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.

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 We live in a ugly period of time.

@Pretzel …an ugly time of tRUMP’s own making !

Pretzel · 70-79, M

@KunsanVeteran he's had a LOT of help - or should I say co-conspirators?

samueltyler2 · 80-89, M

@KunsanVeteran not entirely! The country had a chance to prevent this, twice!

KunsanVeteran · M

@Pretzel Always! And he always has his scapegoats. And he never, EVER accepts any responsibility.

This is his playbook. Always was, is now, and always will be!

Consequently, he has ZERO credibility.

@KunsanVeteran I still remember his "coming to earth from heaven" photo op coming down the escalator - thinking "who in the )*()Y would ever vote for this clown"

@KunsanVeteran the media seems to have stopped posting the total number of his lies.

@Pretzel and refusing convict him for insurrection. Mitch and his other accomplices refused to do the right thing.

@KunsanVeteran i watched the movie Nuremberg recently, it is so germane for our time!

KunsanVeteran · M

@samueltyler2 Exactly correct

KunsanVeteran · M

@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.

KunsanVeteran · M

@samueltyler2 Whatever the “official tally” climbed to, it was always destined to be an extreme undercount !
