I am Groot Posted July 14 Report Share Posted July 14 5 hours ago, CdnFox said: To be clear I don't blame the dems for shooting trump - that was the shooter's decision. But the dems have spent all their time and energy claiming trump was responsible for jan6 because of the language he used and they have DEFINITELY been using extremely inflammatory language about trump. Yeah, okay, but it was Trump's extremely inflammatory language that inspired those people on Oc 6. Or have you forgotten his speech where he told them they'd have to 'fight like hell' or else 'you won't have a country anymore'. And inflammatory language is his stock in trade. The guy recently said that if he's elected he wants to put Liz Cheney on a 'televised military trial' (wtf?). He said of Biden 'Let's indict the motherf*cker! Let's indict!'. He calls him 'crooked Joe'. And let's not forget "if I don't get elected it's gonna be a bloodbath." And "if we don't win this election I don't think you're going to have another election".

Considering Democrats have engaged in vile political violence from mass rioting to multiple assassination attempts of Republicans over the last few years, all Republicans should be on high alert from these crazy people Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You mean in the "minds" of conspiracy kooks. 10 hours ago, robosmith said: Bobby Kennedy was shot with a 22 handgun. Not sure he had SS protection, though. Could have been before candidates got that. Yeah, so? The shooter was immediately grabbed and arrested. A 22 hand gun is not a rifle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am Groot Posted July 14 Report Share Posted July 14 10 hours ago, User said: You completely missed the point. This is not about who actually helped to create this hateful environment, it is about the obvious double standards in how the mainstream media and other pundits lay that blame on Republicans. Remember Gabby Giffords? Lay blame on Republicans for what? For saying nutty things? They tend to say nutty things more than the Democrats. And given their ratings and how widespread and influential their broadcasts are I don't think you can pretend FOX isn't mainstream. A huge chunk of Americans watch it.

Fluffypants Posted July 14 Report Share Posted July 14 2 minutes ago, I am Groot said: The shooter was a registered Republican. Pennsylvania is a close primary state and he may of registered as a Republican so he could vote in their primary. A bunch of people did that to try to stop Trump from getting the nomination.

Nationalist Posted July 14 Report Share Posted July 14 @BeaverFever ... @I am Groot ... @robosmith ... @myata ... @Libbies ... You started this "culture war" and now you all wanna find an excuse...any excuse...to deflect and deny. Well guess what "Tweenkie Brigade"...you wanted to drag society through the mud. To punish society for its history, it's culture, it's very nature. So no...you pack o' nerdy degenerates...you cannot hide this time. At least have the spine to face the inevitable results of your childish garbage! Quote Its so lonely in m'saddle since m'horse died. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Perspektiv Posted July 14 Report Share Posted July 14 10 hours ago, robosmith said: I'm sure Trump will try to play the martyr That's the thing. He was shot. He won't need to. Even the politicians who hate him the most, are obligated to condemn the act. The media. Everyone. Anyone failing to do so, are part of the problem. Mocking Trump, who is okay, is literally throwing dirt at the innocent civilian who lost their lives. Its a bad look, publicly, plus further grows and energizes his base. He literally punched in his victim card heading into this fall's election. Only thing left is him becoming trans, and it would be over. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I haven’t seen anything reported about his personal life yet but let’s assumed based on the attack he is unhinged. Unhinged and has an AR-15. A familiar pattern in USA Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Perspektiv Posted July 14 Report Share Posted July 14 Title is misleading (of thread). He was shot at his rally, but by someone who didn't attend. This is an assassination attempt. Period. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he was at all spiritual, it makes it likelier he will know being president again is his destiny. You know he doesn't believe in God, right? Doesn't go to church. Has never read the bible. And does not abide by its teachings. In fact, he's broken just about every commandment multiple times. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Perspektiv Posted July 14 Report Share Posted July 14 1 minute ago, BeaverFever said: No, the shooter simply missed It simply wasn't his time. Everything happens for a reason. History will only remember that it wasn't Trump's time. In the fall, if he becomes president, it will confirm that history. That it was his destiny. 9 minutes ago, BeaverFever said: He’s not If he believes in God, he knows someone was looking out for him. Whether you believe or not, is irrelevant. 10 minutes ago, BeaverFever said: He “knows” this because he’s a malignant narcissist Thats irrelevant, because ultimately it will be Americans making that choice. Not him. This may be enough to nudge millions of undecided people. Especially so, if he is graceful in how he handles this. So far, he has immediately provided condolences to those who were killed. He handles this like a proper leader, and some may forget his past. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's never shown the slightest regret at anything he's done, at anyone he's hurt. And he's been acting like this all his life, ever since his father declared him incorrigible and sent him to military school in hopes it would straighten him out (it didn't).
