I don't think he's exactly a lock, but this is definitely going to be a positive for his campaign.

Her trainers suck.


@BGP he is now infamous and more efamous and he’s now another meme, he has warlord status , etc


Biden has no chance.

Trump can say he took a bullet for his country

Yeah I agree. Seems like a big overreaction to how much this will help.

People keep saying this and I have no idea where the "at" is coming from. And as Trolly pointed out, these dipshits have been engaging in political violence since Charlottesville. You can fight fire with fire or with water, but fighting it with kind words probably isn't going to cut it. Chop off the head of the snake and there is a chance of going back to normalcy.

If it were literally any other politician, on the left or on the right, there would be no such rhetoric, at least not here.

YMMV, but the X platform has in-large turned in favor of Trump. Many of the largest accounts (Musk and Bill Ackman for starters) have come out in support of trump. The comment section is filled with huge swaths of Trump supporters as well.

The all-male details weren't exactly perfect over the years either.

Whatever I don't care just wanna call him out for posting in 3 threads at once that he was a registered republican 3 years ago like it was some sort of gotcha. The guys 20

Pretty sure if he had been a registered democrat you'd think this was political.

Edit: you ninja edited your post, you originally said "he's 20, it's not political". As for "whatever, I don't care", you certainly seem to be making the same point in multiple threads an awful lot for someone who doesn't care.

Who knows, maybe it's political, maybe it isn't. Trump and the right are certainly going to use it for political advantage, so it's relevant to point out if it was the right wingers eating their own. Then you've got posters like bahbahmickey in the other threads complaining about political violence from the left. So, if he is a right winger, that needs to be highlighted to set the record straight for sure.

But that still doesn't making him a Democrat. And from what I read, it wasn't a donation to the Democrats, but to some liberal PAC.

Edit - the alleged donation seems to have been debunked as well.

I was not the first one to talk about the political affiliation of the shooter. In one thread people were assuming it was done by a Democrat, and in another a specific Antifa member was blamed. I wasn't pointing that out in order to blame Republicans for the shooting, but to show that it wasn't necessarily some kind of political vendetta.

I remember when I first checked these threads you were the last poster in all 3 trump/election threads pointing it out when it was first announced which is why I was giving you a hard time. I get defending your side but it was like 6 hours after it happened. so much more is to be learned. im honestly surprised by the lack of info since. is it confirmed his dad/mom were in two different partys ? I was searching for info on his parents but didn't find much. I found a sketchy source that said they were separated for 2 years is that true?

ya but thats kind of my point it was too early for gotcha assumptions him being a registered republican could have been a different person with the same name also. then you would be lookin pretty silly like the right wingers bringing that up

I agree. This helps Trump politically, but it won't cause some sort of dramatic shift in voting.

I don't think we can accurately describe political violence as "un-American." We've had a fair bit of it.

Not only is trying to argue that Trump getting shot is in any way a positive probably the most idiotic thing I have read in this forum in recent memory (and that is saying something), but it is a seriously bad look for everybody here.
The sad reality is that the mods allow this and by doing nothing support it .

Nothing wrong speculating if this attempt on his life benefits Trump or Biden but the rest is just disgusting. And to think some of the other things folks have been suspended for but not this

This isn't really new. If that circle ends up spreading to places that were not pro Trump then that'd be huge though.

Voter registration seems easier to verify than a political donation.

I don't mind looking silly though.
