Trump campaign says he was shot at on golf course. Unhurt.

In case you thought I was making this up

Oh god, here we go again. Just what the fucking doctor ordered less than two months before the election.

Shit, he missed again? WTF?

Christ, I hear gunshots in my vicinity at least once a week.

But I'm sane enough to know they aren't aiming at me.

It was two people shooting at each other (another day in south Florida).

[quote]Two people exchanged gunfire outside of Trump International Golf Course West Palm Beach. The shooters were targeting each other, and the gunfire was not targeting Trump, sources told NY POST.

<---- look over here!

Just some very fine people exercising their second amendment rights.

Given the positive bump the last attempt got him, I wonder how many more times he'll claim he was the target.

Sure.

Donald will find *any* excuse to cover up his flatulence.

R9: Or whom (besides himself, obviously), donald is willing to actually sacrifice for maximum effect?

Uday? Qusay? MAGAbilly?

Oy.

THEY ARE TRYING TO KILL ME.

HAITIANS. TAYLOR SWIFT. DAVID MUIR.

PLEASE BUY MY BIBLE.

We've gone to twice-daily drama with this asshole now. And something tells me it's only going to get worse with each passing day until November.

Were the shots within earshot?

SHITS FIRED!

Has Amy "Boom Boom" Bishop been paroled?

Swifties move fast.

I told you, I WILL NOT BE IGNORED!

Did somebody cry about me?

Trump catching a stray bullet would actually be more satisfying than an assassination. He was shot to death, but it didn't actually have anything to do with him. Just think how furious his ghost would be.

Oh, R13. LMFAO.

Sic semper tyrannis

Bang, bang, bitch.

We are a nation of bad shots.

Did anyone hear gunshots?

Third time’s the charm!

CNN now reporting it was another assassination attempt.

Gee, if only there were some way to curb gun violence.

50 days before the election and he is playing golf and shitposting about his hatred of Taylor Swift.

He shouldn't have fucked with the Swifties.

r28 how convenient.

R25, in most places you don’t have to have any training before you buy a gun. People think that they know what they are doing because they have seen gunfights in movies.

Another staged shooting attempt.

A fame whore like DJT will stop at nothing to keep the focus on him.

He just wants some sympathy for the ass whipping he took last Tuesday.

We really need lots more gun safety and marksmanship classes.

A boy who cried "Wolf!" one too many times.

Now they’ve backtracked and said he actually could have been the target. This is SO Florida.

The first sound was shot.

The rest were anticipatory champagne corks.

donald has just released a fundraising e-mail to profit off this latest incident.

Oh Hillary, the MAGAts & Jesse Watters will try to pin it on you.

Now the race is to find if the shooter was a Democrat or a Republican.

If they are a Republican, then it will be a sad case of a bullied loner with mental illness.

If they are a Democrat, they are an ANTIFA terrorist radicalized by the dangerous rhetoric of Harris, Pelosi, and Schumer, all funded by Soros and directed by Obama.

Did he get a photo op from this one, too? Did they at least think ahead and hire a brown shooter or one with blue hair?

[quote] We've gone to twice-daily drama with this asshole now. And something tells me it's only going to get worse with each passing day until November.

Exactly. Just a daily, poorly-scripted soap opera that doesn’t even elicit a shrug.

It’s like the last season of “Melrose Place” when no one could be bothered to care.

Merch was probably ready to go in less than an hour. That tells you everything.

After spending a week trashing Haitians, why would the Secret Service allow him to play golf in Palm Beach? There’s a ton of Haitian immigrants in that metro area, and he has to have received increased death threats. I’m bot complaining, just curious .

He’s already fundraising off of this.

That's TOTALLY surprising, R47!!

#staged

Stunt queen

Bulletproof MAGA ear muffs, R45.

He's looking for a ratings boost. Nice try, Donnie! Does anyone know whether he got a post assassination attempt bump from that tie in PA? He needs to stay his fat ass off the golf course during a fucking Presidential campaign. He's supposed to be trying to get elected...oh wait...maybe he wastrying ...

He's going to keep getting people to try and "kill him" until one of his cult members kill some Democratic Congresspeople, ok?

Obviously. He wants them to think "they" (the Left) have tried to kill him, so "they" (the Left) need shot and killed, in retaliation.

I've seen posts from MAGA on social media threatening to kill Democrats for the first attempt. Of course, they blame Democrats and not Crooks who was a Republican from a Trumper family.

It worked the last time!

Loomer says she's on her way there to... I don't know what, exactly. Give him an emergency blowjob?

no sympathy for the devil?

Aim Best.

Someone campaign adjacent really wants him gone and replaced with JD.

Second chances

Six weekends left in the election cycle, and he's playing golf???!!!

Lindsey is headed to Trump’s side. Loomer too?

The Secret Service will be breaking up that cat fight.

Lindsey has already been on the phone with Trump several times in the last hour+. Then she goes to the media each time yapping, conveying her distress. All the cable media is reporting what Lindsay has to say. The media adores Lindsey. Why her?

In the wake of the Apalachee school shooting in Georgia, JD Vance called gun violence a “fact of life,” following Donald Trump telling a grieving community in Iowa to “get over it” in the aftermath of a school shooting.

Not a brown? No blue hair?

"Florida State Rep. John Snyder says Trump golf course suspect is a white male in his mid-60s"

They’re trying to take the focus off of the ass whipping he received in the debate. This is from the Distraction 101 playbook.

just keep all your nonsense to yourselves

R63...are you accusing our campaign of "creating" stories?

You know what is not happening? People are no longer talking about Trump horrible performance at the debate.

Haitians supposedly eating pets, Laura Loomer cuddling with Trump, now he is supposedly shot at again. They have been very successful at burying the news of how badly Trump was at the debate, mission accomplished.

Give it a couple of days, r66.

He'll say/do something else crazy that will deflect attention from this "story."

There's other political news in Ohio. The senate race is going badly for Bernie Moreno, Trump's protege. But as far as this incident, It was the Secret Service who fired shots at someone they saw sticking an AR 15 style assault rifle thru a fence at the golf course. They missed the guy dropped the gun and fled, and was arrested later.

Third times a charm.

donald's retaliation for never having received an Emmy for "The Apprentice."

"Take that, ABC!"

From your lips to God's ears, R69.

I don't buy this for ONE SECOND. At Mar-a-largo? FOH

Another vote for staged manipulation.

Does anyone think he is staging these incidents so that he can eventually claim he had a stroke and drop out? He knows he can't win. Rather than lose, he will become ill, and be in such bad shape they can't sentence him to jail.

R63 She's going to "cover" the attempted assassination of Trump. Cover? Bitch, crazy social media whores aren't real journalists! You aren't fooling anyone.

Who is voting for this insanity at this point? I don’t understand it.

LOOK SQUIRREL!

These are the moves of a desperate campaign trying all the tricks and cheats in the book to divert people's attention from the fact that:

DONALD TRUMP JUST HAD THE WORST DEBATE PERFORMANCE EVER, THE LIKES OF WHICH PEOPLE HAVE NEVER SEEN IN THE HISTORY OF THE WORLD.

I hope he gets so paranoid he can't golf. I want everything he enjoys to turn to sawdust.

He’s trying to get his supporters riled up and I believe he wants to encourage them to make attempts on Kamala’s life.

The Libertarian Party of NH deleted a recent tweet saying, “Anyone who murders Kamala Harris will be an American Hero”.

They are all scum and as mentioned upthread, it’s going to get worse.

Everyone do a shot when Dump gets fake shot

Enough with the nonstop Trump news coverage of this nonsense. Nothing happened.

Move on.

What could go wrong?

"Reminder on gun laws in Florida:

-- No state permit required to purchase -- No firearm registration -- No assault weapon law -- No magazine capacity restriction -- No owner license required -- No permit required for concealed carry -- No background checks for private sales"

I hope the FBI pays that shitstain a visit.

Tis a pity that homophobic, racist, antisemitic sluts like Loomer can’t enjoy a pleasant Sunday relaxing.

Maybe the shooter was looking for Tulsi Gabber after her disastrous job of prepping Donald for the debate.

What time does the Emmy red carpet show begin?

You would think all the rich Repugs who go to that golf course would get tired of going through all the security, road blocks and hassle just to golf.

What's on mu iPod?

Not only could the shooter not hit Trump, the secret Service man who saw him couldn't hit the shooter and he escaped.

I wonder how the betting markets are handling this: "Will Trump be shot again? How badly? And will anyone care?"

E network coverage just started R88

[quote]All the cable media is reporting what Lindsay has to say. The media adores Lindsey. Why her?

Lindsey's the only congressperson who will speak to the media anytime, anywhere so they always reach out to him first.

R93, are you accusing the Sénatrice of being a—gasp!—famewhore?

The news is not that Trump was shot (he was not), it's that six weeks away from an election that looks more and more each passing day like a cause perdue, Donald J Trump was golfing. REALLY? YIKES!

And is it because he doesn't want the job (doubtful), or because he thinks the outcome of the election will have no incidence on him getting the job anyway? Time more than ever to GET OUT THE VOTE.

Is Harvey flouncing around TMZ in a pink Tutu?

"Summary of press conference:

- At 1:30 p.m., the Secret Service spotted a man with a rifle along the fence at Trump's golf course. - Suspect was armed with an AK-47-style rifle with a scope. He also had a GoPro. - Gunman was about 300-500 yards away from Trump - Secret Service engaged the suspect, firing at least 4 shots. Unclear whether the suspect fired any shots. - A witness saw a man running out of the bushes and jump into a black SUV. The witness took a photo of the suspect's car and license plate. - The suspect was later detained in Martin County. Police flew the witness up there to confirm they had the right person in custody. - Being treated as an apparent assassination attempt."

Ditto.

"I can’t stress this enough, please do not shoot Donald Trump. I need him to lose to Kamala Harris Nov 5th.

If he gets elected, any attempted assassination will be an excuse to declare martial law.

Enough with all the ridiculous news coverage of this fat fuck. It missed.

Move on.

ATTENTION! ATTENTION!

R85, although the tweet in question was deleted, the NH Libertarian Party is still whining like a little punk ass bitch about it.

"We deleted a tweet because we don't want to break the terms of this website we agreed to.

It's a shame that even on a "free speech" website that libertarians cannot speak freely.

Libertarians are truly the most oppressed minority."

Feels staged. Declare you hate Taylor Swift, go golfing, get shot at. So many of his supporters are deranged, finding one to take a “shot” and get arrested, isn’t outside the realm of possibility.

Watch out, Laura Loomer's on the case!

Do you think it even enters his mind that people hate him so much that they want to kill him? White men, possibly both Repubs.

0 for 2.

Who are the deranged white people trying to shoot him? I just want him to lose in November.

Some sick people in the world.

He’s getting what he wanted. Media attention and more hate directed at Kamala.

I admire how he keeps his head in these situations.

Amateurs!!

It’s probably just Russian roulette at this point

Thoughts and prayers.

If we can tolerate school shootings, I guess we can tolerate Trump assassination attempts.

Other than that, how was the play?

Was there a historical photo this time?

[quote]You called him a threat to democracy and a day 1 dictator. You own this.

Actually, Trump himself said he'd be a dictator on day one. And he's constantly accusing the Democrats of being threats to democracy (projection, of course).

Trump doesn't even deserve thoughts and prayers.

Trumps staged it all.

He'll stop at nothing to avoid going to trial.

Why do they keep missing?

Crisis actors are not exactly Navy SEAL snipers.

He yelled FORE!

Send him to prison now so that he’ll be safe from the public.

Gotta love that from now on he’ll be looking over his shoulder every time he plays a round of golf, ie every day.

Trump is like a beached whale. How do they keep missing him?

Fake news.

Gun control. Right guys?

Alleged suspect Ryan Wesley Routh

Anything to eclipse Kamala's headlines in the news cycle.

Has the markings of something staged to divert from negative stories and garner sympathy for DJT. Timing and the location are suspicious.

I’m not coming into the studio on a Sunday for this shit.

You had to go and have a splashy ass southern middle name

It feels like every time he tanks in the polls there'll be another assassination attempt.

I smell a recipe from Rudy’s election cookbook

So-so soon after his humiliating night of gibberish

Look. Trump has a criminal mind. He is a thug and he has been for decades. So how about this theory. "someone" allied with his campaign, will start the whispering that the Dems are responsible for these attempts. And once it is out there it doesn't matter that it is not true or there is no proof or that it is a viciously ugly thing to insinuate, people will respond.

His Secret Service detail finally has this down to a science. No collateral damage, no direct hit, only OUTRAGE.

Pure PR Bullshit

Wake me when he's on a ventilator.

"Last time, everyone tell me young shooter too young. Zis time, I go with elderly man name - how you say ? - Rine. I give five tousand dollar. I give free copy of my book. I let him touch pussay. I say be best. He still miss. I say fuck zis sheet and Christmas, too. Next time, I do myself. "

Has his ear already grown back again, in 2 hours?

Swifties don't waste any time.

Let’s assume this is all real. We can expect more attempts pre election and a weekly attempt post election. Constant drama. More division and conflict. Embarrassment on the international stage as the world sees our president as a walking target practise for lunatics. And finally all hell breaking loose when he’s eventually downed. Make it stop.

WHET Rudy, R134? MIA.

Golf’s ⛳️ Audie Murphy

There is a lot of security at trump tower, they close the street again l, just like when he was president.

Sooo many tourists taking pics, it's a fucking zoo

I think that Trump is making this up.

Those tourists from Haiti and Venezuela love to take selfies in front of Trump Tower.

The first faked one didn't get him the ratings he wanted, so they had to stage another one......

[quote] I think that Trump is making this up.

No way.

[quote] I think that Trump is making this up.

[quote] No way.

You're right. He never makes things up. Everyone knows he is the absolute soul of integrity.

They’ve substituted the remaining Campaign schedule to a series of Renaissance Faires and Civil War Re-enactments

CNN: Suspect's social media goes deeply into his involvement with Ukraine.

He made it up. Unless someone in the Republican party is so desperate about what their party has turned into that someone wants him dead.

He incites violence all the time and he has legitimized the conspiracy theory websites and nut cases. He reaps what he has sown.

Looks like people are just exhausted with Trump’s bullshit. I think there will be a major shift towards Harris.

First r131 made me 😂🤣😭😭😭

If r151 post is accurate, I can see how someone who had family die in the war etc would become enraged at Dump and take a shot

How the fuck do they keep missing?

A drama for TV

Another assassination attempt on the ex-President and candidate.

Two at-odds mistresses, Laura & Lindzebelle, reacting in the forefront.

Upstaged all other news.

Brings enhanced 24/7 attention to Trump; totally detached from campaign policy issues.

Reinforce back burner status for all criminal prosecutions of Trump.

Assassination attempt immediately used for Trump’s fundraising. Happened the first time.

Blame liberals, the Democratic Psrty and migrants, for the incident.

Give orgasms to the print and cable media.

Is this a presidential campaign or fucking "Passions"?

Another failed distraction.

Anybody could have put the knapsacks and gun in the bushes....staged props?

Are we expected to believe that donald's handpicked secret service detail would be anything other than die-hard MAGAtts devoted to his safety?

Why are they now tainted with accusations of incompetence?

Is it though, R159? He got a lot of great coverage after the first attempt. Now he can whip up more sympathy among voters he was in the process of losing after his horrible debate performance.

Maybe my tin hat is on, but this time it smells like something staged, especially if the suspect didn't fire any bullets.

[quote]He got a lot of great coverage after the first attempt

He and his campaign were pissed as hell that the coverage was here and gone.

It happened on HIS golf course? Coinkidink?

I call shenanigans.

Pics of the shooter. Some kind of pro Ukraine guy but says he voted for Trump in 2016.

Puh-LEEZE.

This is a plot DIRECTLY lifted from the S3, E5 of Charlie’s Angels, titled “Winning is For Losers”, where Kris Munroe’s college pal (played by Jamie Lee Curtis) has various assassination attempts while playing in a golf tournament!

If all goes accordingly, Laura Loomer will soon be wrestling an alligator! 🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻 that she fares worse than Kris!

***** BREAKING ***** BREAKING *****

James Comey has formally indicted Kamala Harris for the Assassination attempt on Professional Golfer & Professional Cable News Watcher Donald J. Trump

In a wide-open space like a private golf course, surround by Secret Service, how is it remotely possible for anyone with a gun to get near enough to Dump and shoot him?

It makes no sense.

Didn't read the entire thread; please excuse my question if it's already been posed upthread.

Republican cannibalism is delicious.

Thought a fence, apparently, r169

So does this mean we can finally go to school again without threats?

R169, you didnt have the time of day to read the other comments but you want people to respond to yours?

How intellectually lazy and self important can you be?

Next up: Trump asks Rudy to come to Mar-A-Lago to take a shot at him. Rudy, being Rudy, is arrested outside a Wells Fargo with an Airsoft gun.

[quote]In a wide-open space like a private golf course, surround by Secret Service, how is it remotely possible for anyone with a gun to get near enough to Dump and shoot him?

There’s dense shrubbery lining some fairways.

[quote] donald's handpicked secret service detail would be anything other than die-hard MAGAtts devoted to his safety? Why are they now tainted with accusations of incompetence?

I think you answered your own question.

So, you're all telling me there's no SS right outside the course (and the fence and the shrubbery), aware of strangers lurking around?

r173, I'm already getting more replies than you'll ever get. And I did apologize for not reading the entire thread.

Trump golf course is in a shitty part of west palm. Close to PBI airport, to a strip club (that’s been there for year), Burger King and a large post office

So another Republican tried to kill him?

Dump is watching this on CNN or MSNBC and laughing. He staged this shit and now the country stops for him again.

When I saw this on the news an hour or so ago, I involuntarily thought to myself "Sure, Jan"...

So far we've had the "eating the dogs" look over there fiasco then Laura Loomer and now another assassination attempt to distract from how badly the Trump campaign is going and how badly he did in the debate where we has assassinated by Kamala and she didn't miss. What next?

It seems that no-one is able to hit such a large, gelatinous target with a rifle. Must be a whole lot of very bad shots out there I suppose...

Recently paroled Susan Smith of South Carolina, now living in the prestigious Villages swears she saw a black woman with bushy hair and a long gun running across the golf course

When he dies none of his supporters will believe he’s dead. He’ll be speaking to the far right press from his secret hideout for decades.

Clever, r184...🤣

Between the blatant racism against black immigrants and people lining up to kill him, Donald has hit rock bottom. No one except his lover Laura Loomer wants his dangerous chaos.

7 flags and the Don Corleone Cosplay?

Yawn. That the two would be assassins are Republicans doesn’t really play to their victim narrative that woke libruls and antifa are out to kill him.

The shooter appears to be a “fall guy”. He’ll die before his trial.

Lester Holt is spot on.

So white trash trying to take out the trash. That's a first.

And like the last shooter, this one also wears clothing with the American flag all over. Profiling these people isn’t hard. It’s never “the quiet one”. It’s always the obvious one known by law enforcement with a history, a mental health diagnosis, flags all over, deranged views posted online and **instant access to guns over the counter like buying a candy bar.**

Omg, they released the pic, looks like psycho

He's a Republican so no surprise.

[quote]Gotta love that from now on he’ll be looking over his shoulder every time he plays a round of golf, ie every day.

He likely staged it R123, so sadly, he won't.

[quote] a cause perdue

I love DL. Thank you, R55.

[quote]I’m bot complaining, just curious .

I think we have a new WHET, R46!

I know he got a little bump last time, but surely there must be a swath of the country that’s so sick of the fucking cloud of drama that follows this loser orange like his shadow.

Three strikes and you're out.

"If we have to create stories to get media attention then we will."

In a nutshell

CNN: suspect’s son says his father is “loving and caring … a good father and a great man.”

You would think Republicans would realize that only a man so hated would be shot at by two different people from their own party. But for them it’s just another vehicle for fundraising.

IT WAS THE HAITIANS WITH DOGS AND CATS AND GEESE!

Motherfucking Elon Musk weighs in.

What a gigantic fucking asshole Musk is R205.

Clearly, no-one is trying to assassinate Biden or Harris because they aren't a threat to the social fabric of America.

The guy was a Swiftie

[quote]Recently paroled Susan Smith of South Carolina, now living in the prestigious Villages

I live 1/2 hour north of there and believe me when I tell you, there is nothing prestigious about living in the Villages -- except to other Villagers.

Everybody else thinks they're nuts.

Had Musk stopped to think he might've been able to answer his own thought. That's right. Because the don't thrive on fueling rage, hate and division. It's actually very simple.

I think most conspiracy theories are bullshit, but….id totally buy into conspiracy theory that this was staged to regain spotlight.

R207 might actually be right. This is a real Truth Social tweet.

Repeat - this is a real tweet from Trump. It has been retweeted by Vance, Loomer and the Dump crime family et al.

There is so much about Trump to dislike but I have to say that if I were American I would be mortified that one of the two challengers for the Presidency tweeted "I HATE TAYLOR SWIFT!" like a pre-teen girl.

Did he at least shit his diaper?

Elon's tweet is a challenge to his degenerate followers, to assassinate Biden and/or Harris.

He wasn't asking "why" he was asking "why haven't you, yet, and how soon can you get it done?"

Sounds like a disgruntled Trumper.

I hope the Trump/Vance Springfield stuff backfired and actually repels Ohio voters.....maybe enough to make it go blue this election. Or at least purple.

I bet the real suspect is a disgruntled cat who voted for Trump in 2016.

Seems fake.

Is NYTimes predicting yet that Trump will emerge from this more presidential, like a uniter-in-chief focused on moving the country forward and away from bitter partisanship? Or did they learn their lesson their first time running to press with that stupidity?

It's so sad when conservative MAGAs become so disillusioned and are trying to kill their cult leader.

I’ve noticed no one cares this time around on my social media feed. It’s crickets.

Agreed R214. Much more needs to be discussed about Musk's interference in issues like the recent British riots, Russian election interference etc. I don't understand why more people aren't talking about it.

[qoute], they released the pic, looks like psycho [/quote]

More than a psycho, a disappointed Trump-MAGA. At any rate, this one did not go beyond the concept stage in the assassination.

Of course, the NYT is pretending like this was an actual assassination attempt, rather than Florida being Florida filled with gun nuts.

Cheeto or the Russians must have something on someone at the NYT. Otherwise, there's no way they'd be printing this level of bad reporting.

Move Trump to Cuba!

[quote] Cheeto or the Russians must have something on someone at the NYT. Otherwise, there's no way they'd be printing this level of bad reporting.

Bill Ackman, Harlan Crow, Marc Andreessen, and their cabal must be funneling some money to them.

FFS!

Same shit, different day. Another shitty shot MAGAt, dimwitted Secret Service, and hysteria on line from the cult.

Just stop.

When you need it done right get a Democrat to do it R228.

Loomer is feeling victimized. She’s been maniacally posting on X about Biden, Harris and Ukrainian Nazis plotting to kill the orange turd and his supporters. Hakeem Jeffries has been identified as a co-conspirator.

I'd never heard of her before last week. She has a very high opinion of her presence in Earth 1

Actually they say he wasn't shot at. They got him before he could fire.

Honestly. The right-wing conspiracy theorists batshit crazy responses in that Loomer tweet at R230 are INSANE.

Love how they think people would vote for someone that is so reviled that people keep wanting to kill him. What a fantastic choice for president!

LOL!

So Supposedly the father Ryan Routh was a registered Democrat and was passionate about the Ukraine conflict.

I dunno - I just can't believe anything about these assassinations.

Maybe people don’t care about the latest assassin because 1) they assume it's the usual craziness brought on by Trump, 2) it would be a blessing if he died.

We need to address mental health in Florida in 2025...

Kamala needs to release a statement that Donald Trump is a convicted criminal out on bail and that none of this would have happened had he been in custody (like in jail).

R239 can we make mad passionate love?

I bet there's at least five more attempts between now and November.

[quote]Maybe my tin hat is on, but this time it smells like something staged, especially if the suspect didn't fire any bullets.

Particularly if it's true, as was reported in my country, that the suspect jumped in a car and drove away, but unfortunately his escape was spotted by a bystander so efficient that he took a photo of the car and numberplate and handed it to a (quite possibly mortified) Secret Service.

Good luck finding anyone to golf with you orange turd. Between the cheating stinking and being a shooting target, everyone will just remain in the clubhouse. Tee off Donnie, I'll be there in a few.

The perp they brought into custody is singing like a canary. He has pointed the finger at Barran Trump, says Barran and Melania met him the day before Barran entered NYU, at Starbucks in Manhattan, and contracted him to assassinate Barron's father. He had no idea who Barran or Melania is - he just took the money in 10 one thousand dollar bills, an advanced copy of 'Melania', and grabbed her by the pussy as he headed to West Palm Beach. Barron and Melania didn't even pay for his Greyhound ticket.

I wanna make out with R244.

Fucking hysterical R244.

Misspelling "Barran" four out of the six times used was the best part

[quote]Of course, the NYT is pretending like this was an actual assassination attempt, rather than Florida being Florida filled with gun nuts.

Well, PA is just as full of gun nuts as Florida, believe me.

The guy they caught was a 58yo white man not a trans Haitian illegal immigrant. Who knew.

I can hear it now: "Nobody's EVER survived TWO assassination attempts before me"

I am actually shocked by the lack of response on social media (FB and IG) and the little I've seen is skeptical

"I have survived the most assassination attempts in the history of the world. Nobody has ever seen anything like it".

R250 Man, that's SO MUCH better than mine.

[quote]I bet there's at least five more attempts between now and November.

Assassination attempts in this election are proving to be the equivalent of caravans in the 2020 election.

Republican will be completely unconcerned about the most important issue: how a mentally ill man with a long criminal record got a gun.

The witness sub plot is wild. A civilian saw a crazed man jump out of a bush wearing body armor. Their response was to calmly take out a phone and take down his licence plate?! They didn’t run away, dial 911, scream, mind their own business to avoid a bullet in the head. Just jotted down the plate with a smug smirk aka Tippi Hedren in the birds. WTF?

[quote]if I were American I would be mortified that one of the two challengers for the Presidency tweeted "I HATE TAYLOR SWIFT!" like a pre-teen girl.

I bet he wrote in the Burn Book about her too.

"Nobody's EVER survived TWO assassination attempts before me"

Bitch, please.

Do not fuck with my followers

R173 People sometimes join a conversation later than others, and say something / ask something which may had been discussed earlier. I'm sure you've been one of those people in your lifetime, so don't be such a pompous ass.

[quote] In a wide-open space like a private golf course, surround by Secret Service, how is it remotely possible for anyone with a gun to get near enough to Dump and shoot him?

It WASN’T possible. The guy was spotted, shot at, and fled.

Florida is an open carry state. What if he was just carrying and went to take a nap in the bushes, with his trusty AK?

I mean, many ammosexuals I'm sure have slept with -- er, alongside-- their beloved firearms!

What about this huge mouthed freak's right to carry an AK and walk around Florida's streets, as one does?

[quote] R173] People sometimes join a conversation later than others, and say something / ask something which may had been discussed earlier. I'm sure you've been one of those people in your lifetime, so don't be such a pompous ass

Everyone participating in this conversation except for ME came in late. Fortunately, I have arranged with my dear friend Muriel for every word to be written down and preserved for the convenience of latecomers.

Florida, remarkably, is not an open carry state. Yet.

My mistake, R264. Thank you.

When it does get there I guess residents will be able to look forward to fellas like this guy, being able to carry AKs. Jolly!

Hmmm ABC news says his golfing was unpublicized and it was a last minute decision to go there.

Will it be written down with a dialling pencil R263/OP?

Edit: No doors allowed, at all!

"We need to completely rethink America's golf courses. Steel doors surrounding the greens. Armored golf carts. And, above all, trained and armed caddies.

No soft targets."

He plays golf almost every day. Just hang out at a nearby Dunkin and wait for the motorcade.

The lunacy that Trump attracts is just phenomenal. Has there ever, anywhere on planet earth, been a political campaign surrounded by such sheer insanity? Practically everyone closest to him on the campaign staff are likely carry legitimate Axis II personality disorders.

And then there's his followers. Some of the people at the rallies look and sound unwell. The adulation, the amount of psychological projection, the worship is staggering. And then, there's the violent ones. Remember the gay, homeless, former stripper, south FL Seminole Indian who lived in a van plastered with Trump's likeness? The one who sent pipe bombs to Trump critics setting off a nation-wide scare? How many incidents of violence has Trump inspired across the nation? And I'm not talking about January 6.

r270 Yeah, whatever we might think of him, Trump IS a phenomenon the likes of which we probably will not see again in our lifetime.

Trump's media throat goat had a prior run-in with his lastest (attempted) assassin.

"The .@nytimes has actually interviewed Ryan Routh back in 2023 for their piece called "Stolen Valor: The U.S. Volunteers in Ukraine Who Lie, Waste and Bicker". They concluded then that he was a nutjob and did not accomplish anything in Ukraine"

[quote]"Nobody's EVER survived TWO assassination attempts before me"

Castro survived at least 10 attempts (probably many more) by the CIA to assassinate him, and there have been multiple attempts on Zelensky by Russian operatives since the war there began. You didn't hear either of them droning on about it endlessly.

That's only in relatively contemporary history. Go back to the Roman emperors, the Russian tsars...there have probably been dozens of leaders who survived multiple assassination attempts, often before succumbing to one. As for Rasputin, he survived four or five attempts in ONE NIGHT before finally drowning after being thrown unconscious into a river.

Talk about not being able to hit the broadside of an orange barn.

Where did a former construction worker, retired in his 50s, get the money to up and go to Ukraine “for months”. Or the money to go to DC? Could it be that this is not a failed state where people cannot buy milk and bread but one where total idiots have access to way too much money. Every day we hear about MAGA mouth breathers losing 6 figure sums of cash to scammers. They were all able to get themselves to DC on Jan 6 with their giant trucks. They can make pests of themselves in foreign country. Amazing work for a group of people who consider themselves losers in a failed country that is third world.

[quote]Kamala needs to release a statement that Donald Trump is a convicted criminal out on bail and that none of this would have happened had he been in custody (like in jail).

She shouldn’t say that, but one of her surrogates like Pete Buttigieg should say it.

Nobody can say that. It's interfering with Merchan's ability to run his court, and in any case nobody knows whether he will impose a jail sentence in the first place.

The alleged shooter is a 60-year-old white man who voted for Trump in 2016, a Ukraine supporter and covid conspiracy theorist. What else I find funny is we have heard practically nothing about the first shooter. Why does it seem like the lunatics he covets are now trying to kill him?

Don't try to understand crazy, r278, you'll drive yourself crazy

Did this happen at the Four Seasons Landscaping Co?

"JUST IN: Trump assassination attempt suspect Ryan Routh charged with possession of a firearm by a convicted felon and possession of a firearm with an obliterated serial number"

I wonder if he was in possession of the same weapon that he pointed at SS? If so, that witness followed a madman with an AK47 and carefully captured his plates moments after they heard (the SS) gunfire. Seems like the witness is luckier than Dump.

Another assassination attempt will make Dump unravel even further. I wish this election were over.

Got to work this morning and the conversation in the canteen was 'Trump is going to be shot during a second term, no question. That weird Vance guy would be president'

The guy dropped the AK before he fled, r282. I'm intrigued by this witness. He must have heard the gunshots.

Maybe Vance is behind these attempts. He is crazy enough.

At least this nutcase had a political agenda. He was pissed off about Ukraine.

R266, it's possible that he staked out the golf course for a day or two. Trump was bound to turn up.

Oh, boo hoo.

The lying bastard didn’t fall far from the decaying tree.

Gramps may HATE TAYLOR SWIFT, but his granddaughter Arabella appears to be a Swiftie.

Report: An emotional Lindsay Graham was taken into custody on charges of planning a murder for hire. The Senator screamed at reporters, "If I can't have him, nobody can!"

'5 young children about radical leftist trying to kill their....'

That sounds like they have a bot programmed to fill in the blank with 'radical leftist' but the bot doesn't do indefinite articles without paying for the pro version!

The guy was Trump voter

[quote]You know what’s getting really old? Having to have conversations with my 5 young children about radical leftist trying to kill their grandfather.

Trump is getting really old. There'll surely be more quintuple conversations about sex convictions, insurrection, bankruptcies and impeachment in the years to come. Nobody said fatherhood was easy. And as to the killing thing, Grandfather has created a uniquely ugly aggressive new political culture during the past eight years - so the fact that this new culture has now in its way turned on the progenitor cannot be considered entirely surprising. A reasonable topic for educative family discussion.

I can't believe Ivanka would let him in the room with her daughters, not unsupervised at least.

[quote]You know what’s getting really old? Having to have conversations with my 5 young children about radical leftist trying to kill their grandfather. No person should ever have to do this in America or anywhere else and yet I had to have that conversation five times again yesterday.

Ha! As if Trump even remembers he has grand kids! The conversation was mostly, "No we are not getting the inheritance yet, so calm down."

Dump is so fucking desperate.

The White House condemned Musk’s now deleted tweet in which he asked why no one has tried to assassinate Biden or Harris. Musk claims it was a joke that isn’t funny when taken out of context.

Threats aren't jokes, Edgelord Elmo.

Maybe his (tiny) hand-picked secret service guys are no longer very interested in keeping him alive? 12 hours is a pretty big window to have caught a guy with such large teef and an AK.

"New info: Trump assassination attempt suspect Ryan Routh was in the vicinity of the golf course's tree line for nearly 12 hours before being spotted"

Elmo is such a prick.

Revoke his security clearance, seize his assets and throw him in Gitmo as a threat to National security.

Why do they treat these whyte men like they’re untouchable? Lick them the fuck up!

50 days until the election. Then we can watch the orange turd implode in a desperate attempt to stay out of prison.

That will be sweet to see.

He’s spiraling now, r303.

The only problem with that is he’s trying to drag the rest of the country to hell with him and his prick side kick.

[quote]The White House condemned Musk’s now deleted tweet in which he asked why no one has tried to assassinate Biden or Harris. Musk claims it was a joke that isn’t funny when taken out of context.

Similarly Trump in the debate claimed that his concession in an interview that he'd in fact lost the '20 election was - 'sarcastic.' Moderator Muir dared to observe that sarcasm wasn't evident in the context of the interview.

Very odd indeed that such rich powerful influential men, who consider themselves intelligent, have such problems in communicating their views clearly. And that sarcasm and jokes are considered useful modes when discussing such very serious matters.

Dump and Musk don't think much before they speak. They just blurt out whatever hits their deluded minds as clever.

I was going to post that upthread about Dump's racist remark about Kamala; I honestly don't think he realized it might have a double meaning. He's not that smart or perceptive.

Musk must be on drugs...I'm just wondering what kind...any guesses?

there is gonna be so much chaos in Nov.

Do you think he'll really go quietly if he loses?

He's said to be an avid ketamine user. He was also famously interviewed on some podcast while smoking a huge blunt. It wouldn't shock me if he needs pick me ups and uses Adderall or worse. The WSJ had an article diacussing his board members' concerns about his drug abuse.

No he will not go quietly into the night. Why can't someone do the good old widow's trick of subtle poisoning?

Trump has been saying that Kamala will cause a 1929 level Depression, WW3, and the US to fail entirely. He said she'll let in millions of illegals, she'll take the jobs of all black and brown people, she'll take your religion, she murder millions of babies.. She won't be able to stand up to dictators and will cause a nuclear war. He said if you don't vote for me 'it's all over' and now his little minions are seriously suggesting that Dems are the ones using inflammatory rhetoric?

A normal person would wonder why he’s being shot at and perhaps change his behavior or stay home. Instead, Trump complains that he has to tell his grandchildren and lies about the party affiliation of the shooters. He’s a mess.

God, he looks ginormous in his golfing clothes! OT but I just had to say this.

He is...how should we say...morbidly obese.

Let us not forget she'll castrate your son in school! Little Johnny will get off the bus as little Joanie.

[quote]Instead, Trump complains that he has to tell his grandchildren and lies about the party affiliation of the shooters.

Weren’t the shooters Republicans anyway?

Latest: No shots fired nor did the suspect have a line of site to DUMP. He was lurking in the area for 12 hours!! Let's see how the MAGA Lug Nuts spin this.

SS say he never fired the weapon and he didn't have a sightline of Trump. Assassination attempt is overkill then, move on MSNBC.

Interesting, R313 ... when he emerged on the campaign trail earlier this summer DL was speculating that he'd been taking Ozempic ...I guess the polls since then have him binge eating.

[QUOTE]God, he looks ginormous in his golfing clothes! OT but I just had to say this. He is...how should we say...morbidly obese.

Once he croaks in custody and the autopsy is performed, we'll know his final dimensions. Likely 6'1" and 280-300 lbs.

why doesn't he go on ozempic? he's so fucking fat!

R320 - Probably contraindicated considering his age and how many other pharmaceuticals he ingests. Of course, perpetually drunk Dr. Feelgood Stolen Valor recipient, Ronny Jackson, would prescribe it anyway.

My suspicion is that he was on it for a while but had adverse reactions like uncontrollable shits and sharts that quickly loaded his Depends. And poor Walt Nauta couldn't keep up with the diaper changes and applications of Vaseline and Benadryl cream. Can Anbesol be applied anally? Did Walt get a charge out of it? Inquiring minds...

And Trump didn't like a perpetually sore, reddened and chapped anus.

[quote]yet I had to have that conversation five times again yesterday.

Too bad his kids are so fucking stupid they couldn't understand it the first four times.

Jesus that’s vivid, r321 🤮

Yeah, I'm a little twisted, r324. But how wrong am I?

This 58yo wacko hid in the bushes for 12 hours. Didn't get within 500yrds of Dump. Didn't fire any shots. Thru down his rifle and ran off' when spotted and fired on by secret service. Okee Dokee

Reddit Warrior strikes again

Can we not have a faux assassination attempt tonight? I want to watch the Eagles/Falcons game.

TIA

In Springfield, there are 300 million illegal Haitians who have descended on the city and they are all eating the eagles and falcons R329!

Not without my falcon!

Sorry if this has been answered, but if Trump is killed who becomes the Republican nominee? JD? Who decides?

^^^Maybe its Lara Trump who makes the decision, if she can ever step away from her successful singing career and throngs of fans to run the Republican Party.

Ford survived several assassination attempts.

But it didn't win him any votes.

Randy Quaid has figured it all out, everyone. It's Michelle Obama's fault,

Not the Hollywood Star Whackers??

R334 Even old Jimmy had some guy called Raymond Lee Harvey after him, but he and the press made no fuss of it unlike Dump.

R340, here in Georgia we call him Mr. Jimmy, and she was Miz Rosalynn.

Could it be that assassination attempts are almost being normalised by Dump?

R341 That reminded me of Miz Lillian too. What a gal!

This is already out of the news cycle.

TAYLOR SWIFT TRIED TO KILL ME!!!!

Kudos r330. That made me actually laugh out loud.

I’m in a red county in a blue state. About 40% of the time that I go to a big box store or large supermarket, I’ll see some big fat Bubba open carrying. So I guess that, according to the standard that all news outlets have applied to this story, I’ve survived dozens if not hundreds of attempted assassinations. Where is my secret service protection?

Which state, r347? I'm in Sacramento, CA where a local Walmart has a decal on its door kindly asking people to not bring firearms into the store. CA is obviously not an open carry state...

[quote]It's @MichelleObama who asked Twitter to ban Trump in 2019, it's she who started the hateful "I fear Trump" rhetoric." I blame her and Biden/Harris for both shootings.

First, there was only one actual shooting. Second, if hateful rhetoric is to be condemned, Trump faces blame for multiple offences, not least for always referring to "Crooked Biden."

[quote]"Nobody's EVER survived TWO assassination attempts before me"

Well, excuse me for breathing.

[quote]Randy Quaid has figured it all out, everyone. It's Michelle Obama's fault,

Huh. Would not have expected that accusation but OK.

He used to be the sane Quaid, too.

[quote]He used to be the sane Quaid, too.

When? Randy Quaid has been batshit crazy for years.

Two assassination attempts, two impeachments, Dump is like a dirt cockroach that scatters around but wont leave the building.

How much compensation would Randy Quaid give Nancy Pelosi then? Trumps vilification of her built on years of Republican vilification and got her husband terrorized and almost killed. Instead of backing down he’s piled on her on the debate stage and at almost every rally. These “low information undecided voters” blame her for everything. Pothole in Bumble, Kentucky? It’s crazy Nancy.

How much compensation should every woman get when the manosphere radicalizes another mass shooter who targets them? How about Latinos and AAs when they are assassinated in grocery stores and churches by white losers who leave behind a far right manifesto?

All abusers run on for a long time because they are not called on their shit. They create a narrative where they are actually of the victim and their own victim asked for it/nags/needs to be put in their place.

MSNBC was pushing back last night but not enough. A fairly meek “well let’s not forget that Trump also posted such and such” but the such and such is not even a good example of the things he’s said. The man has literally said that Kamala would destroy the country, take your job, seize your assets, turn your son into your daughter (during school hours!) You don’t think that trigger that minds of the mentally ill who are fascinated by him? PLAY THE CLIP. When JD and Big Marg come in talking shit PLAY THE CLIP of Donald trying to scare people senseless

"This is not a two sides issue! From posting images of a bound, kidnapped Biden, calling political enemies vermin and posting “I HATE TAYLOR SWIFT” - Trump is the candidate who travels in hate and violence. Saying Trump is a threat to Democracy is not “rhetoric.” It’s the truth."

Democrats need to turn down the hateful rhetoric, eh? Sure, Jan.

"Texas Department of Public Safety Director Steve McCraw doubles down on referring to undocumented immigrants as "cockroaches" that are part of an "infestation":

"Texas is not going to allow any part of this state to be infested with that type of disease.""

Straight up fascist rhetoric, r356

R336 Good to see Randy's still on meth.

[quote]When? Randy Quaid has been batshit crazy for years.

Oh jeez, I was thinking of the other one. This is why I shouldn't post at 2am. Sorry.

More projection and gaslighting from the right. I think most people have figured it out already. And no one is buying these fake assassination attempts OR giving Dump a sympathy vote for it.

I guess the pipe bombs this fatass mailed out was Democrat's fault, too.

"Six years ago, Cesar Sayoc mailed pipe bombs to several people including Kamala Harris, Joe Biden, Barack Obama, and Hillary Clinton.

He pled guilty to 65 felonies and is currently serving a 20-year prison sentence.

Here is what was on his van."

*were

The Butler catastrophe, dead collateral and bloody Trump, proved to the Trump Secret Service, if you are going to STAGE an assassination "attempt", you better own the STAGE.

Routh, and his sniper nest, was placed as carefully on the golf course as an Easter egg on the White House South Lawn.

No casualties, no threat to Trump, no direct line of sight at any time and the only shots were made by the SS Detail.

Trump should not be afraid of guns. When Putin wants him gone, it will be Novichok.

If it comes to pass, I only hope it is recorded.

I hope it's falling out a window R363.

Mere hours before the "alleged assassination attempt," Dump posted the following to Truth Social:

[quote]THE FAILING NEW YORK TIMES IS A TRUE THREAT TO DEMOCRACY!

[quote]I HATE TAYLOR SWIFT!

The Right can FUCK RIGHT OFF with their, "Dems need to tone done their rhetoric!!!"

^^^DOWN

r364, painfully frothing from the mouth as your entire nervous system is on fire or a swift, relatively painless impact death?

The windows at Trump Tower are sealed.

[quote] THE FAILING NEW YORK TIMES IS A TRUE THREAT TO DEMOCRACY!

Joe Kahn: "But... we love you daddy! Please, forgive us!!"

So fake, so-so sad

But cheaply made R357. They could never withstand his weight.

I meant R367

ZZZZZZZZZZZZ.

Another lame ass publicity stunt from an unrepentant fame whore, still smarting from having a woman shove her foot up his gigantic manhole live on national television.

Hey, it’s a living!

I'm getting agita. Can't sleep. I'm going to take my own advice and stop watching TV news shows. I know what I have to do in November.

No truer words written.

The news cycle has already moved on

Will Dump fake his own death once he loses?

Every new "attempt on his life" gets even less coverage than the previous one.

R377, I truly believe he will fake some illness like a stroke to avoid jail.

Women are dying, nobody cares about your faked assassination, Trumpie.

He could fake a plane crash and then flee to Venezuela. But could he live a quiet life out of the limelight? I just don't see that happening.

My prediction from two months ago.

Trump loses the election, his plane makes a getaway to Cuba.

Navy Jets are scrambled, and he is ordered back to US Airspace. No Response and the Trump Jet is shot down.

The next day, John Barron walks into his Moscow dacha.

R382, great plot. But there's a huge hole in it. No one will take a high maintenance buffoon like Trump without a lot of "financial backing." In other words he'd have t o pay a lot of money to be allowed in and stay there.

I have said this on multiple threads.

1. Trump will not flee. He will have no reason to flee.

2. Trump will never go to prison.

He'll die in peace someday at Mar-a-Lago -- sooner, I hope, rather than later, for the sake of the American people.

r383, I am certain he has billions in accounts in Saudi A and Russia.

They'd take him, but will they not poison him as well?

Can we re-pay the Saudis the $2B they gave Jared to take Diaper Donnie off our hands? We could get a Go Fund Me up and completed before Election Day.

They think I'M obnoxious, R385, wait 'til donald gets here!

Cristiano Ronaldo? Ronaldo McDonald?

How many Ronaldos do we know in Saudi Arabia.

Oy.⚽️

Sorry, R390, we cannot acknowledge any facts that make Donald Trump look like less of a victim. We have a job to do.

Trump was never in the attempted assassins sight lines and he was never in any immediate danger.

But he has to be lucky every time

Today was out there making huge lies about the oil industry.. He knows nothing about anything.

"I'm waiting for the intern to accidentally send out the fundraising email before the assassination attempt. You know it will happen one of these times."

After Donald Trump and JD Vance demanded Democrats to lower their rhetoric, CNN made a montage of all the inflammatory things Donald Trump and JD Vance have said.

Correct me if I'm wrong but wasn't it Vance who claimed that Trump was America's Hitler and was a threat to democracy?

Trump likes to play golf on his golf courses because the secret service have to rent his hotel rooms and eat there. The same with his golf guests, that's a money making scheme. He was told many times that it requires more SS resources to properly protect him on his golf courses because of the close neighboring properties that cannot be secured efficiently.

[quote]Latest: No shots fired nor did the suspect have a line of site to DUMP.

Yes. Apparently the suspect was spotted by SS scouts who go ahead to ensure the area Trump will soon enter is safe, so he was nowhere near the suspect.

[quote]Trump likes to play golf on his golf courses because the secret service have to rent his hotel rooms and eat there.

Doubtless. Obama used to play golf on US military bases, which could be fully secured. Kamala doesn't seem like much of a mad golfer and Joe is busy, so they'd probably let Trump, while he's the candidate, do the same rather than have the state pay out vast sums to secure his private courses and enrich him while they're at it.

I don't see plenty of security on the Delaware beaches when Bide gets some Oceanside sun.

But Joe isn't evil...

I had a cousin whose husband was up high enough in a cabinet level department to get privileges at military bases in the D.C. area. When we visited we swam and golfed with abandon at one of them. It was great! Obama didn't suffer from using the bases and I suspect there were a lot of threats so his security was a major concern. I think Biden loves going to Delaware and when he is in D.C. he is fine with Camp David. It's supposed to lovely. Personally I never much cared for rustic cabins in a nature setting but they like it. My point is It's easier to secure. Trump has been told about security concerns but his greedy ass and his twisted ego make him believe he is invincible.

Why is Don Jr. lying to his kids? Radical leftits? Both of them were Trump supporters...

He cannot help it, R407. Mendacity is an inheritable trump family value.

[quote]Lick them the fuck up!

Pics please.

All the MSNBC crew, talking in lockstep, referred to the first incident as a "terrible" or "horrific" assassination attempt each time it was mentioned.

Appeasers, the lot of them.

‘I Really Wanted to Finish The Hole!’ Hannity Shares What Trump Told Him After Shots Fired at His Golf Course

[quote] I Really Wanted to Finish The Hole!’

If I had a nickel for every time I've heard this....

Watch Hate Cable News - Eat Gluttonously - Play Golf - Spew Horror - Repeat

R405 makes a point that isn’t stressed enough by the media (quelle suprise) Joe Biden sits on a Delaware beach. People walk past right in front of him. They either ignore him or smile and wave. Kamala and Doug have been going home to California over the past few years. The LA Times covered a few visits. Kamala limits her movements to avoid disrupting locals. Can will not go to a restaurant if it requires his detail driving across town causing traffic chaos. Doug goes out to the gym, he goes to his local coffee shop. He of ignored or politely greeted.

This is as it should be. Every trip outside the house should not produce a viral video because of haters and protests and would be assassins. Or deranged fans. When Trump attended the 9-11 memorial total nut bags were screaming “you won” , “you were ambushed”, “we love you” He was winking and waving at these people. Statistically most people there voted for Biden. Did anyone yell at him? Not one. As it should be. A memorial is not a Harry Styles concert.

Trump is chaos.

KAOS indeed.

Trump probably had paid people in the audience to shout out "greetings" at the 9/11 Memorial ceremony. He has no sense of appropriateness.

Agree, R420. Mentally ill people like Trump who inflict chaos on others also have chaos follow them. It's his (their) natural state.

Actually, R420, the less said the better. Trump makes himself a target by his constant need for publicity. The staff and the SS with Biden, Doug and Kamala, the Walzes, control the amount of information available in real time. And you know Trump doesn't want Vance to get too much attention, so he makes himself a target. He also incites violence in his speeches. Today, he is still doing the same things he did to incite thousands of yahoos to storm the Capitol.

I wonder how much this little scam will haul in. It's a trading card, BTW. I had to look in the comments to see what it is.

I think if Trump were behind that, he’d try to find more flattering photos. Better yet, he’d use a glamorous painting of himself with a golf club in one hand and an AK-47 in the other. Flags and bullets whizzing in the background.

why isn't he on ozempic? he's a fat cunt!

Those photos at R426 have been photoshopped. He's way fatter than that and has giant moobs.

It's a variation on the old joke, "But apart from that, Mrs Lincoln, how was the play?" An adviser who had heard that and was smart enough to transpose it could do it easily, but I agree Trump couldn't make it up.

Wow, did that charade ever drop from the headlines

Shotes were fired at the golf course. By the security team. At the man with the gun, not Trump.

The people have had enough and are starting to rise up. NOBODY likes this clown. Not even the "true believers" who follow him from rally to rally to inflate his numbers.

The biggest "fuck you" you can give the entire Trump cult is by voting and keeping them out of power.

It's the only meaningful "fuck you" you can give them. They don't GAF about anything you say or write.

The crypto scam fallout will be interesting. The Trump brothers have picked 2 disgusting manosphere grifters to run the business. One on record saying that crypto is wonderful for scamming. The other on video teaching guys how to be pickup artists. Pretty soon these guys will be on a yacht throwing around MAGA money. A silver lining I guess but it’s all so grimy.

The Trump crypto scam seems like a huge part of the campaign story—who's covering it? Is it just getting swept aside by the various mini-scandals? Can some journalist please do a big write up around, say, mid-October?

Not to be outdone, Melania launches her own grift:

^ tacky brass ornaments with a red white and blue theme priced at $75-$90, so a huge markup. Her? signature is sandblasted onto the back but it looks like Donald’s Sharpie scrawl.

$90 for a piece of junk.

The MAGA crowd is not poor. The NYT has spent a decade convincing us that they are disadvantaged, dirt poor whites in the hollers. In every vox pop they are well off older whites with trucks, boats and second homes. Trump is selling them trading cards, bibles, tchotchkes, crypto, sneakers, hats. They have endless disposable cash.

R442, they spend it at the expense of their children, their health, and their hygiene.

Apparently Routh left a letter in his truck:

"This Was An Assassination Attempt On Donald Trump”: Suspect Left A Letter Outlining Plans."

Written by a Trump staffer no doubt.

This "assassination" attempt, as well as the one in July, smell like week old fish left out in the sun to rot.

Each update makes it feel more fake.

"Some people might say it's fake, so let's make sure a note outlining the assassination attempt is found. Oh and to make sure it's found, we'll put it in his truck".

It's like a really bad novel.

There will be at least one more "attempt" between now and November 5th as Dump gets more desperate.

It was reported that the suspected 'assassin' was stopped in his NISSAN car - not a truck! This is another detour from reality by the MAGA lug nuts.

[quote]$90 for a piece of junk.

Could be worse, she wants $600 for this piece of junk.

R448 Not to mention the "witness" who happened to be hanging around the bushes on the outside of the golf course described the gunman escaping in a black SUV. So apparently there were at least three different vehicles involved in this operation.

Now that his cult of MAGA faithful supporters are whipped up this election season, he could just admit all funds from Trump-related products will be for legal defense to keep him out of jail if (and hopefully) he loses the election and to pay off court settlements. They would still send him their own money anyway.

Trump supporters are basically similar to the easily duped followers of Evangelical televangelists and WWE fanatics. They buy into whatever Trump tells them and they go to his rallies like it was part wrestling supershow event and part Evangelical sermon. Yeah, it is very much a cult.

SHITS FIRED!!!

Oh, wait. That was just my butt acting up again.

The whole family is nuts.
