President Biden: The NEW one and only politics thread

Honestly, he knows his campaign has gone downhill since the last gun thing. Would not be surprised at all if this was a Trumper sacrificing himself, for the cause. Hoping to give the campaign a bump. Is an AR-15 or AK-47 really a good weapon for a sniper? For shooting at a distance? Glad Trump is safe obviously, but you really have to wonder.

Trump Safe as F.B.I. Investigates Apparent ‘Attempted Assassination’
Former President Trump was on his golf course when, a few hundred feet away, the Secret Service opened fire on a suspect, law enforcement officials said. The suspect was later taken into custody, and a rifle was recovered, officials said.

 

Bold move, but like everything else, this will lose to the NFL in the ratings.

 

When the Chiefs are playing?

I'm having a harder and harder time to NOT subscribe to conspiracy theories. However, if this was going to be a DEMS second attempt, they would have hired a supreme marksman, who waited for a great, not good shot. Seals, or Rangers and still botched it? Not some random with a love of guns and a death wish "for the cause". And if the GOP would have hired two guys to fake shots, well, what better place than echoing gunshots at a wooded golf course? Implied immunity for acting like it just being a personal grudge, and hero worship? I'm spent, but here for either . This shit is NOT happening in a vacuum.

 

You’ll never guess the political leanings of this potential assassin
