President Donald Trump was evacuated from the White House Correspondents’ Dinner after multiple gunshots were heard in the ballroom.
One officer was shot, but he was “saved by the fact that he was wearing obviously a very good bulletproof vest,” Trump later told reporters at the White House.
The suspected shooter was identified later Saturday as Cole Allen of Torrance, California, a former senior law enforcement official briefed on the matter told MS NOW.
I’m betting this was all staged. Either that or Iran is trying to get him.
*Edit: Alternative Idea – what if this was one of his cultists who came to kill off the “fake news” media?
ah so THAT’S why he wanted to be at the correspondents dinner. Literally the other day it was reported how it was odd that Trump wanted to attend annnnnnd now we know why. this was staged.
I find it disheartening how instantaneously people will run with a half baked conspiracy theory that at best is typically “somewhat possible”.
Besides the fact that we should actually want evidence to believe something, trump doesn’t really seem to think ahead, so yeah I don’t think he’s repeatedly staged his own assassination attempts.
Lets see.
First dinner he’s ever attended.
white house leaks hes planning some big mic drop event.
several attendees have made statements about security being less than previous dinners. (Weird since its first time trumps attended, huh?)
Reporter tries to report on fox news about trump insiders telling her to be safe (before things even go down) and gets cut off mid sentance.
Someone still manages to get a gun through and gets juuuuust close enough to be a concern without being a threat.
A magically perfect opportunity to go on afterwards and justify the big golden ballroom he wants so bad.
Yeah, totally nothing to see here. Just some harmless coincidences, stop thinking so hard with your “conspiracies” and “theories”, libtards. /s
WOW. Yeah my first thought was staging too.
Does he think ahead? Of course not. But is this something some insecure 2-bit tinpot dictator would do in an attempt to self-legitimize? Well then of course he’s gonna copy that.
Hes also a creature of habit and repeats things for comfort, especially if it worked the first time (even if it never worked again afterwards, prime example being Venezuela, which lead to the quagmire of Iran, which isnt even resolved and already planning to attack cuba next)
Yeah let’s not let pesky things like “what in fuck good would this do for trump?” Get in the way of throwing spaghetti at the wall!
Be skeptical. Jesus Christ people.
Yeah, what would a guy who had a surge in popularity after a previous assassination attempt, think he could possibly get from another assassination attempt at a time when his poll numbers are not only historic low for him, but for the office of the presidency in general, with midterm elections coming up that have republicans predicted to lose big, probably to more aggressive leftists/liberals who will absolutely impeach him and 25th amendment him afterwards.
Such a mystery what he could gain from it and its convenient timing.
Be skeptical. It’s not hard.
Karoline Leavitt said the truth for once
Trump’s going to be so annoying about this.
“Man, people keep trying to shoot at me. So weird! Anyways, I’m gonna use this to show how both safe and unsafe the country is.”
Clearly, this is because transgender people are using the women’s restroom. Let’s round them up and “deport” them.
-Republicans, eventually
They’re not sending their best (assassins).
Why is everyone so bad at this?
Because it’s not real. This was Trump’s mic drop.
Right! He is re-solidifying his grip on the cult.
Except I dont think it’ll work, cause even the cultists are starting to think the big ear “shot” attempt was fake now… and I dont see how this blatantly stupid failure here is going to do anything to skew that opinion.
what if this was one of his cultists who came to kill off the “fake news” media?
People who know enough to know how to do it right now that it’s not the best idea, your efforts are better spent doing other things
What about the Epstein files ? Are their safe
The world needs professionals. Not amateurs.
