As I wrote elsewhere, there is a popular theoretical question - "would you have killed Hitler in the 1930s if you knew what was to come?" Many people answer "yes."
True, we haven't perfected time travel. But then 2020 came along.
I believe many on the left feel the same way about Trump - AND have a hyper (and delusional) elevated sense of their self. Lacking a time machine, the 2020-equivalent question was "would you steal the election by whatever means, to remove Trump from office? Because, ya know, he's Hitler."
We are seeing their "yes" right now with the assassination attempt. Indeed, we have seen it for years. 2020 was a de facto going back in time to kill Hitler. They high-fived each other and BELIEVED they were The Resistance incarnate.
This new dogma - "anything goes if we are morally justified" is an extension of this article:
.... What (liberals) really want is liberal Sharia law, a secular theocracy. The minimum wage, gender equality, nationalized health care, and global warming—whatever their practical virtues—are not just expedient policy prescriptions. They are essential aspects of the liberal fatwa. Feminism, deconstruction, and gender theory are not just academic abstractions up for discussion among liberal academics: They are articles of their religious creed. Question them and you are not just wrong—you are a heretic.
...for them, politics is the means to secular salvation...political failure is not just a setback on the road to a more stable society—it is a blow to their very worldview. Opposition to their program is not just wrong-headed, but evil.
Yes, they are barking mad, but functionally so. They have jobs, live in cities, and associate with like-minded Lost Souls. There is power in numbers. For the most part, since they’re not committing a crime they’re free to wander around.
If Trump retired after 2020 it’d sort of end there. Exceeeeeeept, Trump didn’t slink away. He’s as alive as ever. Relatedly, many people who didn’t take the Covid shots (or did so under duress and spoke out against it), highlighted the Big Media collusion with the Admin, reject the pro-Hamas bromides from the Ivy League protesters, point to porous borders as a problem, reject schools telling Johnny it’s ok to wear lipstick but not white after Labor Day, and work for a living, are guilty by extension to these Lost Souls.
NOW, with Biden now being rejected by the gaslighting/enabling Superiors of the Lost Souls, and Trump almost getting killed, what are these self-glorified Nazi-Resistance wannabes (as if….a late father of a family friend fought actual Nazis in Poland; these leftists can’t shine their shoes) gonna do?
Check out what happens to followers of the charlatans who say “Jesus is coming back this day” and nothing happens…they double-down rather than accept that they’ve allowed themselves to be a puppet.
The Lost Souls are gonna kick The Crazy up a few notches. They’ll go back into their Time Machine and ignore, cancel, lie, etc and have a 2-Minute Virtue-signaling Hate on Social Media about Trump and his supporters…so they can feel good talking about themselves in between lines of coke.
Clarence Thomas got it right, when he wrote about the protests (threats?) from the Roe leak: "We are becoming addicted to wanting particular outcomes, not living with the outcomes we don't like."
I was with my cousin during the attempt on Trump’s life. He said “I think he did it to himself.” You just can’t reason with people like that.
How are we to EVER find middle ground with these lunatics?
We almost certainly are stumbling toward an all-out civil war.
They will not accept a presidential election outcome reversing the course against these communist traitors.

Indeed many refuse to give up Marxism because the utopia story warms their heart.
So do these people think Trump stood there and let the shooter shoot him, trusting that it would only pierce his ear? Or did he have a catsup packet hidden in his ear?
Those Secret Service people who piled on top of Trump, were they in on it? The doctor who treated Trump right afterwards, was he in on it? Ronny Jackson must be in on it, too, since he has made a statement about the injury and is still treating Trump.
That’s an awful lot of people who might squeal and reveal a big scandal that would totally ruin Trump. But I guess when you hate Trump that badly, and the incident has only made Trump more popular, you’ll believe whatever you want.
I have an associate at work who says he will vote for Trump, Dosen’t like Biden...but also thinks “trump paid the kid to shoot him”. Giant eye roll from me.
Because a real assassination attempt would invalidate their “reality”.
“Mark” will be at that bar, crying in his beer on election Night.
My theory is that since a faked assassination attempt is something the left would do, no matter how many people were killed in the process, they have no problem believing that their political opponent would do the same.
