    He’s conflating the media reporting that members of trumps staff said he praised Hitler with the media “calling him Hitler.”

    It’s again projecting a fantasy from a snivel of truth. A truth that is inconvenient to them.

    Again on the notion that the left/media is being mean to Trump by saying he’s running to destroy Democracy, is looking past Trumps own admission that he wants to overturn Democracy and has done so before and praises the Supreme Court ruling giving him absolutely immunity (aka dictator powers).

    This guy is demanding we lie to ourselves about the truth that is right in front of our faces, and wants us to feel responsibility for this violent attempt.

    Yeah… screw that. This changes nothing about what we should do about Trump and trumpism. It’s actually a bigger threat today than it was yesterday and the stakes of the election just got bigger. This 20 year old moron just gave Trump and his nutty supporters everything they wanted.

    Say what you want about Trump but the guy continues to fail up every single time he gets a chance in his life. He does something terrible, hurts people, and then gets rewarded for it every time. To say that life isn’t fair the understatement of the year.

    Expectations of people are like the quality of goods that are mostly made in China these days, lowered.

    Hitler didn't make Germany evil. He reflected his nation.

    Trump will win on emotion and prejudice. I have yet to hear or read one decent and logical reason for voting for him.

    Those are questions to ask. They aren't evidence of anything. Unless you were there and interview those that were there and in charge of security you simply don't know the answers to those questions.

    If that was understood, then people should stop crying about the media saying mean things about him.

    He said it, and he tried to overturn tens of millions of democratic votes from the election. He also suggested shooting anti-Trump protestors. Reporting those things isn't unfair.

    This is a confirmed Trump hating nutjob here on this board. She has a near miss celebration yesterday because of the failed attempt. These clowns are so damn unhinged and deranged because of the levels of hatred that they have towards President Trump.

    I have laid out numerous long form posts detailing this logic. Some of the highlights below:

    Peace through strength
    Lower Inflation
    Lower Taxes
    Supportive Energy Policy
    Secure border
    Demolish de facto 4th branch of government - the Administrative State, which is unelected and therefore unaccountable. Restore democratic principles in the process (voting determines direction/leadership)

    1. Understood. They were Trump's words.
    2. He went after Hillary and Biden and also tried to pressure Ukraine to do it.
    3. The votes have been audited, recounted and investigated. He had the chance to put forward his case and tried. The votes were legit. Putting forward fake electors in an effort to discount the votes in order to stay in power against the will of the people is undemocratic, and dictatorial.

    The fact that he failed, doesn't mean he didn't try. It doesn't mean he would fail the next time.

    You should think about evidence actually is. Laughing about 81 million votes isn't evidence of anything.

    There was a time when people were mad about the media talking crap about Trump but that was years ago.

    I do not in any way think this was an inside job.
    If it was they would have had a much better sapper on the end of that trigger.
    Just saying.

    To the MAGA guys here:

    Just want to remind you that the Supreme Court ruling that you guys were thrilled about the other day would actually have made it perfectly legally or given immunity to Joe Biden IF he would have been the guy who personally hired this 20 year old to assassinate Trump. As long as Joe Biden hired this 20 year old an “official” title in government, Joe Biden is allowed as president to hire this kid to assassinate Trump and the only thing that could be done about it is relying on a Democratic controlled Senate to impeach Biden.

    Astrodome, Commodore, Os Trig, etc… do you guys want to use this moment to maybe change your mind about what the Supreme Court has done to drive a stake through our Democracy??

    Again, Joe Biden could have been the one who hired this assassin and given him the orders, and as long as Biden gave him a title in government, this assassination would be immune from current or future prosecution.

    You guys feel good about that??!

    Go look at the footage.a

    The only reason Trump isn't dead is because he slightly turned his head.

    A 150 yd shot is a shot you or I could make without a scope. Ask yourself why that building was not only not secure but had a ladder out so the shooter had easy access to the roof. Also why did the counter Secret Service snipers wait until after the shooter took the shot to take the shooter out? They had the shooter in their sights before the shooter took multiple shots. Tell me with this said how the shooter managed to get off one shot, much less multiple shots. Something is very wrong here.

    This does not make his policy proposals suddenly acceptable solutions to our shared problems. George Wallace was nearly assassinated and that didn't give him a free pass to the White House.

    This is an awful escalation of our poisonous national rhetoric. I'm glad Trump is alive and that the shooter is dead. But it doesn't mean I think he is fit or deserves to lead this country again.

    What policy decisions has trump announced. Something about building a wall which he didn't do. Something about some healthcare plan which he didn't do. He cut taxes which is just the standard republican platform which probably is a big reason the deficit spiked and caused a bunch of inflation.The only way to lower that would be to cut SS or Medicare which is political suicide for the republican party since old people tend to vote and those are two of biggest costs for the government.

    I shake my head at people who say this is an inside job or deep state or antifa...........you have to have a reason why this happened and you don't look at the obvious, some people don't deserve to have guns. Half the country hates trump but no one (with a sane mind) wants him assassinated..............so just like after all the horrendous shooting of kids around the US I leave you with one phrase folks like Cruz makes every time this happens........thoughts and prayers ya`ll, thoughts and prayers

    It boggles my mind that the cult always has to have a boogey man when something doesn't go right for them........everything is a conspiracy :rolleyes:

    The big question this coming week or one of them will be this...

    Has Trump garnered sympathy for this to matter politically?

    It seems he seriously has not. He's spent his life being a bully and a terrible person quite frankly and I'm not sure the calculus of this means some kind of election boost like the attempt on Whitmer's life (using a more recent comparison). The whole "This fires up his base." narrative isn't getting to me, his base is always fired up. It's what makes him strong because his base shows out desperately hoping that he's the one to drag the country back to the 1950s.

    The question is will it sway independents to vote for him? I seriously doubt it. Democrats issue right now is that their base is not as motivated to vote and that they can't motivate undecideds to vote for them...but those in the middle already sworn off Trump. If they think he's a danger to the country I don't see how this changes anything.

    I posit actually that this might hurt Trump. If the election becomes "Unity" Biden plays better on that field of play. The GOP can't simultaneously say "We need to turn down the rhetoric" then run the same campaign. Trump is not a unity president and he's never pretended to be. He's demonized democrats constantly, even retweeting that democrats should be dead.

    It's far too off to really matter. A week before the election, yeah, it'd be a huge deal. Now though? Lol we're not even sure who might be the DNCs candidate and the narrative for the shooting will change. If both sides try to turn the temp down to present themselves as 'unity' candidates I'm not sure how well Trump plays into that too.
