The video near the start of someone getting actual video of the shooter before things happened is just insane.

This will be what will drive the rest of the election season - how the fuck did he get so close and was able to act for so long without anyone knowing.

Also that extra was added to the Trump campaign by the SS...

If he was a typical candidate, and not a former president, convicted felon Trump wouldn't have had Secret Service protection at all.
You are such a good Lemming , why hasn’t Joe given you a seat on the bench yet ?

I do understand the law. You don't.

Candidates are not provided SS protection until they are nominated by their parties. That's the way it works, regardless of the opinions of random Canadians who don't know the facts.

Why did you leave out the part about past presidents having life long SS protection ? Regardless in earlier posts in this thread I clearly stated that Trump would not have the same protection as a sitting president . You may understand the law which is why a good party apparatchik such as yourself should be nominated to a seat on the bench .

But… the two of you were going to take all the fun out of the finger-pointing yet to come beyond what’s already happening.
Who didn’t respond, or respond fast enough, from Canada, about this attempted assassination in the US, etc…

Hang the little Gen Z weasel's bullet-ridden body from the nearest highway overpass. Teach others what happens to you when you try and kill Politicians.

Farage: "I was very upset when I heard the news last night."

Donald Trump's close friend, the Reform UK leader and Clacton-on-Sea MP Nigel Farage, has told Sky News it's a miracle his friend is still alive.

Farage has appeared at several Trump rallies and had Farage not been elected an MP in the recent British election he would likely have been alongside Trump again at that very rally.

King Charles III has written to Donald Trump after the soon-to-be American President narrowly escaped assassination in the worst attack on a US Presidential candidate since 1981.

The message is a secret but will Trump reveal what the King has said?

What we do know is that the apolitical King's message would have been written in consultation with the British Government, mainly with Prime Minister Keir Starmer and Foreign Secretary David Lammy.

During a campaign, with many campaign events, it would be expected that the Secret Service would be at full capacity. But I would expect the sitting president and his/her family would take priority if there is a priority list.
Convicted felon Trump isn't a nominee. Nominees receive SS protection.

As do former presidents for ten years after the end of their terms.
Like RFK?
Precisely. Don't know why that's important to you, but gold star anyhow! Be sure to tell Mommy!
There has been calls for protection on RFK for along time especially after the attempt on his life with a knife
I did not know when the SS protection began. If past president, then that probably puts him even further down the priority list.

Benny Thompson never got house approval to remove Trump protection

No, "past president" is why he had protection in the first place. He's not the Republican nominee until. . . after he's nominated. Which will be at the Republican National Convention, Starts today. Ends Thursday.

The Secret Service has over 7000 special agents (that's the ones who carry guns). I've never heard of the "priority list" you keep referring to.

Sooooooo....

Where the fuck is the drone footage?

the soon-to-be American President

I wasn't aware that the election had been moved to anything before November 5th.

There's no guarantee he'll be President. Is it likely? More than it was before the shot was taken, but nothing is certain yet.


We all know who caused this


Sort of.

A 20 year old Conservative with a death wish.

That's it.

As for the Left? There's lots of mixed messages, emotions and reactions. Not all are happy about this. A lot are actually against anything like this, it doesn't matter who is running.

But sure, buy into the ignorance and fascism, Blackie. It's what you do.

True, but…the odds have stacked towards Trump, between getting shot and leaving the stage on Saturday.
There's no guarantee he'll be President.
Nope, no guarantee, but I’m sure dramatically improved odds…

There’s no guarantee Poilievre will beat Trudeau/Singh in Oct 2025…but the odds are that he will.

Who donated (or someone with the same name in the same zip code) to the Biden camp on the day that Biden last won the Presidency…All $15 of it…like a good Conservative would?? I’m not saying he wasn’t a Conservative/Republican, as long as you’re not saying he wasn’t a Liberal/Democrat, etc… as there’s evidence that he was both or neither, conflicting, etc…
That's it.

And I’m sure the same could be said for the Right…right?

I won't argue that; I've thought as much soon as it happened.

Exactly my point.

There’s no guarantee Poilievre will beat Trudeau/Singh in Oct 2025…but the odds are that he will.

Sadly.

Who donated (or someone with the same name in the same zip code) to the Biden camp on the day that Biden last won the Presidency…All $15 of it…like a good Conservative would??

And who after that was registered as a Republican? Who has been said to have been conservative by people who knew him?

I think that stuff trumps 15 bucks to a PAC.

I’m not saying he wasn’t a Conservative/Republican, as long as you’re not saying he wasn’t a Liberal/Democrat, etc…

We don't know for sure what he was.

What we do know is he was registered as a Republican and had Conservative stances.

as there’s evidence that he was both or neither, conflicting, etc…

True. But still...

And I’m sure the same could be said for the Right…right?

Mixed messages from the Right? ... not so much. I've heard a lot of basically "Get the Left/Biden Ordered It" and trash like it. Not so much calls to chill things and not much call for saying what happened shouldn't have happened at all.

As for the target of the attack?

Hasn't even contacted the family of the man who died. Biden made an attempt, but the widow refused the call in honor of her husband's loyalty to Trump.

I think that still says it all right there who is the better human and better leader.
