those outside the use immediately knew he was faking, and right wingers, ooh look a conspiracy theorists
I am not sure if was staged or not. But after his post as Christ and attacking the pope, his numbers with Christians were really low.
It’s a coincidence this person made a big post attacking Christians just before. For sure will help his numbers with this group
Personally I believe it’s fake because he’s alive. When have the police ever not taken the opportunity to shoot someone?
catholics, hes totally cool with evangelicals, and fundamentalists.
Dunno, the media is loudly spinning him into a hero. And average low-info Americans tend to believe what they’re told.
a media owned by conservatives that is.
Indeed, another staged attempt by the Government of Putin.
If you go to Reddit r/conservative it’s selling. It’s always the same the attacker donated like 20 dollars os something to Democrats one time.
My fear they could use this to take out freedoms, spy on peoples social media, or even worse say it’s a mental health problem be critical of them and start to get so called “dangerous” people by their speech.
Yeah but conservatives don’t believe in mental health, remember? That’s why American healthcare practically considers it an indulgence.
It’s more likely the gunman was there to shoot at the press that TFG has vilified for the last ten years than an AA on his corpulent personage and his minions.
This second assassination theatre production is why we need to release the trump/epstein Files! He was reading a prepared statement very soon thereafter. It had to have been pre-written.
i believe its the 3rd, the first one is what got him election support, the 2nd one is shortly after he elected i dont think it made much news.
The dude is gonna drop dead pretty soon anyway. He’s starting to look like Palpatine.
palpatine is actually smart and powerful, and it was suppose to represent mitch mcconnell. because mitch was the mastermind in the senate during his first term and after, into stalling until he got re-elected again.
It’s quite likely Trump (possibly other presidents) has a pre-written statement when someone tries to shoot him (because it will keep happening)
There’s probably no conspiracy theory in play, but I do think it’s funny that the first WHCD he attends as president because he hates the event and doesn’t understand it ends as soon as it starts because of a gunman. Creating a gunman distraction to avoid getting roasted by the press is not beyond Trump but also who out there doesn’t want to see him dead at this point? It’s just that I’m not sure which answer Occam’s Razor falls at this point because false flag and honest attempt seem about equal likelihood!
So apparently one of the awards they were going to hand out tonight was for investigative journalism relating to the Epstein files…
I do like the idea of doing drastic, insane stuff to get out of awkward social situations. Best I’ve heard so far is Clarence Thomas trying to repeal Loving v. Virginia so he wouldn’t have to file for divorce.
and clarence is also in the epstein files
Occam’s taco… Why not both?
Wait, what did I miss?
Not even a side character sacrified, bad writing.
He then said that the episode underscored why the White House needed beefed up security, and its own ballroom.
And there it is
the dot com of that name is available for 20k. the dot org redirects to idk. i’m not doing the rest but we could start a school and make an edu
trump, with an ulterior motive? NO WAY! I’D NEVER HAVE THOUGHT IT POSSIBLE.
Hanes has more ballroom.
If the attacks are all fake, its incredibly poor false flag, because nobody feels bad for the prick except his absolutely ardent fans.
If they’re real, it should prove to everyone how absolutely hated he is, because no other US president in recent memory has had two assassination attempts that were publicly reported.
putin did plenty of false flags to garner support, and act as a distraction it worked for him.
Three. There was the staged rally shooter, then they caught a guy trying to get into Mar a Lago with a gun, now this one.
Four. There was also the guy with a gun at the golf course, waiting in the bush
3 if you count that homeless guy who was caught at the golf course
4 there were 2 in Florida
I assume you mean captain car bomb with the cyber truck? Wasn’t he after Elon tho?
Nope, some other guy with a shotgun went there while dumpy was away.
All amateurs, take an example from Oswald
deleted by creator
Gerald Ford survived two attempts in the span of like two weeks. Three if you count airplane stairs
four if you count homer
I wasn’t born when Ford was president, so not exactly “recent memory” for me 😂
100% staged.
Yup. Probably a polymarket thing too.
I can’t decide which is funnier, Kash Patel being cucked in a real active shooter situation or Kash Patel being cucked in a staged active shooter situation.
hey mister small hands Miller was using her pregnant wife as a human shield.
They’re not the only ones to pull shit, they’re just bad at it…
Like, they picked something he hates and never goes to, and made a big thing about him going. It makes sense now that it was never going to happen and they were just drawing as many eyes as possible.
I saw Sports Center for the first time in like a decade last weekend, they were covering Wrestlemania as if it was an actual competition. Even when one of the “top 10” was someone openly cheating, and then they did an interview about how much work it took.
Like, the weirdest part was it felt like modern “political analysis” where everyone just pretends it’s not rigged and the current “champ” is a blatant cheat.
Because it’s all fake. They are faking culture and forcing it down our throats. All these YouTubers coming out of nowhere acting fucking stupid like clavicular? That’s Peter Thiels doing. Fake fake fake.
Instead of following culture and reporting on it as it happens organically they are faking culture and forcing us to fall in line. That’s why everything feels fucking wrong now.
And, the worst part, they are using the third world to do it for pennies. Destroy democracy for literally a hundred bucks a month just repost this shitty YouTube/kick/twist propaganda. We are so fucked.
for a while i used to think wrestlemania is just drama for dudes too macho to admit they like musical theatre. it’s delightful and their fanbase is wonderfully welcoming. there’s a really good reason a lot of the other special needs kids watched professional wrestling, and it’s because the other fans accept them for who they are.
This is why they were reporting about that “leak” that trump was going to say something stupid, to get people to watch. It’s like some corny soap opera writing
covering Wrestlemania as if it was an actual competition.
This has a name: Kayfabe.
Right…
And on the wrestling broadcast it makes sense.
A third party doing it on any day besides April 1st is different
What does the E in ESPN stand for?
Egrets. it’s to let us know it’s for birds, and birds are fake, and since birds are fake they include some of the fake sports for their bird fans
3 days ago there was leak saying that he plans to stage something to leave the event earlier.
Was there ? Or are you just saying that?
Thanks. There’s already a lot of contradictory information being posted about the whcd event, so the more sources we can refer to, the better.
There was. It was “leaked” that he was going to say something stupid and then leave. Most likely to get people to watch and see this bs.
How am I getting called conspiracy idiot for saying same about ear shooting
because right wingers believes in their version of conspiracy, when a conspiracy actually happens with valid evidence they call it fake.
Because you are, if you think that was a set up.
Don’t know whats wrong with you, the fatlanders, that everything for you is a conspiracy. Have you thought that maybe there is something wrong with your brains?
Because my brain can do reasoning and doesn’t need 100% evidence to function
Have you thought about maybe trying to construct an argument instead of insulting people? I know It’s easier than proving your point, but come on we can do better than this.
I don’t even really agree that it was a set up. I just think you’re coming off as insulting and pretentious for no reason.
Wake me up when they don’t miss.
They will always miss unless it is a real assassination backed by super powerful people. It really is not that hard to understand
I don’t understand why really powerful people don’t want him dead.
He’s started a war that has caused massive supply chain issues, he’s introduced insane tariffs that have ramped up prices for component parts and called supply chain issues, he’s introduced hostile domestic policies that have reduced international tourism in the United States, he’s threatened companies that try claim their tariff money back except CEOs will have to claim the money back or they’ll get sued by their shareholders thus putting the CEOs in an impossible position, ICE keep raiding factories and warehouses arresting foreign nationals even though they’re the only people who will work in those facilities causing workforce shortages, ditto for farms, and he’s causing international incidents which are resulting in less global trade and a lack of demand for American produced goods.
Everyone’s losing money because of this including the rich and powerful so they may decide that they want to replace him with someone who’s capable of thinking through the consequences of their actions. Or at least someone who is more easily controlled.
So for those of you like me who hadn’t heard the news before seeing this, apparently some guy rushed through the metal detector area at the White House correspondents dinner, but was stopped by a volley of shots from security staff.
A bit like rushing Area 51 but if someone tried to solo the mission.
Guess I get breaking news from lemmy now.
