There must be a few lefties that... have a soul?


Voting for someone who wants the exact opposite things just because someone took a shot at them has nothing to do with soul. If it had been Biden instead of Trump would your vote have flipped or would you be here talking about "Biden's violent rhetirc caused this he brought it on himself"?

All I hear all day long, That a b c. , C n n, M s n b c, All they are sensationalists., They are not partisan.. And yet they maintain The assassination Attempt wasn't an assassination attempt, The obvious answer here is the sensationalist argument dies immediately if they don't push the narrative of an assassination attempt..

You're missing the meat of the matter.
This was a attempt on an USA President.

Right this second every person who ever had contact with the shooter is having their online and background gone through with a comb.

That pretty much confirms Trump wins, right?

Pretty much, yes. The entire premise of the Biden campaign and its messaging has been that Trump is a mortal threat to American democracy, that a second Trump term would be the starting point of some sort of christo-fascist takeover of the country.

Juxtapose this against the attempts by Democratic state governments to kick Trump off the ballot.
Against the attempts by Democratic state judiciaries to get Trump convincted of felonies on bogus charges.
And now juxtapose it against a literal assassination attempt on him.


It should be obvious that their strategy is now lying in shambles. What will the messaging be from here on out?
"Our side tried to take out Trump, first legally, then kinetically (when the lawfare didn't work) - but we're not the fascists, he is! Despite the heinous attack on his life, he's still the bad guy (and kinda brought this upon himself...)"


So what are they gonna do now? Run on Biden's track record? Lmao!
Their last proverbial bullet ("this election is about the future of American democracy") just got neutralized by this event. Maybe an outstanding candidate like Obama could still turn things around for Democrats by thoroughly outcampaigning Trump, but the greatly diminished and declining Biden clearly doesn't have that in him anymore.


So yes, this should seal the deal in Trump's favor.

I like to think, There are some people who are middle of the road, Who are asking themselves Which side is more violent, Which side is more radical, Most americans align left or right. But there's a very large sliver that identify in the direct middle, This will necessarily push them over the edge of indecision into decisive action..

Possibly. WHO the shooter was will have some sort of impact. It could have been a disgruntled vet with PTSD for all we know.

Well let's add things up, shall we?
The RIGHT didn't spend eight years trying to put Trump in jail.
The RIGHT didn't shoot at Trump.
The RIGHT didn't burn down cities.
Like I said... Vous avez certainement cela à l'envers.

Nah: I am talking about violences and polarization happening around since several years...

Don't you think americans (and their allies) are tired of this humiliating situation ?

Thanks for proving my point by immediately jumping on "the left" or "the right" tho. Btw republicans (the adult ones, in charge) are already understanding it's not good.

"Our normal democratic process" vs "Catastrophic"

Have a nice evening.

Considering the video Trump put out yesterday promising to end HRT even for adults it wouldn't surprise me.
