1 in 3 Democrats believe Trump faked assassination attempt. I talked to one
Fox News ^ | July 20, 2024 | David Marcus

Posted on 07/21/2024 3:55:37 AM PDT by where's_the_Outrage?

If some polls are to be believed, one in three Democrats think that Donald Trump faked his own assassination attempt. When I read that, I thought, could this possibly be true? But this weekend on my drive home to West Virginia from the Republican National Convention in Milwaukee, I got the theory first hand. And it's a fascinating doozy.

Station Square Ristorante, just off of I-80 in Liberty, Ohio, is an absolute gem. Ottavio and Bridget Musumeci have somehow managed to create a legitimate fine-dining experience attached to the Super 8 motel. And no, I’m not kidding. In the wood-paneled bar, as I ordered oysters and antipasto for a late lunch, I met Mark, originally from northern New Jersey, which his accent revealed before he did. And Mark, well, he had some very interesting things to say.

As is my way, I turned the conversation to politics and the assassination came up.

"That whole thing was a setup," Mark told me.

Before I could even respond, John, the bartender, who I would learn doesn’t like Trump or Biden, said, "Nah, two people are dead. No way."

Mark’s response was, "this is Donald Trump, he’s capable of anything."

Yeah he’s great, what a lost opportunity that he lost his recent election.

I was in our local dog park and a person I was speaking to said they wished the shooter hadn’t missed.

But this isn’t all.

The person kept calling Trump a rapist who likes to grab women by the..... I asked why they hadn’t commented on Biden showering with his adolescent daughter as child sexual abuse is just if not more sickening. They literally told me that this was the first time they had heard of it. So I told them about Ashley Biden’s diary, her statement that it was her diary, that she wasn’t making the story up and how the instances may have negatively impacted her. The person never seemed to accept what I was relaying and later in our conversation wound up accusing me of listening to Fox News.

I honestly believe there is a segment of the population who only care about their side winning because it sustains the status quo. Truth or facts don’t matter. Their entire world view is set and anything that legitimately questions their world view brings on intense paranoia.

And to a large extent this is what I believe we are witnessing. Not all people but a percentage. Many are able to open their eyes and think for themselves.

It was really cool how one of the fake bullets cut the hydraulic line on that piece of construction equipment so it sprayed hydraulic fluid everywhere. Most fake assassinations don’t have that level of detail.

A large portion of the people in this country has been fed lies by the media for quite a while now. Accordingly, they are unplugged from reality (i.e., bat-guano crazy).

Those of us who have not been subjected to and/or have not fallen prey to this indoctrination of the Left need to realize that those who are insane cannot be expected to behave in a sane manner. This is unfortunate because many of those insane folks are our family members.

But it is what it is and we must face this reality.

Let’s be honest, a full 1/6 of our population is illiterate. Although many of them can read at a sixth grade level doesn’t mean they can comprehend much of it. No surprise our country isn’t listed in the top 20 in many ranking charts.

There are lots of stupid people, who repeat whatever they hear. The smart people are objective, using common sense finding the truth.

Understanding is missing. Repeating propaganda is being a parrot, sometimes without much understanding.

To those say Trump faked it:
Go to a gun range. There are 200 yard ranges everywhere. Looked at the bullet holes close to the setup areas. Watch the other shooters. Look at their groupings on the targets. Then imagine going down range where they are going to open fire, and the plan is that an 20 yo with an AR is just going to nick your ear/scalp. Once they can see that in the minds eye, if they still believe it’s faked………well that why liberalism is a mental disorder.

“Just ask them if Trump wins will they be election deniers?”

They have always been ‘election deniers’ if or when their side has lost. It’s a constant in the universe. That, and their penchant for projecting and for lying when their lips move.

"Donald Trump doesn’t care if his supporters die," Mark shot back, quite certain of himself.

Mark, logic is obviously not your strong suit. Mark, if you truly believe that, run and hide because Donald could come for you! If Trump doesn’t care about his supporters, how does he feel about those against him?

Another example of what brainwashing can accomplish:

Ha! At first, I thought you must have been talking to my crazed, liberal niece who says the same things and hates Trump. But she hates dogs, so she wouldn’t have been at a dog park, except maybe to shoot them, but she hates guns.

The video is worth watching and recommending to those who think the assassination faked.

For anyone bemoaning that the assassination failed try this: “OK, so that means that the gloves are off now? Leftists are fair targets then?”.

Golden rule applies.

With a retort: “OK, who would top the leftist list? Alternatively, start local and work way up? What do you think would be fair?”.

“...this is Donald Trump, he’s capable of anything...”

In 2025, you are going to see, up close and personal, what Donald Trump is capable of. The trash is going to be taken out. Justice is finally coming for those cretins in the deep state, FBI, DHS, DOD and propaganda media. /spit

We now know there were 9 bullets fired. 3 from Crooks, 1 from the Counter sniper, and the others from 2 other caliber weapons. The last, 12 seconds after the firing began could not have come from Crooks, but is tied to a woman screaming. It was not a rifle shot.
