Speculation that it was fake whilst someone was losing their life on the floor. Classy as always [Post edited 14 Jul 2024 7:52]

I don't think it is right to piggy back on this turn of events to promote one's own political colours.
My hope is that political discourse improves, and it needs to. Internationally and domestically. That is what my OP is getting at. |
Why not? If it was a Biden who was shot at then people would. It’s simple, people get uncomfortable talking about terrorism when it’s a white person who commits it. |  | | |

Scroll up and you’ll see conspiracy theories about it being ‘fake’. | | | |

Terrorist act or otherwise, it has no bearing on my own political views. Like I said, it was an act I don't condone. | |

Your reply was to Mercian, who was one of the first to suggest he believed it wasn't a stunt. | |

Was my immediate thought, but cant really tell.
My second thought was "staged". Which is a ridiculous conspiracy theory, but my god the boost he will get from this could consign the world to disaster. |
Absolutely my thought to.
His strategists are briefing it will propel him to victory and “change the narrative of Trump to a victim”
Trump also got up and mouthed “fight, fight, fight” which someone who is so scared of security as him doesn’t add up..
My thoughts are to the innocent audience members killed or injured |  | | |

There are a few messy and vague details coming out now, we have the identity of the assassin but no idea of his motive:
'Some information is emerging about the political affiliations of 20-year-old Thomas Matthew Crooks, who the FBI has named the as the “subject involved” in Trump’s “assassination attempt”.
The Associated Press news agency, citing voter records, reported that Crooks was a registered Republican in Pennsylvania.
Crooks also donated $15 to a progressive political action committee on January 20, 2021, the same day US President Biden was inaugurated into office, according to the AP, citing campaign finance records.'

We know that this person was shot dead by security forces and that one other person is dead and two critically injured, but were they victims of the assassin or caught in the crossfire ?
'One person was killed and two others injured. All three victims are adult males, according to law enforcement'

Beyond that I am wondering, but grateful, that no one else on the stage or behind Trump appears to fall when the bullet (or pellet) goes through his ear ? If there were five shots then what happened to the other four ? |  |

That’s his election win sewn up I reckon.
Was prob going that way anyway. |
Secret Service protocol being broken, exposing his head and torso, while they have no idea if there is an active shooter still.
All so Trump can shout “fight, fight, fight” to the crowd.
Violence is deplorable. The capitalising on it is worse | | | |

Their was one Republican senator on the BBC who blamed it among other things on, wait for it, Universal Healthcare. Not on the fact that there are more guns legally owned than there are people, never that but on the fact that people can see a doctor without paying $250 just for the appointment. Damn you Universal Healthcare you violent piece of crap. [Post edited 14 Jul 2024 5:37]

Turns out the shooter was a Republican!
Dem’s will still be blamed though! |  | | |

This is where we have to be careful with information/disinformation. Wearing republican garb doesn't necessarily make someone republican. | |

I despise Trump but I did like his show of defiance. An old man injured in an assassination attempt stands up as quickly as he could and pumps his fist in the air. I know what it is like to be shot at and it is an incredibly frightening experience even for a 24 year old Lance Corporal in The British Army with 5 years service. That took balls. |
He’s got away with so much he thinks he’s invincible. |  |

I think it will do the trick. With Biden hamstring already, the election is a foregone conclusion now. And Trump's rhetoric continues to be agressive and to encourage this stuff.
The reason for this, of course, is that guns are easy to get so any loon with an agenda can have a go. | | | |

The Labour Party would be in trouble then according to you given they’ve spent the last 10 years demonising the white working class. Doesn’t excuse killing though. |
This is a good 'un. The Labour party have spent 10 years demonising white working class people.
Please support your assertion, with examples as necessary. | | | |

You now have the very difficult question of what outcome would have been better for the world.
Uncomfortable thinking. |
You can thank God that the assassination attempt wasn't successful, unless you are actually pushing for a civil war. It is incredible how weak some people's belief in democracy is when there is a candidate that they don't like. People even talk about him being fascist. There is nothing more fascist than using violence to dispose of your enemies. It's a very awkward situation for the Democrats because they have been dehumanizing Trump to such an extent that they irresponsibly left room for political violence. | | | |

I don't condone this at all, but this is definitely the risk you take when you use divisionism to gain clout. This kind of rings back to what they were saying in commons about improving the kind of language they used.
Scary times, but when you play with fire you risk getting burned. |
Ah that must be why renowned divisionist JFK got shot. America has cranks, those cranks can easily get their hands on guns.
That's the problem. |  |

Already seeing stuff about "the establishment". Which fails to note that a rich fat white man with hereditary influence and wealth, who leads the Republican party and has been president IS the establishment.
Will be fascinating to see how this is condemned, whilst still justifying Capitol Hill... |
It will be even more interesting how people try to slyly justify an assassination attempt while still condemning Trump's vague role in the Capitol Hill events. | | | |

Not just the United States, assassination attempts go on all over the World. Civil and civic society feels like it should be a right but all too often seems nothing more than an aspiration. | |

You might find that Trump managed to dehumanise himself without any need for assistance. |  |
