If you secretly admire Trump, now’s the time to admit it. Shock your coworkers. Scandalise the wife. Today a grace period descends over politics in which even people who’ve labelled him Hitler and called for him to be removed must grit their teeth and say, “I-guess-he’s-kind-of-admirable.”
Try awesome. Like Moby Dick or the Terminator, Trump is a force of nature. Think of all this man has gone through in eight years. He’s been been impeached (twice), accused of rape, arrested, condemned in court, labelled a traitor, survived Covid and now shot in the ear. Who can doubt he will win in November?!
In the United States, every assassination attempt is a tragedy but every near-miss is a triumph – because Americans are schooled in what could’ve been. Lincoln. Kennedy. King. This time, the target got back up. Trump punched the air, he yelled “Fight!”, and the crowd chanted “USA! USA!” American patriotism is not defined by easy success but victory over adversity, the survival of the pioneer wagon against almighty odds. Remember: Rocky lost in the first movie, he didn’t win till the second. And in the fourth he single-handedly brought down the Soviet Union.....
This time, the plan failed. The man in the arena fights on. The photographs are astonishing: the bullet zipping through the air; Trump on the floor, as if in prayer; then elevated by security, crowned by the Stars and Stripes fluttering over their heads. The latter image looks, in composition, similar to the famous shot of soldiers raising the flag at Iwo Jima in 1945. America revives, Trump survives. And lashed to the great whale are his opponents, drowned by the very beast they have tried to harpoon.

And not just this government...
No wonder the UK’s Deep State is freaking out, eh?
While she's asleep, write "TRUMP!" on her forehead in block letters with indelible ink.
Then leave town.
I jest, I jest!
A LEO climbed the ladder and saw the assassin with a rifle.
Instead of taking him out, he backed down the ladder...?
***One local police officer climbed to the roof and encountered Crooks, who pointed his rifle at the officer. The officer retreated down the ladder, and Crooks quickly took a shot toward Trump,***
He should have taken him out.
Ppl were also trying to get attention of LEOs and SS for them to look towards killer on nearby roof.
These ppl were ignored
LEOs saw the man pointing to the killer but did not take action.
Why???
Where is all the social media data from the shooter?
XD XD... nice
As in “the assassinations will continue until the Rats have full control” ? Like France?
The nattering nabobs here, the Eeyores, the Freeptards? This is the moment to show them the trap door.
There will be another attempt. Expect the narrative to be “Well, TRUMP STARTED IT!” by tonight in the MSM.
Expect to hear it Monday at work. From your team blue family.
Push back. Don’t be nice. That is over. Be good. Be honest. Be blunt.
Wondering if he’ll still be denied SS protection, or sort-of protection.
The Democrats have a lot more arrows in their quiver.
It’s best not to get cocky.
+1
Surreal? Same for me. Yet, I couldn’t help but think all last evening into today of how not surprised I am that this happened; only surprised that it hasn’t happened sooner.
“It’s not the far right, it’s the republican establishment, Never Trumpers, and RINOs.”
I agree.
The author (Tim Stanley) lost all credibility when he said that “the far-right” hates Trump. Of course, he didn’t give any examples. They never do.
totally agree
Brennan, Comey, McCabe, Strock and lover, Ruebenstein (whatever the hell his name was), et al. (PUKES! Each every one!)
Yep
The photo of the dead shooter with blood running all over his face should be published everywhere, UNCOVERED, so would be assassins can see how it looks to go out in “a blaze of glory!” Click “SHOW” to see his bloody remains.

You may or may not believe in a CREATOR GOD who has personal interests in this whole mess, But what happened yesterday was the HAND OF GOD HIMSELF!!!.... no question about it.
If You don't believe, I suggest you do some reading of God's Word, the Bible... and see what He did in the Old and NEW Testament!!!!
Our pastor read that quote recently....amazing some of our great history that our children don’t even know any more!!
