Good theory could be. But man trump is one lucky man that easily could have been fatal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Fun Factory Posted July 15 Share Posted July 15 2 hours ago, villa89 said: The Democrats are more worried about not losing loads of seats, they know they've lost the presidency already. Anyone who could replace Half dead Joe knows that they are on a hiding to nothing. They will just wait for four years' time when the Democrats will have a very good chance to win after four years of Trump. Seats? In the mid term, they crushed the republicans yet it seems the voting population seems to prefer to re-elect a crook instead of a frail old man.

It's absolutely astonishing to me that they knew there was a shooter, they're tracking him, and they aren't immediately rushing to cover Trump and get him off the stage Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, Trump was reaching for his ear after the 1st gunshot, that was the one that hit. I think the shooter got 3 shots off before the snipers responded.

sidcow Posted July 15 VT Supporter Share Posted July 15 I reckon he registered as a Republican voter just to throw people off the scent. Odd to have given to a Dem cause in 2021 then register Republican. Have they confirmed the dates he registered? Wouldn't be surprised if it was in the planning process for this.

Or maybe it’s as simple as a 20-year old (or even younger, haven’t seen his age at time of registration) not knowing his arse from a hole in the ground and changing his mind I have also seen much speculation that the $15 donation was actually made by his grandfather.

Panto_Villan Posted July 15 Share Posted July 15 Vance is one of the major intellectual forces behind Trumpism / MAGA these days. Quite a dangerous character imo, a lot less of a clown than many of the other MAGA characters. Also an extreme opponent of Ukraine aid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
