That can't be the bullet that hit Trump. It's on the wrong side of his head.

How’d you determine it’s 'on' the wrong side of his head. The shot came from our left to right…and that image is after the exit of ear. Are you implying that 'trail' is to the front of his head, and how did you make that determination?

The Second Coming
BY WILLIAM BUTLER YEATS
Turning and turning in the widening gyre
The falcon cannot hear the falconer;
Things fall apart; the centre cannot hold;
Mere anarchy is loosed upon the world,
The blood-dimmed tide is loosed, and everywhere
The ceremony of innocence is drowned;
The best lack all conviction, while the worst
Are full of passionate intensity.


Surely some revelation is at hand;
Surely the Second Coming is at hand.
The Second Coming! Hardly are those words out
When a vast image out of Spiritus Mundi
Troubles my sight: somewhere in sands of the desert
A shape with lion body and the head of a man,
A gaze blank and pitiless as the sun,
Is moving its slow thighs, while all about it
Reel shadows of the indignant desert birds.
The darkness drops again; but now I know
That twenty centuries of stony sleep
Were vexed to nightmare by a rocking cradle,
And what rough beast, its hour come round at last,
Slouches towards Bethlehem to be born?

He's not great, but it's an entertaining book worth reading. Skipping Towards Gomorrah

Remember what he did to Rick Santorum?

I have had personal interactions with Rick and his family. Rick did it to himself. Savage just capitalized on it. Santorum thought he was in control for a while, but he got caught up in the Trump riptide like everyone else in 2016.

One of the interesting things regarding Trump is that he may be a victim of his own gish gallop. Yesterday's events may be forgotten in a week or two even if they weren't Trump's doing inadvertantly or directly.

Media moves at a lightning pace these days.

Presidents and candidates shouldn't be promoting or condoning violence. It encourages people.

He's done that for 8+ years.

It does not appear that Trump pulled the trigger FTR.

More details about the shooter are trickling in. We'll learn more about the motive.

The violent rhetoric has only made things worse in the US. I don't see him toning it down anytime soon.

Republicans immediately blame Biden for the violence:

However, the shooter identified as Thomas Matthew Crooks was a Republican:


https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/inv ... 397935007/


Crooks is registered to vote as a Republican in Allegheny County, Pennsylvania, according to county voter records. His voter registration status has been active since 2021.

You and people like you have been pining for a race riot/culture war since Trump has risen. Didn’t Trump circulate a photo of Biden bound and gagged in the back of a pickup? Was he calling for Mike Pence to be handled? He has done nothing to dissuade you and people like you.

National Pulse is ultra right wing and known for making up stories. By contrast, the USA Today report is documented.

The democrats alternative of WW3, hyperinflation, out of control borders, empty petroleum reserves, shrinking military that can’t recruit, more covid deaths than Trump, calling everybody who’s doesn’t accept collectivism a fascist, empty ammo supplies, skyrocketing debt, men competing in womans sports and rapidly declining life expectancies… is not compelling

I guess we’ll have to wait for Trump to report the factual news like he did on Obama admin wiretapping an opposition campaign, Russian collusion hoax, Russian bounties hoax, Covid from a Chinese lab, Hunter laptop authentic and Biden’s lack of cogent processing.

Seems to be the only trustworthy news source out there.
