Here is the reason I think the Trump team staged PA: [View all]

And go ahead and flame me after you've read my post.

My biggest sticking point (besides the miraculous ear, which was after the fact):

TRUMP IS A COWARD!

If he had truly come THAT CLOSE to death, he would have soiled his depends and quit the campaign.
There is no way that pathetic child came up shaking his fist, ready to "fight."

Yes, I am totally willing to believe someone else was shot and killed to make it "real."
These people have zero conscience. They feel they are above the law, and that non-wealthy people are non-persons, here to simply do what's best for them.

Plus the ear thing.

I won't bother with this latest "attempt" as many other DUers have pointed out how this simply does not pass any sort of smell test.

OK, flame away.
