This is a fast moving story but it appears a shooter attempted to assassinate Donald Trump this afternoon. Images from the immediate aftermath show the Teflon Don, bleeding but defiant, fist in the air. Incredibly powerful.
Just two weeks ago, I argued that I did not think the regime would have the balls to try and assassinate Trump in the aftermath of Biden’s implosion. It appears I was wrong:
Biden could try and have Trump assassinated. Maybe get one of the intelligence agencies to do it? But, again, the same crisis of legitimacy remains. Biden is obviously unfit for office and is no position to exert meaningful control over the regime. Which gay bureaucrat would be willing to order Trump’s killing on a decrepit Biden’s behalf? Who will pull the trigger? There are only so many mentally ill psychopaths on the CIA’s MK Ultra rolls. Will liberals put the fate of “Our Sacred Democracy” into the hands of one of these clowns, in hopes they will be able to successfully eliminate Trump? I doubt it.
The time to kill Trump was in the summer of 2020, when the Left’s communist thugs were on the verge of taking over DC. That moment passed and now the regime is stuck praying that Trump will have some kind of health episode and die—an outcome that, in light of Trump’s preternatural vitality, seems unlikely.
My guess is that we will learn that the shooter was “mentally disturbed” and “known to law enforcement.”My gut instinct tells me that this is not a one-off lone wolf shooter. We know why this assassination attempt happened now. Getting through security at a Trump event is not easy… unless the shooter had help.
At the least, this event shows that this election is all or nothing. The enemies of liberty and peace are quite literally gunning for Trump. We must stand tall, pray for peace, and prepare for war.
That photo might secure his election. The heroic bloodied warrior, defiant fist in air, framed under an American flag. Compositionally it looks perfect.
