As support to my weariness of all this mess, that thought immediately crossed my mind.
I also wasn't particularly impressed with how long it took the Secret Service to "whisk" him off the stage. I'm certainly no expert, but it seemed a bit bumbling to me.
On the plus sign of the shooter's poor aim, since Donny is OK the Giants game that just started on Fox isn't being preempted.
The only positive thing that can happen with this shit is the shooter used an AR -15 and the Repugs will open their eyes assault weapons. But that won't matter most likely.
The gunman believed to have been behind the attempted assassination attempt on former President Donald Trump Saturday was shot and killed by Secret Service, sources told The Post.
The shooter, identified as a Chinese man, was in a sniper position located hundreds of yards away from Trump’s podium in Butler, Pa. as he spoke to a campaign crowd, sources said.
Oh well. Fox is now in full GLORY BE TO DONALD TRUMP mode, so no more baseball game.
For the next four months all we're going to see is that image of him pumping his fist with blood on his face, and hear what a brave, strong, heroic manly man he is, while Sleepy Joe can't say five complete sentences.
I hate to say it, but I think Don the Con just won the election today.
I just got home from seeing Longlegs, a horror flick with Nickolas Cage... then went to safeway, everyone in there seemed like there were in the movie (especially my friend, the manager!)
Come home, turn on the TV, see T grab his ear, then get down, the secret service in action, but minimal reaction from the crowd behind him... that bullet didn't get stopped with that ear lobe near miss, where did it go??? Noone behind him, or more important, to the right the podium seemed to be affected, like getting shot...
Meanwhile on FB, the right is taking up arms, was expecting this, and they're ready to fight like hell for him. The left is putting up humor, and wondering if it was a false flag. (My instant gut reaction was false flag, i'd like to know where the others were who were hit, if off to the right behind T, then that would seem legit).
>>>>"more patriotic than thou crowd(twits) " a louder battle cry.
Lol. The money shot. The MAGA nuts are sure fired up over this and saw some of them on Twitter ranting about how it inspired them to go out and buy even more flags and t-shirts to help convince everyone to vote for Trump. Grifters are going to grift and cultists are going to cult.
Odd how secret service didn't immediately put a compress on the wound or wipe the guy's face off to see if it was an injury when they had him down on the ground?
Why would they let him walk away bleeding with an open wound?
Why didn't they cover him up completely on his way out to avoid a shot by a second shooter?
then heard someone from his left calling for a medic.
Elmore knows first aid and CPR from his time in the military, and he knew a medic wouldn’t be able to reach the cries for help fast enough.
He took off his tie and jumped a barricade, but when he reached the person, Elmore saw he had been shot in the head. Elmore said he held the victim’s head but it was too late. The man was unresponsive.
“I mean, it was a horror,” Elmore said. “I pray to the family that had to deal with this that is going through this now. Because it is hard. It is so hard.”
He said that the shots came from behind the bleachers but did not see the shooter.
An eyewitness outside the rally where former President Donald Trump was injured in a shooting said he saw the gunman climb up a roof and tried to warn police.
“We noticed the guy crawling, bear crawling, up the roof of the building beside us, 50 feet away from us,” the witness told BBC News on Saturday after the incident.
“We’re standing there, we’re pointing at the guy crawling up the roof. … We can clearly see him with a rifle,” he said. He added that they notified police in the vicinity and that officers “didn’t know what was going on.”
“I’m thinking to myself, ‘Why is Trump still speaking? Why have they not pulled him off the stage?’ I’m standing there pointing at him for two, three minutes, Secret Service is looking at us from the top of the barn, I’m pointing at that roof, just standing there like this, and next thing you know, five shots ring out,” he said.
CNN cannot independently verify his account.
John Miller, CNN chief law enforcement and intelligence analyst, said the testimony raises many “serious questions.”
“There’s going to be an extraordinarily, excruciatingly detailed examination about who knew what, how was this communicated, and who determined to take what action or not take what action,” he said.
^^^The cries of deep state involvement are loud on social media. People thinking the secret service let this happen and it was a CIA plot. CIA don't miss. Just ask JFK.
Apparently, some woman pointed out the gunman crawling onto the roof with a rifle to some LEO who did nothing before shots rang out a few moments later.
the shirt the guy is wearing is from a gun related youtube channel called "demolition ranch". here is an IG post from the owner of that channel, using one of the confirmed photos of the shooter, seemingly confirming that he recognizes the shirt as one of his own - https://www.instagram.com/p/C9YthvPuybM/
in the confirmed photo and the unconfirmed gunshot would photo, the blood trails match - one going from under the ear and down his cheek, and two going from above the ear across his forehead.
@scvmlord has several IG pages, all of which seem to be nonpolitical, crime/chaos focused nihilistic sort of stuff. he sells a shirt that says "vote by mail" with a picture of a pipe bomb underneath, and the page seems to exist only to larp about violence and endorse low level crime via a nihilistic viewpoint. he is currently deleting several posts.
I would say 'the most twisted part of this yet to come', but we're all well beyond disbelief, is that gun sales will temporarily increase, donations to the NRA will most likely increase, and there will be no mention of a ban on assault rifles at the upcoming rnc.
Ironic through our national history how the 2nd amendment continues to remain safer and more protected than the potus.
The GOP blaming the incident on Dems use of violent rhetoric is absurd - as Trump himself had threatened so many, and even cheered on Jan 6 insurrectionists and cries to 'hang Mike Pence'. And, their refusal to ban assault weapons. Guess Trump is lucky the kid was a bad shot and didn't use a bump stock
Could have also been an FSB operation to generate sympathy for Putin's favorite puppet and to generally stir up shit. And while I wouldn't put it past Trump to stage a stunt like this to sell t-shirts and play victim, there is also a possibility that this was a John Hinkley/Mark Chapman style nut case with a purely non-political agenda.
As much as any loser who lives at home, is obsessed with guns, and has easy access to AR15 assault type weaponry is a patsy.
BTW, AP reports: Crooks tried out for the school’s rifle team but was turned away because he was a bad shooter
if anyone was going to coerce a "pasty" to assassinate a Presidential candidate they'd be more apt to recruit a better shooter, even if the patsy was only supposed to injure the candidate as part of a false flag operation.
This appears to be more of a lone shooter situation by a pathetic gun nut who desperate for attention.
I'm curious as to Dad's political views and the timing of purchasing the assault weapon. Wouldn't be the first time parents claim they didn't know the kid was building bombs in his bedroom or was obsessed with weaponry.
Fucked up American Gun culture and shitty parenting is to blame. Rinse and Repeat
I got a coin in my palm
I can make it disappear
I got a card up my sleeve
Name it and I’ll pull it out your ear
I got a rabbit in my hat
If you want to come and see
This is what will be, this is what will be
I got shackles on my wrist
Soon I’ll slip ’em and be gone
Chain me in a box in the river
And I’ll rise singin’ this song
Trust none of what you hear
And less of what you see
This is what will be, this is what will be
I got a shiny saw blade
All I needs’ a volunteer
I’ll cut you in half
While you’re smiling ear to ear
And the freedom that you sought’s
Driftin’ like a ghost amongst the trees
This is what will be, this is what will be
Now there’s a fire down below
But it’s comin’ up here
So leave everything you know
And carry only what you fear
On the road the sun is sinkin’ low
There’s bodies hangin’ in the trees
This is what will be, this is what will be
This blows up the whole Deep State conspiracy narrative. If you are going to go out of the way and create an unguarded sniper's nest, get a competent sniper. US infantrymen have to hit a silhouette from 150 yards just to get out of boot camp. That was the same distance the shooter was from Trump, who was a stationary target. Why send in an amateur who failed to qualify for his high schools JV rifle team? Of course, if you wanted to make sure Trump survived, they picked the right guy.
Unless.. the game plan was to just injure Trump and not kill him. And then the conspiracy would be that there was a second shooter who aimed for the ear while the kid takes the blame. And, Trump's 'heroic' fist pump and the way his security detail allowed this instead of whisking him to safety was all staged. Only reason I'm even remotely considering this possibility is that President Bone spurs would be expected to shit his pants if it wasn't rehearsed. Maybe it wasn't a failed assassination attempt but instead a plot to help his campaign
Kid didn't have time to get set. He got surprised by one of the local cops checking out the roof after people reported seeing a guy with a rifle on it. The kid raised his rifle at the cop, who backed down the ladder real quick to get out of sight. The shots were fired moments later. Guess the kid realized that he'd been spotted, rushed to get the shot off, and missed.
It's a shame that three fans of a racist, rapist, convicted felon, wanna-be dictator, and existential threat to democracy were accidentally shot. No doubt.
A bullied kid doesn't return to his school and shoot it up, but instead takes shots at a racist, rapist, convicted felon, wanna-be dictator, and existential threat to democracy.
Satire has become impossible. Guy who runs a pro gun - Demolition Ranch YouTube channel says he's 'shocked and confused' Trump shooter was wearing channel's T-shirt.
They sell - Make Politicians Scared Again hats, which they have removed since the shooting.
>I heard there were local cops in the building that the kid was on
From NYT
>But another possible flaw in the Secret Service’s plans for the campaign rally at the farm show grounds in Butler, Pa., is emerging. The protection agency expected the sizable contingent of officers from local law enforcement agencies to contain any threats outside of the secured zone but assigned almost all those officers to work inside it, according to numerous interviews with local law enforcement and municipal officials.
That article Zooey posted said it hasn't been confirmed if the earache was caused by the bullet or shrapnel. Interesting. Trump used the term earache .

the shirt the guy is wearing is from a gun related youtube channel called "demolition ranch". here is an IG post from the owner of that channel, using one of the confirmed photos of the shooter, seemingly confirming that he recognizes the shirt as one of his own - https://www.instagram.com/p/C9YthvPuybM/
in the confirmed photo and the unconfirmed gunshot would photo, the blood trails match - one going from under the ear and down his cheek, and two going from above the ear across his forehead.
this appears to be his IG page, it is private, but contains the text "16001 Anti-Fascist, @scvmlord made me do it" - https://www.instagram.com/thomas.matthew.crooks/
@scvmlord has several IG pages, all of which seem to be nonpolitical, crime/chaos focused nihilistic sort of stuff. he sells a shirt that says "vote by mail" with a picture of a pipe bomb underneath, and the page seems to exist only to larp about violence and endorse low level crime via a nihilistic viewpoint. he is currently deleting several posts.

I would say 'the most twisted part of this yet to come', but we're all well beyond disbelief, is that gun sales will temporarily increase, donations to the NRA will most likely increase, and there will be no mention of a ban on assault rifles at the upcoming rnc.
Ironic through our national history how the 2nd amendment continues to remain safer and more protected than the potus.

The GOP blaming the incident
The GOP blaming the incident on Dems use of violent rhetoric is absurd - as Trump himself had threatened so many, and even cheered on Jan 6 insurrectionists and cries to 'hang Mike Pence'. And, their refusal to ban assault weapons. Guess Trump is lucky the kid was a bad shot and didn't use a bump stock

Could have also been an FSB operation to generate sympathy for Putin's favorite puppet and to generally stir up shit. And while I wouldn't put it past Trump to stage a stunt like this to sell t-shirts and play victim, there is also a possibility that this was a John Hinkley/Mark Chapman style nut case with a purely non-political agenda.

As much as any loser who lives at home, is obsessed with guns, and has easy access to AR15 assault type weaponry is a patsy.
BTW, AP reports: Crooks tried out for the school’s rifle team but was turned away because he was a bad shooter
if anyone was going to coerce a "pasty" to assassinate a Presidential candidate they'd be more apt to recruit a better shooter, even if the patsy was only supposed to injure the candidate as part of a false flag operation.
This appears to be more of a lone shooter situation by a pathetic gun nut who desperate for attention.
I'm curious as to Dad's political views and the timing of purchasing the assault weapon. Wouldn't be the first time parents claim they didn't know the kid was building bombs in his bedroom or was obsessed with weaponry.
Fucked up American Gun culture and shitty parenting is to blame. Rinse and Repeat

I got a coin in my palm
I got a coin in my palm
I can make it disappear
I got a card up my sleeve
Name it and I’ll pull it out your ear
I got a rabbit in my hat
If you want to come and see
This is what will be, this is what will be
I got shackles on my wrist
Soon I’ll slip ’em and be gone
Chain me in a box in the river
And I’ll rise singin’ this song
Trust none of what you hear
And less of what you see
This is what will be, this is what will be
I got a shiny saw blade
All I needs’ a volunteer
I’ll cut you in half
While you’re smiling ear to ear
And the freedom that you sought’s
Driftin’ like a ghost amongst the trees
This is what will be, this is what will be
Now there’s a fire down below
But it’s comin’ up here
So leave everything you know
And carry only what you fear
On the road the sun is sinkin’ low
There’s bodies hangin’ in the trees
This is what will be, this is what will be

This blows up the whole Deep State conspiracy narrative. If you are going to go out of the way and create an unguarded sniper's nest, get a competent sniper. US infantrymen have to hit a silhouette from 150 yards just to get out of boot camp. That was the same distance the shooter was from Trump, who was a stationary target. Why send in an amateur who failed to qualify for his high schools JV rifle team? Of course, if you wanted to make sure Trump survived, they picked the right guy.
Alec Baldwin wouldn't have missed either.

Unless.. the game plan was to just injure Trump and not kill him. And then the conspiracy would be that there was a second shooter who aimed for the ear while the kid takes the blame. And, Trump's 'heroic' fist pump and the way his security detail allowed this instead of whisking him to safety was all staged. Only reason I'm even remotely considering this possibility is that President Bone spurs would be expected to shit his pants if it wasn't rehearsed. Maybe it wasn't a failed assassination attempt but instead a plot to help his campaign

Kid didn't have time to get set. He got surprised by one of the local cops checking out the roof after people reported seeing a guy with a rifle on it. The kid raised his rifle at the cop, who backed down the ladder real quick to get out of sight. The shots were fired moments later. Guess the kid realized that he'd been spotted, rushed to get the shot off, and missed.

From NYT
>But another possible flaw in the Secret Service’s plans for the campaign rally at the farm show grounds in Butler, Pa., is emerging. The protection agency expected the sizable contingent of officers from local law enforcement agencies to contain any threats outside of the secured zone but assigned almost all those officers to work inside it, according to numerous interviews with local law enforcement and municipal officials.
