Looks like someone took some shots at prez candidate Donald Trump at a rally in PA. From the videos I’ve seen, it looks like he did get grazed.

Nice
The crowing will begin soon
I see blood but I don’t see a wound. Are they really going to try and pass that the perfect hole there is a bullet hole? Wouldn’t a gun shot wound there take a bigger portion of the ear?
Depends on the round. A lot of factors come into play on gunshot wounds, including velocity, mass, resistance, angle. There is even some possibility that the round just barely missed, but the displacement of air is actually what broke skin.

That is an urban legend. I’ve been missed by some pretty large caliber rounds in war and I’ve seen some pretty large caliber rounds barely miss people. No damage is done. You have to make contact with the round (or vice versa) for it to do damage.

I’m literally just a dude. I usually don’t have time to post, and haven’t really felt the need to comment, but I had a rare day off where i felt like I could actually take part in conversation.
Guy I agree his account history looks a little sus, but isn’t that a little bit of the pot calling the kettle black? You have 3 comments since December.See below.
I don’t comment a lot, but I have way more comments than that.
Ah I see why, I had the main few communities you post in blocked. My bad. I rescind my comment. Note to everyone else: Check histories in a private tab so you can see even communities that you have blocked.
Depends on the hit. There’s not much blood so it might just be a graze.
Probably bounced off his thick skull.
Paramedic here. All parts of the head are very vascular, and so any head injury at all bleeds fantastically. If the top of his ear got clipped, that would be enough to produce that much blood.
Christ. Now I’m envisioning his future campaign speeches. “They try to shoot me down, I am an immortal.”
Immortan.
Immotan-gelo.
immoral
we’ll never hear the end of it.
We will hear it for another 10 years when he finally has his hamburger heart attack.
Sweet, shoot again
Campaign? Doesn’t really need to even campaign anymore after this. Maybe he will mention it at a state of the confedarcy talk or something. These are such shitty times.
Remember that Biden is immune thanks to the SCOTUS.
He has a alibi, he’s in Delaware. But as long as it was an official act, he could order it.
He wouldn’t do it himself. He would order Seal Team 6 to do t. They wouldn’t have missed, though.
Nah, this was obviously Hunter Biden in a Gritty Suit. The gunman who got massacred by the cops was just a patsy like Lee Harvey Oswald
A Libertarian friend from Florida joking suggested Hunter Biden. I think it was Melania.

Come on man, you’re making me laugh at someone getting shot. XD

Right after meeting with Orban who just met with Putin? I don’t know if I really think that, but I would say it’s possible.

That’s called a false flag attack. I could believe it, but I could also believe it was a sincere attack.
Being serious about it for a moment, it’s extremely unlikely that it’s a false flag attack. It’s fun to joke about the idea, but the reality is that it doesn’t appear to be staged, and he’s far too much of a coward to agree to have somebody shoot at him.
Besides that, there’s plenty of politically-unaffiliated groups or individuals who would probably want him gone just for how his last term contributed to the abortion bans, reunification of church and state (in some states), government corruption, etc.
No one needs to actually shoot at him, he can just have a capsule of fake blood in his hand and smear it on himself at the right moment. It’s so easy even he can do it.
Could also have been a real shooter.
there’s also plenty of fence sitters and centrists who I sincerely believe would vote for him on tough guy vibes alone, despite him being a coward
Hes fully too much of a coward to be shot at.
But you’re assuming he was shot at. Ducked, hidden away from camera, then blood on him.
No one is ducking a bullet
Would he be told about this plan? It’d certainly be more convincing if he didn’t know, and was set up by the RNC.
I would not put this beyond him.
I think it would be. Not morally, just i don’t think he’s competent enough.
From the article:
Trump stood up and held his fist in the air with what appeared to be blood dripping down his face.
Several secret service agents surrounded him as he put his hand up and appeared to shout “fight” to his supporters who began cheering.
An excellent PR stunt and call to action for his violent insurrectionist supporters, if you ask me.
Ex-prez, please.
sic semper tyrannis
Are you referencing Brutus or John Wilkes Booth?
Definitely not Booth lol
Glad to hear it, but I hope you can see why I had to ask.
I had forgotten he said it. A complete Biden of me!
Or the Virginia state motto
Interesting. TIL. I also learned this from Wikipedia-
A joke referencing the image on the seal that dates as far back as the Civil War, is that “Sic semper tyrannis” actually means “Get your foot off my neck.”
Fairly sure that was where Booth got the motto. He lived in the state for some time.
I think it was explicitly a Julius Caesar reference. He was also a Shakespearean actor.
One of the videos you can hear “shooter down” before he gets up. Elderly, near death experience, and monumental arrogance would help explain his reaction pretty well!
Shooting him isn’t the way - but I can see why someone was scared enough to think it was. Just remember kids, voting for Biden isn’t just voting against trumpler - it’s saying you would literally prefer someone who is probably senile overhim. It’s a solid insult, and you should go out there on polling day to make sure he hears it.
