In reply to the discussion: I very well might be wrong but somethings about the Trump shooting seem odd to me [View all]Diraven
(1,934 posts)62. Too much of a conspiracy theory
I think the only things that smell are:
1. Trump himself brought this on himself with his constant violent rhetoric, but much of the media are dutifully parroting Republicans that Democrats are really at fault for demonizing him.
2. Much of the media is trying to retell the whole event as a thriller where Trump is now the patriotic hero.
So if anything stinks it's the media going for entertainment ratings instead of just reporting the facts.

That's a matter of opinion until facts are fully known, and they are investigating.

JFK's assassination is still being debated today, DJT's ear assassination will also be the source of many CTs.

I understand your point, they're all just theories, it doesn't have to be a conspiracy.

I don't buy the loner, white guy gun nut story. Too neat and wrapped up, end of story.

I accept that events unfolded as they did, but yeah... it's kind of hard to believe.
