Donald Trump speech shooting: Gunshots heard at president’s rally – latest news
Donald Trump has been rushed off the stage after gunshots were heard as he addressed a crowd at a rally in Pennsylvania.
Looks like someone took some shots at prez candidate Donald Trump at a rally in PA. From the videos I've seen, it looks like he did get grazed.
You're viewing a single thread.
Half the comments here are proving that people on the right aren’t the only ones who can indulge in stupid conspiracy theories.
It’s depressing as fuck.
Q-Anon level thinking that somehow Trump is a mastermind of this. The dude who can't hide stolen files properly, can't lie on his taxes properly, and loses money on a casino, somehow has the ability to rig a false flag assassination attempt.
Are NeoLibs that so far into the Kool-Aid that Dipshit Trump is also a grandmaster 5D chess player of this, while not being able to string words together? It's not like he's even been a good actor.
Trump isn't even the mastermind of his own bowel movements. If this was staged it was all planned by his Russian handlers.
Roger Stone would be my guess.
Edit:
I am glad Russia has no experience whatsoever with this type of operations
It's fun to indulge in, and it doesn't change the fact that shit is about to hit the fan, regardless of whether the shooter was someone with a legitimate desire or a paid gunman. Trump was just given and used a golden ticket to both rally republicans to vote for him, and to incite his diehard followers into another insurrection.
Sure, but I don't think being an ironic conspiracy theorist on the levels of Q-Anon is going to make anyone seem better.
Trump was already going to do that. Trump would do it if someone sneezed on him. They already considered him a martyr. They already wanted/have an Enabling Act. The only thing this changes is a bit less blood in him, and 3 people died. Trump already had higher polling numbers.
Fascism is here. Get ready.
It won't make anyone here seem better, I agree. But at the same time, it's not like we're going to have the opportunity to joke around like this after the inevitable happens.
Enjoy life while you still can, you know?
changes is a bit less blood in him
I admit I saw a red fluid on his face.
Yeah there are some real idiots in this thread. Very depressing
It's representative of the current state of this country honestly.
It doesn't take a mastermind. Dictators faking assassination attempts to garner support isn't new.
"All right ear me big sniper guy, it's going to be an attempted assassination, the biggest ever, you are going to shoot me close, like danger close but don't worry I'm the best president, really I'm the best and you are the best sniper, the best sniper in the whole country. So you shoot me near the ear, near enough that blood comes out, I know scary stuff, but we are tough guys, the toughest so you do it and I resist and together we make the best attempted staged assassination ever"

Neoliberals are pro-trump, plan 2025 calls for going after people with student loans
What I find sad is that either option is equally plausible. That's how low we have sunk.
On this topic as a whole, it's also proving people on the left are in favor of gun violence...
Not like it really needs proving. When Marx writes about "revolution," he means bloody, violent revolution.
Anyone advocating revolution needs guns to back it up or else they're just full of hot air.
Elections were meant to be bloodless revolutions. Unfortunately with First Past The Post voting, the right options were not available to vote for. But we can change how we vote. We can make peaceful revolution possible with a more representative electoral system.
Antifascists have a long history of shooting Natzi.
And how! I love the irony tho.
I was thinking the same thing
How do you know their political leanings?
Just quid pro quo.
