This will energize his base and he will win the election. It will also mean Republican domination of the House and Senate. The next two years will be a clusterfuck as normal and barriers are demolished and regular people begin to realize they've elected fascism. The midterms will begin to look like a blue wave, but then they will point back to moments like this to declare the Democratic party "illegitimate" and remove them from ballot access, if midterm elections happen at all.
This is the end of any semblance of democracy in the US for at least a generation.
Oh look. Face-eating leopards.
Yeah: gotta be crisis actors, if Alex Jones taught us anything, right?
When it comes to the Republican party, every accusation has been an admission. It would be ridiculously on-brand to stage an assassination attempt. Just watch the response and tell me it isn't for show.
This photo may have (unfortunately) won him the race.
Nah, fuck that. Vote.
It's incredible people are down voting you because they don't like this thought. Y'all know how America is right? If this is all real, his approval numbers likely grow and his base gets fired up. Reagan got a bump back in the day.
You don't have to like that, but it's not misinformation to speculate on how this plays out. These images will be used for the rest of this race.
No, it's just a bullshit argument in this election. The electorate is viscerally polarized, and very few people are in the fence about who to vote for - maybe some undecided about whether they'll vote at all. I can't imagine there are many people who are going to switch from Biden to Trump because of this, or who will even go from undecided to Trump. It makes no sense.
On the other hand, Trump is going to fundraise the crap out of that picture, and it will squeeze lots more money out of his base.
Fuck.
I viscerally hate the guy, but:
Murder is just wrong, and political violence isn't better when liberals do it than conservatives
We don't need him to become a martyr
If he's dead, we'll never get a court ruling on his crimes
Never? You wouldn't take a shot at Hitler? I mean, Hitler did.
Yeah, but also some reports that he donated to a liberal organization.

Christ, his poll numbers were already daunting, but now this?
$10 says staged. Perfect location, perfect timing, perfect day of the week.
No good will come of this.
