He probably orchestrated the whole event.... Get real. Take him for who he is. This is the same guy who said that it was fake, even though people died, and were injured. I'm not really shocked though to hear that come from him, unfortunately. |

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 shooter turns out to be a registered Republican and a pro 2A individual...and Trump wasn't even hit by a bullet. The melodrama is unnecessary. Are you sure he was hit by glass?Melodrama? Again, you've got it bad, real bad. |

Of course if it was Biden you would be having kittens and blaming MAGA. You’re even more delusional than Biden. Shooter was a 20 year old kid BTW. |

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. Of course, it would be you to marginalize an assassination attempt with headline grabbing sound bites, not unlike CNN that reported Trump fell. I wouldn’t be surprised if the shooter was some kind of keyboard bully or a wannabe cyber stalker. |

Headlines. CNN has a honesty issue. How they could go there at all, is absolutely amazing. I mean, wait a little bit to get the facts first. I know, a new concept. Sheesh. Now they have pie in their face. The haters will marginalize, that's for sure. If it were Biden, I'd be saying the same thing. It's reprehensible, to say the least. |

This world is just effed up. It's a friggin free for all. Anything goes. Absolutely sick comments. They're cheering for animals to be burned and displaced along with land being destroyed. Unbelievable. They should not allow that in the comments section of ANY News Station, about ANY subject. |

Again, you've got it bad, real bad. It's been confirmed by hospital staff and by reports, so yeah, I'm pretty sure. Acting like you care this deeply is pretty odd. I'm not going to get sucked into the vortex of whatever cult worshipping is going to take place, this is another convenient narrative to turn Trump into the national hero.... he's still the same person he was yesterday. |

I wouldn’t be surprised if the shooter was some kind of keyboard bully or a wannabe cyber stalker. As far as assassination attempts go, this was a pretty big fail when you can't hit a static target with a long gun from not all that far away. He's fine, like I've said over and over. You're out here posting pictures like he's royalty, so maybe examine that....? Regarding the media, they jammed cell signals and it was chaotic. The media was told to duck down below the podium area so I'm sure the premature headlines weren't out of spite for Trump. As someone who's been through a mass shooting, the unknown is a very scary place. Until you have clarity, you have no real clue what's happening. |

There's zero indication at this point of any motive for the shooting, so acting like it's the fault of people speaking truth to power is premature. |

You know what you heard when Paul Pelosi was attacked with a hammer? Mockery. Crickets.
You know what you heard when Trump posted an image of a bound and gagged Biden in the trunk of a car? Crickets.
You know what you heard when countless election officials were threatened with death, racial slurs and the death of their kids by Trump supporters? Crickets.
Pearl-clutching isn't the answer. Heroics aren't the answer. Leveling with the fact we have a problem with gun culture and political division is.

Worth it.
Now, if we could only get lawmakers to care this much about murdered children in schools...

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.

This is bad, even by the standards you set with never being able to respond to questions. What has anyone said that hasn't been true, beyond what you want to hear?
Here is what has been bothering me for some time. I have been afraid that the anti-Trump rhetoric would cause something like this to happen. Do you find that belief unreasonable? I realize that the rhetoric used in political campaigns can sometimes become pretty extreme. That goes back to the 19th Century. But the rhetoric aimed at Trump has been far worse than that aimed at any other presidential candidate in the 18 campaigns I personally witnessed. (That goes back to 1952, by the way.)
I do not respect Donald Trump, period. I've made that clear many times. But he is not Adolf Hitler, which is what some on the left have said. And he is not an existential threat to democracy in this country. To suggest the latter is absurd and ignores the strength of our democratic institutions. No one man is capable of taking over this country as Hitler did to Germany. There is, nevertheless, plenty of reason to not want DJT in the White House again. But one does not have to resort to the language used against the man. Whether the shooter was inspired by anti-Trump rhetoric cannot be proven at this point. To suggest that such a link is unthinkable is foolish.
Here is a link to a thouthful piece of the comparison of Trump to Hitler.
