    You know, given someone was shot dead at his rally, I’m not sure how much I care if he was shot in the ear or not. I know there might be some mouth breathers who think he’s cooler for getting grazed in the ear but like… It was still an assassination attempt regardless, right? Or is the conspiracy that someone really hated that ex-firefighter?

    Point is, miss by an inch or miss by a mile, a shot was shot. I hate the guy but debating the state of this assholes ear seems like a waste when we could be talking about Harris, lol

      there is no conspiracy, people are laughing at him for being fucking pussy trying to harvest some sympathy.

      person who said “he loves soldiers who did not get captured” now wears menstrual pad on his head for effect when it is clearly not necessary.

      I mean sure. I agree with everything you said.

      It doesn’t matter if he was hit or not and someone is dead (actually 2 people). However–and I’m not saying I buy into this–if I had to pick a person / campaign who would set up live fire into a crowd and who cares who gets hit if the “target” gets a good photo op, it is trump all day long. And the kicker of THAT is I could imagine someone doing a bane / dark Knight rises “someone has to be in the wreckage” volunteer to get swiss cheesed by secret service.

      I don’t think the shooter kid meets that profile, but this is within the realm of possible for a fucker like trump.

        It’s also within the realm of possible that, if there were a conspiracy, they could’ve simply lied to the shooter and told him that he wouldn’t be treated like a disposable loose end.

      Just because audience got shot doesn’t mean every bullet was a real round.

      Again, we don’t know until proven so take this with lots of salt but, it’s not too hard to make the first 3 shots a blank, trump hides after the first few shots, and the shooter keeps shooting the non blank shots.

      I think his team is too incompetent to pull this off, but it’s definitely possible.
