Trump rushed off stage after possible assassination attempt

[Danderman123]

The politics of the shooter don't matter, he was just a nut job.

 

Maybe he just wanted his 15 minutes of fame.

ok you go with that. the only flat building top within clear line of sight and it isn't protected. nor does the SS sniper team a few hundred meters away see him.  ooooooook. 

You are making my point for me.

 

Clearly someone wasn't paying attention.

I blame Robert Di Nero. "If Trump gets voted in he will never leave." Sure, just like he did last time he was voted in. 🙄

Your memory is poor. Trump did his best to not leave after the voters fired him.

Maybe the shooter took out the team that was covering that building before he climbed up.

getting desperate, are we? to 'read' something into this is just just not there.

Rep. Jared Golden, D-Maine, penned a lengthy thread on X about the hyperbole in American politics, urging politicians to stop framing their opponents as "fascists."

The vulnerable Democrat congressman took to X to denounce the current path that he says the country is on, adding that leaders need to guide America down a different one.

"We can start by dropping hyperbolic threats about the stakes of this election," he wrote. "It should not be misleadingly portrayed as a struggle between democracy or authoritarianism or a battle against fascists or socialists bent on destroying America. These are dangerous lies."

Maybe a few ( or at least one on here) can stop using the word fascist every other boring post of his too.

Reports say gunman dead and one bystander was killed.  

 

Looking at the video it appears a bullet may have grazed his ear?

Where did that bullet finish up? There were people behind him.

First of all, it wasn't a flat roof. It was a low-pitched gable roof. The witnesses on the ground who saw the shooter first said the shooter couldn't be seen from where the SS were stationed. The witnesses said they kept pointing to the shooter and the ss kept looking at them with binoculars but would not be able to see the shooter.

100% true. 

I will explain for the liberal thinkers. 

You are not saying that Biden caused the shooter to do that.

You are saying Trump would be blamed by media and Dems, and that Trump would be indicted by a rabid Democrat AG.

Obviously true 100%. Obviously. 

oh for some posts worth reading, than this tripe. has anyone noted the obvious subject being missed.  the lack of control over gun purchases in the USA (shooters dad bgt the gun and did not lock it up) is the main reason for this tragedy. Just like all the innocents who get shot dead every year. due to people like you.

The idea that he won't leave if he is voted in this time is ridiculous.

 

He was voted out before and left. That is what happened.

Yeah and even stranger, the shooter has been identified and they claim he was a Republican!

 

That's not hard to believe.  You may recall it was a thing in the primaries.  The Dem elite made it pointless to vote in the Dem primaries, so a lot of Dems registered as Repubs to vote against Trump in the Repub primary.

Not theory, look at the overhead photos. The shooter was on the far side of the gable roof.

Seems like you ignore the police officers who died or were injured on January 6th. All because of a meglomaniac who refused to accept defeat.

 

Trying to compare it to the huge issues we have with people of color being killed by police is ridiculous. And racist. Guess that you got your information from the Daily Caller?

 

 

did you ever see the body cam footage of Floyd before he was on the ground? was 8 + minutes, where he repeatedly said 'i can't breathe' to the officer while he was sitting in the back of their cruiser, trying to avoid going to jail.
it shows a whole different side to that event and the knee video we all saw.
