Assassination attemp against Donald Trump

A sad day for America.
Prayers for Donald Trump and his family and prayers for peace in the nation.

In 2010, Sarah Palin ran an ad with a map of the US that had 20 rifle scope crosshairs indicating the congressional districts where she wanted to take back seats for Republicans. So, was she saying she wanted all those people assassinated, or were the crosshairs simply a metaphor for taking them out politically? At the time, everyone defended Palin and said it was just a political ad with no nefarious meaning. So, seems to me what's good for the goose is good for the gander.

Honestly, I think Trump is too arrogant appreciate anyone but himself

I’ve seen that before and it’s so instructive.
But it needs to be updated. MANY more recently have been calling for violence on Trump.

Even Biden a couple days ago said “We need to put a bullseye on Trump”.

Regardless of what Palin did, Biden' s rhetoric against Trump was an incentive to any crazy person (or not so crazy assassin) to go ahead and kill Trump.

I don't expect you -- with your Trump Derangement Syndrome -- to carefully check out what Biden, the Democrats, the DOJ, the FBI, the courts, SCOTUS, the media, and all Trump's enemies have been saying FALSELY about Trump, and doing evil against Trump, and lawfare against Trump, for years and years. That would be too much for you, since you already believe the Leftist lies thoroughly.

And how did the FBI - within less than a couple of hours -- have such a detailed history about the assassin- - when their investigations usually drag on for months and years? All of a sudden, they have the history of this killer.

"The gunman who attempted to assassinate former President Donald Trump at a campaign rally in Butler, Pennsylvania, Saturday night has been identified and his background revealed. The FBI identified the shooter as 20-year-old Thomas Matthew Crooks from Bethel Park, Penn., but officials released no additional information about him...The F.B.I noted the gunman in the attempt on Trump’s life did not have a criminal history reflected in Pennsylvania’s public court records.

The only logical conclusion it would seem is that this young idiot was set up by the FBI. If they were authorized to use lethal force at Mar-a-Lago, then why not? If they were a part of the January 6 riots trying to incite innocent citizens, then locking them up,, then why not? They have been going after pro-life supporters, and exonerating criminals at the same time. Given the recent history of the FBI under Biden, why should we not question their involvement? After all they deemed Trump guilty until proven innocent. And Comey, Wray, McCabe, Mueller, and all the other top dogs of the FBI were already working against Trump a long time ago.

Look at how far back this guy has to go to find republicans obscurely making any kind of threat.

Hey RA, go watch Lucy’s video and get back to us.

"It takes more than a bullet to kill a bull moose" -- Theodore Roosevelt
"...The parallels from American history are clear, and clearest of all is the attempted assassination of Theodore Roosevelt in 1912. As TR prepared to mount the stage to deliver a stump speech for his Progressive Party, a disgruntled saloonkeeper called John Schrank shot him in the chest at point-blank range. Correctly deducing that, since he was not coughing up blood, the bullet had missed his lung, Roosevelt shrugged off any concerns for his health and continued about his business. His first words to the audience became the stuff of legend.

“Friends, I shall ask you to be as quiet as possible. I don’t know whether you fully understand that I have just been shot—but it takes more than that to kill a Bull Moose.”

TR spoke for nearly an hour, delivering the full speech he had prepared, his chest wound pumping blood, before he allowed physicians to look at him...

The fed plant trying to tie Trump to Hitler.

Truly revolting.

Nothing to do with the real assassination attempt on Ronald Reagan but.......

One does have to wonder about that quick response.
Lots of interesting things about this whole event... and I will leave it there for now.

The SS failed, as did other law enforcement. Many eyewitnesses said they saw the Shooter before he shot and told police many times of the person climbing and jumping across the building. If you look, even the snipers who shot him out seemed to wait until three shots were fired. The SS jumped on Trump only after he was shot. They failed. Less than an inch to the right, America would be in a civil war.

The shooter is a registered Republican.

What happened to Trump and the other individuals is abhorent. I'm not a supporter but I don't wish death on anyone. Just because you don't agree with a persons ways or political affiliation does not mean that they should be killed. Just like I didn't agree with Jan 6th, I don't agree with this. Just let the voting polls do it's job without interference.

I voted for Biden the last election. I'm not sure if He will have my vote in this one. He looks bewildered and unsure of where he is or what he has to say. Whew, this Nation really needs Prayer. There is so much hate and division that it is scary for lack of a better word at the moment.

State voter records show that Crooks was a registered Republican and the upcoming November 5 election would have been the first time Crooks had been old enough to vote in a presidential race.

However, when he was 17 he made a $15 donation to ActBlue, a political action committee that raises money for left-leaning and Democratic politicians, according to a 2021 Federal Election Commission filing. The donation was earmarked for the Progressive Turnout Project, a national group that rallies Democrats to vote.

Agreed!
I read that myself.

So at age 17 he was Democrat but this coming Election he registered Republican.
He had a change of heart between age 17 to 20. Maybe he wanted another Republican Candidate and not Trump

i will say this again- when you have a large percentage of the country that spend lots of time encouraging and fomenting hate toward one man, this is a expected outcome.

a sad, tragic outcome, but not a surprise.

i think if there was an assassination attempt on Biden the people who are today swearing it was a hit ordered by Biden would never think it was a hit ordered by Trump, even though we could find 1,000x more out of context sound clips to make the same implication.

ever since the Obama campaign began our country, particularly the right, has grown increasingly irrational in its political division.

Well I wasn't sure where to make my first post but after reading in the different threads here it goes. Under federal law a minor cannot make political donations in any state. His father also has the same name and is probably who made the donation. Then there's the issue of him being a registered Republican which would mean he voted in the Republican primary which is how he became a registered Republican.

Theatre.
