As Americans tried to piece together what happened at the Pennsylvania rally where a 20-year-old attempted to assassinate former President Donald Trump, social media users falsely identified the shooter and sparred over whether the assassination attempt was staged by the right or the left.

Routh’s adventures into ukeland - and consequent relationships - were the equivalent of Oswald’s defection to Russia and Cuban efforts.

Almost cliche’ if you ask me.

Current press conference is answering NOTHING. it’s more like a commercial for the secret service by the acting director, it’s awful.

I think this shooter is a “Kite” someone who unofficially works for one of the 3 lettered agencies who will do their dirty work and if caught gets disavowed...

So, then nothing has changed since July...

...except that they feel compelled to have one (press conference).

Hi.

Second week in October will be the next attempt.

I’m guessing in NC or AZ.

Hope I’m wrong.

Ha! I thought that too. Seemed like he was getting paid by the number of times he mentioned how the SS was providing super protective services......

Probably just one of the obsessed zeepers around the globe, millions of them, any one of them could have been triggered.

.....not involved....

Yeah. and not involved in identifying and capturing him, either.

All the government resources supposedly surrounding Trump and it took a civvie with an iPhone to snap the car and license plate when he took off running.

So, the theory that right-wingers staged an assassination attempt that came within one inch of killing Trump hasn’t been dismissed as lunacy by the MSM? It is treated as equivalent in probability to all of the real-life security failures that have been established?

Some freepers here are completely obsessed with Ukraine, and some even think zelensky is the second coming. If you say anything anti-ukraine on the threads, they will stalk and harass you to no end.
