Oh? So Sirhan Sirhan was a conservative Republican? Good to know...

"Thomas Matthew Crooks, the 20-year-old gunman who shot and injured former President Donald Trump at a Pennsylvania rally, briefly appeared in an advertisement for BlackRock Inc., the company said on Sunday."
This occurred in 2022. He was in background & not paid.

I wonder what GOP rhetoric led him to kill people in his attempt to assassinate the GOP candidate?
And the comparisons they have to dig up are laughable. We could assemble a multi-episode mini-series of vile and disgusting clips and statements by libs in regards to Trump.
I am not enamored with either Gov as a VP pick....I don't see them moving the needle much (although that really doesn't matter much for the VP pick) and I believe they are both too important in their current roles, especially Youngkin.
Vance...I can get on board with as I believe he helps w/ the younger vote. However....does this hurt his Ohio Senate seat when up for grabs. Ryan may take it back against another opponent.
I would love Vivek or Gabbard as two non-office holders but longshots, imo.

Burgum is now out.
It's Vance, Younkin or a shocker like Stefanik or Haley.
Good because Burgum needs to be his energy Sec.

Isn't there a photo actually showing the bullet ? Sure didn't look luke a piece of glass.
I don’t even understand why there is any speculation. There is a photo (that I believe has been corroborated as legitimate) that actually caught the bullet on frame whizzing past Trump’s head as he begins to reach for his ear.
Haley would be the biggest splash and make the moderates most happy. Vance is best choice though

Not personally speculating here, it's early in the process. This is definitely going to be a wild one though.
Trump Rally Gunman Was ‘Definitely Conservative,’ Classmate Recalls
“It makes me wonder why he would carry out an assassination attempt on the conservative candidate.”

Actually that's funny you bring that up now that we're thinking about assassinations.
Jfk got killed by a commie
RFK by a PLO lunatic
Your friends!
Haley would not shock me. They said he ripped up his speech after the shooting and is now giving one based on Unity. She's now suddely gonna be there.. I could see him giving an example on how united he and Nikki and the RNC are now. Doubt it but her chances are on the board now.

I'm fine, I don't think I've posted here since the Palestinian attack on Israel in October, that p!ssed me off enough to spout off. Took an attempt on Trump's life to get my blood boiling enough to post again.
Otherwise, work has been hopelessly demanding, and it just feels like we are all shouting at clouds on here sometimes.
...but give me a chance to hurl some crude and baseless personal insults, and dammit, you know I'm here for that!
WTF? Are you serious? He was a terrorist PALESTINIAN who was killing him because of his support for Israel. WOW.
Rumors on Twitter now he’s meeting with RFK. Who knows.
RFK has a few pros. A ton of cons.
That said, if it’s Trump/RFK no democrat ticket can beat that in an actual election. Will be interesting to see if they burn the preprinted ballots, or drag Biden’s barely mobile body to the finish line and still complete the steal.
If Trump were to announce RFK today, I would imagine everyone would start just acting like they’re in office. They might just burn down the White House and regulatory agency offices rather than taking the time to destroy all the evidence of their crimes.
My point exactly. These things are much more complicated than just red team vs blue team.
Duh. That's my point. Do you think that's a conservative Republican? He was a dyed-in-the-wool self-describing communist.
I would take Stefanik for NY or Haley for women and the rest of the "Rino" vote. Keep her close but do not trust her.
It is good to hear that you are well.
I can't leave, someone has to keep @TheFrontRunner on the straight and narrow.
@55wildcat and I have the watch.
On the one hand, I want to believe the classmates stories about the shooter and that he hasn’t change since he was that quirky debating lone conservative.
On the other hand, he tried to blow Trump’s head off on live TV which is exactly what democrats and their media messengers have been pushing for.
Hmmmm.

I still like Vivek.
I wonder if he is not in line for White House Chief of Staff? Provided a win of course.

Who are actual leftists?
The young turks? Lol How's that union going for Cenk?
Sport coat Sammy aka Kyle Kulinski the guy that created a dark money pac and put it in Knoxville?
Dave pakman- who's basically Rachel Maddow and will sell out for ads
Oh, chapo that's gotta be it.
Sirhan Sirhan would be a registered Democrat who spends time on the staff of the Squad and organizing protesting at College Campi. From the River to the Sea a true Democrat he be.
See you don't even know. Meanwhile, on the flip side, I'm the one telling the thread about the rightwing personalities like Patrick Bet-David too.
You can be left of older Democrats. New ones not so much.
Yeah, definitely not a conservative Republican. Who shot RFK. Point proven. All the sane people got it in my first post, sorry it took you this long.
Is that going to happen before or after he packs all the courts and eliminates the EC, Karl?
I REALLY REALLY REALLY want to see a Vivek/Kamala debate.
Trump Truthing about RFK protection. RFK X’ing(?) that talking about unity.
Strange…
With all this talk of unity, if Trump picked a democrat for the ultimate unity pick, then they said they were running to unite the country against the establishment, they could not be beaten*.
Edit: in a free and fair election. Obviously we still have the mail in vote fraud and potential assassinations.
