on Trump's life was legit or orchestrated.

WHOA! That is a hellspawn for them!

[Meadowoak]

33. He voted for Trump in 16 and 20, he voted for Nikki Haley ley

In the primary. He's not a Democrat.

[LeftInTX]

41. He's donated to ActBlue and looks like he voted in the Democratic primary this year.

Routh, 58, has an extensive criminal history in North Carolina that includes convictions between 2002 and 2010 of possession of weapons of mass destruction, carrying a concealed gun, hit and run, possession of stolen goods and resisting law enforcement, among other charges.

Routh has a second address in Hawaii.

But he’s registered to vote in North Carolina as an unaffiliated voter.

In North Carolina, unaffiliated voters can choose which primary they want to vote in. Routh chose Democrats when he voted this spring. Routh has also made small donations through ActBlue throughout the 2024 election cycle. ActBlue is an online platform used by Democrats for fundraising.

The guys is nuts, nuts, nuts. Thinks he's CIA or something.

[LauraInLA]

146. He also made posts supporting Ramaswamy and Haley before they dropped out, didn't he? I'd say he's more a

NeverTrumper than a Dem, just looking for anyone who could beat Trump.

[BigDemVoter]

58. Good. . .

They would never let it go if it happened to be a Democrat. . .

[et tu]

43. nah! very much a rw extremist

c'mon do your research m

125. Democrats don't vote for Trump and Nikki Haley.

Republicans will try to spin it, and their stupid base will swallow their bullshit.

Hey did ya hear trump went golfing again today? That must have been nice.

[et tu]

112. he loves to golf

bless his heart~

[Think. Again.]

113. It keeps him fit! (for his age)

[et tu]

114. needs much more golf

quit spiking the coffee lol now i'm searching for mine~

[ProfessorGAC]

135. Untrue

He loves to cheat at golf.
If he loved the game, he'd work on improving. He just cheats more now that he's older.

[TheProle]

6. If it's legit, it should be cause for grave concern, not because it's Trump

But because of what it says about our political climate.

[Think. Again.]

9. We already know from experience that magats shoot at people....

...I don't know yet if this guy was a magat, but apparently shooting at trump is just part of this election cycle.

[TheProle]

23. It is until it isn't

[wnylib]

88. But why? Why would two of his followers decide to

take shots at him? What is TSF saying or doing that's got RWers riled up enough to try to shoot him?

[Think. Again.]

97. Sometimes even magats have a moment of clarity.

[ShazzieB]

142. Hard agree!

[prodigitalson]

8. My first thought was MTG is shooting at Loomer

[Think. Again.]

11. Nope, she's busy with some pipes and timers and stuff.

[HARMONYJADE]

63. Thanks

That made me laugh out loud. Thanks, I needed that.

[Bird Lady]

82. I don't think she is smart enough to blow her nose

much less build what I think all that stuff is for.

[rampartd]

123. she didn';t build the pipe bombs,

she was just too stupid to arm the timers.

[Wounded Bear]

10. Kinda care in a purely academic sense...

but mostly I'm meh.

Where I am not is on the conspiracy theory bus. Not planning to board any time soon, if ever.

[vishnura]

15. Trump

Boo hoo!

[orleans]

16. your post implies

you won't be responding to his campaign's two emails and send him some money

[Demsrule86]

17. Fuck Trump...he likely did it himself.

[dchill]

69. Fool me once ...

Won't get fooled again!

[Silent Type]

18. Like last time, this sounds real. Probably best not to make light of it.

[wnylib]

91. Twice in such a short period? We know that

Last edited Mon Sep 16, 2024, 09:38 AM - Edit history (1)

the first guy was a RWer. This one might be, too, or a former Trump supporter. What would make two different followers angry enough to want to shoot him?

It's convenient that a neighbor was on hand to get a photo shot of the guy and his car.

As far as I can see, it could be fake or real. Trump is capable of setting something up for his own purposes, i.e. draw attention away from events in the current news cycle. Or get his followers riled up. Condition people to expect violence against him in this campaign to justify Trump calling upon his people to be armed and ready to defend him.

Not saying that it was fake, just that he's capable of doing something like that.

[LoisB]

19. I could not possibly care less - I just want him to drop into the dustbin of history.

[helpisontheway]

20. I don't care. Probably not true but whatever. Until they start caring about

the babies getting shot in schools then I don’t give a shit about them.

[debm55]

64. Agree

[Unwind Your Mind]

22. I'm more interested in the Roberts leak

And tsf does have a history of trying to steal the news cycle

[Different Drummer]

24. You could fit how much I care in this and have plenty of room left over.

[Mossfern]

25. I did try

but somehow I can't bring myself to care.
This is very unlike me.

[DinahMoeHum]

26. I don't care - do U??

[PufPuf23]

27. Trump is putting himself at risk by continuing to play golf. nt

28. I don't give a rats ass about this claimed attempt on tRump.

Let's move on...MSM is shoving it's down our throats but.. listening to football...Anything but MSM.

[brewens]

29. No fucks to give. Odds are it is republican policies that put the guy there. Just like last time. n/t

[0rganism]

30. legit vs. orchestrated doesn't really matter, as the narrative will be set to favor TSF per usual

By the time we have enough info to make a decent guess either way, something at least as dramatic and idiotic will happen and we'll all move on to the next shiny new distraction.

[Figarosmom]

31. It was another of his disenchanted

Followers. I say again you reap what you sow. No I don't give a fuck.

[canetoad]

32. I'm just going to leave this excerpt here

On the other side, she traces Jim Jones’ history of using secrecy and compliance to keep people bound to him, a “jarring blend of affection and threat” that was in play from his beginnings as a Pentecostal minister in Indiana. He faked assassination attempts, made people sick so he could heal them, and coerced members to sign “confessions” of child abuse and other crimes to be deployed should they defect. And yet, by the time his Peoples Temple arrived in San Francisco, countercultural haven, “the veneer was spotless.” Even Jones’ wife, Marceline, Scheeres writes, did not know about the most basic fraud.

San Francisco Temple members thought Jonestown would be a communist utopia, but it became “a vacuum of reason where Jones’ paranoia played out unfettered.”

35. Frankly I think it's but another SNAPSHOT of what Trump and Trumpism has

brought America TO, and what his dictatorship would BRING TO America.

Hate, violence, discord, rancor, divide, and chaos.

45. Sad commentary

But I must say I was busy and upon hearing I had no desire or even curiosity to learn the details.
We are all numb I suppose thanks to his years of abuse of our country.

Thanks in advance.

[paleotn]

49. Couldn't care less.

Apparently, the assailant is a nutter with a history of firearms charges among other things. And a...I suppose former ....Trump supporter.

Anything that distracts from GOTV efforts I don't care about.

[RidinWithHarris]

53. I'd care if it were *provably* orchestrated, and that could be used against Trump

But speculating in a vacuum without evidence is pointless, no matter how suspicious the attack might seem.

[LeftInTX]

94. They will use this against the Democrats. The AP was out at his house today and spotted a Biden Harris bumper sticker.

He gave some donations to Act Blue in 2024.

There is a Biden Harris bumper sticker on his work truck.








Google maps is from 2019, but you can see the house and truck.
https://maps.app.goo.gl/NDmTeZdfbDWbn8me8

[Think. Again.]

99. Maybe he just mispelled "Haley" when voted for her.

[LeftInTX]

105. Huh?? He voted for a Democratic ticket. Haley would not be on his ballet.

The primary you vote in is public record. He voted in the Democratic Primary. We don't know who he voted for. But Haley would not be on the ballot.

I can check and see if any Democrats "wrote in" Haley.

Checked and no Democrats "wrote-in" Haley.

https://www.guilfordcountync.gov/home/showpublisheddocument/14809/638515593416730000

[Think. Again.]

106. oh, I see, yeah rightwingers do sometimes...

...vote in open Democratic primaries to screw with the ticket. Good catch!

[LeftInTX]

109. Yes... However, he has donated to Democratic candidates this cycle. He also has a Biden Harris bumper sticker on his

truck.

[Think. Again.]

110. Had, he HAD a Biden/Harris sticker 5 years ago.

It took me months before I finally got around to removing an nra sticker from a used truck I bought once.

[LeftInTX]

132. Photo was from yesterday. That's his work truck.

Say what you want....Interpret this is "how he was thinking,"

I'm looking at optics and that's his truck today.

[Think. Again.]

133. my mistake, your post said googlemaps from 2019...

...the same shot taken from 2019 googlemaps at the link you provided shows a different truck.

[BlueKota]

117. Someone shared a screen shot of his X account

and he was sending tweets to Haley during primary season about who he wanted her to pick as her VP. On FB account he posted that he voted for Trump in 2016, but apparently he became disappointed in him.

Seems oddly similar to the previous' would be assassins story.

[RidinWithHarris]

103. That doesn't have anything to do with whether or not this attempt was orchestrated

It might bear on motive for orchestrating such a thing (pick a guy who's willing to pose as a Democrat for the job), or it could show motive for the guy to attempt this on his own.

As to the original question, whether I "give a shit whether the newest 'attempt' on Trump's life was legit or orchestrated", yes, I suppose I'd also care if the attempt was real and could be blamed on a Democrat. That's bad for us if true.

The "if true" part, of course, matters not a bit to how Republicans want to spin the story.

[LeftInTX]

104. Believe me, they are. It's the spin that matters. A bumper sticker is tangible fodder.

As to whether this total nutjob embraced Democratic values is dubious.
However, It's how they're able to spin this.

[Demobrat]

54. Why should I care.

He wouldn’t give a fuck if I got shot.

[PortTack]

55. Checking in...staged Bull shit

[crim son]

56. Zero Shits Given

As long as tRump is the alleged target, it's all good.

[Dem2theMax]

57. I'm just now hearing about it. First thought was, 'set up.'

He couldn't take a chance on actually being hit.
So, 'shots in the area.'

And look how quickly the MSN goes back to covering the orange shitgibbon.

I don't give a flying fuck.

[BlueKota]

66. I don't give a crap about anything

except the safety of our Democratic candidates and their winning the election. I hope this won't help his campaign. It scares me that it might.

[LeftInTX]

96. Considering that they found a Biden Harris bumper sticker on his truck, we should take this seriously and not a joke.

[BlueKota]

111. I don't think it's a joke.

I just don't want him to win. Seriously that's all that matters to me.

[bsiebs]

67. Oh.. someone tried again? Hmmm what will I have for dinner?

[Hope22]

68. Orchestrating mock assasination...

Is a mobby thing to do. It sounds about par for the course. I actually do care if TSF is behind it! Silly me. This isn’t a TV show….

[Wiz Imp]

70. I only care that the media is automatically compliant with Trump and calling it an assassination atempt

There has been no information released that would truly support the description of "assassination attempt", let alone any proof. All we get are contradicting "reports" that this happened or that happened or some other thing happened and this law enforcement agency said this and somebody else said something a little bit different. What the news media should be reporting is an "incident" happened around Trumps golf course property for which the details are not clear and let it go at that until fully official word from the Federal Government is released on what happened. But that would be responsible journalism. The current MSM does not do that.

[Beachnutt]

71. Probably one of the many business owners

that he shafted over the years.

[Martin68]

72. Odds are, Dumps's idiocy has drawn the psychos with guns who want to get on TV, or stop the crazy.

Either way, I really doubt it was planned by Dump or his team. Let's leave the wild conspiracy theories to the idiots on the other side. Otherwise, bring on the evidence and change my mind. I'm, a strong believer in Occam's Razor.

[gordianot]

73. I do care this is just another incident we'll into the twilight Zone of weirdness.

So far two assination attempt of a man running for President who openly says he wants to be a dictator. The last two Potential assassins appear to be as weird as Trump. The constant lies Donald Trump, Vance, and company are a constant source of frustration. The weirdos abound.

[gordianot]

74. I do care this is just another incident well into the realm twilight Zone of weirdness.

[Tribetime]

76. I think the guy is not all there and he's a former trump humper

There's no way this guy with his convictions.Should have been able to ever get an assault rifle

[Warpy]

77. I just want the chaos around that man to attract an alligator or a tornado

or something else we Democrats can't possibly be held responsible for . The last thing I want is some muzzy headed, half hinged freak to kill him off and turn him into some kind of martyr.

I'd rather his heart, liver, or head explodes after a lifetime of a 10 year old's favorite diet. Or he gets pooked enough about the prospect of prison that he spends the rest of his life in the UAE where it's hot and there's plenty of golf.

I don't care, I want him gone and the chaos with him. I just don't ever want him killed. Ever.

[Bird Lady]

78. I think it is fake

Just another attempt at misdirection. To take the debate and his mental decline out of this news cycle.
Both of these attempts are to garner sympathy from the braindead pinheads that follow him.

[JayDem]

79. Possibly another plant

IMHO the original assassination attempt story and this latest incident both ring untrue to me. At this stage of the game, I wouldn't put anything past the former liar-in-chief.

[ArmedLiberal24]

84. Notice how we do not see Trump talking about this ? No fist shaking fight,fight,fight. Pathetic try Miller. TRE45ON.

If they put some thought into it, he would not know anything about it unlike last time. Still does not matter. Hey Stevie. You can only cry wolf once. Even the most stupid of MAGA wont believe this one. Not even his royal Orange Pudding the First . TRE45ON.

[barbtries]

85. i give a shit

that this probable theater is being given so much air time. it's alarming to me that the craziness is going so far afoul of normalcy.

I don't think I even saw a thread discussing what Kamala and her running mate were doing today.

i don't like this at all.

[D23MIURG23]

87. If you live by the sword, you might die by the sword.

Political violence is wrong, but I think it's probably not coincidental that the politician who has been most flippant about inciting his followers to violence is now being targeted by it. People died on January 6th, and immigrants in OH are currently being targeted on his say so.

[DFW]

89. Good that you put "attempt" in quotes

A story saying „Shots Fired“ in a state whose governor wants everybody to be openly carrying a loaded firearm doesn‘t deserve a headline. If in the paper at all, it should be a three line blurb in the back between the crossword puzzle and the sports section.

[harumph]

121. Thank you, this is precisely what I was getting at.

We've become so normalized to the absolute insanity and I don't think most Americans care what happens to Trump - just as long as he goes away and we can exit this fever dream that he and his comrades have constructed for us. An annoying feature of our daily lives has become one hyperventilating headline after another pleading for our attention. It's all so pathetic and insulting.

[struggle4progress]

90. It's good if he takes a break from orchestrating bomb threats to Springfield

[John Shaft]

93. The same way I would care about an assassination attempt on Hitler (I was a toddler during the war).

I'd ask, "did they get him?"

[Sunsky]

95. I don't

The guy started his day with hate, "I HATE TAYLOR SWIFT" and hate followed him throughout the day. This rests on the shoulder of Trump. He stimulates hate in our society. Through lies, he has sicced his foot soldiers on an innocent immigrant community who are just trying to realize their American dream. I find it telling that both shooters seem to have leaned to the right. Nobody likes this guy outside of his cult members. He's now left with the support of his dwindling but very loud maga cult.
This doesn't mean I condone what happened because I'm not hate-filled and morally bankrupt like DJT.

[mucholderthandirt]

98. I only give a shit in regards to how the MSM bobbleheads are spinning this as from "the left" guy. With no proof.

The first time was one of his own believers, but they played that down. Now it's some dude who is more obviously mentally ill, and convenient. Serves the narrative better.

I am curious how he knew Trump was going to be on the course, since it hadn't been announce and only decided on being there about an hour before. If this dude was stalking Trump, apparently set up outside Mar-a-Lardo, why didn't the SS team spot this? That is their job, after all. How was this guy able to set up so conveniently outside a very public area with bags and a gun, and no one noticed? How is it that when he fled, people saw him, with no idea who he was, got his description and that of his vehicle, and even took pictures showing the license plate? Apparently all within minutes of the SS agent "noticing" a gun barrel in some bushes, over 100 yards away?

Hopefully some real news about a real investigation will come out. Then we can have Congress spending time on more hearings instead of passing the spending budget, if it ever gets out of the House. Good work, guys!

[LeftInTX]

108. This did not occur at Mar a largo. It occurred at an unsecure golf course a few miles away.

It's only secured with chain link fence, that's covered with vegetation. It's next to the jail.

I bet the guy who saw him flee had a dashboard camera.

[Vinca]

116. Apparently, the guy voted for Trump in 2016 and was more recently a supporter of Haley and Vivek.

They said something about him having a long criminal record so the big question is why are there so many guns on the street that any Tom, Dick and lunatic can get one.

[tavernier]

100. You mean after Kamala and Tim posted those hate tweets?

Oh wait… they didn’t. Those were from the other candidates.

So no. No shits given.

[TommieMommy]

101. The way he treats people and the stuff he says, I don't care

[samnsara]

102. i really feel the ear shot was some nutter trying to kill trump but this is

pure bullshit. I do not feel this was a legit 'assassination attempt'...i go with the initial reports of two men outside the golf course, in a neighborhood known for high crime, exchanging shots. Then all of a sudden all the headlines were the same...


i smell a vance

[dwayneb]

115. With a GoPro in place? I don't think so.

This was planned. And it's going to hurt Harris at a time when she can least afford any setback.

[Omnipresent]

107. As of 7am this morning...

The Palm Beach County Sheriff’s Department has patrol cars blocking the four lane road called, ‘Summit Blvd’, off of Congress Ave, which is the only street entrance to the ‘Trump international golf course’.
I guess they haven’t been able to wrap up their investigation??

[ecstatic]

118. It matters to me if it was orchestrated

I've been hearing about this "attempt" non-stop since yesterday evening. If it was a staged shooting then the public should know about it and there should be legal consequences. Hopefully trump would finally be forced to go to jail.

[Scrivener7]

119. I do care. I believe both were bullshit. And I believe

they present a danger to anyone who is in the vicinity when they happen. One person is dead.

And I violently resent him turning our political system into some kind of thunderdome circus.

I care.

[Martin Eden]

120. I give a shit on both counts, especially if it was orchestrated.

Exposing the orchestration before the election would likely seal the deal.

I think it's more likely the story is as reported -- a man with a criminal record and apparent mental health issues had access to an assault rifle and the perimeter of a property that is not very secure.

Why do I give a shit about that?

I do NOT want Trump assassinsted.

Increasingly, he is an albatross around the neck of the Republican Party. They deserve to stew in the stench of that rotting carcass from this point forward at least as long as they have been poisoning the soul of America with that vile orange abomination.

[housecat]

122. Concept of a plan

Maybe the alleged would-be shooter just had a concept of a plan

[MorbidButterflyTat]

124. I could not give less than a shit

What I DO give a shit about, and am really sick of, is being scolded repeatedly for expressing doubts about the legitimacy of reports about another "assassination attempt" made by someone who didn't even fire a shot. So like, an attempted assassination attempt?

Having legitimate doubts about the pathological liar and convicted felon is NOT a GD conspiracy theory. If that means I'm not "better than that," too effing bad.

[ProfessorGAC]

126. I Wouldn't Consider ait An Attempt

An assassination plot that was foiled? Yes.
But, I don't see how it meets the definition of an attempt.

[get the red out]

127. Checking in

I need to find where to early vote. I personally don't think anyone around Trump is smart enough to set up a "false flag" for sympathy though.

139. Trump is a domestic terrorist himself, so I'm not interested in his self-inflicted drama which we all

know is just a convenient opportunity to have an ego conference with "journalists" who will call it a press conference.

I'm waiting for news of a secret service notice to trump that he should quit inciting violence, so the SS agents don't have to go through all this bullshit.
