Yes, there were over-the-top emotions & speculation, but it's become more reasonable since the middle of yesterday to the extend this thread is ever reasonable.

Leaving a building in the direct line of site to the stage up to local law enforcement is negligence of the first degree by the SS.
Building Trump shooter used to fire shots at president was responsibility of local police: source
A federal law enforcement source says the building where Thomas Matthew Crooks opened fire on former President Trump was the responsibility of local law enforcement.www.foxnews.com
He turned his head facing line of fire so bullet hit top of right ear. If he was facing straight in to the crowd it would’ve penetrated posterior aspect of his head.
The head turn saved his life.
Anyone can feel free correct me if I’m wrong here.
I’m not entirely sold on Vance. Was hoping it’d be a wildcard from outside the political world.
No sense in wasting time handicapping the race, so I can’t really say for sure what I think about any of the candidates. Once Trump picks the person I’ll decide if I think it moves Trump towards a more fiscally conservative anti-unnecessary war position, or towards the bloated government all-war-is-good-war position of the establishment.
Agreed. I've seen some speculation about Youngkin being Trump's VP pick. I respect Youngkin but he's not a good ideological fit with Trump. It would be similar to Reagan having GHWB as his VP. It seemed OK at the time, but ultimately didn't end well for the conservative movement.
I would be fine with either Vance or Burgum. Please no Scott or Rubio.
I think if you stayed short, 1-5 years, you did much better than that. I mean 1 yr CD's have been 5% or so.
Do the democrats still use “ultra MAGA” as a slur, or did that fall so hilariously flat they stopped doing it?
The images from this weekend are without a doubt ULTRA MAGA!!1!1!

How many N words will Stan the caddy drop if the case makes it there?
Turley is one of the few intellectually honest liberals still out there. I don't always agree with him, but I respect him enough to consider what he has to say.
What I read is SS is broken up into tiers. Tier 1 is the ppl near the stage, and like tier 4 are the snipers. The 3rd is usually made up of local law enforcement and security. The snipers didn't see the guy bc they have areas that they have surveillance on. In other words tier 4 watches anything past 150 yards or whatever and focuses soley on that, where 3 watches inside that perimeter. So the local guys missed it.
Thanks for the post with its clarifications to Trump's statements.
The Trump campaign and surrogates will try to intimidate Biden supporters from going after the former President politically. Do not let up. Trump is a threat to democracy and he must be stopped. Every rational person knows that means politically. DO NOT let them twist your words and intimidate you. Trump must be beaten at the ballot box.'
I'm pretty sure you mean battle box.
I’m lukewarm to Vance. But if that guy ever ends up becoming POTUS…., well, only in America.
OK, I've now seen the photo of the arrangement/layout from post #668778 & now get it. Thanks.
In the context that any time a woman has a "man's" job, they absolutely don't like it. I'm just saying it's a stay away if I'm Trump. His base already agrees.
I am lukewarm on Trump at best. You aren't hurting my feelings. The alternative though.
The real fun will be when the courts overturn that bullshit conviction...
Of all the POS's out there, Olbermann is truly the king.
Gee thanks Captain Redundant. Any more super gems you'd like to drop on us? "Proven speculation" is an oxymoron, moron.
The misery of Rob Reiner and Keith Olbermann brings me unmitigated joy! 😀😀😀😀😀😀😀😀😀
I voted for Vance. Has turned out (in a very short period of time) a good Senator. Just as importantly he has shown the ability to express his/our views in a clear and concise manner....and takes no 'guff' from Dem/lib reporters.
My main concern is if Vance is the VP....who will DeWine pick as his replacement. DeWine is a political slime ball IMO.

Your Tin foil hat is out of alignment again. Try pointing it towards Jupiter.
Not many hoaxes end in prison time.

Here’s the official story so far: a random 20 year old acting completely alone walked within 150 yards of a presidential campaign rally with a rifle, climbed onto a rooftop in full view of Secret Service snipers, set up his shot and fired without anyone intervening and with no help from anyone.
This 20 year old is also so politically radical as to attempt an assassination and yet not radical enough to have ever posted any political writings or commentary on any social media site ever in his life. He also wrote no manifesto and left behind no indication about why he did it. His last and only political act, before attempting to kill the Republican candidate, was to register as a Republican.
You must believe this and ask no questions about it or else you are a conspiracy theorist. And one thing we know about assassination attempts is that there’s never any conspiring involved.

Have any of our resident Libs given their impressions on this particular comment from Biden? Because we know if Trump had even dared utter such a thing, the media would be in a frenzy for weeks. remember the insane frenzy when they took Trump's use of the word "bloodbath" wildly out of context? and still to this day bring that BS up?
Not saying you're wrong at all, but I thought I heard about the local cop who confronted the shooter before the attack, only to retreat like a coward when the shooter turned on him..... Maybe that anecdotal part of this whole timeline has been debunked?
Gingrich saying.....'I could barely stand watching Biden's speech last night because the whole thing was a lie'
You go Newt! Met him a few times while I lived in Georgia. Smart man and very nice.

Yes, I worry every house or senate seat could be crucial.
Looks like a longhorn.Picture of the flags behind the stage shortly after Trump was shot.
Some people saying that it looks like an angel looking over Trump.
Read this morning that the cop was standing on another cop's shoulder to climb up to the roof since there was no ladder there. When the kid turned and pointed the rifle...the cop (of course) reacted/ducked/etc and when he did either he fell or the cop he was standing on fell.
