No matter your political opinions theres no excuse for cheering on an assassination attempt. Wtf is wrong with you people.
This is terrible for America and terrible for democracy.
What's a BB??
Pretty sure most of that was prior to knowledge of a shooter being shot. It's more the flurry of early discussions. Pretty sure pretty much everyone would agree at this point that there was a shooter.
And to think that the secret service would go along with a staged shooting. Ridiculous stuff
His base were always going to vote for him. Why should this win him votes outside of his base given he has already vowed to reward those on January 6th who wanted to assasinate Pelosi and others with a Presidential pardon?
Well the secret service are going to have serious questions to answer. How the hell did someone get with a weapon within an arses roar of a former president ?
Apt username
TThats not the shooter, thats the Patsi/Fall Guy. The shooters blended into the crowd.
America is going to be a scary place now . This will incite violence unfortunately .
Was watching the rugby earlier,
Andrew Porter and the whole SA 2nd row shed more blood than Donnie.
Edit
Trump was winning this election long before this incident.
Trump supporters will be incredibly motivated now come November, even more than to date. He'll win at a canter.
Two dead and one critical. Very sad. Serious questions around the the security at the event.
Jason Meister on sky basically blames Biden. Meister is an Advisory Board Member of… ‘Donald J. Trump for President’….
Just shows you even in the immediate aftermath the republicans seriously lack class. You’d swear Biden ordered a hit the way he was going on…. Fair play to the sky anchor who was basically ridiculing him.
We should be thankful Trump wasn't assassinated tonight. It could well have sparked off civil war in the US : many of his more extreme supporters are unhinged and would have claimed Biden (or some other part of the 'establishment') had him murdered.
It would be an illegal order and not carried out. Immunity to the person who ordered it (even if applicable,of which I am not convinced) would not stop that, or punishment to whoever attempted to carry it out. There is a lot of false information going around after that ruling.
The Trump supporters are already out with their conspiracy theories that Biden was behind this
I was watching BBC News and there was a witness who was outside the event, partying, saying that him and his friends saw somebody with a rifle crawling along the roof of a building outside the perimeter.
They told the police and security, but they couldn't see yer man at first, because he had gone to the other side of the slanted roof. They eventually got to the shooter, and shot him.
Is that including the shooter?
Alec Baldwin is at a loose end.
Yes, one of the dead is the suspected shooter.
The patsy obviously didn't know he was going to be a patsy! /s
But it's not 'some' people, it was a single person thinking about a conspiracy theory.
I guarantee there will be many a trump supporter thinking it was a conspiracy theory by the Dems to take out Trump etc…
It will be some nutter with a gun that hates Trump, of course Trump will have to admit said individual had the right to bear arms. Or some nutter who was targeting his Ex in the crowd behind Trump!
I know my stuff
By "my opinion" I'm assuming you mean your conspiracy theory?
You can hear Trump asking for his shoes.
How'd he lose his shoes? That's a bigger question.
Yes and that's obviously nonsense. Doesn't mean people should be suggesting insane theories of it being a set up. There's 2 people dead FFS.
the last place you’d expect to find guns would be a maga rally.
Season 3 of "America" has been gripping.
Is life even real, is it a simulation….. I am drunk and starting to suspect I am inside the matrix….
If you don't think the images of him standing up pumping his fist after being shot at played off against the images of Biden in recent months not knowing the name of his VP will sway undecided voters I don't know what else to say
I think people are getting way too excited in July about a November election. People are so ADD at this stage, they will have forgotten about this in a month.
