  1. To be honest, I'm starting to circle back on my idea that this was all a sham "assassination" attempt to drum up additional support for their God-like leader. I had a post on Saturday that went something like this: TRUMP STAFFER: "Um, sir, in order to pull this off and make it look as real as possible we're going to have to actually kill one or two rally attendees." TRUMP: "And?" Hey, it's no sillier than the alt-right's Q-inspired whack-a-doodle conspiracy theories. Hell, I'm seeing reasonably intelligent -- misguided or poisoned, of course -- people on social media claiming this was all on Biden's orders and the SS stood down to allow it to happen. (Forget the fact the shooter Biden and the "Deep State" chose was booted from his HS rifle team for being such a terrible shot.)
  2. Smacked his head on the podium as he quickly ducked down to avoid the gunfire?
  3. Trump apparently wanted to go back up to the lectern a few mins later to announce to the crowd that he was OK.
  4. The “retired firefighter” appears to have been a run-of-the-mill MAGAt POS.
  5. Well, he can take solace now in never taking GF’s dad’s word about any political shit at face value any longer.
  6. His dad is 53, I believe. The guy in Pittsburgh is 69, perhaps another relative but not the shooter's dad.
  7. I still wonder if he actually hit Trump or if he hit the teleprompter and that shattered and cut Trump. I know Trump has said he was shot and that certainly sounds much cooler than getting hit with teleprompter shrapnel.
  8. SIAP but CNN reporting Crooks was observed acting strangely around the magnetometers surrounding the rally in the mins before the attack. Hadn’t seen this info.
  9. I’ll be nice. The initial reporting is wrong. The 20-year-old Crooks is the one who shot at Trumps and is now deceased. He’s a registered Republican. There is another man with the exact same name, who lives in Pittsburgh and gave $15 to the Democratic PAC. Dead Crooks didn’t vote in 2016 or 2020 elections as he was not 18 for those elections — this part hasn’t been reported anywhere or you misheard something.
  10. TRUMP STAFFER: “Mr (former) President, in order for this to work we will have to actually kill one or two event attendees.” TRUMP: ”And?”
  11. They were probably of the “tactical” variety
  12. One photo of dead shooter appeared to show he was wearing shorts. Don’t see many LE rocking shorts-pants on duty.
  13. Not unlike the 2A/MAGA folks who bog down discussions following mass school shootings, right?
  14. Yes, this is why none of the people directly behind Trump took the stray shots.
  15. Agreed. As of this exact moment, you’re absolutely correct. However, if he’d been killed yesterday and this was the powder-keg moment that ignited a bloody civil war leading to the demise of the US as we know it, it would quickly move up.
  16. Bull fucking shit yourself. Openly wishing he’d do us a favor and die of natural causes — I’m sure the MAGA kooks would cook up some conspiracy yarn, though — is not the same as wishing the man would be killed by a member of his own political party.
  17. MSNBC had a former HS classmate on a little while ago to say shooter was a loner in HS who was bullied and picked on pretty badly. Shocker.
  18. This shooter better really end up a registered (if not a real) Republican because I’ve gone full scorched earth on MAGA shit-heads (fandoms and HS friends) on Twitter and Facebook tonight/this morning.
  19. Wasn’t Barron front and center at an event the other night? He’s pot committed even if mommy’s not.
  20. This would be delicious irony. Please let this be true.
  21. Or maybe Trump is a ginormous asshole.
