so someone at the closet 500 feet away from trump in Florida was carrying a gun
is that not the whole state
I'm sure he could find safer things to do ...like theatre trips or sightseeing in an open top carNow I'm wondering if having had an assassination attempt made on an actual golf course, whether or not the secret service will be able to reduce tangoman's golfing trips ?
Apparently they are about the only fresh air exercise it gets, which coupled with the fast food diet cannot be healthy.
I hear dallas is lovely at this time of year ...I'm sure he could find safer things to do ...like theatre trips or sightseeing in an open top car
I think I know what you mean but fun fact. Florida is almost exactly the same size as England plus Wales plus Wales again.
But no open carry. Unless you're on your way to target shoot. Which technically, he was...
this is the America freeeedom x guns for everyone experiment taken to its logical conclusion. and exactly what Trump and co want, right?! I am sure Donald is very happy.
Third Time Lucky - An American StoryOr, is this 4d chess from the political assassination community, whereby the 3rd attempt will be successful, which has 2 benefits:
- The phrase on everyone's lips, all newspapers squirming through the ink to conspicuously avoid the obvious headline "THIRD TIME LUCKY"
- It works in traditional story structure/arcs for Hollywood film:
- First act: Supreme disappointment/setback (but maybe plants a seed of thought/belief/inspiration)
- Second act: After some positivity, another setback. Some characters may lose faith in the mission and wonder if we will ever get our assassination. Was this always just an aspiration we had no right to dream of?
- Final act: It succeeds, and the Good guys win, the Bad Guys lose, and we all live happily ever after
The Trump campaign is blaming Kamala Harris and her Democratic supporters for the second assassination attempt on the former president.
They claim that concerted attempts to demonize Donald Trump as a threat to democracy are putting his life at risk.
Hours after Sunday’s failed shooting plot at Trump’s West Palm Beach golf club, his senior campaign manager Chris LaCivita posted a video of Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT) calling Trump “extraordinarily dangerous” and a “threat to democracy.”
Sanders condemned the incident in Florida, posting on X: “There is no place for political violence, including the disturbing incident we just witnessed in West Palm Beach. We must denounce it in the strongest possible terms, and I am relieved that the former President is safe.”
Harris said on social media that she was glad that Trump was safe, adding: “Violence has no place in America.”
Her running mate, Tim Walz, also posted: “Violence has no place in our country. It’s not who we are as a nation.”
