and Trump was busy looking for his shoes and exposing his body while the SS was trying to shield him.
Why didn't he have his shoes on? Did he take them off before this happened because his feet hurt?

That "all clear" was likely a signal Trump can be moved to van, not that there was not a second shooter.

Protectees are told to let the SS do their job. Trump ignored that order.
Well, as a lifetime thick head he's not used to taking orders. Loves to give them. He's a confused motherfucker, we know that. But self doubt is not something he will indulge. Thinking he has all the answers is his religion and he'll stick by it and let you know. Maybe on his deathbed he'll give it up.

I can confidently say, after seeing SOME of the guy's social media/internet presence, that he was in fact, a shitty human being. Basically, Ashli Babbit minus the actual criminal offense.

And, as others have posted, there was literally no time to "jump on the family" to be a hero. Sounds like the typical BS after something tragic where people attempt to paint the victim in the best light that they can.
Then he deserved to die. You win?

It's okay to say true things even if they make people sad. Looks like he was a bad person and it seems unlikely he was trying to protect his family.

It doesn't mean he deserved to die but again, it's ok to say things that are true.

For the near priceless photo op.
Yep. He finally got that 'tough guy' shot he's been wanting so, so badly.

Not to take away from this being a terrible thing, but it says something that his first thought was the photo op and not that he could still be in danger.

I do agree with the guy who said the person in charge of setting up security for the event totally fucked up. Could he have been part of a plot to assassinate Trump? I suppose that is actually possible. However, Crooks would be a lousy choice. Aiming for the head was a rookie mistake.

Now, that woman putting on her sunglasses? Trying to look cool? I don't think so. Maybe she needed them, Rx you know. If it were me, I would be pretty useless without Rx glasses on.
Maybe he figured, "Lee Harvey Oswald did it, so can I". Also, Trump likely wears a vest, so a head shot maybe the only thing available.

Tie up dress shows don't come off just because someone shoves you to the ground. He must have taken them off in advance.

The press has been going "new tone" again lately lol. Having a political press that is totally incapable or unwilling to learn is truly amazing.
The political press is full of both sides nincompoops who claim to have no agency and just report things, but time and time again show that they in fact drive narratives and love to create the impression of horse races to sell clicks. They have no concept about the gravity of the situation or the damage that their inept reporting continually does.

What in the Democratic old tone EVER called for political violence. Maybe the press should chew on that!

There is an existential threat to Democracy in a candidate who has told everyone he will be a day one dictator.

Trump is going to eventually get his followers crazed enough to start trying to kill them and we're going to get pieces about how Democrats did not successfully "lower the political temperature". Or they alternatively they'll be penning these pieces from federal jail if they ever displease a future President Trump.

"Let us come together to END all Weaponization of our justice system, and Make America Great Again!"

This from the guy who said “Look, when this election is over, based on what they’ve done, I would have every right to go after them, and it would be easy because it’s Joe Biden.”

Pre-shooting Trump: Vengeance.

Post-shooting Trump: Vengeance with unity.
Lol on top of this. Orange monkey defender on documents dismissal. Once the people vote him back into office in November, Biden has to pardon away these indictments to heal the country.

Republicans are flat out lying in their call for unity. Biden did the right thing before we knew the identity of the shooter. Trump campaign and Republicans initially blamed it on leftist Dems. Republicans have now come out with this unity thing after the shooter has been identified as a registered Republican who looks like a white nationalist.

Press hasn't figured out this is not a both sides thing. By that frame they are giving Trump a pass.

Like my example I've used numerous times, Dems go 5 mph over the speed limit. Trump and the GOP go 50 mph over the speed limit and the press say both are guilty of speeding.
