Seeing the footage and the fact 1 person is dead (maybe the shooter, who knows) I don't think it's bangers or anything, the blood from the ear is damage.

Just watching news. Yes two dead.

My thought yes someone with a rifle at distance. Now which from video is protection personnel try to protect him. Yet twice he chooses to show himself after shots fired. Again putting him and security at very big risk of being killed ? He is not doing as security requires. Yes security for him does require putting their life at risk. But not in circumstances that have happened ? Him showinf face , target to shot at ?

My point any politician who has security is briefed on what to do in an attack . Keep head , body out of view.

So he decided twice to show head face etc and put his personnel at risk of being killed. He did not know the ‘shooter ‘ had been disabled ?

So you think any security who have family perhaps . Yes know risk of job . But expect who are protecting do as required by them to do as required in event of any security breach ?

By rights the focus should be on the person who actually died (this morning reports are there is one).

Strange how these shooters are never caught alive though!

I think it's the fact he's on the ground until getting told that the shooter is down, certainly seems that way with the shots, 2/3 slow (probably from the shooter) then a few frantic (probably the counter sniper team) then a lone shot (maybe the shooter twitched as dying so counter sniper shot again)

Which is in stark contrast to his previous comments.

‘The 2018 Time article was published ahead of Trump’s first visit to the U.K., and Lammy committed to be one of “tens of thousands on the streets, protesting against our government’s capitulation to this tyrant in a toupee.”

“Trump is not only a woman-hating, neo-Nazi-sympathizing sociopath. He is also a profound threat to the international order that has been the foundation of Western progress for so long,” he wrote in Time. “It is because I cherish and champion those values that this Friday, I will march with London against Donald Trump.”

Lammy criticized Trump as slandering and insulting London for political benefit, and that “Trump has barely concealed his racist attacks on the U.K.”

Some of these comments are beyond belief. Truth is mad man with a rifle who thankfully wasn't an expert shot shoots Trump. He's had a very lucky escape. Unlike the spectator who is dead. Secret service was heard to say shooter is down. That's when Trump got to his feet and fist pumped the air. If you don't like the bl9ke, I don't, then don't vote for him. Don't shoot him.

Irony being trump himself…. Let’s not forget just a few days ago he was yet again mocking the attack on Paul pelosi, husband on Nancy, in an attack at their home with a hammer, where she was apparently the intended target

Hopefully… like I said this tempers the language on all sides…

Hating someone is fine but when people start using language like "Nazi" or throwing around unhinged conspiracy theories like the Russian collusion it leeds to others committing the viliolence.

Did Mr Trump know at that point that there were no other threats to him or his security team, there could have been others, seems silly behaviour on his part when surely the priority was getting all involved to a safe place, not making grandstanding gestures.

Trump and his team now have to sell the message that guns still make the US safer and the fact that the shooter is a Republican complicates the message further Of course he will grandstand this it is all he has to be fair.

As for the election the images will appeal to his base,to the rest it proves what they thought of him and his supporters. A man filled with anger whipping up a similar type of person that there will be other incidents now seem a certainty for both parties

Did Mr Trump know at that point that there were no other threats to him or his security team, there could have been others, seems silly behaviour on his part when surely the priority was getting all involved to a safe place, not making grandstanding gestures.

His behaviour when being moved by his security team after being shot, is your main concern "

I just watched a video of the stage from the crowd. You can see secret service marksmen on the roof in the corner of the video.

Here’s the weird part, when the shooter takes his shot, the marksmen don’t have to target their guns at him. They have already got him in their sights and have done for some time.

Informally Addressing the Former President

Now, let’s look a little closer. In an informal setting (such as a private lunch), it’s acceptable to use the title the ex-official held. Here, you could refer to former President Jimmy Carter as either “President Carter” or “Mr. Carter.” In reality, many people ignore this convention and refer to former Presidents as "President Last Name" when they are in settings where nearly everyone would afford them the honor of the title. Technically, this is still incorrect but there are enough former Presidents allowing this that it has become a somewhat common mistake

"Any comment from his buddy David Lammy yet

We know the shooter was actually a registered republican…. And yet your whole contribution to the thread is to throw shade at the new foreign secretary for no reason to try to support so convoluted narrative in your head…

Wow….. "

To those unfamiliar with Pennsylvania's unique elections, they have what are known as "closed primaries", meaning you can only vote in your party's elections, which means that they can game the general elections by, more often than not, registering for the opposing party. In other words, in Pennsylvania it is extremely common (and widely encouraged) for democrats to register as republicans especially during primary season. This fact, and coupled with the fact that the shooter had previously donated money to Biden's campaign would suggest that he was, in fact, a Democrat supporter. But we shall see.

I never understand why people suggest that only "the left" are opposed to a world leader doing things like mocking a disabled reporter. Or saying thinks like "Mexicans, they're r4pists", or boasting about grabbing women by the pussy etc.

Surely most people from across the political spectrum would think this isn't admirable behaviour. (We really need a shrug emoji).

The strawman/gaslighting and ideocracy of some of these arguments... boggles the mind. You use terms and phrases that make you feel as though you've something substantial to say, yet really you are side-lining any valid points with childlike "I know you are but what am I?"

The severity at which discourse, society and civilization is declining is only exacerbated by the degree at which people continue to act in such ways.

In other words. Good day.

Me too, I’d definitely vote Donald Trump. Hope he wins.

Yes.

Psychology has a good word for that: projection.

I never understand why people suggest that only "the left" are opposed to a world leader doing things like mocking a disabled reporter. Or saying thinks like "Mexicans, they're r4pists", or boasting about grabbing women by the pussy etc.

Surely most people from across the political spectrum would think this isn't admirable behaviour. (We really need a shrug emoji)."

Lunacy is across the political spectrum.

"Another term for Donald will be good for the US. He will remove their forces from any conflict, reboot American industry, and build that wall. MAGA!"

1. Removing forces from any conflict effectively means ceding power and control to those who remain. And in that vacuum, enemies of the USA will step in and fill the void. Eg, Wagner. Or other hostile states.

.

2. Shareholders and companies make good money using overseas labour (eg China) to build western goods. The cost for labour in the US makes those businesses unable to operate using American labour which is far too expensive. Either prices go up to reflect the increased labour cost, or the business folds. IF prices go up, even less citizens in the USA will be able to afford the goods. Death spiral, basically.

.

3. Build that wall. Against who, exactly ? I can't see hordes of people wanting to bankrupt themselves with a country in end-stage capitalism and terminal decline. They won't be able to afford to live there for starters.

Nope, they have an insurance based system. Obama care helped a little but hasn't been enough. Trump was trying to remove it during the worst pandemic in living memory.

just not in the same way as it is here. Biden has done nothing for gun safety rules.

Sure, Trump wants to loosen them further.

Charlotte NC. Feel free to see how Trump dealt with the Nazis who protested there.

More Nazis, more mass shootings, no healthcare for those who are shot, should do the trick!

Having looked at the personal profile of the shooter and the weapon he used (AR15) this was clearly a disaffected youth attempting a mass shooting, not a trained assassin.

Any person making a serious attempt at assasinating Trump from 120 to 150 metres away would have used a proper sniper rifle not a AR15.

So, if the Democrats really wanted Trump shot, which President Biden can now order with impunity, they would have used a professional outside the controlled perimeter with the right weapon like a M24.

This was an attempt at a mass shooting by a disaffected youth not an assassination attempt on Trump by the Democrats.

However, the right wing will spin it as a an attempt by Biden to eliminate Trump and Trump's disciples will kneel to what they are told.

The end result will probably be more attempts on Biden's life and anyone viewed as a political threat to Trump by Trump's mindless followers.

I do not deny the shooter tried to shoot Trump but he probably wanted to shoot a lot of others as well. Trump was just the big prize.

The key point is it was yet another mass shooting, 303rd this year in the USA, not a targeted attempt at assasinating Trump.

He was at 120 to 150 metres away., If he aimed for Trump's head, he was only 75mm off his target. But, as I said, the AR15 is designed to be a multiple shot rifle for assaults not sniping.

a mass shooting is what you think was on his mind, unless he left a note that is pure speculation.

As for the distance and the rifle being used, he hit him and a fraction off being fatal, the person behind trump tragically lost their life.

I'm just not understanding why it is being seen as something it wasn't, or why you feel "more attempts on Biden's life" will occur? When did the other attempts happen?

It's really not the way to do things, to think it's ok cos he or she is an arse or one of them is a pretty stupid idea ..

If you think that it is then you need to reflect upon the fact that if such things are acceptable then so is someone doing serious harm to your loved ones 'just because'..

It's not btw..

"I think the world would be better off if the assassination was successful."

As awful as Trump is, the world would be worse if he would have been assassinated.

The US would go bezerk and the Trump supporters would likely go on a rampage with their guns.

I agree..

But it swings both ways sadly..

Yours, a centre lefty although notme thinks I'm a Tory.."

There's no such thing as a 'centre lefty', I reserve 'leftie' for deranged far left, just as I reserve 'for right' for actual deranged far right.

From this thread and others I deduce all lefties advocate murder, all lefties are loonies, all lefties aren't charitable.

What a load of absolute bs.

All lefties swear (I'll give you that)

It is down to the person!

"Biden donor in 2020.

The mental gymnastics around registered republican is quite something on X. People only deal in absolutes and have no room for nuance.

"

If you want nuance… you say he was a Biden donor in 2020

In fact it turns out he once donated a whole 15 dollars to an independent group who were a Biden affiliated PAC (Political Action Committee)

So… nuance again? Or are you also dealing in absolutes?

We learned his dad was also a registered Republican, his mum is actually a registered democrat…. He himself registered republican

Nope nuance. Keeping an open mind could be a myriad of reasons behind it all I don’t need to wet my pants over him being a republican to fit my world view like on X and I dare say on here it seems.

"Damn people complaining about him fist bumping the air after surviving an assassination attempt.

Do yall have no ability to recognise the situation, the adrenaline running through him.

‘yall,’ are you American?

No but wish I was. I'd have a meaningful candidate to actually vote for in an election. Rather than the soppy-bollox WEF acolytes we have here.

So if you were an American, you'd be able change the candidates all on your little lonesome?

Are you replying to something else? Or to a version of a message you made up in your head?

I'm responding to the impression you have given me .

I'll put it another way: how would you, on your lonesome, get a meaningful candidate to run in the presidential elections?

Yeh, you seem to have read something else.

I said that if I were American, that I'd actually have a meaningful candidate to vote for.

Meaning, we have no candidates here who are worth a vote. However, if I was American, then I would have a candidate who was.

I can't put the words into any other format for you to understand. Good luck.

Me too, I’d definitely vote Donald Trump. Hope he wins.

And they call those of us leaning to the left loonies

They do, and they are right.

Another term for Donald will be good for the US. He will remove their forces from any conflict, reboot American industry, and build that wall. MAGA!

It won't be great if he manages to remove access to healthcare for millions of ordinary Americans. Or removes gun safety rules. Or gives himself more tax breaks. Energises Nazis again. Etc etc.

Healthcare has always been accessible to poorer Americans,

Nope, they have an insurance based system. Obama care helped a little but hasn't been enough. Trump was trying to remove it during the worst pandemic in living memory.

just not in the same way as it is here. Biden has done nothing for gun safety rules.

Sure, Trump wants to loosen them further.

And Nazis? WTF??

Charlotte NC. Feel free to see how Trump dealt with the Nazis who protested there.

Trump to MAGA!

More Nazis, more mass shootings, no healthcare for those who are shot, should do the trick! "

No nazis, just a lot of people who don’t agree with the official narrative. It’s just too easy for red scum to shout Nazi, or in this country the lisping screams of ‘nartsi.’ I have no time for the likes of Hope not Soap. They only give a shit about making names for themselves, even though they are rubbish journalists.

Reportedly he used his father's weapon. It would appear that he used what he knew and could get his hands on, rather than the best tool for the job.

Too many on here are disappointed that the sniper didn’t kill the Trumpster. This obviously says more about them than it does him. With the demented president not wanting to stand down, and Donald a victim of an attempted assassination, it is obvious that the next president will be Trump. Our dick head prime minister will have to learn how to work with him, because he can put a lot of work and money our way.
