You don’t even need to believe it was planned by anyone else. It’s just not that insane that a MAGA person would attempt to shoot Trump.

1. the is the obvious assumption so perhaps it was an attempt at a false flag. Kill Trump, someone succeeds him, gains his supporters and the support of those who think the left did it.

2. he supported Trump until… Pick your poison. Epstein revelations. Some other policy position that he waffled on.

3. so mentally ill he backed Trump but then did this in some sort of fugue state. “Trump has been replaced by aliens. If I shoot the guy pretending to be him the ruse will be over and I will have saved the country!”

Off the top of my head.

That’s the joke

Go watch Andor

That’s what a projection is.

Oh classic.

A security breach? This time of year? Localized entirely on my cell phone? SKINNNNER

Maybe Mexico should have invaded Texas after George Floyd.

Its shocking how so much Russia defending sounds just like the Bush excuses for Iraq. “Well we didn’t find weapons of mass destruction, but the leader was just really awful so we had to, right?”

Incorporating an HOA or a company making a retirement village is not really the same as Amazon or Monsanto funding some sort of handshake with the state government to make some sort of lawless zone for them to take advantage of.

Don’t you need to give all your information to AI if you have ever interacted with the government in the past?

We tried to resolve this with legislation and the right wing crazies killed it each time. It’s not like the average Democratic voter wants an undocumented underclass. The business interests do. And the GOP leadership gets to fund raise on the caravans.

Most Americans want a better life for these people. Step one isn’t to spend a trillion dollars to deport them all.

In theory, the death penalty makes some sense. It’s a right the government reserves for itself (violence) and I think in some contexts it makes sense to be on the table. In practice, it’s more expensive than a life sentence, and it’s a blunt and racist tool to maintain unjust social and state power.

I wish every governor and president commuted 95% of death penalty situations. It’s a major injustice that most executions were carried out, even for those who belief it’s something the government should be doing.

Right but then someone who doesn’t share your cult might try to get medical care you disagree with or something.

Yeah but my daughter lost a volleyball game so fuck you

People on the internet: well he was never indicted and convicted so we should let it all go

Me: so what was all that money for? Braces?

It’s almost like maybe we could try a new political system. Whiplash was not intended but is now obviously the best case scenario.

Newspaper and politicians are never going to challenge capitalism.

I’m really excited to save five dollars a year on eggs and lose $5400 a year on everything else. Omelletes have never tasted so sweet.

“Baseless? So they could be true and there is just no evidence at all?”

Why do we need laws against standing next to golf courses with guns? It’s already illegal to shoot the president.

Biden should get on the floor and force a debate. Bring a nerf gun and just start shooting people who disagree or email in an end of debate.
