He’s a big Trump supporter.

If he’s under the knife again, it does mean they think he’s strong enough to endure it.

That is probably a decent sign. At least I sure hope it is.

It could mean it was an act of desperation too. I hope not.

I wish this guy all the best.

He’s in worse condition than we are being told. He probably is near death. He may be the first death in the Second Civil War.

Unless there's complications that can't wait.

Sadly, HL, I think all you say is true. We pray for him almost non-stop. “Pray without ceasing.”

Don’t take this personally - praying you’re wrong on this. Ditto to your screen name though...

7.62 cal bullet can create devastating and fatal wounds.

He is receiving top notch medical care, but the outcome may still be very bad.

Yes, I agree. I alluded to that down in the post.

Lets hope that isn’t the case.

"...He may be the first death of the Second Civil War..."


Heaven forbid. My fingers are crossed that he is strong and pulls through.
We simply cannot have a country where assassinations occur.
That just makes us like some South American shythole country.
