Curious if this guy got a chunk of change from someone associated with Trump's campaign. What are the odds 2 attempts within months of each other... Highly suspicious ..
I thought the alleged shooter was paid because he wasn’t killed like the previous alleged assassin! Also did the campaign look for a Republican that made donations to the Democrats? The in PA the Secret Service notice the shooter on a roof not a hundred yards away and now they see the barrel of the gun 500 yards away? Trump’s campaign is assuming we are all as gullible as their MAGAs! Enough!!
Remember all the suicide bombers will to die for their religious indoctrination? I believe many MAGAs fit this psychological profile and will do anything on behalf of their god, Trump.
In addition, there are three possible Trump International golf courses Trump could have been at that day near Mar-a-Lago. How did the shooter know to go to that one. He had been there since 2:00 a.m. that morning. Trump wasn’t even within gun shot range when he stuck the rifle out of the bushes, and the Secret Service miraculously saw it 500 yds away. The only shots fired were from the USSS officer. It all sounds too fishy!
The SS person who spotted the weapon was advance walking the perimeter of the golf course and saw a gun barrel poking a few inches out of the bushes on the fence line near the next tee. He didn’t spot it from 500 yds. Trump was on another tee 500 yds. away and would have moved to the next tee nearer the shooter’s lair. The SS person fired into the bushes where the gun barrel protruded and the shooter bolted to his car.
It’s quite possible that Trump et al applied lessons learned from Putin, who finds useful idiots to carry out subversive actions and/or hit jobs. The obviously unstable Routh appears to have craved heroic status, ie., “saving Ukraine” (the military rejected his offers, he was too much of a kook). So why not offer this guy fame and fortune, promises to get him out of jail, if he just set up the appearance of an attempted assignation?
This attempt now provides apparent permission for J.D.Vance to claim that the only difference between conservatives and liberals is that no one has attempted to assassinate anyone on the left, essentially a dog whistle to those who are salivating over doing so.
Autumn of the Species, I totally agree with that point. Reptiles and animals all have far more integrity and ethics than any of the MAGA cult members, Trump and his sycophants.
As you will recall, an attempt on Nancy Pelosi's (while she was still Speaker) life was made. Her husband answered the door of their home and a man attacked him in the head with a hammer and injured him.
not a popular thing to say I know, but how many of us are thinking it…………... He is that bad really…….I seriously think so, and spose its easier coz he dont give a shit bout anyone else……unless it makes him look good. You can see him soaking it in and loving it….he can’t hide loving adulation and praise. We all need it, but he feeds on it……
“The man in custody in connection with what is being described as a second attempt to assassinate former President Donald Trump was vocal about U.S. support for Ukraine and has a long criminal and civil court history, including a conviction for possessing a machine gun.”
I had similar thoughts after the PA incident. Even now, can anyone tell me what has happened with that case? With the shooter’s family? Have they disappeared yet from PA ‘for the sake of their privacy’?
Remember the old days when an assassination, or attempt (JFK, MLK, RFK, Ford, Reagan, John Lennon, to name a few), created a storm of demanding investigative jurnalism, medical reports, ballistic reports, and more. From the attempt in PA we got a private Dr's comments and an ear that healed with regenerative swiftness. If there was ANY remaining damage or scar, he would be having masses of photos taken. (Any AI photos would have him with 3 right ears and varying types of damage.) 😠😤
One the one hand, I can understand 2 attempts, and even more.
On the other, we haven't been given basic information about the 1st attempt. So the idea of a 2nd doesn't stand up any better than starched toilet paper in the rain.
Exactly what I have thought. This is highly suspicious. I think it's just another fictional event to deflect attention and to start a new GRIFT going to raise money from the orange Mussolini's useful idiots.
This is an attempt to take as much press coverage away from Kamala Harris as possible. That's how those criminals operate.
No shots were fired, but the Trump campaign announced there were. Were it Harris with the same comment, the press would try to ruin her with the discrepancy.
Bonnie, you're so right.....but haven't you wondered why the Press isn't inquiring about Trump's possession of a firearm??? He's a convicted FELON and not allowed to possess a firearm, nobody's ever answered (to my knowledge) what happened to Trump's firearm, when and where was it turned in???? Who did the paperwork on it?? And....why has nobody interviewed Trump's PROBATION OFFICER??????
In reality, Trump's already VIOLATED his probation and anyone else would be sitting in a probation surrender hearing!!! Why is he being allowed to coast yet again?? 🤬
It's crazy to me that this is being called an attempted assassination when the only shots fired were from the secret service. The fact that Dumbass in the second degree finally admitted that they lie to advance their agenda only proves what we have all known all along but, sadly, the people who need the hear it are the ones who will continue to not listen.
Wow! I read comments on another Substack that talked about the "assassination attempt", and could not really tell if it was a conspiracy theory or not. After reading this newsletter, I'm thinking that the people who thought this was a set up were correct. We definitely need more facts, but the information so far is pretty damning. Thank you, Dean, for writing about this.
I don't believe in either attempt. We know that the Orange Combover is an attention whore. And since everyone is paying attention to V.P. Harris, he needs to do something to get the attention back to him. So, an "assassination" attempt.
The only problem I have with not believing the first attempt was real is that a bullet was fired that did kill someone. At the same time, it's clear that the shooter must not have been aiming at trump.
Collateral damage. They don't care if anyone else gets hurt or killed. If it makes the scenario more dramatic and effective, then it's just fine if others get killed in the process. Just think, how does the shooter (with a scope, and accounting for wind variables, distance etc.) hit a guy in the audience BEHIND Trump's billboard sized fat orange ass and then doesn't get a total body mass shot accomplished???? Does that make sense??? No, it doesn't. It makes no sense when you consider JFK'S assassination. The shooter was much further away and accomplished a head shot on a moving target!! Trumputin was basically a stationary target. It doesn't add up. Plus, we'll never know other details because they conveniently killed the shooter.....no loose ends. Smells like Roger Stone to me.
I’ll reserve judgment on whether it’s real. My question is to Republicans: If you have any suggestions on how to prevent this sort of thing from happening again, I’m all ears.* Until then, in the words of Stonekettle, if you don’t care about guns near schools I don’t care about guns near Trump. This is the world you wanted.
*(NB: “Cancel the election and hand the presidency to Trump immediately by acclamation,” which is your solution to everything, is not a valid suggestion.)
Trump is MASA: Make Americans Slaves Again. DEMOCRACY is on the ballot and we cannot lose. We cannot afford to fail. The world is counting on us to show the way.
Look, when you make statements like that you look delusional. The first incident would have been very difficult to fake. It’s plausible that he was not hit by a bullet given his quick recovery.
This whole event is bull shit. A contrived event from a serial liar. Google earth the golf course. Look at the surrounding streets (3) that parallel the course and you tell me how a guy parks a car (where) got out with a rifle, a backpack, and wasn’t noticed? How the fuck did he know Trump was even there? I mean it’s not like they post his schedule for the average Joe so he can take a shot at him. The shots fired were from the SS agent and the (supposed) shooter dropped the rifle, then why is it leaning against the fence in the picture? So much BS it stinks here in Kansas and I can smell it.
The guy was no where near Trump when the Secret Service opened fire on him as they should have. He was pointing a weapon of war at the golf course. Trump was never in any real danger, except perhaps if one of the players he was cheating decided to punch him out. Another pumped up story to save a failing campaign. And we are still waiting for a medical report on his supposed gunshot wound, on his ear, that shows no damage.
Very fortunate that there happened to be a casual bystander on the side of a golf course with the presence of mind to notice a guy running AND a camera (cellphone) to take a picture of the guy’s car AND license plate b
Edward Jay Allan, you read my mind!! I was thinking the same thing. How is it that there's an observer right there!! Someone so astute as to quickly think "well damn, I should film this dude and get a photo of his tags too, just in case" ..... I mean, what are the odds of that???? Mountainous piles of 💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩
One thing that follows trumputin every where , every day, is chaos. He is a master of deceit, misinformation, ignorant opinions, lack of reason and devoid of all good qualities, only self interest. He is a toxic agent of the Kremlin, and other dictators.
Curious if this guy got a chunk of change from someone associated with Trump's campaign. What are the odds 2 attempts within months of each other... Highly suspicious ..
I thought the alleged shooter was paid because he wasn’t killed like the previous alleged assassin! Also did the campaign look for a Republican that made donations to the Democrats? The in PA the Secret Service notice the shooter on a roof not a hundred yards away and now they see the barrel of the gun 500 yards away? Trump’s campaign is assuming we are all as gullible as their MAGAs! Enough!!
Remember all the suicide bombers will to die for their religious indoctrination? I believe many MAGAs fit this psychological profile and will do anything on behalf of their god, Trump.
Yes yes they would kill theirselves if need for their cult leader
Please let it be, let it be, let it be.
great point re seeing the gun barrell. apparently he didnt even have line of sight to tRump yet...according to FBI.
but its has since come out that he would have had a perfect line of sight and better shot when tRump got top the 6th hole.
You’re absolutely correct!
You’re absolutely right! Unfortunately, I couldn’t agree with you more
In addition, there are three possible Trump International golf courses Trump could have been at that day near Mar-a-Lago. How did the shooter know to go to that one.

Well said
Cathy, You raise another very valid point here 💯👍
The in PA the Secret Service notice the shooter on a roof not a hundred yards away => did NOT notice the shooter
?

My God. What SNAKES.
You insult snakes, grievously so.
Autumn of the Species, I totally agree with that point. Reptiles and animals all have far more integrity and ethics than any of the MAGA cult members, Trump and his sycophants.
As you will recall, an attempt on Nancy Pelosi's (while she was still Speaker) life was made. Her husband answered the door of their home and a man attacked him in the head with a hammer and injured him.
he actually seems like a good guy........i dunno if he did crave status. It does seem pretty suss tho...I agree.
Yes, but damn! He missed ! 😉
not a popular thing to say I know, but how many of us are thinking it…………... He is that bad really…….I seriously think so, and spose its easier coz he dont give a shit bout anyone else……unless it makes him look good. You can see him soaking it in and loving it….he can’t hide loving adulation and praise. We all need it, but he feeds on it……
He's cheated and abused so many people for so long. He's essentially gotten away with it too. A really vile, despicable human being.
Well, there’s this:
“The man in custody in connection with what is being described as a second attempt to assassinate former President Donald Trump was vocal about U.S. support for Ukraine and has a long criminal and civil court history, including a conviction for possessing a machine gun.”

You summed it up perfectly 👍
I had similar thoughts after the PA incident. Even now, can anyone tell me what has happened with that case? With the shooter’s family? Have they disappeared yet from PA ‘for the sake of their privacy’?
we dont hear a lot about bullets found etc.....good call Nate

You’re right - except the firefighter who died, the other wounded individuals got mentioned initially and then disappeared from the story.
Yup and Trump went golfing at the last minute too…..
Mmmmm🤔
Exactly
I completely agree with you!
One the one hand, I can understand 2 attempts, and even more.
On the other, we haven't been given basic information about the 1st attempt. So the idea of a 2nd doesn't stand up any better than starched toilet paper in the rain.

And the mainstream media are it all up with a spoon and chewed the cud for HOURS. Boring, irrelevant, un fact checked,
yeah, like how many times do you have Breaking News and its the same ...chewing cud is a great description......
No shots were fired, but the Trump campaign announced there were. Were it Harris with the same comment, the press would try to ruin her with the discrepancy.
Yes only in Florida can one be arrested for NOT firing a gun.
Bonnie, you're so right.....but haven't you wondered why the Press isn't inquiring about Trump's possession of a firearm??? He's a convicted FELON and not allowed to possess a firearm, nobody's ever answered (to my knowledge) what happened to Trump's firearm, when and where was it turned in????

In reality, Trump's already VIOLATED his probation and anyone else would be sitting in a probation surrender hearing!!! Why is he being allowed to coast yet again?? 🤬
You are absolutely correct!
Unfortunately it is working because of MSM fools.
Corporate media, no longer MSM.
darn! i was hoping the gold sneakers would go on sale......
😂
agree totally
Fantastic fundraiser, and OMG does that orange man need funds.
It's crazy to me that this is being called an attempted assassination when the only shots fired were from the secret service. The fact that Dumbass in the second degree finally admitted that they lie to advance their agenda only proves what we have all known all along but, sadly, the people who need the hear it are the ones who will continue to not listen.
Exactly. If you're getting charged with "attempted" anything, shouldn't you "attempt" the action first?
That was a fabulous comment 😆
No. Attempted is merely a legal term for the lesser of an offense in the same general category.
Bill, legally, the "attempt" starts with showing up with the long gun and lying in wait.
I loved your post
😢😢😢 truth.
Every single word of this, Dean.
Thanks for not giving the threat of "conspiracy theorist" room to trespass on critical, common sense analysis.
Wonderful response

After reading this newsletter, I'm thinking that the people who thought this was a set up were correct. We definitely need more facts, but the information so far is pretty damning. Thank you, Dean, for writing about this.
We still need many more facts- could turn it real or not. But blindly accepting what Trump or corporate media says is a big mistake
I agree with your original assessment of this situation
I couldn't agree more.
I don't believe in either attempt. We know that the Orange Combover is an attention whore. And since everyone is paying attention to V.P. Harris, he needs to do something to get the attention back to him. So, an "assassination" attempt.
The only problem I have with not believing the first attempt was real is that a bullet was fired that did kill someone. At the same time, it's clear that the shooter must not have been aiming at trump.
Or was a bad shot.
Collateral damage. They don't care if anyone else gets hurt or killed. If it makes the scenario more dramatic and effective, then it's just fine if others get killed in the process.

it's a really sad situation. Missing trump truly doesn't make sense. Roger Stone is nasty enough to think up something like that.
The man killed “was an unfortunate sacrifice.” My words. I can’t imagine his family’s grief being in the wrong place at the wrong time.
that's my struggle too......
He and MAGA would definitely go that low. Disgusting 🤮
You are absolutely correct! That’s what narcissists do!
Totally agree. Love the orange combover moniker tio.!
I’ll reserve judgment on whether it’s real. My question is to Republicans: If you have any suggestions on how to prevent this sort of thing from happening again, I’m all ears.* Until then, in the words of Stonekettle, if you don’t care about guns near schools I don’t care about guns near Trump.

I loved your post!
I firmly agree that this was probably a stunt like the last one
You think the last one was a stunt? Based on what??
Look, when you make statements like that you look delusional. The first incident would have been very difficult to fake. It’s plausible that he was not hit by a bullet given his quick recovery.
The second incident could easily have been faked.
Stay on course. Respect reality.
This whole event is bull shit. A contrived event from a serial liar. Google earth the golf course. Look at the surrounding streets (3) that parallel the course and you tell me how a guy parks a car (where) got out with a rifle, a backpack, and wasn’t noticed?

The shots fired were from the SS agent and the (supposed) shooter dropped the rifle, then why is it leaning against the fence in the picture? So much BS it stinks here in Kansas and I can smell it.
Trump will stop at nothing to create a national crisis no matter how many die.
I still don't believe the last "attempt" was real.
I completely agree
I agree with you

Exactly. Don’t hold your breath.
It’s got Roger Stone written all over it.
💥 BINGO 💥. I've been saying this for a while now. 😉
Maybe…

Wrong. If he's a "master" of deceit he'd be able to keep his lies straight. He obviously can't anymore. Also, LOVE trumputin! A new nickname!
I am sticking with Convicted Felon, although, trumputin is very clever.
Trumputin is perfect!! 😂
