    The last 4 years has taught us that if you make cr@p up and repeat it often enough and loudly enough it becomes fact. This is sham shooting is 100% created to bolster the image that Trump is Jesus Christ incarnate and that no mere man can kill him.

    Hell, there is a poster on here that is adamant that viruses are a figment of the imagination, I can claim this was scripted.

    Yeah dude and the SS detail was in on it.

    That post is about as bad as the fools that suggested Biden had anything to do with it.

    When you have a shred of proof to back up you silliness come back please.

    Liberals are the worst of the human race. Just again proven today.

    And now you assailants are acting like victims about "How will Trump use this, inflame this, etc etc etc."

    It is time for you to shut up and apologize for your demonization of the man.

    But, you won't as you are not the best of the human race...

    I mean if you want to be filed with the "Viruses aren't real crowd" that's a bold move. Let us know how that works out.
    Just so we are clear. The shooter was willing to give his life for the cause I assume?

    And then you risk getting lumped in with that guy….

    Maybe you’re trying to joke and be hyperbolic.

    Are you kidding? The viruses aren't real crowd get elected to the House, the Senate and soon back to the White House.

    And, just so I am clear. You are stating that it is impossible that a lying, cheating, grifting, perverted, traitorous, convicted felon who owes the very existence of his financial "empire" to mother Russia, would never collude on a staged shooting?

    If the victim was anyone else you would have a point. Trump is virtually certain to find some way to utilize the attempted assassination in his campaign. It wouldn't surprise me if he doesn't echo the allegation that Biden incited the shooter by using the word "bulls-eye" in a conference on political strategy a week ago.

    I am saying a narcisist would never allow a bullet to graze his head and that the shooter wouldn't sacrifice his life for the cause.

    And as much as I hate Trump, when was he ever a "viruses arent real" person? He had covid and documented it.

    The media points out that, when Trump calls his opponents "vermin", refers to migrants as "animals" who "infest" our country, and says migrants are "poisoning the blood" of our country, he is using dehumanizing language straight out of Hitler's playbook. That's a fact, whether you agree or not.

    On the other hand, he assured everyone that Covid was no big deal and would soon "disappear" . . . . about 2 years before it was under control. By the time it was under control, over 1.1 million Americans had died from Covid.

    Have you not seen what Trump, and other right wingers, post daily for the last 8 years?

    The lies, the inflammatory crap about the election, the supposed witch hunts, hit squads, child molesting rings, abortion murderers, etc they have claimed?

    And the irony is it was a Republican who shot him. Seems like a big part of the Republican party might be trying to safe their own party.

    Regardless of reasons, words, etc and violence is wrong.

    I’m far from a Trump supporter what an absolutely idiotic comment.

    Your post smells like another ridiculous conspiracy theory we hear way too often from both sides these days.

    Compassion appreciated. I would hope both parties would be civil along with all media. I wish I could be more optimistic that things will change for the better. But anyhow your kind words are appreciated.

    A twenty yr old dude who is a registered Republican but donated to a liberal PAC. Let’s be clear on that.

    Fact is Trump and the media have a “relationship” that is mutually beneficial. He says stupid, idiotic stuff. The liberal media reacts with outrage and the conservative media responds to that with outrage. The emotionally charged US citizens on the left and the right respond in outrage.

    All eyes, nonstop, on CNN, FOX etc and the advertising dollars continue to roll in. The cows on The View stay on the air. Late night talk show hosts have their nightly opening monologues.

    Free promo for Trump, great business for the media. Great for the Lefties, too. They have their enemy, an object of their ire. So, they have “purpose”. Business is good

    And the there’s X (Twitter). An open sewer serving up feces to any no brained pig that gleefully bellies up.

    It’s all a bunch of garbage.

    Then, there’s the rational decent folks in the middle. Scratching their heads and wondering if/when there will ever be a presidential candidate worthy of the privilege of leading this country. Also hoping the numbskulls on both ends of the spectrum who continue to engage in intellectually retarded trench warfare will just crawl into a hole someday and fester amongst themselves.

    God help us all.

    Lol, give me a break. The right has spent the past 8 years demonizing liberals every chance they get, calling them groomers and pedophiles, saying they drink the blood of children and own pedophile rings in the basement of pizza restaurants, and defaming them every chance they get. You have a lot of brass to come on here and make this statement because a few liberals have made less than flattering comments about Trump - they were wrong but please spare me the faux outrage from the right and acting like liberals are the worst of humanity given the right’s history, especially recently.

    I thought this too but I just don’t think trump would let anyone shoot near him. The crazies are riled up on both sides. I imagine there will be lots of arrests of crazies in the time between now and the election. It does seem to be a bad plot of a dim soap opera.

    The guy was a registered republicans and probably a gun nut. Let's not forget, the last time someone came close to killing a member of the republican ticket, it was also a bunch of republicans chanting "hang Mike Pence"...
