Would he be effective against a former president running for office again? What a puzzle

[-] blobjim@hexbear.net 20 points 1 month ago

TBH it's probably fake and lame, dude was standing for minutes after it happened

The part that gives me the most thought about it being planned was his response, he gets up and raises his fist? His security doesn't hold his head below cover and he just chills on stage for the photo op? If he was unexpectedly shot you'd think he would just be crying and shidding himself, maybe they are just poorly trained

Edit: In case anyone is reading this later it was definitely not likely to have been staged.

Yeah, Trump is not brave in the slightest. That's what makes it seem off to me.

Jesus. Last thing we need is for him to become a martyr

[-] TheDoctor@hexbear.net 49 points 1 month ago

Too late. Chuds are already acting like he died while praising him for being alive.

[-] Dickey_Butts@hexbear.net 26 points 1 month ago

Yeah worst case scenario. Should have got the Abe treatment

[-] quarrk@hexbear.net 2 points 1 month ago

That would have been worse tbh, every single Republican afterward would be even more openly fash, whereas this at least might fade in the background

[-] CommCat@hexbear.net 7 points 1 month ago

Looks like another John Hinkley jr shooter who can't aim. Trump is unharmed and doing a fist pump with a bit of blood on his face is a major PR win for Trump.

[-] Riffraffintheroom@hexbear.net 5 points 1 month ago

Why? No one else has the sauce like he does. And chuds are gonna chud out for the rest of our lifetimes anyway. Him dying wouldn’t be that different than him losing except libs have to roll back their blue maga shit and return to civility fetishism.

Damn that's gonna be his new fundraising shirt

~~Looks like it came up from his mouth, across his cheek, then hit his ear - was the shooter in the front-of-stage area?~~

Edit: nope, on a roof

[-] kleeon@hexbear.net 5 points 1 month ago

Apparently one of the bullets hit his teleprompter, which shot a shard of glass in his face

the liberal driller strikes again

[-] MrStalin@hexbear.net 15 points 1 month ago

joe biden should say he hired the shooter then i would vote for him

[-] InevitableSwing@hexbear.net 6 points 1 month ago

I had a nap and when I woke up I had no idea what going on. I was on Bluesky and on my main feeds filter out Biden | Kamala | Project 2025 | Trump

There were posts like this.

Welp here we go...

[Breaking news info graphic]

And somebody else posted...

The moron early-warning system is going off.

[Scott Adams tweet screengrab] This is on Biden

"What the ever loving fuck" - I said to myself. I should have simply clicked on my "Politics" feed which is only Biden | Kamala | Project 2025 | Trump but I'm always very sleepy when I wake up. So I came to Hexbear and that's then I learned what happened when I saw "LOL he got shot LMAOOOO". Sweet mother of god.
