media certainly hasnt helped but trump himself is so divisive, this was really inevitable
apparently Trump was playing golf the next day. Personally think this won’t have the impact many imagined it would. He was shot at by one of his own using the republican gun of choice in an open carry state. In saying that the secret service will still have questions to answer.
very likely seals his victory in november, so…..
…secret service royally fcuked up alright…..
I think he is too dumb/young to be part of a masterplan but I'd bet social media like TikTok played a part though we probably wouldnt be told as there will be no direct cause and effect just a bunch of influences that nudged him
So it looks like the shooter is a bit complex, we'll have to wait for something else to happen to score a point against the other team. For now we will have to make do with the usual tinfoil from both sides as they just ask questions..
Registered Republican, at 20yrs old he won't have been old enough to vote in past elections …….was he a 'newly' registered Republican to vote against Trump …… he wasn't a fan by all accounts
Seems reasonable. I voted in the Republican primary for that reason: There didn't seem to be any particular purpose in voting in the Democrat primary.
I wouldn’t be so sure.
Not really that accurate. Trump is a threat to the world.
Stuff America, it's a basket case. Things will only improve when America starts supplying their precious guns with the welfare cheques, so that everyone can afford to be true constitution following Americans.
"Shot at by one of his own" ?
Do you think Trump considers the shooter one of his own? Do you think the shooter considered Trump one of his own?
Where do you get this association. Actions speak louder than words, this kid is not buddies with Trump regardless of how much you've been taught to blame anything and everything on right or Trump. Arguing this kid was pro Trump is just absurd gas lighting.
Imagine having your death unite and propel upward the reputation and success of your worst enemy all in the one day?
If only he was alive to see the tremendous c*clip he made.
Well this shows how much of a **** show it was 2 minutes the shooter was spotted and Secret Service/police did nothing,
What accounts, where?
Can you list out these threats? you could start a thread and tick them off as we go?
I don’t think the SS have been doing much of anything since 1945
Oh I can answer that
Yep Donald Ducked but Joe might be too sleepy and lack enough animation.
As in a republican and not a democrat, antifa loon or trans activist (take your pick) which Trump and the GOP were probably wishing for. Calm down.
Hahahaha. Is Fox News part of the fake news lamestream media now? Your cult is hilarious at times.
So you don't participate on that thread but maybe the Irish posters on the Trump thread you would say the same about them for spending days months years posting their hatred of Donald Trump ? Or you only have issue with anyone who speaks up for Trump? It can't be both ways now can it?
Btw Trump has Doonbeg so he does provide jobs and employment in Ireland!
A header with a rifle is a header.
I hope he is republican because if it turned out he was a democrat we would likely see more brain dead comments from republicans with some seeking revenge, like this buffoon.
I think you would find that Trump, at least, did not wish anyone for anyone to shoot at his head.
We understand that he wasn’t a fan of Trump alright, considering he, well, shot the fella. But there are suggestions he was leaning republican, summarised earlier in the thread.

But as a convicted felon he is not eligible to travel to Ireland, not that he would be welcome here anyway.
dunno, Alex Jones and a fella were saying a few months ago the best way for Republicans to win 2024 is to kill Trump.
For all we know the killer loved him and wanted him martyred for the cause.
Admires Putin.
Stated he would be fine with Russia invading NATO countries who hadn't paid their bills.
Had unofficial meeting with Viktor Orban, (which he had no business having), who had come straight from meeting Putin.
Said he would be a dictator, 'for just one day'.
Claims he knows nothing about project 2025, but agrees with some of it.
Apparently that is common practice. (I don't know if that is true). That they can't open fire on a suspect until they open fire first.
It's hard to know truth from fiction, but I have heard it said he (the Secret Service guy who had a direct line of sight on the suspect before he shot) was waiting for instruction that didn't come…
How Trump wasn't evacuated in that time is a mystery that we will never know the answer to…
1 How did the young fella manage to evade security and find himself in the best possible position to strike Trump.
2 How come the Secret Service guy who obviously saw the suspect did not shoot first.
There is some amount of f##k ups to find ourselves in that situation, I'd imagine Trump gets multiple death threats on a daily basis…so it's not like he wasn't a security risk.
The head of the Secret Service should step down immediately, what was visible to the world is how incompetent the Secret Service were before and after the shooting. Her reputation should be in tatters at this point.
