      Would it have made a difference if they didn’t?

      Nothing inside anyway.

        The universe might have imploded from the sudden imbalance between mass and un-mass (the opposing axis of the “dark matter” posit). We might count ourselves lucky ¹.

          Or would that have been the lucky outcome after what might happen with a sympathy vote?

            I don’t think the episode changed either of our votes, do you?

              Ours? No. But I’ve never voted for a Republican in my life.

        Oh, barely. An ear is basically a pull tab for the human face. One good yank’ll do.

        It would either need Trump to have impeccable timing, despite being barely able to walk down a ramp unassisted, or rely on the shooter being able to just barely clip Trump.

            He would have to have impeccable timing still. Lifting his hand just as the gunshots ring out? I doubt Trump has the response time to consciously do that.

              Some reports say he was hit by glass from the teleprompter.

          Thank you for answering; I hadn’t seen the confirmation yet.

        Just because the head is filled with beans doesn’t mean it’s not a real head.
