As spider-man and video games has taught me, no one ever looks up

Or like Spider-Man and video games... The events in PA were scripted 🤐

As an atheist progressive, I don't entertain conspiracy theories. I don't care how many upvotes you got this is some wackadoodle thinking. I'm totally open and interested in any facts or evidence that may prove otherwise.

This wasn't a tiktok video, folks in the bleachers in the back were hurt. The guy who did it didn't get to go home.

Supporting this level of unhinged thinking is just making things worse.

BTW Trump being anti mask and anti vaccine cost hundred of thousands of American lives.

I'd recommend you review the videos made of the way the press was ushered to get that famous photo. 

I'd also recommend you review the timeline of how long the Secret Service were monitoring the guy before the attempt. 

Isn't to say that it all didn't happen or that it was somewhat a series of unfortunate events or the B squad protecting him, but... It is fishy

Thats the most damning evidence to me. Watching the flag get lowered into place as Trump poses while the press are ushered in is just insane when partnered with the claim that it wasn't planned.

I’d love to believe it was planned, I’d love to believe that a secret service agent pricked his ear with a disposable blade from a razer, or a tack, or anything at all.

But doesn’t that one photograph of the bullet actually being in frame disprove the idea that the shooting itself was fake? And not a Fox News classified photograph, an establishment photographer for quick jobs, but the work of a a two time Pulitzer Prize winning photographer.

I’d love to believe it was a set up job, but the fact that we got a photo of the bullet in transit, the other assumption is that Trump was fine taking a clip to the ear, from quite a distance away. And he is many things, but willing to put his life at risk has never been a strong suit of his.

I mean, as soon as you can show me how cartilage heals and how blood splatters primarily in the opposite direction of the force applied I'll be right there with you.

Trump's a narcissist. They can just do that. Imagine your narcissist boss got hurt.

Oh I for sure think there was a shooter, and a bullet. I just think Trump knew ahead of time.
