Reset The “Days Since Last Trump Assassination Attempt” Sign Back To Zero

Reset the sign:

Another Trump assassination attempt, but this time we can switch the spinner from “Deranged Democrat” to “Complete Nutcase.”

White House Gunman Identified, Was Known to Secret Service

A court issued an order barring him from the area. He violated it and kept coming back. The Secret Service kept finding him loitering around the White House.

Chronicle of a death foretold.

Nasire Best, 21, of Maryland, had been showing up at the White House for nearly a year before Saturday evening, when he pulled out a revolver and opened fire at a security checkpoint. Secret Service officers shot and killed him at the scene. At least one bystander was seriously wounded.

Attempting to shoot your way into the White House with a revolver is pretty crazy on its own.

The agents who confronted him had seen him before. Court records show he was involuntarily committed in June 2025 after obstructing traffic near 15th Street and E Street NW, just blocks from where he would be killed eleven months later. The following month, he was arrested for unlawful entry after bypassing a restricted pedestrian control post at the White House perimeter. When agents detained him, he told them he was Jesus Christ and that he wanted to be arrested.

Why yes, if there’s one trait we can all agree Jesus displayed it was his love of shooting at people.

I’ve now created a “Lunatics who thought they were Jesus Christ” tag, and I’m going to have to go back and apply to it retroactively that post about Todd Kincannon.

A court issued an order barring him from the area. He violated it and kept coming back. The Secret Service kept finding him loitering around White House entry posts in the months that followed. No political motive has been established. Best wasn’t a political operative with a manifesto; he was a deeply disturbed young man who kept returning, compulsively, to the same patch of federal ground until the day he arrived armed.

The shooting lasted seconds. Best fired a few rounds before officers cut him down. Members of the press corps on the White House grounds dove for cover as the shots rang out.

Unlike the White House Press Dinner assassination attempt, all the the Secret Service members on site acted quickly and decisively to neutralize the threat. But that’s the second Trump assassination attempt this month, and the third in the last 30 days.

The left is stirring up their lunatic base.

All the way to this November's voting booth, ballot manufacturing warehouses, U-Hauls carrying boxes of ballots, and overseas software systems generating bogus DEM votes.

Not just a “Complete Nutcase.” He was a Useful Idiot, doing what he was inspired and directed to do by the far left.

switch the spinner from "Deranged Democrat" to "Complete Nutcase.".
First still applies, but those are synonyms.

Just a Democrat. No need to add “deranged” - it is understood.

Counting plots discovered and stopped, that was the EIGHTH assassination attempt on President Trump.

As we say here on FR: "He's over all the right targets".

May he continue to do so for the rest of his term.

You have separate categories for Democrat and nutcase?

A bit extravagant there, aren’t you?

This is what a surveillance state gets you: not advanced warning, but "Oh yeah! That nut-job was in our database!" I guess we can all rest easy knowing that (sarcasm).

To paraphrase Captain Kirk, What does God need with a revolver?
