      Remember that they also trained him to be so good as to only scratch Trump.

      And ofc this was coordinated. Trump is famous for not improvising weird bullshit on the spot. So ofc he’d be able to coordinate with the shooter to just turn his head. /S

      “Something’s not right here” is always people who somehow assume bad things literally only happen in movies, despite their explanation for what is missing being something more complex than Ocean’s 11 heist plans.

        Nah, anything that dramatic wasn’t necessary. Tell the kid to aim to miss, assure him he’ll just be arrested.

        You just need a sucker, an attempt, an SS agent on your side, and a squib.

          Don’t needlessly increase entities.

          Which is more likely, a crazy person going after a crazy person, or ELABORATE GOVERNMENT SCAM LOZARD PEOPLE ARE ON YOUR TAIL

          ffs, go touch grass

            You’re the one who thinks this shit is complicated and not easy. Next thing you’ll be saying Trump wouldn’t accept someone else dying for his personal gain!

              There’s nothing complicated about a would be presidential assasin who acted alone.

              History is literally riddled with them.

              But your ideas of comic book level conspiracies? Occam’s razor says no.

                Man, I’m coming to the conclusion that y’all just lazy AF and think any plan with more than one step is difficult.

                  I mean, I definitely believe that Trump would stage an assassination for political points. In fact, I bet he’s goons could pull it off. I just don’t see any evidence to make that seem more likely than “it was just some kid, and the secret service was slacking that day”.

                  Your conclusion is shit.

                  You just want to believe in whatever you think feels best, instead of what is most likely.

      No, I’m just saying something is fishy. I wouldn’t be surprised to find that he cut his own ear.
