So at the White House correspondents' dinner last night

A armed man rushed a checkpoint and was taken down after shots were fired...

I'm so jaded on politics I'm wondering if Trump orchestrated it to:
1) get his approval rating up and/or
2) keep from being roasted like he was last time he was there

Thank goodness the Secret Service agent that was shot had a vest and it worked.

Remember Hungary’s recent election?

Orban was polling very poorly leading up to the election (IIRC in the 20’s) and many thought he would cancel or postpone indefinitely the election…

…then the story broke that Putin wanted tRUMP to assist in staging a fake assassination plot to boost Orban…

When that story broke, I said…guess what tRUMP will try to pull before the midterms.

Count me among those who believe it was staged…

Trump loved it, in any event.

If this had happened in New Hampshire the guy could use the State Constitution as his legal defense.

Part First, New Hampshire Constitution
"Article 10
Text of Article 10:
Right of Revolution

Government being instituted for the common benefit, protection, and security, of the whole community, and not for the private interest or emolument of any one man, family, or class of men; therefore, whenever the ends of government are perverted, and public liberty manifestly endangered, and all other means of redress are ineffectual, the people may, and of right ought to reform the old, or establish a new government. The doctrine of nonresistance against arbitrary power, and oppression, is absurd, slavish, and destructive of the good and happiness of mankind.[1]"
@Diotrephes Thank you! I was unaware of this, but it is at least as sound legally as the absurd crap that tRUMP and his brainwashed cult claim !

Will the guy get a pardon?

Isn't it sad that probably at least 50% of the public felt the same for at least some time, and that probably 50% wish he had been successful?
@samueltyler2 Are they even trying to keep a tally this time around?
samueltyler2 · 80-89, M
@KunsanVeteran i think the numbers just rose too high and he lies every time he opens his mouth, they simply gave up.
@samueltyler2 Whatever the “official tally” climbed to, it was always destined to be an extreme undercount !

Sure think staged right off the bat. The entire left has been doing that since last night

A lotta folk are questioning the first attempt but nobody will ever know🤐

Doubt the Secret Service would have a hand in this
bookerdana · M
@KunsanVeteran no but the shooter would think that over long and hard,most of these guys are gunned down
@bookerdana I think it was understood by the shooter that his odds of survival were slim to none. The leverage most likely would be to save someone he truly cared about to the point he was willing to die for them…or keep his mouth shut if he didn’t.

This is how the mob did things. The way the mob thinks, so goes Demented Donnie.

And as I have frequently posted, I believe tRUMP has frontotemporal dementia. One of the classic features of FTD is loss of the inhibition that the frontal lobe largely regulates. In other words, tRUMP simply doesn’t give a ***censored*** whatever happens because of his actions.

@KunsanVeteran mainline media be like

🙄I'm sure this wasn't a set up before midterms

@chernobylplaygr0unds at the venue he was humiliated at 15 years or so ago by his most hated rival (Obama) - and just so happened to occur before the roasting began...
@Pretzel 🙄I'm so surprised

@chernobylplaygr0unds I have a paper bag you can breathe into if you need it

Trump has started throwing out the red meat by saying things like the shooter hates Christians - the shooter supported Pamala Harris - and other stuff like that. Cheers!
samueltyler2 · 80-89, M
@Nanoose how about his commrnt that "his ballroom" will have all the latest security technology and the Hilton would be unecessary!
Nanoose · 70-79, M
@samueltyler2 His ballroom. Not the peoples ballroom - his ballroom. Cheers!
Diotrephes · 70-79, M
@Nanoose =
the shooter supported Pamala Harris -

Are Pamala and Kamala twin sisters?
