For that matter, the successful assassination of JFK didn’t stop Johnson from handling Vietnam so poorly, and didn’t stop Nixon from being Nixon to begin with.

Operation Northwoods.

Ronald Reagan was shot at and hit in 1981, but it took the nuclear near miss in 1983 for him to de-escalate his rhetoric.

The worst thing John Hinkley ever did was choose to use a .22 that day. Based as hell for taking a shot at The Devil (.tm) like he did. The man is a hero. But damn did he choose his weapon poorly. (Jodie Foster thought it was hot)

it’s important to remember that Trump was shot. Eleven months ago today, actually. It did nothing to stop this,

Because it was a setup. Not an organic shooting.

Remember when Steve Scalice (sp?) got shot? Remember PLAY BALL all over the internet? That had the desired effect. It works. When its real.

We live in the future.

For 3 grand you can buy a smart scope that does all the trig for you. You tell it where you want to hit. Plug in the weight, barrel length, powder charge, etc. It does the math and gives you a firing solution.

It’s called “Blading” and it is a wrestling move. Outlawed internationally. Used to be very popular.

Hundreds of protests all over the country. It’s gonna be glorious.

Chump knows he’s hated. Its why his big beautiful bullshit is gonna have 19 miles of fencing and hundreds of metal detectors.

Never the less. Godspeed to any who take aim. May their aim be true and their pursuers be slow.

Edit - inb4 - I am of the opinion that we should never go more than 20 years without a president being shot. Kill or wound doesn’t matter. Party doesn’t matter. Every elected representative needs that periodic reminder of both their own mortality and that they can be reached if their actions become odious.

Sing it with me folks!

Nah. Hold it anyway. Maybe we’ll get lucky and the clown prince will catch all his karma at once in the form of a lightning bolt.

Iran has the right to defend itself.

If necessary.

We expecting Greenland to launch nukes or something?

It’s an old one. The US has been aligned wirh Israel for decades.

Shut up and raise my son bootlicker.

I will be draft dodging. I’m not going to fight in the next war on peace.

I’ll be here at home. Fucking military wives.

If we were allowed to be honest that’s what everyone would say. But honesty doesn’t pay. Lying does. Spinning a yarn of bullshit about opportunity and gratitude yields a better result sadly.

Unsurprising.

Maybe a couple dozen more of the cryptkeepers will die off before midterms and they’re forced to take on some younger blood that isn’t sucked from virgins.

This guy sucks soooooo much. I hate that he’s probably going to use all this in a presidential bid.

It’ll probably work. In the unlikely event we do have another election. I’ll probably vote for him too. But he does suck when he’s not taking advantage of a fat orange shitbag. Just remember that.

Saw someone call them ICE-ICE and almost spit out my coffee.
