Trump 47

Donald Trump seems to still suffer a condition called the “disowned self.” At the slightest criticism of his conduct or policies, he projects others as “crazy” or “corrupt .” For instance, who picks day long fights with the Pope for quoting Jesus,”Blessed are the peacemakers.”

Trump is in over his head.

I’m very much not a conspiracy theorist generally. But, this is awful weird. I'm seriously considering that the assasination attmept was bogus. I can see journalists possibly moving into the area of risk with an active shooter. But the secret service having him on the ground then letting him get up and holding him in place for an easy head shot? And, whether lowered or not the flag hanging perfectly in place for the photo? Then, the SS agent in charge that day is now the Director of the Secret Service. Extremely fishy.

Compare that to the actions of the secret service when the attempt on Reagan occurred:

It was 100% staged. Anybody who thinks trump wouldn't sacrifice some random dudes life to win is, IMO, an idiot. He would have killed the entire crowd himself if he thought it would help his chances.

What would you do if you were in the crowd and a gunman started shooting? Stand there cheering like an maniac, or duck and run?

This sort of argues against it unless a Pulitzer prize winning NYT photographer was in on it also.
I'm not a photographer but I do wonder why he happened to be shooting with such a high shutter speed for a speech which is not fast action.

i supposed whoever took the shot could have been told to miss him by a foot or two. That 2-D photo cannot show where the bullet went.

Doug Mills, a veteran photographer for The New York Times, was only a few feet away from former President Donald J. Trump at the rally in Butler, Pa., when the shooting started. Mr. Mills kept his finger on the shutter button, photographing as the scene unfolded. It was only afterward, while...

"i supposed whoever took the shot could have been told to miss him by a foot or two."

This is where I have a hard time believing it was totally staged. Too many things can go wrong if the goal is to miss by a foot or two. Is there any evidence, besides the ear, of the bullets path?

Just full on racism for an elected GOP official on live TV

"The average IQ in Somalia hovers around 70, and that's the threshold for mentally handicapped ... they're a net drain on the society" -- even by MAGA standards, the unvarnished racism of this interview of Rep. Brandon Gill by Benny Johnson is breathtaking

Yea, I'm not ready to declare it 100%. I am ready to say that I am typically the first in line to call BS on conspiracies because typically they just don't make sense.

But, the actions of the secret service don't make sense. I was just a lowly infantry soldier. But I know you are taught by sheer repetition what to do at critical moments. The idea that all those SS agents just oopsed and decided to let the person they were supposed to protect with their lives stand up and shake his fist is unbelievable. If not a fake, we have to realize the fact that one man has complete control of the government to the point that even the Secret Service won't cross him during an active shooter.
