Opinion: The latest example of Trump’s seeming obsession with Nazism | CNN

As is so often the case with Trump, he tarnishes the object of his scorn with the failings that he himself could reasonably be accused of, Dean Obeidallah writes.

🤷‍♂️ I could post a few dozen more Trump/Hitler/nazi articles from CNN

It wasn't " shattered glass from a teleprompter" that cut Trump's ear. That's a very simplistic way to put it and it doesn't convey why the glass shattered.

Trump's ear was cut by shrapnel from a teleprompter that shattered because of a bullet that was meant for him.

Well, no shit. lol

 

[Marleydogg]

I'm evidently pretty pathetic, so pay no attention, but I am just typing what is being reported. Apparently shattered glass from the teleprompter is what cut his ear.

Cnn reported he fell.

Go away, leftist.

 

[DrH. Lecter]

If so. That sucks. Hoping this changes the GOPs "Thoughts n Prayers" stance on gun control.
Thoughts n Prayers.

You still think it's funny that 2 attendees are dead? Sick bastard.

 

[hmt5000]

Here's another reason why Trump is divisive. He can actually win sway with a lot of people who distrust him in this scenario.

Biden / Obama / leading democrats have denounced violence unequivocally.

What Trump should do is also denounce violence unequivocally. Will he? It's a two foot putt.

Trump voters aren't the ones committing crime and murder.... This is an easy putt for your side. Stop trying to pretend "both sides"... It's one side.

 

[RunninRichie]

If somebody in the audience was shot as well for firing at him and a guy on a roof was also taken, looks like a decoy type thing to disguise the real shooter. Just spitballing.

2 shooters most likely.

Sir, Im quite positive that Trump voters do commit crimes and murders. There's 350 god damn million people in this country... making any dumb generalization like that is going to be wrong

 

[RunninRichie]

It's both. Extremists are on both sides. Just facts.

Witness on CBS who carries guns is saying she didn't hear what sounded like a gunshot -- suggesting shooter MIGHT have used a silencer

Listen to it good grief I can see you never were never in military stayed in mama's basement.

Guys like you are disgusting little pukes. Done with you

 

[IkeCat]

Someone just tried to kill Trump. Wow.

What's that old saying? Play spew hate games...win spew hate prizes. trump, et al, worked hard for that prize!

Yeah, they just sacrificed a couple of people’s lives for a photo op. What morons.

 

[the nail at the foul line]

The grassy knoll.

You can watch the video and hear the shots.

wtf are you talking about?

Im just typing what an eye-witness said. Do you think that's politically motivated?

Also, I'd bet the shooter probably was using a silencer. Im just relaying info because it's interesting Einstein. Witness said she would've bet the gun was a ".22 because it didn't make a loud sound. The sound was from falling equipment."

 

[Bill Cosby]

Biden campaign knows what they did

 

[hmt5000]

Then if this is the case, you can't say it's the media making Trump divisive.

If the man wants to lead, act like a leader.

Trump isn't the one dividing. The media coverage and lies and distortions are what is dividing. The "good people on both sides" hoax finally got admitted to by Snopes just 5 years later. MSM can't lie about someone constantly then blame the guy the lied about.

 

[HymanKaplan]

As I suspected, they're saying the shooter had a rifle, and was firing from an elevated position from outside the rally.

 

[augustaky1]

They may just leave Biden in, this might be too much for any dem to overcome in 24.

Gear up for 28 if I'm the dems.

That was my thought. But I am usually wrong.

I didn't even mention "good people on both sides". Why are we inserting that? Half the reason Trump is popular is because he is divisive and controversial. You can't have it both ways.

 

[screwduke1]

My God.

Those are not made of glass that shards. Total spin attempt. by the left to say he didn't get shit. Tempered glass does not do that.

Nice to see we've gotten into 'EVERYBODY' on the other side is evil. This country's lost.

 

[HeismaNole]

I’m not going to tell you which Democrat member of my family I just had this exchange with

I show the video of the BBC interview where the guy is saying he was telling the cops about a guy on the roof “I don’t believe that.”

I show the video of the dead shooter on the roof.

“How do we know this isn’t some publicity stunt?”

What? You think the dead guy on the roof is on a publicity stunt?

“How do we know he’s dead?”

The AP and the video I just showed you.

“I’m just saying we’re relying on other people for info. We weren’t there.”

WOW!

 

[UKUGA]

He's already made the address. Unequivocally denounced violence

And refused to call it an assassination attempt

After stoking the flames of hate for all these years, and setting the phony Russian collusion narrative against Trump into motion before he left office, it takes a lot of gall to now come out with that garbage statement. Fvck him.

 

[hmt5000]

Yes, 100%. I believe most leaders and former Presidents in American history would unequivocally denounce retribution and further political violence. Trump could actually win good-will by doings this. Is he an American President or a MAGA President. Golden question.

Should he do this while still at the hospital? Before the man killed is buried? Or maybe before the next leftist attack on a republican? When should Trump ask his supporters not to commit violence against dems for the very first time?

 

[HymanKaplan]

If that is true, it's amazing that they were able to drop the shooter within seconds.

 

[KAB Cats]

Not necessarily. I think he should though in his next major address.

I think that is what is best for America.

 

[screwduke1]

They're gonna probably indict Trump for not dying.

 

[Lost In FL]

Remember when a leftist also was on their way to kill Kavanaugh?

These are unhinged people.

I've said a couple of times ... modern day liberalism is a mental disorder.

You see that in spades on here every day.

SLOWLY for YOU.....You're an idiot hopefully you've moved out of mama's basement.

Silencer dear God you moron again you're no ex-military guy, get back to watching Netfix movies

I heard the shots dipshit

WOW!

A friend of mine has a friend who took a photo of the guy on the roof.

I’m sure they won’t believe that either.

 

[mdlUK.1]

Pundits on both sides are divisive, but Trump is easily the most divisive President in my lifetime.

Also, wtf are you talking about blaming the victim? I never once justified Trump being shot at. What I am disagreeing with is the laughable notion that it's the media making Trump divisive. Trump is divisive. He did that. Like, that's his schtick.

Obummer says hello

 

[RunninRichie]

If that is true, it's amazing that they were able to drop the shooter within seconds.

They had tech 30 years ago. To pinpoint where a bullet was coming from near the president. I can only imagine what they have now.

 

[ukalum1988]

Everybody ignore Nails

I’ll ignore you instead.

Yeah. You typed that a woman that 'carries' guns made that claim.

Now you're doubling down on it?

Holy schit, you are truly dumb.

Amd off to ignore you go, leftist. Bye.

 

[HeismaNole]

If that is true, it's amazing that they were able to drop the shooter within seconds.

But somehow didn’t see him crawling up there.

 

[55wildcat]

Who did not see this coming??

 

[HymanKaplan]

They're gonna probably indict Trump for not dying.

I said earlier, he'll be indicted for the death of the spectator. Probably manslaughter 2.

 

[KAB Cats]

Silencer dear God you moron again you're no ex-military guy, get back to watching Netfix movies

You're ****ing right Im not ex-military. Im not using an assasination attempt as a way to flex my knowledge of guns. I don't give a **** about guns. Im typing what is being reported by eye-witnesses. I can't help if that triggers you for some random ****ing reason, Percy.
