Trump Supporters Apparently Attacked At Rally With Clandestine Weapon

At least 20 Trump supporters may have been attacked covertly by chemicals or a high-power laser at a Trump rally in Tucson on September 12. Some victims suffered severe burns. Many were temporarily blinded, with symptoms lasting until today. Others may have been affected but have yet to be identified. The fact that all those known to have been affected were sitting on the stage immediately adjacent to President Trump is important in understanding the significance of what happened.

The victims were all part of a “Latinos for Trump” group on the stage. President Trump shook hands with them as he walked to the podium. But what they believed was their good fortune soon turned into a nightmare when severe symptoms began to strike 30 minutes after the rally.

Pastor Eli Moreno opened the rally with a prayer. He and his wife, Francesca Moreno, were among the first victims. After an exciting time of being up close and personal with President Trump, they began to develop symptoms on their drive home. Francesca was hit hardest. Her face began to swell, her vision blurred, and her sinuses started to run uncontrollably. When they stopped at a local drugstore for relief, they found other rally-goers with the same symptoms. Doctors at a local emergency room flushed her eyes and sent her to an ophthalmologist. Five days later, her vision was still significantly blurred.

Another victim, Mayra Rodriguez, also fell ill 30 minutes after the rally. Her symptoms included burning eyes and a severe headache. By the time she was rushed to the emergency room, she couldn’t open her eyes.

Other attendees had similar symptoms, reporting significantly blurred vision, severe eye pain, and facial swelling are common symptoms...

I wonder if Trump had symptoms?

The Jamaican Voo Doo Hoo Doo and her band of Nazis. The Far-left is a bunch of sicko killers. America-hating bass turds.

Yes, the Left will stop at nothing.

They are unhinged.

Is this kind of weapon available to the general public? Of course not. Which agencies would have an interest in developing and using such an oddball thing?

The democrat man on the street is as corrupt as the politicians at the top.

So odd that something would manifest on the drive home. And nobody felt anything when the initial contact of whatever it was took place. What could it be that would cause such a delayed reaction?

I’m sure President Trump was not affected, as we would have known. He’s been non-stop in the public eye ever since. Weird. Could it have been something they encountered when leaving? In their vehicles?

But, tear gas has an immediate effect. These people were in the same group, but all felt the effects when driving home. They would be in scattered locations at that point.

This is still a developing story. Currently, there is no differential diagnosis as to what caused the attack. There is only informed opinion. But in the aftermath of two assassination attempts by rifle, and the Iranian promise to kill Trump, this may become one of the major stories of the campaign. The worst part is that law enforcement does not know precisely who or what caused this, and no one is sure how to prevent its recurrence. This time, President Trump could be the victim.

Most likely it was an infrared laser bought on Amazon.

Tear gas exposure can cause a range of symptoms, including:

Eyes: Excessive tearing, burning, blurred vision, redness, inflammation, and spasmodic blinking
Nose: Runny nose, burning, and swelling
Mouth: Burning, irritation, difficulty swallowing, and drooling
Lungs: Chest tightness, coughing, choking sensation, wheezing, and shortness of breath
Skin: Burns, rash, redness, pain, and blistering
Other: Nausea, vomiting, panic, and agitation

Symptoms usually begin within 20–60 seconds of exposure. Most symptoms resolve within 30 minutes if the person can leave the area and clean off. However, prolonged exposure can lead to long-term eye and breathing problems.

The supporters, of course, weren’t the target.

Biden still refuses to give Trump the same Secret Service protection that he’s getting. Is he in on it? Very likely.

“They hate us and are trying to kill us.”

Yup, you got it.

If you need witnesses, and if the dead could talk, there are millions upon millions who could testify in Soviet Russia, Maoist China and Cambodia. And a few in Vietnam and other lesser commie countries.

It’s a very effective and a very permanent method of getting rid of enemies.

Biden likely doesn’t remember what he had for breakfast this morning.

The threat comes from the people who installed him.
