Sure, there was the attempted assassination of Reagan and the fears for Obama as the first black President, but in those cases it was a lone nutter rather than a conspiracy.
How long can Trump crash the market before an angry billionaire decides to take him out? The remaining Koch brother is already pouring money into legal challenges against Trump…
pretty unlikely, but two people have already tried…
So i guess we can’t leave cards off the table. Just needs the correct moment, and opportune time, which is going to be a huge pain point for any would be attempter. If there are any, they’re likely to be like the first two.
Not to mention we would have JD vance as president at that point, and honestly, i have no idea what happens after that.
The Republicans puppet him into walking back the most insane shit while they continue destroying every institution they care to. Nothing gets better. We get slightly worse predictions about what the fascists in charge are going to do next, but it’ll still be terrible.
they haven’t done anything significant in a month, there’s been tariffs sure, but that was delayed a month already. Lame duck president if i’ve ever seen anything.
That’s not what lame duck means. And sending people to prison in Guantanamo Bay, El Salvador, and Panama is pretty significant. They can’t even find one of the legal guys who has been ordered to be returned to the US. US (possibly world) heading for economic recession if not depression. Inflation and lack of work like you’ve never seen unless you’re 100 years old. We’ve got an anti vaccine fuckwit in charge of healthcare. An unelected oligarch has dismantled large portions of the federal government. They’ve got their eyes on social security, Medicare, and Medicaid. It’s certainly not nothing.
yeah that’s technically true, but they’ve done basically everything they already can, nothing happening today is “new” it’s old news. That’s what i mean when i say “lame duck”
And technically, from the perspective of nearly no consequences, this is literally a lame duck president all the way through, but that’s not really a fully accurate telling.
you don’t need to tell me what this administration is bad at, trust me, i know.
Depends on how the assassination is done. If it’s a headshot on trump, Vance will likely be president. If someone flies an IED drone into the two of them and they both die in the explosion, that’s different.
a friend and i theorized the chain of succession, it doesn’t look good, unless you get chuck grassley, who is 4th iirc. Might actually be good, he’s like 91 though.
Everyone beyond that seems equally dogshit but i didn’t bother looking. I figure you would have to go through like 30 people, before getting a solid one.
I thought you were exaggerating that he’s 91. Our government has too many ancient farts, maybe.
no he literally is lmao.
Hes the best option we have under the current trump admin, this admin is a fucking meme bro.
Nobody tried, who believes that farce?
people who live in reality? They’ve been the two most real attempts in recent history.
There is no way they would allow someone to get on a roof this close.
Certainly not be on there for long when he already was spotted and reported to the police long before.
The ridiculous ‘wound’ that completely healed in 4 days,
If it were real he would also be under a pile of secret agents and you wouldn’t see an inch of him.
They certainly wouldn’t let him get up for the pompous posed picture with the raised fist.
A complete farce, you would have to be a gullible and not so smart american to believe this embarrassing pathetic spectacle.
brother, you’re a conspiracy theorist.
It’s questionable how he got up there, but evidently, he did, and they fucking killed him.
From what i’ve read, he crawled up there shortly before/after trump got up to speak, he hadn’t exactly been sitting up there the entire time. Trump literally was under a pile of secret agents, that was the first thing they did. It’s likely they confirmed shooter down by the point he stood up, if not, trump was just stupid. He’s done stupider things.
the “would” was definitely interesting, but it’s clearly not even a wound. So therefore, yes it could heal in four days, especially if you have extended healthcare for it.
Oh btw, that kid was reported to police, who weren’t in contact with secret service, for some reason. This is all known information. People were trying to draw attention to him, before he started shooting.
you must not be familiar with assassination attempts historically. Did you know some dude just walked up to shinzo abe and shot him point blank with a pipe shotgun? Surely that wasn’t real.
Everything you say or ‘what you read’ is demonstrably false.
From what i’ve read, he crawled up there shortly before/after trump got up to speak, he hadn’t exactly been sitting up there the entire time
IDK what kind of propagandised and filtered news you get in the banana republic.
https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/c51ydg792ggo
Even that article is wrong bcs there are plenty videos where the public see this dupe get on the roof 30 minutes before, not just “one kid”.
No way this would happen in reality.
I have followed this show realtime and didn’t buy it for a minute.
Reporting he was “shot trough the ear” and not having any sign of any wound 4 days later in 4K close ups is not possible.
Extended healthcare can’t do miracles. What a laughable excuse.
It’s likely they confirmed shooter down by the point he stood up,
Sure, do you actually believe the potocol is no to take into account a second shooter?
And you admit he got up after this.
Standing there wanting to get his shoes and then having his planned photo.
The SS stood somewhat around him, in no way were they ‘piled up’ on his as they should be constantly.
Shinzo Abe or other events are irrelevant.
OC attempts can happen, but here nothing adds up and you can’t but laugh at this pathetic spectacle or the fools believing it.
i didn’t say one kid saw him? And getting up there 20 minutes before the rally is not “a long time” that’s 20 minutes. Should they have known about it? Yes, did they? Yes. Did the ground police do anything about it? No, because they didn’t have functional communication.
i mean this is literally the one valid explanation for why this managed to happen at all, the only other option is that it was a complete conspiracy, and i’ve seen no evidence to support that, and given the fact that police, and secret service, are two different entities, i’m going to align with the former.
he wasn’t “shot through the ear” the reporting is just wrong. It’s evident from the video, from the bleeding, and from the wound, he simply wasn’t “shot in the ear” he was grazed by a bullet at best, cut his ear on the way down at worst.
for a minor injury? Yeah it can. I’ve seen 2nd degree burns go away in a couple of days from ointment. Shits wack when you have the right tools for the job.
that’s possible, but are there are any good circumstances for this to be the case? Even when he did stand up, SS was crowded around him, it would be very difficult to take a good shot from that point, at which point SS are likely watching like a hawk.
i mean yeah… If you watch the video, he literally does this. The most famous image of that year was literally him standing. Like idk why you’re acting like this is WITHOUT A DOUBT proof that it’s conspiracy, it’s evident that it happened.
not everybody thinks clearly in situations like this, especially old people, the job of the SS is to protect him, if they deemed it unimportant, they would’ve carted him off sooner.
you can literally watch the video, the center mass of his body is very clearly blocked, the head is not a particularly good target, as evidenced by the fact that he fucking missed.
I mean yeah, to this particular event, but do you think his killing was a conspiracy?
i mean, it’s literally just weird at best, i’ve seen weirder, look at any shooting through history. They’re all weird as fuck.
