Attempted assasination on President Trump

20 comments

He’s not the president.
- It's a weird American standard where all ex presidents are referred to as president. So the headline isn't wrong.
- From my understanding, the title of president is permanent. The powers are (supposed to be) temporary
Well I think we can all be certain there won't be any huge downwind effects from this 😐
If he's uninjured then I have to assume this was staged.
- Trump may have a slight injury to his ear.
  For a less conspiratorial take, here's a NYTimes archive / live version :
  
  When the pops began at 6:13 p.m., Mr. Trump appeared to grab his right ear, which appeared to be bleeding as he left the stage.
  
  Here's the cspan footage where you can see it for yourself: https://www.c-span.org/video/?c5123735/shots-fired-trump-rally
  
  Well that clears it up for me! There's just no way Trump would risk himself like that. This was real.
- Do the nut bag rights hate him that much already? Pretty safe to assume no Democrat would do that. They don’t attract those types.
  
  As we all know, 0% of Democrats own guns.
- He was shot by a sniper from a rooftop. Not staged
