Now 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.

Thread title should probably be changed to Assassination Attempts on Trump Q3 2024, or This Year's Failed Attempts to Kill Trump

the ways things are going we might need a new sub forum.

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...

Oh well, third time lucky.

I'm sure he could find safer things to do ...like theatre trips or sightseeing in an open top car

TBF, if I were her, I'd have smothered him with a pillow a long time ago.

Someone needs to tell the newbie time travelers that you don't go back and kill Hitler (... or Trump). It just makes more work for the Time Cops who have to maintain the timeline and avert a paradox.

Or, 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

On April 21, Routh directed an X message to Elon Musk, in which he wrote: "I would like to buy a rocket from you. I wish to load it with a warhead for Putins Black sea mansion bunker to end him. Can you give me a price please."

Absolutely - all he needs is a load more of his supporters lurking in the bushes with assault rifles wherever he goes in order to fight off anyone who might take a shot at him. Think how secure he'll be then.

Third Time Lucky - An American Story

A high profile election. An impossible task. A man who never gave up. Third Time Lucky is a heartwarming tale with the moral of the story being if you believe in your mission enough you'll achieve your dreams.

After two failed attempts at a powerful target, things in the political assassination community had rarely seemed so hopeless. But one man had a dream - to pull off the greatest feat in the history of politics...

Tbf the IRA statement on the failed attempt at assassination of Margaret Thatcher regularly gets shared around Facebook as an inspirational quote lol.

We could mine the golf course.

Apparently, in the maga world, the recent attempt on Trump's was due to statements from the left.

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.”

However, the article goes on

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.”

Rather than killing Hitler, I would try to prevent the killing of Rosa Luxemburg and Karl Liebknecht, with a view to helping a successful revolution take place.

Violence is what most if not all nation states are, and the US in spades.
