    Mt point was that actions such as abolishing USAID and the closure of Hormuz (the latter being an entirely predictable result of Trump's war) are almost certain to result in very large numbers of deaths. I know that we don't have any definite count (yet), but the reckess and predictable effects of Trump's actions put him in the top ranks of killers.

    Would it be that difficult to figure out nowadays.

    ID the shooter, look at their socials. Many of these far left crack pots want to be indentified as the shooter and their warped idealogy shared.

    he said it happens to the presidents who achieve the most, referring to Abraham Lincoln, said again how he turned America into the hottest country in the world after they were a laughing stock under Biden etc etc

    Ah, Newsom territory. By next week they'll be blaming Newsom for this "attack" for being "weak on crime". It's laughably predictable.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,298 ✭✭✭InAtFullBack


    Very true. What's depressing is that alot of folk on the left refuse to acknowledge that there is even an existence of far-left let alone that the far-left position is a very dangerous and violent problem. Evidence of the refusal to acknowledge is seen by how they deflected from it by calling events like this 'staged' and 'fake'.

    Donnie will want at least 12 assassination plots against him now after unknowningly paying Obama a backhanded compliment .

    The lunatic far left at it again.Sad really that some people are so wrapped up in politics they turn to violence,of course we've constantly heard about the supposed threat of the far right but yet strangely the media never wants to call out the far left and the amount of loons they have created and encouraged over the past decade.Really not a good thing that people can't accept a democratic decision irrespective of how much of a **** Trump might be and just move on with their lives.

    It's people who are completely obsessed with politics are a massive problem , people who's main hobby in life appears to be hating people who's politics they disagree with , this thread is somewhat an example of that, people who despise a man yet one of their main hobbies in life appears to be following his every move and reading everything they can about him, the more rational thing to do when you dislike someone that much is to try and avoid them and get on with your life.If this guy has just had more of a life and had some real hobbies he probably wouldn't have become so twisted.

    Yep we all remember as Joe Biden egged on that insurrection. There was also a MAGA guy who plotted to kill Biden back in 2023. Then there's Charlottesville(good people on both sides though), the proud boys. That's not to mention civilian killings by ICE and Trump declared each victim a terrorist. MAGA has plenty of violence that is backed by the actual president. Other notably far right attacks include the Boogaloo Murders, the Buffalo Supermarket attacks. Both had motivations that align with MAGA politically.

    The US currently has a far right president who has egged on political violence. He's befriended the proud boys, said there were some good people at the White supremacist rallies. Has egged on hatred of minorities and pushed racist conspiracy theories. So it's reasonable that most think the far right is a far bigger problem in the US and the entire globe is suffering because of it.

    Strange how Trump fans rarely seem to even attempt to discuss the **** storm he's created throughout his presidency but at the opportunity to rant about the far left, they surface.

    I see the rapist fraudster liar conman misogynist adulterer grifter Trump sympathisers are out this morning erecting the barricades. 🙄

    Tell us, if it is not a staging, why would secret service evacuate the VP several seconds before POTUS? ISn't for the same reason they let him reach for the sky when he was shot in the ear with a pretend bullet?

    You missed warmonger

    The initial reports are a gay democrat, but I wouldn't be surprised if digging deeper shows a different past.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,918 ✭✭✭Jack Daw


    I think Trump is a terrible president ,continual **** decisions after another but that's democracy for you ,you have to just live with it and beat them at the ballot box

    Instead we have leftists all over the world demonising anyone who even mildly right wing and essentially describing them as less than human and evil at times because they don't share the same politics as them.

    Alot of people have refused toacknowledge that alot of left wing rhetoric in recent years has been incredibly toxic and they're just as bad as the far right they decry.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,090 ✭✭✭eightieschewbaccy


    Never disputed the ballot box. My point is he is far right. He has egged on political violence. He has egged on every form of bigotry going. Just because he's elected doesn't mean he isn't a real world threat. He's targeted his political enemies and has tried to get phony prosecutions against them. He's declared people who were murdered by ICE to be terrorists. Plus illegal deportations etc. The greatest threat to democracy in the US at the moment is Trump and the US is a democracy in decline.

    You're trying to claim some victimhood for the right in the vaguest of terms. To use an example, people despise Orban. Not simply because he's right wing and people are globally happy to see Magyar replace him who is not left wing.

    On the other hand, if you're trying to play to the same tune as Trump. Then you probably deserve derision. The best examples I can think of right now is Garage who is more than simply right wing. He's a right wing extremist racist.(That goes back to his school days)

    Its quite ironic that you have a thread of people foaming at the mouth calling for the U.S president to be assassinated but then when an assassination attempt occurs they call it "Staged" & "fake"

    I've lost count of how many assassination attempts have been labelled as staged on this thread. In fact, according to many posters here, they have never acknowledged a single assassination attempt as being genuine.

    That alone should be a wake up call for them.

    When your entire day is obsession about Trump morning, noon and night you need to reevaluate.

    I don't support Trump being murdered. The day he passes of natural causes, I'd suspect a lot of people will be celebrating globally though. Given the global impact he is currently having, most people have pretty strong feelings on him and they're largely negative.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2, Paid Member Posts: 6,249 ✭✭✭Widdensushi


    I am guessing the assassin will be executed.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,702 ✭✭✭FAILSAFE 00


    So an assassination attempt at the White House correspondents dinner doesn't meet your insanely high bar as being labelled as political violence 🙄



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2, Paid Member Posts: 18,065 ✭✭✭✭astrofool


    You can use your fingers to count if you have trouble with it.

    But even trump is calling the guy a whacko and being quite subdued about the whole thing.

    When you're here getting riled up about the mess ups in Iran, the alcoholic FBI chief, the continued firings of the best people or the name calling, then some of your points might be taken seriously.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,090 ✭✭✭eightieschewbaccy


    You seem to be dodging the fact that there's plenty violence associated with MAGA and Trump has egged on much of it. The fact that you others seem to go silent for everything he's done since the start of his term says a lot though. By the way, I think you should be happy with us all making jokes. When Rob Reiner was murdered earlier in the year he mocked and abused him...



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 22,343 ✭✭✭✭gormdubhgorm


    Is Trump going to be the new “template” for what follows? JD watching closely he has seen what worked for Trump.

    Guff about stuff, and stuff about guff.

    Only last month Trump tweeted upon hearing Robert Mueller had died . “Good. I’m glad he’s dead”

    Now the pearl clutchers are in crying and moralising about how awful people are if they share the same sentiment about Trump that he shares of so many. Cancer survived another night. He’s the absolute scum of the earth.
