clip of 2 well known right-wing MAGAs stating Trumps assassination would be great. I didn’t make up anything or mislead anyone.
