I wasn't going to comment, but then I saw the comments. Damn. Trump's a ticking time bomb. The assassination attempt was a fake. Such absurdities.

The assassination attempt could not have been staged, since the target was actually hit in the head by a bullet. It could, however, have been arranged by the Secret Service and Occam's Razor certainly points in that direction.

Trump's a ticking time bomb? He was president for 4 years and the world is in a FAR more dangerous place now than it ever was then. We lived through Trump. There is absolutely no rational reason to fear that a second term for him would be any worse than the first, or could possibly be any worse than the Biden Admin disaster we're living through right now.

As for Americans forgetting about the assassination attempt, most of us haven't. The media just calls it a "shooting" or won't talk about it at all, because they are as bought and paid for as our politicians are. The Democults believe that tripe, but they are cultists and trying to convince them otherwise is a waste of time.

Great article! You effectively show how our reactions to events reveal more about us than the events themselves. The piece brilliantly illustrates the dangers of demonization and the desensitizing effects of prolonged indoctrination. It's alarming how the 'ends justify the means' mentality can transform normally peaceful individuals into advocates of violence.

The blind hatred many Americans have for Trump is mirrored by the disdain for European leaders who resist the EU's push for more power and control. Rather than offering better ideas or policies, everything is done to tear down opponents. This, to me, is the greatest weakness of those who justify violence to silence their 'enemies.' If you truly believe your opponents are harmful to your country, why not propose something better instead?
