i think people really underestimate the disarray into which this assassination attempt on trump just threw the democratic party.
their messaging and activity has been relentlessly anti-donald on a personal level calling him a fascist, a dictator, and the “end of america.”
it’s their only real unifier at this point. absent “orange man bad” just what is the glue for this fractious and internally clamorous bunch? not much. their party is on the brink of internal civil war over joe’s brainpan whimsicality as it is.
so they have been all in on “trumpian terror tales” as core message.
they did everyhting but overtly declare him a “clear and present danger.”
“Donald Trump and the MAGA Republicans represent an extremism that threatens the very foundations of our country.”
that’s a helluva soundbite from a sitting president.
it’s been unlike anything i have ever seen in america in terms of both stridence and consistency. they have thrown everything including the kitchen sink, silverware, and plumbing pipes at this guy and have whipped up their base into a level of jingoistic hate that seems to defy and deny all logic.
and it has not slowed down.
it was always a much worse look that team donkey realized to go this negative and aggressive. they were already losing the center over it.
the spectacle of the guy who is refusing to step down despite clear mental issues and being mired in an entire family of bribe takers and influence sellers who have been running show trials of political opponents accusing the other of acting the dictator is pretty well and truly over the line.
and this newfound trope of “he’ll take out his opponents” well, i mean, this one aged like a sardine i once lost down behind the backseat of a chevy.
pretty rancid for just 10 days old.
it’s all “gone pete tong” for the dem message machine.
trump’s conviction backfired bigly on them and seems to have solidified support by helping more people see just how outlandish and rigged the system is as biden gets a pass on his classified docs issues because apparently he’s “too senile to know better” but somehow fine to run the country while trump faced prison for the presidential equivalent of a jaywalking ticket.
it all got a bit much to swallow and the ongoing rancor was already digging the dems a hole.
but this is a whole new day.
it all stops now.
it has to.
after this attack and his iconic and defiant response, they just cannot come at him like they have been. even the deep dems are realizing that this game is up. the internet has exploded with opprobrium and the folks saying “damn, how could they have missed” are getting dragged savagely.
you simply cannot do that.
you really cannot do any of this and never should have been able to and all the folks who have been so unbelievably far offside from civil discourse and basic decency have now been wrongfooted into eternal silence.
you simply cannot put this image

which, frankly, could not have been shot better on a hollywood soundstage. saying “make america aim better” (and some literally did) is just a terrible and irrefutable set of self-indictment.
the echo chambers where this was OK all just shattered.
the folks who stripped the secret service and made it a DEI domain are all on the run.
there’s another core donkey braying point down for the count. this was a massive miss by the team to have a shooter on the obvious roof vantage 125m from the speaker and miss him. the cops seemingly saw him but retreated. it was stunning incompetence. maybe a bit more focus on effectiveness as opposed to “intersectional inclusivity” might be warranted.
rumors are swirling about this being deliberate and sanctioned from the top, but i think we want to be very careful with that one without some sort of serious proof. stupid things happen all the time, especially with collaborations and coms issue with locals and feds and it’s not like you can just shoot any fool you see on a roof. imagine the press of “SS shoots boy with telescope.”
but the folks who were recently advocating for rule changes that could strip donnie of SS protection altogether “because he’s a felon,” well, that’s not a bill i’d want my name on just now. nor would i want to be one of the ones who kept saying no to trump’s apparently repeated requests for more protective staff (his detail was small and badly overworked).
so what have the donkeys got left?
attacking trump as a monster just became political suicide.
DEI is crumbling.
immigration is a massive loser for them.
so is the economy.
so what’s the pitch?
and who can carry water for you?
the media exploded into all kinds of hilarious self-own trying to downplay what happened.
hell, they tried to make it look like a fall to make him seem as frail as joe. this does not play well with the bloody face fist pose of a guy who just got shot and is having none of it.
the media must be in apoplexy. their partisan mode has become a self-immolating pratfall and the harder they try, the worse it gets for them.
it was meme entrapment. they got utterly destroyed and lost yet another substantial piece of what little credibility remains to them after the senility cover up spin sessions. they actually thought they were being slick and effective to “help the team.”

greg tops the list here as the most Trump hating commenter. greg displays his hate for Trump with each and every comment he types. What kind of dysfunctional mentality has to exist for one person to have consumed so much hate for one person. Who is to say that his rhetoric here would or could inspire copy cat acts. greg, like democrats are a dangerous group of cultist who worship the worst in human beings.
Worst of all, despite all he says, he hates Trump because he hates Trump. He has no sound basis for his hatred other than Trump is not and never will be a far leftist socialist liberal fascist.
Going forward it will be a joy to have discussions absent the insane rhetoric. Discussions will be focused on American pride and devotion to God, family and country.

Isn’t it odd? The left loves to control (or try to) language and argument. “Illegal immigrant” is “racist”. Opposing trans butchery is “homophobia”. Opposing porn in schools is “book banning”. Patriotism is “white supremacy”. And so on and on and on. But now, thanks to their insane reaction to lawfare failing, they are being denied their most potent and favorite rhetorical weapon: hate speech. While I view it as temporary at best, without their hateful, divisive, vilifying rhetoric, they basically have nothing else to say. And they did it to themselves.
Yup,
And now more than in the past few days they are truly stuck with biden. And that is the race we want we want to defeat biden like we did in 2020.
Trump/Vance vs biden/harris. Can’t wait to see the odds.
I can’t wait to see Vance debate cackling Harris.
She will need her salad dressing. Get the popcorn. She is not in JD’s league.
By picking Vance, Trump likely set the stage for a “golden Era” in the US for the next 12 years!
Hopefully Vance is instilled with the desire… the necessity to clean our government OUR of subversives and anti-American worms.
Unlike with bush 41, Reagan’s successor, all he had to do was keep the Regan revolution going. Instead, he was GOP establishment and he let the fire die out. Look at history since that time, chaos and a significant move to the left.
HW was a globalist and a new world order promoter.
Bush 43 was no different.
Adding to Trump’s wins today, judge Cannon threw out the documents case Jack Smith was trying to Lawfare Trump with.
