What rhetoric caused the violence that caused an Assassination attempt on Trump? Probably those who call him Hitler and say he's a threat to Democracy

Posted By Greg Shaffer

We know exactly what motivated this kid.....The same thing that has motivated every shooter. Insanity......

The Deniers: Guess Who?

Posted By Greg Shaffer

100 trillion dollars over 10 years for a potential 1/2 degree lower average temp? Or some other ridiculous premise. Good luck with that.....

Still No Medical Report On Trump's Ear: Shards Of Glass?

So the slowed down video circulating that actually shows the bullet and its path is a fake? Got it lol

...Dual cognitive tests - split screen, each candidate in a sound proof room.  I'm on board!  That would be TV worth watching!

Still not sure why bullet v. shard matters.  A man died.  Trump was missed by inches or millimeters.  What is the point of the bullet v. shard thing?   The story is an assassination attempt, a tragedy for the deceased and a once in a generation security lapse.

You are aware that some on the rabid right think the lax security was intentional?  I do not think that.  I think gross, lose your job grade incompetence is underlying the security failures, not malfeasance.  But the Secret Service sure made it easy for the conspiracy nuts to spin themselves into high gear.

I will call that a debatable point.....regarding laxness.

What isnt debatable is whether the head of the SS should be GONE......using excuses like the roof the shooter was on was dangerously steep. I saw it, I could run on that roof LOL

Still No Medical Report On Trump's Ear: Shards Of Glass?

Posted By Greg Shaffer

And once again what about the video that captures the bullets in flight? They have now images that capture 2 bullets flying by Trump's head, one on the left and one on the right. One of which hit him in the ear.

I personally dont think the official reports are anywhere near accurate......There are definitely a LOT of things that dont make sense. I suspect the fact that Trump didnt die threw some serious monkeys in the works.

Addressing both Rod and Dave.

No.....a 22 caliber sized bullet is going to do pretty much the same damage whether its traveling under 1000 ft per sec or over 3000 ft per sec since there is no volume of meat to damage with an ear......in fact depending on where it hit the ear it could be nothing more than a 22 cal hole. Sort of like using a paper punch lol Think of it this way. Shoot a .22 rifle or a .223 AR at a pc of cardboard. What you get is a 22 caliber hole, neither will blow up the cardboard.....

I have no doubt many of the same theories and questions would arise regardless of who got shot.....

The bottom line is they have images that capture the bullets in flight......exit the silly glass shard claims in the face of hard evidence. Those promoting the glass shard are simply trying to discredit Trump with a lie.

I do agree it matters little whether it was a bullet or a glass shard in the grand scheme of things.....bottom line is it was an assassination attempt.

There is a lot going on that has yet to be unpacked in my opinion...... I hope the full truth comes out whatever it is.

Ohh and I just saw where the head of the SS is likely to resign by Monday......dont blame her, she should be FIRED.

Biden drops out!

Posted By Greg Shaffer

So ultimately there is light at the end of the tunnel......That puppet err I mean Biden should never have been President in the 1st place and spent his entire term proving it.

I have grown to appreciate Trump's brutality more than I expected......

I just genuinely hope we dont end up with Kamala. I can hear Trump now in a debate with her....."She got where she is on her knees, will she run the country from her knees as well?" lol

Kamala Harris smashes fundraising record with stunning $81 million haul over 24 hours

Posted By Greg Shaffer

Have you folks seen some of the gobbledygook that comes out of her mouth in interviews and speeches? Literally nonsensical....not to mention she is way FAR left of where Joe ever was.....

When have you EVER seen me say I am a huge fan of Trumps?  I still say he is his own worst enemy..... That said, at least you know what he is saying......not so much with her.
