i hope he thinks about how he was 2 inches away from death every time he's out in public pushing for violence
He's too narcissistic for that.
Chances are he'll believe what his Jesus followers are saying and think that Jesus DID actually save him because he's the chosen one
if i got almost shot in the head i'd probably quit and do something else instead 🤔
Can confirm, you don't even need to be shot in the head. It can be in the thigh.
It's infuriating that people have forgotten about how utterly horrid trump was as president. From disbanding the NSC pandemic unit which led to a bungled COVID response, pretending COVID was no big deal (leading to hundreds of thousands of unnecessary deaths compared to other leading economies), crashing the economy leading to massive inflation by running it hot and gutting tax revenues (the Economist was warning about this in 2018), and of course leading an insurrection against the United States. HOW FUCKING STUPID ARE PEOPLE WHO VOTE FOR THIS TURD?!?!?!?
"But Covid isn't a big deal and inflation is Obiden's fault"
- my family, definitely
I'm actually amazed Biden was too stupid to run ads reminding people of THIS!
LMAO he's gonna be your president soon.
The only thing he's going to be President of is the Rikers Island Book Club.
These calls for unity are empty. He spouted hatred since day 1 of his election run. I'm not fooled he had a "come to Jesus moment"
He still hates and has surrounded himself with the worst people in America. He may have survived an assassination attempt, he still doesn't have my vote.
There is one correct response to trump getting shot.
Thoughts and Prayers.
He's been using violent divisive rhetoric since day 1. He's been degrading political discourse into even less productive name calling, baseless claims, and stochastic terrorism. Reap what you sow. I'm not upset that trump was shot. I'm upset that someone took a shot at him.
Apparently, he was too busy playing golf to reach out to any of the other folks who got shot.
saw on r/conservatism, "Trump will undoubtedly pay for that person's funural." Ha, yeah fucking right!?
The greatest builder in the world still hasn't erected any structure for his wife's grave.
It's likely to have the opposite effect in this case.
He doesn't show anyone any empathy so no point in me doing so.

It changes the ass to hole ratio though.
I mean, it makes him more relatable to school children.

Getting shot by your own voter actually makes you even weaker than before
Historically, more often than not, when a narcissistic megalomaniac is victim of a close call of targeted violence against them, rather than them becoming more empathetic with the sadly large swathe of humanity that also often faces targeted violence, they just double down on their own paranoia.
Hitler survived at least 42 assassination attempts according to Wikipedia. Just saying.
At the end, he couldn't survive his own.
What a hero he was, fukken killed Hitler the mad lad!
IDK. If you actually hit, he'll never do anything bad anymore for the rest of his life.
His cronies might though. What if this dumbass thought he would actually make him a martyr to make his cause stronger. Who am I kidding. They aren't that smart.
Tbf people don’t usually go out of their way to shoot nice people.
Yeah they do. MLK, Kennedy, Lincoln, Reagan... MOST of the time the person is nice.
If you get shot in the asshole, then depending on the calibre you potentially could be more of an asshole.
He didn't get shot, he got hit by glass according to the secret service.
I won't shed any tears for Trump if and when he bites the dust, but it would've been far worse if the assassination was successful. It's not like the far right and Project 2025 would just disappear with Trump, not to mention guys like JD Vance are quite capable of taking his place and with less baggage.
Nah with how centralised the Republican effort is around Trump atm killing him would throw them into disarray for multiple years until they were able to summon up a similarly charismatic demagouge which outside of trump they simply don't have atm.
Part of me thinks the MAGA enthusiasm is a personality cult about Trump and can't be replicated. But you may be right about Republicans being capable of carrying his agenda post-Trump.
Only if you manage to shoot his ass off him.
Then we'd undeniably have a less of an asshole trump.
It does if the shooter could hit the broad side of a barn
~150 yards, wobbling target, small window of opportunity, and multiple well-trained counter-snipers lining you up, and you have to hit the head.
I'd say the guy made a hell of a shot.
Lots of people overestimate their marksmanship capabilities. 150 yard headshot with open sights on an AR? It's doable but harder than people give it credit for.
Of course Morpheus says that as his shades reflect Neo being held at gunpoint.
But that's in the Matrix
We're all in the Matrix.
I would have to agree, I assume?
Donald Trump is a pedophile, it doesn't matter how many blood capsules he pops to pretend a BB Gun hit him.
