WHAT FUCKING PART OF “YOU BEST NOT MISS” ISN’T CRYSTAL CLEAR?
EVEN FUCKING HINCKLEY DID BETTER
VALERIE SOLANAS WOULD HAVE BEEN A BETTER ASSASSIN
She also used a 22 iirc
pffft hunter has Immunity and Guns he can ust try again…
My new personal conspiracy theory that I will believe as a bit is that Hunter is a CIA field agent and the real life inspiration for the character Stirling Archer from the show Archer
Hunter
Archer
You miss 100% of the shots you don’t take
and apparently 100% of the ones you do take, depending on how bad of a shot you are
Americans spend all their lives obsessing over guns then miss their shot. The most useless people on earth.

Red states are also privatized so they can only shoot 1 round every minute at indoor ranges

That’s an incredible photo. Wow.
It’s genuine Pulitzer prize material.
Yeah. That’s a photo for the ages. I’d be disappointed if it wasn’t a Pulitzer winner.
The dude staring into the camera ruined it imo. Really screwed the composition
sent it to a friend and the immediate response was “oh no we’re so cooked”
okay this is going in history textbooks
Lmao this is gonna be a mondale moment for Biden
Genuinely pisses me off how Trump keeps doing the raised fist. He did it with his trial too. That’s our symbol you can’t take that from us :/
r/conservative now calls the raised fist “the new MAGA salute” https://www.reddit.com/r/Conservative/comments/1e2qkme/this_is_the_new_maga_salute/

Excited to be executed by paramilitaries when he gets power. Nice talking to yall
Well, on the one hand, I’ve never materially been a threat to the established order in any serious way because I just sit at home, on the other hand said disability makes me a target anyway so. o7 to you as all as well.
I should probably get a gun or something… at least take one down with me when they kick my door in.
I was dragging my feet on it but I’m 100% purchasing more than one after this event. If the brownshirts come knocking, I refuse to leave this planet with a K/D ratio below 1.
harpers ferry time
ok you got me with the power of a solid deal. i looked up reviews and people say it’s a pretty solid gun, and that seems straight up dirt cheap. i guess ill be finding the time to get out to a range sometime soon lmao
whoa… that seems cheap? I thought the gun alone would be like $1k
deleted by creator
you know ive been considering getting a gun for a while, for normal purposes with no intention to ever shoot anyone. but now i feel like i shouldn’t get one for a while, considering my recent comments regarding this incident combined with a firearm purchase would look REALLY bad to any bad-faith observers lmao
It was an honor 🫡
o7 don’t forget to take them with you
noooo kristina
Do you have dual citizenship or some other way of leaving the US?
the spoiler version looks like a puppy
We really need a rorschach emote
there was no assassin, it’s fake blood and someone fired a BB pistol in the air
Trump bladed (CW: blood, references to self-harm in link) like they do in pro wrestling.
Seriously though, we are probably fucked. And not just libs, but everyone to the left of MAGA.
I think his ear might’ve actually been wounded. Possibly from blading yea
yeah everyone is fucked
Trump worked himself into a shoot? What a mark.
Lol this bit is silly.
i want to believe
Anarchist: killed a president
Communist (CIA patsy): killed a president
Democrat: misses
Oswald never fired a gun that day. He tested negative for GSR.
No, but the CIA reincarnated Lenin using Juche necromancy and placed him on the grassy knoll
You don’t have to recite basic history to me.
None of the witnesses who saw the shooter definitively ID’d Oswald or placed blame on him. Most of his coworkers’ testimonies suggest that they only saw him go upstairs alone during the motorcade, or leaving after JFK is shot. It seems a bit silly to have this complex conspiracy and not coerce or stage a single testimony that says with 100% conviction “yup I saw Mr. Oswald on top aiming his sniper rifle right down at the president” if your goal is to frame an innocent man
Your reasoning seems pretty backwards, “there’s no evidence he did it, so he probably did” is what your comment reads like.
The reasoning that “the CIA carried out a complex assassination plot and failed to place witnesses to implicate a patsy” is dumber
No it’s not. All of the evidence points to that being the case. Is it possible you’re just not familiar with the facts of the case?
we really are a fallen empire. can’t even get assassinations right nowadays
“If Trump wins its the end of US democracy”
“He’ll make himself a dictator”
“Project 2025!!! Google it Jack!!!”
Dems using that propaganda AND doing absolutely nothing about it (not even having a plan to pay lip service to about it) AND Pudding Brain Joe saying he’s not going anywhere - just he’s going to do his goodest job and that’s what really matters Jack. I can see where someone’s brain could break in the wrong way to do this.
If you’re going to throw your life away over this bullshit though, at least don’t miss
When Gabrielle Giffords was shot in Arizona, Democrats blamed it on Sarah Palin having targets on her flyers or something. Didn’t Palin win a lawsuit about it, even?
The chuds are going to be insufferable about this.
That’s right! I forgot about that lol.
As well they should be. If I was on the other side, I’d be 50centing as hard as I could after this
Society if the democrats didn’t expect the base to have a will to live for them
He sounds like he didn’t really miss just hit the plexiglass
well, he’s won then.
No, here’s how the Dems can still win:
We all know who’s turn it is!
great hexminds think alike
the greatest hexmind strikes 15 seconds earlier
Yeah no contest
“he’s an existential threat to democracy but there’s no place for violence and we should all be relieved he’s alive and going to take revenge” - obungler
Shows the importance of not skipping range time. If someone had trained just a little harder, we could have had something extremely cool happen.
Also that’s a tiny wound. Are they usually that small or did someone try to off him with a Ruger 10/22?
Could very well have been .22 subsonic ammo. If the shooter had a 3D printed plastic gun, that would minimize the chance of it blowing up.
With the number of rounds fired, it probably wasn’t 3D printed. I know a bunch of libs are saying staged, but this is definitely in line with the tactics of the far right. False flags and excuses for mass political violence are common. Especially with the new presidential immunity they want to use and know the Democrats won’t touch because they’re allergic to power.
I’m really skeptical that he would deliberately risk getting shot in the face like that.
The idea would be that he was never at risk, no one shot at him. He just had a squib in his hat, waited for the sound, then dropped to the floor.
If he was actually hit I don’t think he’d be acting like that, so he’s definitely either acting or the blood is from being grabbed by like 9 secret service guys and not a bullet.
Trump is garbage at almost everything but he knows how to get ratings. I think he’s capable of doing anything in the moment if he’ll get attention for it
Yeah, I don’t buy it
Definitely a possibility too. His reaction was extremely fucking composed, all things considered.
Local news is saying someone in the crowd died. I don’t think it’s a false flag. https://www.wtae.com/article/trump-butler-rally-2024/61587781
Really looking forward to hearing all the usual suspects like Alex Jones saying this was a fake shooting. That’ll happen for sure.
also they went for the head, a fake shooting doesnt aim for the head and only barely miss
Yeah, it would have to be something like the pro wrestling move of him applying blood to his own ear, which seems really unlikely. I think it’s much more likely that somebody just missed by a hair.
Would he say into the mic “Wait let me get my shoes”?
I thought that was weird too, but could have been a little shock
Yeah people do and say weird things in shock.
Sure, you care about weird shit when you’ve just survived a near death experience. You think things like “don’t wanna be barefoot when the adrenaline rush kicks down”
That is what I was suggesting. Nobody stages an event like that and thinks including “Wait let me get my shoes” is a good look.
The secret service was slow to take him down too. Obvious shots ring out and they wait until they see trumps ear bleeding to move. It’s too early for crazy suspicion, but my initial thought is its pretty sus
New word is that Trump’s injury is due to shards of glass and he may not have been shot
Can I get a source? I can’t find anything.
Sorry, I saw it on a stream and forgot who the tweet was by. News hasn’t said “he was shot” though just that he is injured, so there isn’t confirmation yet that it was a bullet that hit him.
It was false, trump confirms he was hit by a bullet on truth social
I’m not sure if someone can tell what they’re being shot with. I have no idea where the glass would from so I believe it
People were saying from the teleprompter? But ya, it’s a chaotic seen and hard to know. All he could tell was sound of bullets followed by something hitting his ear.
It only matters because if it was a bullet, that fucker missed by only an inch. If it was by glass from nearby then they weren’t that close to actually killing him
The initial report phase seems over. I think we’ll need to wait till investigations come out.
But also, his statement was from after being treated so I imagine they know
/r/politics is in full-scale defeatism mode now. It’s like 50% accusations of it being staged, and 50% despair that he’s effectively already won.
50% despair that he’s effectively already won.
After seeing the fistpump photo I share /r/politics feelings on this. I think this sealed it.
His victory was already sealed, this sealed him as a messiah for his
supporters. He can do whatever now.I’m feeling genuine fear. Need to log off
Yeah that pic goes hard as fuck and I say that as someone who hates Trump, hates America and think our ugly ass flag looks better when it’s on fire
but that pic is objectively goodYeah I saw the fist pump and was like… ooof… that’s that.
That’s pretty much true of here as well.
That’s why it’s so bizarre to see on /r/politics. Normally they’re totally detached from reality.
Biden’s debate performance broke some, and the others are Blue-Anon/Russiagaters who are happy to call this a false flag.
Probably too many people who are real users flooding the site to get out-botted like they usually are.
He had already won when he woke up this morning.

It’s always about turnout. The people who would change their mind at this point are marginal morons. What matters is you getting your guys into those fucking booths and this is going to energize the hogs to turn up. How much they will is up for debate since we’re so far out from the election and Americans have worse long term memories than goldfish.
no more half measures walter
shooter took several half-measures. Used a low caliber firearm. Didn’t aim for Trump’s torso.
Just poor showing overall. They should have called you, Mike
