President Biden: The NEW one and only politics thread

Somebody who I assume is real happy right now is Musk. This continues to show how much X still dominates for live news.

 

Anyone who shoots on here/our ex military people: can we safely assume this guy was a competent marksman to be so close? I haven't heard how far away that building was, but he was a good bit back it seems, correct?

 

This is a security fuckup of cosmic proportions. I thought cops LIKED Trump.

The NYT has a map in their live feed showing where the gunman's body was supposedly found.

If accurate, it's going to raise a substantial amount of questions about the quality of security sweeps.

So I've heard from both sides now that Biden coordinated the assassination attempt and also that Trump himself coordinated his own assassination attempt for the sympathy.

And we wonder why so many clamor for a third-party choice?

I’ve seen people measuring it on Google Maps putting it at 410 yards from the stage. Most people don’t practice at that range, especially with their hearts pumping at 180 BPM as his likely was.

That said, how the Secret Service allowed that rooftop in the line of sight to be unsecured is a huge failure. If anything, they should have had one of their guys first.
