It is absolutely wild the agenda (vendetta?) that Trump and his merry band of corrupt conservative chuds have against the people of America - well, at least those who aren't rich. He is systematically dismantling the middle class, the education system, public lands and citizen rights and freedoms... and his idiot base laps it up like it's a good thing. And the GOP successfully does this through media manipulation, misinformation and flat-out lying (and whatever that term Steve Bannon calls it).
If hell exists, everyone complicit with that administration is going straight there when they finally exit this realm.

I really feel for my American friends and family down there who didn’t vote for any of this lunacy. They’re all incredibly frightened, worried, sad, and disheartened. And some of them are actively making plans to leave the U.S. A buddy of mine in Portland is a doctor with a young family, and he and his wife are seriously looking at Canada as a destination.

I think very few of those who say they’ll leave will do so. Many won’t be able to afford to flee the country or have the courage. I imagine it’s hard to immigrate to another country. I hope that many professionals will flee. Doctors, nurses, scientists, engineers, teachers…. Canada should make it easier to come here and assist with the transition. Let the U.S. train them and we’ll benefit.

I’m beginning to think, if it does, this is it.

That’s is weird, eh? There was never much of a peep about the shooter. But somehow they managed the perfect photo op and the SS sure took their time getting Trump off the stage while he stood for photos and pumped his fist into the camera. Not like the false alarm on the campaign trail in 2016 when Trump was rushed quickly off stage and he looked like he shat is pants in fear.

I said to the wife that night when we saw him standing there with his fist in the air that it looked like a staged event

The flag above him, perfectly staged too. Then the immediate marketing, t-shirts, mugs, etc.

It really is kinda fun being on the other side of conspiracy theories for once. I get the allure. Still not convinced about the whole pull it and jet fuel can't melt steel beams 9/11 thing though

Well, in fairness if someone were to try taking a shot at Trump and I was security? I'd probably say "I dont see nuthin'!" as well.
Potentially while making the hand gesture of "hurry up!!"

The photo with the bullet in midair makes it much harder to believe it was staged.. If the bullet was real and it was staged then that was a HUGE risk.
I'd need a lot of evidence to believe it was a setup.

It’s a risk I’d be willing to take.

Government got to this poster before they could reveal the truth. We're on the right path.

With Trump's deep ties to wrestling (#### President Trump, the first title we should always start with WWE HOFer Trump) thinking the whole thing was a work is simply the logical thing to do. Where it loses its logic is why would he risk a work like this when he was well ahead? He was like 95% likely to win when it happened. If he was down in the polls that would be one thing, but the risk of the work being revealed for a very small increase in his already extremely high probability just doesn't jive.

True. Although Trump does idolize the likes of Putin and couldn’t care less about the welfare of others. We’re far past living in normal times. Dude also totally lied about the state of his ear injury.

I don't think the shooting was staged, but it might have been a situation where they knew there was a risk and certain people chose to look the other way,
Assassination plans or attempts of presidents and other political figures in the U.S. are not super rare. Usually they get foiled before the public finds out about them (if they ever find out). I wouldn't put it past some of the people in his circle at the time to just put him in harms way and see what happens. That's as far as I am willing to go on that conspiracy theory.
