Two months after memory-holing the first near-successful assassination of an American president in four decades, the Secret Service figures it's safe to start letting the gunmen near Trump again:
Trump rushed to safety as Secret Service opens fire on man with AK-47 near golf course
Ryan Wesley Routh got to within three-to-five hundred yards of Trump. From the corrupt G-men of the FBI:
The FBI has responded to West Palm Beach Florida and is investigating what appears to be an attempted assassination of former President Trump.
The alleged perp is said to have been "known" to the FBI, and, even more bizarrely, was favourably profiled in The New York Times last year for his efforts to organise a grand convergence of the Pentagon's wars without end by recruiting Afghans to fight in Ukraine. Curious.
On the other hand, if you're searching for patterns among the chaos, this seems as good as any:
The grim new reality of our "democracy" is we can tell whether trump won a debate by whether an assassination attempt follows shortly thereafter — Darren J. Beattie 🌐 (@DarrenJBeattie) September 15, 2024
My own line on failed assassinations is that of the IRA taunting Mrs Thatcher after the Brighton bombing: You have to be lucky every time; we only have to be lucky once.
In the last two months, Trump has been lucky twice. There are another two months to go: can he be lucky thrice? Four times?

Does anyone have any thought on HOW we come back from this?
Whether Trump wins or loses, how do we coexist with the left?
Can this nation be saved because as of today I don’t think there is a chance in hell we come back from this.
INDEED.
“Whether Trump wins or loses, how do we coexist with the left?”
How do you coexist with evil? We have been for decades now and look what the result is. Evil is taking over, or trying to, by assassinating Trump... after stealing the last election. You have to know the answer to your own question by now.
Why would you want to pay things off if entering unsettling times?
they want everyone ded.
as for this other business, it’s feeling a bit scripted.
They want Khmer Rouge like “Year Zero”.
It’s some property (not real estate) that I’m freeing
They want to cancel the 2024 election entirely.
“I have a feeling it’s going to be “The Mother Of All October Surprises”.”
We have managed to recover from past “October Surprises”. I have a feeling that we will not be able to recover so easily, if at all, from the next one.
Well o don’t know. This time at least they quite properly opened fire first and asked questions later. I just wish there were better shots
*************
Unless the perp was SUPPOSED to die. Dead men don’t tell tales...
It’s too bad our first thoughts these days are conspiratorial. But it HAS come to this.
[They want to cancel the 2024 election entirely.]
I know someone who is expecting just that
Under the current regime, the greatest threat to democracy is the will of the people.
[...his efforts to organise a grand convergence of the Pentagon’s wars without end by recruiting Afghans to fight in Ukraine. Curious.]
They’re getting desperate, this one hardly has any cut-outs at all.
They might be overplaying the hand a bit if they do that.
This election is not Repubican vs Demoncrat or right vs left. It’s America vs Washington. The crossovers - Cheney, Gabbard, Kennedy, et al - are the realignment in motion.
Personally, I know the answer. However, I have no faith that our side will ever act to take back this country away from the left. Look at all that happened, COVID lockdowns, 2 assasination attempts, 4 years of the left lying and throwing up roadblocks to president trump, the left weaponizing the law, keeping regular citizens in jail without due process over Jan 6…..and still all we do is talk. As of today I think the left could outright seize our guns and the average conservative wouldn’t do anymore than doom type online.
They’ve been overplaying their hand and getting away with it. They have been emboldened beyond belief as the MAGA voters sit on their hands having been thrown in political prisoner gulags.
“and the average conservative wouldn’t do anymore than doom type online.”
Easy for you to blame conservatives -because you don’t identify with them.
Troll.
Sunshine patriots are far more likely to sit on some conservative websites and act The Provocateur. “Look how they reacted. See, we were right to take their guns”
You have a decidedly Eastern European Communist worldview
THEY WANT HIM DEAD
Very true. They public needs to know who “they” is.
The latest attempted assassin was flying all over the world recruiting soldiers or mercenaries. Where does a “construction worker” get such money? Sounds like he was “State sponsored.” If so what state? It should be relatively simple to follow the money......if the NSA, CIA, and FBI want us to know.
Then again the first attempted assassin had encrypted foreign electronic messages. I wonder why the NSA, CIA and FBI have not elaborated on that? They have also been totally silent on his backing and motivation, as well as why the Secret Service failed in such a spectacular manner.
I think we all know the simplest explanations for what has happened. Banana Republics conduct elections by killing opposition candidates.
The American voter needs to know (1) if one or both were State sponsored assassins, (2) which State, assuming it was not a secret portion of the US government, (3) who is overseeing and assuring the protection of President Trump.
The media and most Democratic politicians need to publicly apologize for the violent language and imagery. But most of all we need Trump to win a fair election (without cheating on the part of Democrats) so the various politically weaponized federal departments can be purged of political hacks.
“As of today I think the left could outright seize our guns and the average conservative wouldn’t do anymore than doom type online.”
Sadly, I have to agree. Going by what assaults upon our freedom that have already occurred by the radical left Democrats, our enemy within .... that our side has consistently allowed, I have to conclude that we have become a nation half full of wusses (the other half complete sheep-minded morons).
Our forefathers, roiling in their graves, must really be ashamed of what we have become and are possibly even regretting having even bothered to give up their lives for our freedom.
To be so casually tossed aside without lifting a finger is a damning indication that we have, indeed, been “fundamentally transformed”. A corrupt society that is eating itself from inside out. A nation such as that can not stand or survive.... and probably doesn’t deserve to.
That said, call me crazy.... but I still have a small glimmer of hope hanging in there. A tiny, almost inaudible voice that says we still have a chance. If, God willing, Trump gets back in the WH, we may still be able to at least stave off the assault upon our very lives... for a little while longer. But these demons will only be completely defeated and destroyed when Jesus returns. And that will be the literal “end” of our worries re: these matters.
