There's been another assassination attempt on Trump

[Larniavc]

To be fair he was never convicted, they didn't have evidence of a crime. They had to take it to civil court in front of a biased judge to score "smear the presidential candidate we don't like" points in the media.

So there's that.

So being guilty of sexual assault in a civil case not as awful as being guilty in a criminal court? When the act is the same? Really? If it was your daughter he did it to would you view civil as less bad than criminal?

That give credence for his being assassinated?

I see Mr Trump is wasting no time in laying blame:

Former President Trump said President Biden and Vice President Harris’ "rhetoric" is what is causing him to be "shot at," following the second assassination attempt against him since July, while telling Fox News Digital that the suspected gunman "acted" on "highly inflammatory language" of Democrats.

"He believed the rhetoric of Biden and Harris, and he acted on it," Trump said of the gunman in an interview with Fox News Digital. "Their rhetoric is causing me to be shot at, when I am the one who is going to save the country, and they are the ones that are destroying the country — both from the inside and out."

Trump blames Biden-Harris 'rhetoric' for latest assassination attempt, says he will 'save the country'

EXCLUSIVE: Former President Trump said President Biden and Vice President Harris’ “rhetoric" is what is causing him to be “shot at" after the second assassination attempt against him since July.

Trump is right on this!

The SS could gave closed off the entire golf club. But Trump owned the golf club. He'd lose money. He'd lose business.
The SS might have closed it, but Trump chose his revenue stream over precautions.
And, as has been said before, based on overwhelming evidence, Democrats say Trump threatens Democracy and tells people to vote.
Telling people to vote means encouraging democracy--for honest people with pure hearts.

Liberal propaganda.

To those blaming Trump for his own assassination attempt -

Tell me what actions he has done that makes a violent public death acceptable in your world?

Great question! Let’s see who has the guts to actually answer.

Trump is right on this!

Trump is right that a support of Nikki Haley and Vivek Ramaswamy took cues from the left?

You want me to claim Mr Trump deserved to be shot? How is that on topic, oh arbiter of forum rules?

"Who to blame" is not exclusively the topic of the thread.
Read the thread title and post #1.

So…. are you going to follow up this post with how Vance has more recently said he was wrong about Trump?

No need. Once Donald got him, he will, of course, support this American Hitler, so-called by Vance.

I never heard his explanation on why his former assessment was wrong or mistaken. Do you have it?

By the way, is it ironic that Donald himself canned the red flag order, the one that said mentally unstable people shouldn't have guns, let alone assault rifles?

Anyone who has been adjudicated mentally ill cannot own firearms.
It has to be adjudicated though. A judge has to be involved.

Before Trump is exposed to the wild the SS is responsible for securing the area. This means making sure any and every position that Trump can be shot from is secured.

Clearly, they didn't bother, it's a miracle this was stopped since it appears nothing more than dumb luck the shooter was even spotted. (All praise, glory and honor be to God)

So my question is, is the SS just going to let every dangerous terrorist take shots at Trump until November?

When are they going to ACTUALLY do their job?

The Secret Service did do their job. They located a threat and eliminated it before Trump was in any danger of being harmed.

Suspect did not fire his weapon, Trump was never in his line of sight

The suspect arrested in connection with an apparent assassination attempt on Donald Trump did not fire at the Secret Service agent who spotted a rifle in the treeline at the former president’s Florida golf club, officials said today.

During a news conference, Ronald Rowe, the agency’s acting director, said that Trump was moving through the fifth fairway around 1:30 p.m. when a Secret Service agent “engaged” the suspect, Ryan Routh.

Trump was not in his line of sight at the time, Rowe said.

He was 300 to 500 yards from Trump and he had a scope.

He was 300 to 500 yards from Trump and he had a scope.

Unless it was an x-ray scope and his rifle was loaded with magical bullets of infinite penetration, I don't think it would have been useful. You generally need to have a clear line of sight to something in order to have any hope of shooting it, even with an optic. Golf courses generally have hills and trees on them, and it's perfectly plausible that you could be 300-500 yards away from someone on a golf course without being able to see them, no matter how much magnification you had on whatever optic you were using.

I'm just stating a fact. If that SS agent hadn't seen the barrel sticking through the fence things could have been a lot worse
Do you feel the need to give the impression that Trump was never in any real danger?
" It was just some guy with an AK waiting to shoot Trump , no big deal, he got caught before he had a good shot at him"

The man never had a visual on Trump and didn't have the opportunity to become a real threat.

He saw it, because he was looking for threats as he is trained to do. Inspecting a fence line would be a routine procedure.
