The idea that it’s a false flag is ridiculous, absent a lot of evidence otherwise.

Of course it is but since reality doesn’t matter, I’m preemptively countering the rights narrative that will surely come out that will be equally ridiculous. You are welcome.

Regardless of my opinions of Trump... any individual, group or political party that would do this, condone it or take any joy at all in this act is my enemy and enemy of the country.
You wouldn't enjoy seeing pure evil die? That's pretty sadistic of you

When I took a good look at the people behind Trump who may have been in the line of fire, I didn't see a single one of them behaving as if they were hit which is weird considering how many shots were fired in his direction. Something doesn't add up. Plus, the blood on his face seems to indicate that the shot that clipped his ear came from behind him.

edit - OK, after another clearer review I saw a puff of mist exiting behind Trump's head indicating shot came from his right side at an obtuse angle to his face.

We're going to have:

Conspiracy theories galore.
Anodyne statements from elected officials.
Trumpists ranting and raving and raising money off the event.

I am so far unpersuaded that undecided voters really care about the physical well being of Donald Trump.

Judging by the crowds reaction it looks like it might have come from the left side and possibly behind him.

I condemn this in the largest possible terms. This is not the way to do things. I’m not gonna lie, between this and the Biden kerfuffle, it feels like the wheels are coming off this thing we call US politics. This election is insane. Even 12 months ago this election was unprecedented in so many ways. Now I legitimately have no idea who’s going to win, and can’t guess what’s going to happen either way.

While I would never support assassination I think we would both agree that Trump is an awful person who should never be responsible for anything.
To quote the NC Republican Gubernatorial candidate, Mark Robinson, "some folks need killing"

If anything it would be a get out the vote for his base.

Thoughts? maybe
Prayers? unlikely?
Votes? Who besides the cult?

Be ready for a Donald Trump Presidency, with a vengeance and emergency powers. Oh, it is going to be bloody ..

Now it's being reported that two people are dead, one of them the shooter.

This is what happens when you have a class of people above the law, especially if they want to be in charge. America doesn't do kings and we're supposed to have laws that prevent it.

If the law fails, people will resort to a different method. Trump was a disaster, represents an existential threat to our democracy. Not saying I agree with an assassination attempt, just that I understand it.

Then again, I also wouldn't be surprised if this had been orchestrated. Sounds a little hokey. Not like he's going to win a race on policy or telling the truth, right? He's been trying to sell a Biden/FBI/DoJ assassination plot against him for awhile now. Trump trying to act like Teddy Roosevelt here when he's scared of stairs, birds, protests or someone rushing the stage seems pretty out of character.

May whatever really happened be uncovered and the right people be brought to non republican justice.

Should Biden address the nation tonight?

If I’m a foreign adversary, I’d certainly be trying to light the match to get this fire going.
