Looking more like a conspiracy…

‘But but but..the roof was too steep’ according to the SS director.

Eh, I don't think it's a conspiracy, I think it's just a collection of gross incompetence. Heck, even trying to get a cop up to the roof to confront the shooter, it was basically a guy giving a boost to the other guy and he ended up hanging from the roof. Secret Service should get most of the blame as it's literally their job to prevent this stuff. I think I saw too that it was at least 20 seconds from the first shot before they killed the shooter - that's an incredibly long amount of time.

Maybe the local cops should have used the shooters ladder to get up on that roof, or better yet just position an armed good guy up their … we we got was the shooter intimidating the cops when it should of been the other way around…

Ultimately it would have been better to take this guy alive but because they waited until he started shooting they had no other choice but to “neutralize” him. Dead guys tell no tales.

If the secret service will answer the tough questions the conspiracy rumors could go away, but the way things are going this will be JFK like conspiracy theories where we will never get the truth

Yep. Tons of conspiracies as usual including why Trump hasn’t released the medical report and why he hasn’t called the wife of the guy who was killed like Biden did?

As Ganny said, it’s likely just incompetence.

Reports that I saw said Trump did call the wife, he always does.

The widow didn’t want to take Joe Biden’s call and I don’t blame her a bit

Is the flag upside down? If yes, why?

It's not, just the angle of the photo. That was that flag hanging from two cranes. It was facing downward, but in the correct position for a flag flown that way.

From the Post, but backs up CH - Trump's call was taken, Biden's wasn't.

I've heard the medical report thing and I was wondering why folks need it. It looked pretty obvious that something hit Trump's ear and caused all that bleeding. Is that in doubt?

Is the flag upside down? If yes, why?

It should be upside down, (that flag isn't) our country is in distress and people like you are supporting and applauding it.

Even if he wasn't hit, nothing changes. They tried to kill a US president

To quote the late Dean Wormer, "Fat, drunk and stupid is no way to go through life, son".

Our country is not in distress. Unlike many, I believe in our country and have faith in it's ability to withstand the extremism from the right and the left.

You wouldn't recognize distress if a president was almost assassinated right in front of you.

[UNI88]

You wouldn't recognize distress if a former president was almost assassinated right in front of you.

Sure Karen. Your distress is not my or the country's distress.

And I'm guessing your distress is less about a former president and/or current presidential candidate being shot at then it is about party and your feelings about the individual. I would guess that you'd be much less distressed if biden had been shot at.

You can return to running around crying that the sky is falling now.

And none of this shit should be acceptable by any person regardless of party. Unnecessary covid deaths, Floyd riots, J6 (they wanted to kill a VP then didn’t they?), assassination attempts.

We must be better. All of us. And I’m still optimistic we will.

I don't like Trump so quit acting like this is a partisan thing. Absolutely not. Yes I would be just as upset if the right had schemed to kill Biden but we all know they don't do that, its a uniquely Democrat thing to kill republican presidents.

I am going to vote for Trump this time because he's the best guy to do the job, All his slimy personal stuff aside, I'm not hiring him do be salt of the earth I'm doing it wo get work done. Your hate for him is interesting

Don't be obtuse. Why would a Democrat attempt to kill a Democratic president (or vice versa)?

It's not like this is a regular occurrence or that Democrats or anyone are frequently taking shots at Republican presidents, past presidents or presidential candidates. There have been 3 presidents/former presidents killed/injured in the last 60+ years (JFK Jr, Reagan and trump). This is shocking and discouraging because it is infrequent.

Have they proven that Cooks was a Democrat? I didn't think they'd determined motive yet. Jumping to conclusions isn't good either.

For someone who doesn't like trump you sure spend a lot of time responding to posts that mock/criticize him.

I think he's a narcissistic sociopath and that makes him to be a threat to the country.

[Bobcat]

Typical violence supporter response. Its gross by the way

How is it a "typical violence supporter response"?

How is it "gross"?

Hey man don't get angry. I'm not a professional counselor,

Its pretty apparent to the 5 people that read this site that you have to dominate and control narrative. Its sick and gross. Your whataboutism is showing with every deflection

Ganny, as the most unbiased poster active on CS, do you mind if I ask you:
- is my post a "typical violence supporter response"?
- is it gross?

If yes to either, could you explain how? It will make me a better poster. TYIA!

Nobody likes Trump…yet…

Would you vote for a different Democrat with a solid resume over Trump?

Your hatred of reasonable centrists like ‘88 who don’t care for Trump is sick and gross.

Nah, you're good. Bob's kinda an angry poster. I don't see how you're supporting violence and "gross" is just a really odd charge to throw out there for most posts on this site.

Definitely not Harris she is the single biggest trainwreck in politics in the last few decades she makes that goofy republican Santos look sane.
Not Newsome he is more slimy than Trump
Not Whitmer this shouldn't be another DEI hire. She is not smart enough and has shown she has her interests in mind and nobody elses.
I don't know enough about the Gov they keep mentioning. For starters his name.
Maybe in 2028

I really have no other choice than Trump. I want my 401k to go back up and possibly have our plant reopened so the economy can pick back up again instead of continue on the downward spiral the last 4 years

Oops! OMG I hadn’t seen it reported. Should have been reading the Post! I’m not sure I’ll recover from this.
