Details scanty, but photos in this article:

https://www.abc.net.au/news/2024-07-14/ ... /104095660
Donald Trump has been rushed off stage after multiple shots were heard at a rally in Pennsylvania.

Images showed blood on the face and ear of the former president, and snipers on the roof near the stage where Mr Trump was standing.

I can imagine 2, quite opposite conspiracy theories:

From Trumpsters, that this was an attack by a Joe Biden/Deep State hit squad.

From the left, that it was a staged, fake attack, designed to garner the sympathy vote for Trump.

Maybe it was just a loan shark collecting. He never pays his bills.

Trump has to be considered as insanely lucky. Clearly, the shooter was aiming for a head shot - to have a wounded ear is luck on an industrial scale...

Trump is Jesus now. I wish America well with their new project 2025 overlord in November.

Elon Musk endorses Donald Trump shortly after ex-president injured by shots fired at rally
Imagine that. I guess it's only coincidental that you'd already be the perfect citizen in the ideal world you're selling.

Kid won a $500 "star award" from the National Math and Science Initiative. Not just some gnu nut but a science geek gnu nut. So why did he miss? Deliberate?

he FBI identified the 20-year-old Pennsylvania resident who was killed after trying to assassinate Trump as Thomas Matthew Crooks.

Crooks was a resident of Bethel Park, a village about 55 miles south of the shooting scene in Butler, Pennsylvania.

He was registered to vote as a Republican. But records show that his one known political donation, for $15 in 2021, was to Act Blue, a group that supports Democratic candidates.
