MILWAUKEE — In the hours after a would-be assassin fired a bullet through former President Donald Trump’s ear, Panfilo DiCenzo, a 40-year-old Democratic voter from Pittsburgh, drew a simple conclusion about the political effect of the attack: “It definitely is good for Trump.”
At a time when President Joe Biden has been struggling to shore up support with fellow Democrats following a miserable June debate performance and shaky cleanup effort, some professional Democratic political operatives said Saturday’s shooting will end up sealing the incumbent’s electoral fate.
“We’re so beyond f---ed,” one longtime Democratic insider said, noting that the image of Trump thrusting his fist in the air, with blood dramatically smeared across his face, will be indelible.
“The presidential contest ended last night,” said a veteran Democratic consultant.
“Now it’s time to focus on keeping the Senate and trying to pick up the House,” he said. “The only positive thing to come out of last night for Democrats is we are no longer talking about Joe Biden’s age today.”
One Democratic strategist who has worked on multiple presidential campaigns and on Capitol Hill said that the physical targeting of Trump robs Biden of his main argument against the former president. Biden, the strategist pointed out, has tried to convince voters that Trump is so extreme that he presents a threat to democracy.
“That message is dead,” the strategist said.

Brandon stepping down tonight to take the focus away from PDJT’s escape from assassination attempt?
Biden’s going nowhere. Jill will not here of it.
I dont think so. Dems have had to give up on that with this incident. I think they are going to focus on House and Senate. They are stuck with Biden as candidate unless he has a stroke or some such thing.
I can’t opine on it as I really don’t know anything about it other than it is connected to jewish people and celebs sometimes get on the bandwagon. I remember Madonna used to wear one.
Dr Evil the home wrecking power and money adulteress is going nowhere .
Hunter needs a pardon so Bidenista are going no where until they get his pardon and serious cash from VJ and Soros .
Now now, Thermopylae is a bit of an exaggeration. It was at Antietam..
Fret?
After yesterday they will all be absolutely destroyed in November.
By publicly making it all political instead of condemning violence and at least putting on an act of concern for Trump and sympathy for the victims, they are putting themselves in an even worse position politically.
I know many will be shocked—but don’t be surprised if Biden drops out of the race very soon.
He now knows the Secret Service cannot protect anyone—including him—from the Deep State.
That would be something.
They’re the ones who caused this.
Fuck democrats and their death cult
The irony from a candidate perspective is this assassination attempt monopolizing the news and replacing the Biden’s age and dementia news bolsters Biden’s candidacy within his party. Their attempts at replacing him will now have to go into a pause perhaps long enough to get his nomination locked in mid August when it will be too late to replace him if he does not want to step down.
history repeats...... “the shot heard around the world” and “we woke a sleeping giant” come to mind
There is no way they can relinquish power. They used Germ Warfare in alliance with China, the biggest enemy in the World , to steal elections. That’s Treason punishable by death. They are risking their necks if justice can procede
