Do you even know the firefighter's name? Did any of the proceeds from the merchandising of the event go to his family?Are you claiming the shooting was also fake, along with the firefighter that died?
His name was Corey Comperatore.Do you even know the firefighter's name? Did any of the proceeds from the merchandising of the event go to his family?

Why would you suppose it was trying to?Now, how does that even begin to answer the simple yes/no question I asked someone else?
So you're just attempting to troll?Did any of the proceeds from the merchandising of the event go to his family?

Are you accusing me of trolling? Pretty sure that kind of accusation is against the rules.So you're just attempting to troll?
Why do you take a question as an accusation?Are you accusing me of trolling? Pretty sure that kind of accusation is against the rules.
And So's Law. And projection.
Well, I'll be waiting for your evidence to prove that.No, there were real bullets fired by a registered Republican, but none of them struck Trump. His ear was cut when he was tackled.
If I were to ask you, which I would never do, "Why do you post like such a moron?", would you find that offensive? It would be "just asking questions" in the same vein as your "questions". I would be, if I were to ask such a thing, explicitly not calling you a moron but would merely asking why you post like one - which, again, I am not doing and would never do. Just an example.Why do you take a question as an accusation?
Baiting and goading.Seems rather defensive.
The assassination attempt is deadly serious and immoral and to be condemned!He can have all the fun he wants laughing about attempted political assassinations and people dying. Let's see how hard he's laughing when it all comes back to bite him later. He's clearly a short-term thinker.

If he had stayed down there would be posts talking about what a coward he wasThe assassination attempt is deadly serious and immoral and to be condemned!
But there is another issue here. I served in the Australian Military. In our Bootcamp we were drilled that when shots are fired, you follow the protocol or colleagues die. We would jog through the bush and randomly our Sarge would yell "BANG!" and we would instantly yell "Run! Down! Crawl! Observe! Aim! Fire!" A short dash to cover, dive down, crawl around, and check for incoming fire. So much for grunts in the bush.
I wrote about all this last year when it happened. It still makes me mad when I think about it. When shots are fired, those poor agents have a job to do. Get the President down, and then get him out of there! You assume the worst - that it could be coordinated - there could be multiple shooters. You put YOUR BODY on the President as a human shield.
Did Trump do the right thing - valuing his agents lives and complying with their instructions? NO! He paused for a photo-op. And MAGA cheer him on as a hero!I just see narcissistic opportunity and disregard for his agents lives! Anyone defending his narcissistic photo op is disregarding the men and women that put their lives on the line to defend their President.
If he doesn't want to obey the recognised drill - why should they bother putting their lives on the line for him? He was being a buffoon! The more fun we poke at that disgusting image, the better!
Yes, but what is it supposed to accomplish?It's a mirror.

Inarguably one of the most iconic moments in presidential history:If he had stayed down there would be posts talking about what a coward he was
Yes, but what is it supposed to accomplish?
Satire is often subjective. And, I suppose, the more one reveres the subject of that satire, the more one will object to it.He can have all the fun he wants laughing about attempted political assassinations and people dying. Let's see how hard he's laughing when it all comes back to bite him later. He's clearly a short-term thinker.
I guess we'll see.I wonder if he'll get around to having his Press office post satirical memes about Christian children being shot in Minneapolis, reasoning that if they're Christian they must be future MAGA voters. From what I've seen so far, it wouldn't surprise me. Let's see if he has any wisdom at all.
Even though other people died, surviving enemy fire and displaying courage in the face of enemy fire and death, has always been celebrated here in the United States.Someone died. Why are you celebrating this?
