No, this makes perfect sense. For a long time I have worried about the Left's rhetoric aimed at Trump. I have been very worried that such language would cause some nut with a gun to believe that killing Trump would be justified in the cause of protecting democracy. But I was worried about whether such an attack might come were Trump to win in November. I now see I was wrong; somebody decided that Democracy could not wait until November.

Secret Service: “The former President is safe!” It's a staged event.... Idiotic take.

Very much looked like it. Another idiotic take. Shouldn't have made a judgment based on the video and auditory noises. Fine to admit I was wrong, if the end result bears that out. Sources are saying it was a rifle from 200-300 yards away and Secret Service didn't vet the entire site.

I get it that you'd want to make it out that I'm justifying it, because that's just simply who you are. The big difference? One is potentially criminal, and the other is not. Like I said in different posts, I don't condone what he did, and said in any of the scenarios. You have it wrong, AGAIN. He didn't say that to underage girls, meaning under 18. He said that at the Miss USA and/or Miss Universe contests. He walked in on the underage girls which is bad enough, but the quotes you're referring to were not to them. Get it right for a change, Mr. Spin. Just so this is crystal clear: His comments were TO the underage girls, bragging about how he had "seen it all before" from the Miss USA pageant. There is no distinction to be made. He has a history of walking in on women and girls while they aren't dressed. I don't know what else you want me to say. Ok, I just re-read it, and I thought Trump said "Don't worry ladies, I've seen it all before" to the Miss USA pageant ladies and not the Miss Teen girls. My bad. Misunderstanding. He said it to the Teen pageant ladies. Sorry. My bad. I was very upset, because I thought it was the other way around and you were making it out like I was ok with it. I get it now. Like I've said, it's not good either way, but a bit different if he's saying that to underage girls. Also, like I said before, that's just one of the character flaws that attributes to why I won't vote for him. Peace.

Not if the subject is a liar, convicted fraudster and known for staging events...like the one at the "Black" church Detroit...nope...not an idiotic take at all...now an idiotic take would be "Let's start a gofundme for the shooter" to give him an atta boy for his unsuccessful effort....

NewsNation a short time ago put up an aerial showing where authorities supposedly found the shooter's body and where the stage Trump was on. I measured it on Google maps and got 455 feet which is about 139 meters. That distance was an easy shot with an M16 when I was in the U.S. Army. Trump is lucky to be alive if this is accurate, and it's an epic fail by the Secret Service.

It is strange that in this day and age...it's basically a rooftop shot...no different than Kennedy. era? thought security had evolved since then.

So Secret Service is complicit? The shooter got awfully close...140 yards away with a rifle...at a crowded event...that no one saw him crawl up...I have an expert marksman badge from my Army basic training...to get it I had to hit 36 out of 40 targets from 80-300 meters (327 yards) away with a M-16 rifle...the shooter happened to miss an easy shot...but was instantly killed by whoever...so, to answer your question...we'll never know if SS is complicit...but you can't put it past Trump set it up....

Multiple media sources are saying it was glass fragments and not a bullet that struck Trump. Trump, on Truth Social, said he was hit by a bullet.

To speculate that Trump somehow staged this is pure insanity. With zero evidence you accuse the Secret Service?? The fact someone got close is inexcusable, however if you feel the need to point a speculative finger I suggest you look at who has the most to gain and the clearest motive. Either that or an outlier kook brainwashed by the “Trump is EVIL” narrative constantly droned on by the mainstream democrat controlled media. I hope “moanin Joe”, Joy Behare and all the other anti Trump media personalities report themselves to their nearest toilet….and flush themselves away for good. Seriously, they all stink to high heaven. That being said, this was a very close brush with death for President Trump, one inch to the left and the bullet goes in his eye socket and through his brain. Truly this man had some kind of divine grace looking after him. The bullet which almost killed Reagan was a ricochet off the presidential limousine. Right into his left lung, almost killed him on the spot. JSYK.

The melodrama is unnecessary.

Trump walked off stage after being shot like a friggin, LION! He is the man to take on our foreign adversaries He is the next president. He probably orchestrated the whole event.... Get real.
