Breaking From MSNBC:  

NEW: Two senior U.S. law enforcement officials tell NBC News there is a growing concern in law enforcement circles that this may have been a serious attempt on the life of former President Donald Trump

 

"May have been a serious attempt on the life of ... "

Was there something about a bullet nicking his ear in a shot that would have been fatal an inch or two to the right that made it non-serious?

Terrible day. The demonization of the opposition needs to be dialed back, by everyone. That someone attempted to assassinate a presidential candidate and murdered at least one attendee at a political event in this country is sickening. We are all to blame.

Trump has an open path to turning this into an epic success. A near death experience can change a person. If he can lead the way, and exemplify a less divisive approach and dial back some of his own aggressive rhetoric, he could win in a Reagan- Mondale style rout.

Much as I dislike the man, I'm grateful he's okay. That mother fuking fist pump was epic. Inspirational and instantly iconic. It can be a catalyst to a much brighter path than what many fear will happen instead. He's been given an incredible opportunity. He needs to grab it and be a leader for everyone. I honestly hope he does; that's a much better outcome than more violence. 

Surviving an assassination attempt isn't going to make an egomaniac less egomaniacal.  You lefties are so naive.

It's an OK and accurate headline. His ear was shot in an assassination attemp. Despicable act, and he's a lucky fock.

I can only imagine it would take a nuclear bomb to elevate it to a "serious" attempt. 

"Nuclear bomb nicks Trump's ear in serious assassination attempt."

Makes it sound if they were aiming for his ear and succeeded.

Accurate my arse.

He might, and is, a sh*tbag, but it is a sad thing to happen here…

It's not that sad.  Sure we don't want people shooting politicians, but let's be real.  

I mean it's obvious what happened.  Some guy allowed himself to be brainwashed by all the lefty talking points and took a shot at what everyone called a threat to democracy, blah, blah, blah.

Shìt, these squistion and thegeneral guys actually believe he is going to install himself as a dictator and all that nonsense.  Of course one of these idiots was going to act on all of that.

I mean unless we're supposed to be mourning what?  The death of responsible journalism?  That's been long gone.  The effect of social media on the weak minded?  That ship done sailed a long time ago too.

If you don't want to watch all of this video I suggest listening starting at 5:40 on his comment on Trump.

This mfer is one lucky bastard.  If the shot is a straight miss, the dem media would act like he wasn't in any real danger, and the army of NPCs on the left wouldn't be so sad at the state of US politics.  Obviously a direct hit would be suboptimal for his ability to campaign.  But a graze?  Man talk about absolutely perfect.  You couldn't have planned it better.

Are you sad?  Are you crying?  Or are you just somber? What about exactly?  Do you get that if you have to be sad about this, you should then be sad about all violence which in turn means you must be sad at all times?  Or do you only get sad when there is violence against famous people?  Or perhaps you don't realize there is violence on an second by second basis all around the world?

I get that's what we're supposed to say, but we've allowed our media to become a propaganda machine.  What did we think was going to happen?

Biden's disasterous debate performance newswise takes a back seat to the Trump assassination attempt, followed by this slowly fading into the background while some other 2024 election nuttery ensues. 

As I've said before, it's a relatively long way until November, and much craziness will occur between now and then.

Finicky voters have short memories. They ebb and flow in the tides of the moment.

Political violence does bum me out. I was sad on January 6. I’m sad today. I was sad when there was a shooting at that baseball game. Etc.

I’m sorry you think that’s fake or something?

It's not officially an assassination until they start using the perp's middle name.

The freaks over at 4Chan are saying it isn’t him. Or maybe it’s not the guy everyone is sharing the photo of. Supposedly there’s a video of that guy saying it’s not him. But I dunno, can’t really believe anything on that site
