I didn’t know he played golf! /s
Well he does, and some people say he is really a genius player. Maybe the best one ever.
Definite signs of the supreme leader!
Okay, this one screams “Absolute Bullshit” unless they have someone in custody. The campaign released this statement without anyone knowing anything or hearing about it first, like someone trying to get some attention. It sure seems like an opportune time to try and fake this shit. Trump Slump hit after the debate because he’s just a gigantic jackass, and they want to dredge up the sentiment from the original shooting and curry favor with voters, but let’s wait and see I guess.
You don’t think there can be an irresponsible gun owner in Florida?
No, otherwise they would have checks, right?
Worth noting the person in custody did not fire any shots. The shots were fired by the Secret Service.
It’s admittedly a touch tin foil hatty, but I wouldn’t be completely shocked if this ends up being some elaborate hoax to distract from the Roberts SCOTUS memo leak. “Smoke screen the crazy with more crazy” was one of the Trump admin’s go-to strategies, after all.
On a day when JD Vance effectively admitted to another fabrication, as well.
This not only screams BS but makes me question other similar events which seemed to have perfect timing and a nice photo op.
Trump popped a juicy fart and blamed it on Democrat assassins
How can the NRA justify this?
Darn.
Banana, banana, banana, banana, terracotta Banana terracotta, terracotta pie Banana, banana, banana, banana, terracotta Banana terracotta, terracotta pie
Bummer
Gunshots within earshot?
Rimshot
They’ll refuse to elaborate, and in a few days someone will find out Trump was at a shooting alley, and they took the opportunity to publish this “technically true” statement to grab attention.
lol, 10 bucks says he heard a car backfire and freaked out.
I don’t care do you?
Lmfao no but really this seems kind of sad almost. Igs Florida there are gunshots it’s called living in Florida.
Keep Trump safe from gun violence. Vote for Harris Walz and a democratic Congress to get common sense gun regulations in place.
Just get used to the facts of life, okay? No need for breathless reporting, gunshots in the vicinity of Trump should be considered an everyday thing now.
It’ll turn out to be another registered Republican with mental health issues who should never have been able to get a hold of a gun.
Which will make it the fault of the Democrats, of course.
Well of course it is. The democrats clearly haven’t done enough to stop them from hurting their own party!
We have a little more information now and it is interesting:
The article starts with:
The Hawaii man suspected in former President Donald Trump’s assassination attempt on Sunday is a long-time Democrat, donating exclusively to the party’s candidates 19 times since 2019, records show.
Then later on it mentions:
Routh, 58, claimed in other social media posts that he supported Donald Trump in his first presidential campaign in 2016 — but later became disillusioned after his chosen candidate won office.
Yeah, the guy appears to have been a Republican up until near the end of Trump’s term, partially supported him into 2020 (while donating to ActBlue), and then ended up completely disillusioned.
He also appears to be more than a little dangerous. In 2002, he was arrested and convicted of carrying a fully automatic machine gun. The guy should never have been able to get another gun.
To make it weirder, read the interview and texts from the guy’s son. He was like "I don’t think he’s ever owned a gun, he’s not violent, he’s only ever had parking tickets " Meanwhile, his father clearly owned a gun, has and is violent, and was literally charged for barricading himself in an office with a machine gun before, which somehow his son (who is in like his mid 30s) apparently didn’t know about?
And then the son texts the reporter later basically sounding like he’s trying to justify what his dad did, because politics is like what Southpark said… wowzy.
I mean he was on a Florida golf course
Don’t they have gun ranges on every other block?
Needs more jpeg
