Trump probably shot at a rally -- Still a jerk

Trump says he’s safe and being treated for minor injuries. Thank heavens.

That said…certain elements on X are convinced this was staged to give Trump a boost in the polls. Not gonna agree with the cause just yet, but I agree with the effect this is likely to have.
 
Listening to the shots, it doesn’t sound like any sort of long range rifle. Of course, the tv cameras/sound engineers could be messing with what we’re hearing. But I’m going to venture that someone 3D printed some kind of improvised projectile device in order to sneak in undetected (edit) and fired at close range. This also makes me think it wasn’t a real bullet/cartidge.

Just my way-too-early wild speculation. I wonder if they already have someone in custody.
Hey no laws on the books in 1789 banning 3d printed guns so totally cool.
 
To be honest if someone really tried to assassinate me I'd really have to think twice about running. Just like Robert Kennedy and everything that happened to his family I'd think twice.
 
On tv, i could hear what sounded like multiple gunshots. Trump flinched and grabbed his ear after the first. Had blood on the side of his head when SS rushed him out.

We've all been expecting this. If they can't beat him or cheat him, they'll kill him.
The irony of a man who called for 2nd amendment solutions against a political maybe being shot at is pretty wild.

Now I don’t want someone to shoot Trump. But he has a huge responsibility for upping the level of hatred in the country for political opponents. FYI no one is going to cheat him. Again the irony of you saying that when most charges of actual voter fraud have been against Republicans is just hilarious.

How detached from reality are you?

Why "thanks heavens"?

You're supposed to exterminate vermin.

But what if it won't die?

Regardless of my opinions of Trump... any individual, group or political party that would do this, condone it or take any joy at all in this act is my enemy and enemy of the country.

That's what I said about Trump when he tried to do the coup and any Trump supporters that supported his coup to end the United States.

Do you also agree that people that attempt coups and support coups against the united states are your enemy and an enemy of the United States?

remember: it is established fact that Trump attempted a coup.
