‘It’s All Over’: Stephen A. Smith Says Shooter ‘Handed Donald Trump The Election’
Daily Caller ^ | 16 July 2024 | JASON COHEN

Posted on 07/16/2024 7:19:48 AM PDT by Sam77

ESPN’s Stephen A. Smith said on Monday that the man who attempted to assassinate former President Donald Trump guaranteed his victory in the upcoming election.

Trump survived the attempt on his life by now-deceased 20-year-old Thomas Matthew Crooks at his Saturday rally in Pennsylvania, with the former president pumping his fist as he departed with blood on his face after a bullet grazed his head. Smith on “The Stephen A. Smith Show” said his opinion is that this incident ensured Trump would win and that his legal cases would be terminated.

That needs to be Trump’s campaign theme…..no conspiracy theories about the SS setting him up. Let the House GOP and others do that.

Trump needs to focus on the failure of the Biden admin on securing the border, effective security, economic stewardship, etc.

These are all gov’t failures and the last one (the attempted assassination) is due to Biden appointing incompetent leaders who are incapable of fulfilling their fundamental duties.

The people feel this about Biden. They feel nothing is working right. Trump needs to tap into that.

correct. had they actually protected Trump this would have been gone from the news by the time the sunday night movie played. “would be shooter at a trump rally arrested. target of shooter unknown”

because they would NOT have reported the truth.

This needs to be exposed by the people’s press. Did the SS hold the ladder for the Oswald?

It ain't over till it's over.

They have four more months to plan and scheme and cheat.

Do not take anything for granted.

Always Divine signage every which way all of the time.

People really need to know whose been in charge since forever.

The title not only indicates yet another “it all turned to the contrary” [for Haman & Sons], but the name of perp said to have ‘Handed Donald Trump The Election’ was:

Thomas Matthew Crooks

Thomas: one who doubts
Matthew: a gift of God
Crooks: self-explanatory in its “scored own goal” work accident kind of way

Now, as for the 50 YO family man Corey Comperatore who was killed instead of the intended target, President Trump, his sacrifice will make sense in the bigger picture for all eternity.

https://www.cnn.com/2024/07/14/politics/corey-comperatore-trump-shooting-victim/index.html

Comperatore...derived from the word “compera” which means “purchase” or “buying” in Italian. The name likely originated as an occupational surname for someone who worked as a buyer or purchasing agent.

https://en.nomorigine.com/origin-of-surname/comperatore/

Lots of directions for the origin/meaning of his given name.

May God comfort his family and give them peace and understanding.

Corey Comperatore’s last words, “Get down!”.

🙏

I don’t think it is mere incompetence. I think it was an intentional act to look incompetent so they could go through with the assassination of a former President and current Presidential candidate.

Many people are involved, I am sure way high up the ladder and they know if DJT gets in office, they will be hunted down like the animals they are - I won’t be surprised if there are more attempts.

The SS, DOJ and IRS are all compromised to be used against half of America and all need to be dismembered - new govt agencise need to be formed from the ground up.

Here is the thing: the traitors in the dem party kept President Trump from accomplishing so much by keeping him tied up in court.

Everyone who had a hand in it has an entire cemetery of skeletons in their multiple closets and they need to be exposed so we don’t get a repeat.

I really grieve for the brave, true-man Mr. Comperatore. I get tears in my eyes every time I think about him, his family, their now-empty home, and destroyed lives.

To: Tell It Right

Howie Carr, columnist for the Boston Herald (Conservative tabloid), said that the other reporters used to call the sport columns the “toy department”. Still, it seems to me that injecting politics into sports is a losing business proposition. Sports is supposed to be a refuge from politics. When the St. George de Floyd/BLM hysteria was raging I essentially boycotted major league sports for two years. I am only just now slowly getting back in.

I guess it is no longer a “secret” that the “secret” service is at best incompetent. At worst they are complicit.

The young, killer Marxist Dem POTUS wannabes are going to let Biden go down this election now. The claim is they don’t want to be tainted by the rhetoric assoc with the shooting. In reality, THEY KNOW they can’t win now even with a cheat margin on over 10%. So they’ll wait to see another day to make and see the world burn.

You’re right. I give it 50-50 that we have an election. That is not fear porn, that’s the reality of the situation.
