Is it me or does this "assassination" footage look very weird?

They are incredibly slow and clunky getting him off that stage. No hurry at all. And he looks like he’s sure he’s not in danger. It’s just plain weird. I don’t know what to think.

Maybe it’s just fantastic to see how very inefficient supposedly trained pros can be. And how people who are shocked don’t respond and run or get down. And how he’s so caught up in his own greatness he puts himself at risk so he’ll be seen as heroic. All of that’s completely possible, and completely weird.

But also that person who repeatedly yelled, “We love you, we love you, president trump.”

Also the cult’s behavior. This is just not normal—to stand there chanting USA.

As mentioned already, it’s only natural, at least in America, to assume this is a mass shooting. Duck, hide, run, would be normal.

You have a second shooter, one who is a marksman.

To tell the truth, I've never believed he was nicked by a bullet. It was either a chip of cement, or similar. Trump just got lucky that there was blood.

What the hell was he babbling about? Sounded rehearsed to me. What are we supposed to fight? G.O.P. pedophiles?

I mean, the kid who took the shot was a republicon.

Does the GOP Felon-in-chief want us to fight against republicon pedos and gun humpers?

More than likely, he was knicked from a wood splinter, or a kernel from some MAGA's box of popcorn.
