You mean the party known for lying and falsification didn't have an assassin plant meant to take the fall for the planned assassination attempt against the fascist presidential candidate in order to further bolster the support from his allies and voters?

There's no way this wasn't staged. And quite frankly, if the repubs are allowed to make up stuff, so is everyone else.

I mean I don't think you can shoot an just ear even as a controlled joke, much less from that distance...

You actually think Donald Trump agreed to put himself in the firing line of a gun with live ammo? People died bud. Think more critically.

it's a 20 year old dude, almost a kid, who has a documented historical record of being SHIT at aiming.

why the fuck would they get THAT person to botch an assassination? What if he tried to miss and accidentally hit instead?

Just like the 2020 election

I wouldn’t say 0% chance, but I agree that it is unhealthy to jump straight to conspiratorial thinking. Especially given just how little we know at this point.
