The Ayatollah threatened to kill President Trump. God help him if this is his work.

True, I would think an Iranian hit team might want to be armed with something other than a shotgun and gas can.

Gee, I wonder why? Maybe calling Trump and his supporters Nazi and worse may ACTUALLY make some nut do something stupid.

“carrying what appeared to be a shotgun and a fuel can.”

Ok, so what was he ACTUALLY carrying? Don’t care that they shot him, because he was trespassing, but it’s curious that they would make this statement.

“Now deport his entire family.”

Maybe. But if someone was to tell you they didn’t know what was going on would you buy into it? That’s called an accessory.

Defined:

Someone who gives assistance to the perpetrator of a crime, without directly committing it, sometimes without being present. Silence is in that category.

Legal Consequences: Under 18 U.S.C. § 3, they may be imprisoned for up to one-half the maximum term of the principal, or up to 15 years if the crime is a capital offense.

Give’em bubba.

The attempted assassin was carrying a fuel can? He was going to burn down Mar-a-Lago? Sounds like a high school kid carrying out a vendetta.

One more loon terminated, a few million to go. And forget Iran or anyone professional. They would have known Trump wasn’t there.

“There were no Secret Service protectees present.....”

Waiting for the commies to say the shooting was not justified....

The identity of the carcass will be release as soon as any collaborators, suppliers, coordinators, and financial supporters are identified.

The Demonicrats are spewing out their trigger phrases to activate all the loony tunes (would be assassins and leftist judges) they have cultivated to oppose President Trump.

Well, during the press conference some bimbette asked if the shotgun was loaded. As if that matters.
