DP here, and while I could be convinced it was staged, it is a leap. However, you make some stretches:

[quote]The secret service personnel were shamefully disorganized and incompetent. Which is about what we should expect from them, since the other incidents in the past that have provided insights into poor judgment and incompetence and bad behavior on the part of the secret service. So this is true to form.  However, they also knew the shooter had been taken out by their own counter sniper team at that point. But they couldn’t have know there might’ve been another sniper, waiting to engage after the initial chaos. Again - incompetence. [/quote]

How would SS informed them in less than 1 min? He fired the shot. Totally implausible. Yes, they are disorganized, but not a single one is trying to push Trump down. If you’re in danger, their own instinct would be to duck! They also let him put his shoe on. It could be gross  negligence or complicity.

[quote]I think Trump doesn’t discuss it much because for him, it was a moment where he almost died, and he knows it, and his ego, his personality, his everything, couldn’t have stopped it. For him, it’s too uncomfortable to think about much. It reminds him that he’s not in total control of everything, and it makes him feel vulnerable. He doesn’t like that. [/quote]

You can’t be serious. There’s merch of him getting shot and he has a photo in the White House. Please. LMAO.

[quote]Investigation into shooter? Where is the media that should’ve been doing this for the last year? They’re AWOL. I cannot explain why the NYT or WaPo haven’t been doing a deep dive into every person who knew this guy. We knew more about a plumber from Ohio named Joe, 12 hours after he asked Obama an embarrassing question at a campaign event, than we know a year later about a guy who shot Trump. That’s journalistic malpractice.[/quote]

WaPo and NYT are friends of MAGA. This has been addressed repeatedly on DCUM. It’s clear why they aren’t reporting on the shooter.

[quote]The lack of panic from attendees? They’re all paralyzed/confused by the shock of what’s happening. They’re frozen. Pretty normal reaction for people, actually. A few understand what’s happening, and they’re probably trying not to panic so they don’t accidentally get shot by secret service. Which is pretty sensible on their part, given the secret service. Plus, I’m sure quite a few people in the crowd also figured something like this would happen sooner or later, and here it is. [/quote]

Totally false. We were just reminiscing about being at the Nats game were shot outside the stadium. People fell to the ground, covered family members, panic ensued. Absolutely zero people were frozen.
