    And the protectee was allowed to stand up in full view of the crowd afterward. Of course you would assume there would be no gunmen left in the crowd after the initial attempt, but you would also assume no gunmen should have been able to get shots off in the first place.

    The Secret Service has got a lot of explaining to do.

    Pelosi's fault.

    And Joe was mean the night before! He made our MAGA maniac shoot our MAGA king! Or something.

    High school classmates of the shooter describe him to KDKA in Pittsburgh as a "loner" who was often bullied and frequently wore camo clothing to class. Almost a stereotypical description of a mass shooter. Had bomb making materials in his car. too. If somehow he hadn't been able to get close enough to Trump to shoot, he was ready to kill someplace else.

    In their heart of hearts, at places they don't go to at parties, I wonder how many Republican leaders woke up this morning genuinely sorry that the guy missed. My guess is, not too fucking many.

    I still don’t think that’s possible. Bullets from an AR type rifle travel more than 3,000 feet per second. Are conventional cameras capable of that?

    Anyone else notice we haven’t had a statement or press conference by a doctor yet?

    A friend of a friend was on the SS detail. It was her first detail after moving to Pittsburgh after 15 years in DC. Talk about a shitty first day on the job.

    We are culturally primed to invent things at this point.

    If Trump doesn’t show up at the convention with a bandage on his ear, someone in the campaign needs to be fired.
