Thank you very much and God bless you.
He could resign, drop out and endorse Harris, but that might be especially awkward today, probably between now and the Democrat convention, else he'll lead the party to a landslide defeat in November. Any way you look at it, his legacy is dismal.
The Left will complain about all the free air time he got yesterday.
Resigning would make him look connected to the assassination attempt. Biden will never take responsibility for anything.
Speech and statements pre-written.
It’s as if they anticipated this event.
Hmmmm.
May God protect our troops? This entire event has zip nothing to do with our troops...wow..
“Good morning. My fellow Americansh, I think what happened in Butlass Transylvania on Tuesday, um, yeshterday was a…a….bad thing. I mean it was a travesty. The fact is, it’s a travesty of a mockery of a sham of a mockery of a travesty of two mockeries of a sham. Vice President Trump spoke to me after this lecture, and said he’s feeling fine. And I pray that he’s fine too. I hope my hair is fine. But I don’t want Hunter to be fined, the way Beau was after he saved the Archduck Ferdinand from syphilis in World War I.
“See, the fact is, we can’t have…what’s that word on my teleporter? Threat of Rick? Ok. Yes, we can’t have raging Threat of Rick in thish faltering, I mean Great nayshun. But the fact is, The Vice President may have an ear wound but he wasn’t killed? I mean, cmon man….be a man. But listen, I think Trump would be a dictator but we need to stop this very effective hate stuff publicly until after the Democrat orgy at the Chicago concert. Then we can go back to calling them Nazis, erm, Nancys.
“I want us to come together. As a nation. Come together. Right now. Over my knee. He say, ‘One and one and one is three’. The Who, man, that was a great song of theirs. Page and Plant. What a trio. But the fact is, we need to stop this arguing and bickering. Cmon man…everyone knows The Kinks rule.
“In closhing, I wanna um…cry…um..thank…uh…beg…oh, ask everyone to say a prayer tonight for Vice President Trump, First Lady Nancy Pelosi’s husband, and for my memory. Together, we can overcome division, and multiplication, and integral calculus. In closing…oh wait, I said that…is Ukrainian President Putin here? Oh, ok…never mind. Jill, can you come out here and help me off this soundstage? Thank you., bless me, and God Bless Sly and the Family Biden. Vote Quimby!
“Good night San Diego. Go f*** yourself.”
Dear Joe: Go F yourself, you senile bastard.
We are thankful, that Vice President Trump, is well.
They going to start providing security for RFK, Jr.??? If something happens to him, God Forbid, it WILL BE ON THEM!
And in closing...FJB!
Supposedly this Chatham character has been assigning all the trainees to Trump’s team. From watching the videos I believe it.
Biden trying to remain relevant and presidential. Trump has taken all of the oxygen out of the room. Dems have to retool their campaign. They can’t call Trump a threat to democracy and compare him to Hitler, centerpieces of their campaign.
Not that I'm suggesting that Biden's response was recorded beforehand. But then, not that I'm not suggesting that, either.
Biden found something that may keep him relevant and the attack dogs in own party and in the media off his carcass for a week.
I’m fine with that.
If Joey is still on the ballot in November, that’s a sure win for Trump.
Susan Crabtree on Secret Service policy. Some of this could be based on candidate fear of political blowback, if an innocent gets killed.
The blowback against the Secret Service started within the hour of the assassination attempt and continued even after Trump and other credited the agency with saving Trump’s life by quickly killing a shooter crawling across a nearby rooftop.
But a source within the Secret Service community tells RealClearPolitics that the agency rules of engagement in this situation are to wait until the president is fired upon to return fire.
“You want to take a shot then find out the guy was holding a telescope?” the source suggested. “The Secret Service is by nature reactive…and you better be right when you do react or you’re f-——d.”
The Secret Service protocol requires that a counter sniper aware of a potential shooter to radio directly to intelligence division team to respond and investigate. In this case, the investigation may have been cut short by the shooter firing his weapon, so the counter sniper then fired as quickly as possible in return.
The source praised the counter sniper who acquired the target and responded within three seconds, calling their performance “incredible.”
“The counter snipers are highly trained and extremely accurate,” he said.]
IF this attempt was carried out with Biden’s full knowledge (as full as he’s capable of) it would have been a double boost for his candidacy, had it succeeded. First his opponent would be dead or severely injured enough to make him unable to continue his candidacy AND, he would have been able to “show the public how presidential his is” by playing the concerned routine that he’s doing now. But since Trump didn’t cooperate and go away quietly, Biden only gets to do the second part.
I figured that was the case and the applicable ROE. But the guy is in a restricted/secured area, lying prone, aiming a rifle at the President and the officer is tracking him with a high power scope. Those four strikes justified blowing him to bits BEFORE he fired. Is there no common sense anywhere?
“Could it be that he plans to bow out of the Presidential race?“
Naaaah he just wants as much time in front of the nation acting presidential.

The head of the Secret Service will never accept responsibility. She is a protected class member. Female, woke and obama asset. She will probably double down on a feeble attempt to protect President Trump. Mr. Trump should hire former SF types to protect him because the SS is now shown themselves to be political and will not protect him.
The SS loyalties have been turned to the dimrat party.
Obama’s legacy.
Some other site had a poster saying the he was asking for authorization to shoot for 45 seconds.
Fog of war.. who know what is the truth
