    A lot of deep haters here in the comments. Trump derangement syndrome is live and well in many coddled minds. I was a Trump fan back then but I realized that Trump was not getting anything done as president that Trump campaigned on during 2016 and ever since then, was no longer a fan and was quite dissapointed. Came to realize Trump was an egomaniac at best.

    However I do not wish for voilence. I do not see him as a good option as president in 2024 due to his track record of getting nothing done during his first term. However for lefties to hate Trump because “The TV told me so” and being spoon fed with the opinion that “Trump is the next Hitler” is such mental gymastics. Look lefties, Trump is not a threat to your woke agenda, he did not drain the swamp in 2017, he hired the swamp. I am sure if he wins in 2024, he will hire the swamp in 2025 again and it will just be four years of fuck all nothing.

    Chill the fuck out.

    Are we placing bets on this being entirely staged?

    Edit: Clearly, given the evidence now, that’s a bet I would have lost.

      Yes it’s stage. Because we all know. If you going to staged an assassination. You do a head shot. 🤦‍♂️

    Tecumseh’s curse is coming back.

    It stumbled in 1980, as Reagan was shot, but survived. George W Bush wasn’t affected. Now Trump has been shot, but survived.

    It’s gonna kill whoever is president in 2040.

    Biden’s official statement:

    https://www.whitehouse.gov/briefing-room/statements-releases/2024/07/13/statement-from-president-joe-biden-6/

    He’s in a video conference now.

    "I have been briefed on the shooting at Donald Trump’s rally in Pennsylvania.

    I’m grateful to hear that he’s safe and doing well. I’m praying for him and his family and for all those who were at the rally, as we await further information.

    Jill and I are grateful to the Secret Service for getting him to safety. There’s no place for this kind of violence in America. We must unite as one nation to condemn it."

      You know what’s sad about this?

      If the roles were reversed, Trump would be offering the shooter a posthumous pardon and probably a medal. And no, I’m not joking. Trump would never be seen giving someone else the respect he demands from others.
