Posted BEFORE he said this
This Incident Was Staged. Full Stop.
At this point Trump could be attacked by multiple rabid wolverines and people wouldn't believe he didn't give them cocaine beforehand to get a good photo op. He's such a pussy that any time he shows indifference or "courage" it's fake AF and he has -zero- acting skill
I enjoyed every minute of your “rant.” Your words and your expressions are a mirror of what I’m thinking and feeling. Thank you for always being there and talking things through with us @wajali.bsky.social
Let’s first try a new president and see if that doesn’t fix the “problem.”
Ah, it was a gotta-have-the-ballroom promo event.
Breaking news: Roadrunner of LooneyTunes fame, armed with ACME brand weapons, outsmarts all of secret service by being….. {checks notes} really fukin’ fast. m.youtube.com/watch?v=fnSo...
Real question: you say the “attack” did happen as reported. You say we have evidence. Do we? In the video I’ve seen it’s unclear that the suspect is armed. I haven’t seen video of him shooting the wounded agent. Perhaps that agent was hit by friendly fire. Has the press seen evidence that I haven’t?
I'm not buying any of this, it's another Trump staged stunt to revive sympathy and distract from the cost of living amongst dimwitted Trump supporters. It'll also give the now obedient press corp something to write about, again distracting from the disastrous war.
Trump makes pitch for White House ballroom after security incident 🙄🤡
Straight out of Trump’s playbook. Staged so he doesn’t have to risk being humiliated. And we can’t have him on camera falling asleep tonight. He sets it up for attention. Same as he called in fake stories about himself to the NYC papers as John Barron. So dumb. He’s an attention whore.
Sounds like he wants to build a basement and stay in it.
His polls were in the toilet. He had to do something 🤷🏻♀️
If he's not a paid actor, he hates child molesters.
It was probably another fake assassination attempt.
When Kash heard shots he got excited
Never let a chance to exploit an event go to waste.
Don't worry he'll be blaming the radical left soon enough..
We need a pfftthh! emoji.
Never stop being you Waj!
He's the only one that gets shot at regularly.
So in asking for the ballroom, the WHCD will become a White House event? Instead of an independent event organized by the press corps?
Anyone thinking the attack was staged (so that Trump could plug his ballroom) are overestimating by orders of magnitude how competent these idiots are.
FUCK COLE TOMAS ALLEN! These stupid fucking morons and their absurd thoughts that they can kill a President do nothing but amplify the very evil they hate. Now the GOP has all they need for the midterms. These selfish pricks are going to continue to be the reason they stay in power
