It will just add to the mythos of Trump. They practically deify him at this point. Now they can say he is so tough he took a bullet or god must have been watching over him (of course that will turn into trump now is 'special' and 'touched' by, and doing God's will or something)

Not like a cult AT ALL.

I agree. She needs to resign or be fired immediately. The investigation don't change the fact that Trump was almost assassinated.

The worst part is that the Director was a woman, amirite?

No that only matters in your mind on how you imagine people on the right think.

What specific evidence in that tweet you “agreed with” suggests the Director was at fault for any mistakes that happened on an operational level?

Just trying to understand exactly why you think she should resign.

I don’t even believe that 34% number.

That's not getting answered by him


I posted well ago that even the USSS director at time of Regan attempt, remained at post til he retired in Dec 1981.

And I don’t imagine it - I just look at my social media feeds.

Then why not do what every other politician has done that was shot? Release the medical data, have the doctors who treated him hold a press conference and describe the treatment given? Why the secrecy?

Everything you just said has already been put out there by the cult. That’s why he’s lying about it, IMO.

The facts don't matter to the idiots with pitchforks. They only want their pound of flesh.

SFL: can you post the poll itself, it’s paywalled for me. A comment under the tweet you posted points out that this poll was taken the day after the shooting, when we had very little info on the shooter and everyone was speculating. Even then less than 15% of democrats truly believe it, the remainder was in the “somewhat” credible category. Fully 14% of Republican men either fully believe it or think it somewhat credible.

Last thing I will say is that it takes a whole lot of cognitive dissonance for you to post an attempt to criticize people for believing a conspiracy theory. Like you are breathtakingly devoid of self-awareness. The next post from you that I read was one promoting a different type of conspiracy theory.

A friend of mine that's black posted this the other day. It may be going around the black community, lol. Perhaps the "inroads" Trump is "making" with the black community isn't all that.




PS, a Mexican friend of mine posted this, lol.

I’m no expert. Good friend did her residency at an inner city hospital emergency surgery. Constant gun shot wounds. As soon as she saw a picture said it was a graze wound.
