    Are you really just going to go fully into “it was a false flag” within minutes of an attempted assassination?

    Staged it as a political stunt? Him getting grazed by a bullet? While he’s already AHEAD?

    Jesus. We’re in dark times. Please keep your wits about you. The project to avoid falling into fascism does not get easier by having more people break with reality.

      Yes. Because it’s stage blood and he’s already reported as fine. He’s also desperate and a history of hokey stage acts. He’s an actor turned politician and he knows he can’t win on merit.

        Was the shooter a crisis actor? Did he fake this because he’s planning to rig the election?

        Uh…I don’t know if you’re keeping up on current events, but he was already up 8 points before he was shot.

        This sealed the election.

          Why would I be commenting on the election when I think he staged a shot? You are making it about the election, not me.

      Thank you. The number of people insisting that it’s fake is insane. There are reports that the shooter and an audience member are dead.

      While I dont want to debate if it is a false flag or not. Isn’t the play to yell it is fake from every rooftop? Because regardless of the shooters motive, Trump will blame Biden and the radical left.

          They’re talking about how to win an election.

          You know, the thing Blues have been so desperately shouting on all platforms? The “VOOOOTTTTTTT” that incessantly appears here?

          I’m not sure why I’m surprised liberals are just rolling over and waiting to die instead of doing literally anything to increase their chance of winning.

          Sounds like 2025 isn’t such an existential threat after all to the DNC.
