It's in their best interest to spin it that way, especially with the audio of Trump asking how much Hillary paid for the guy to be there.

So the protester labeled an "assassin" is apparently a republican, and was trying to hold up a Republicans against Trump sign.

Not only not an assassination attempt, but sounds like he was getting beat up before anyone said anything about a gun. Though it's easy to misremember sequences of events in stuff like that.
After he was released from custody, Crites told reporters the incident started off when he raised a "Republicans Against Trump" sign.
Crites said he was then assaulted by a group of people around him before anyone shouted anything about a gun.
"All of a sudden, because they couldn't grab the sign, or whatever happened, bam, I get tackled by all these people who were just, like, kicking me and grabbing me in the crotch and just, just beating the crap out of me," Crites said, according to KTNV. "And somebody yells something about a gun, and so that's when things really got out of hand."
The alleged assault against Crites is just the latest such incident to occur at a Trump rally, where other protesters have previously been roughed up.

Ya " assassination" attempt. Any logical being can see past this and know there os no chance he got a gun past the type of security they setup to get in and out of these rallies.
The key word is LOGICAL which seems to be a shortage in the Trump camp.

He is defiantly at a Trump rally. They must have been just following how their dear leader does business. They didn't even ask . They just moved on him like a bitch. They tried to grab him by the ##### and woumd up severly disappointed in the end. They couldn't help it they all were just attracted like a magnet. He was married but they couldn't help it. He was just so beautiful. They unfortunately though they didn't have enough tic tacs to go around beforehand.

Now you still might be thinking "no big deal", which is your choice, but these small actions can influence voters. Here is an article which talks about the level of influence this can have on elections:
We present evidence from five experiments in two countries suggesting the power and robustness of the search engine manipulation effect (SEME). Specifically, we show that (i) biased search rankings can shift the voting preferences of undecided voters by 20% or more, (ii) the shift can be much higher in some demographic groups, and (iii) such rankings can be masked so that people show no awareness of the manipulation. Knowing the proportion of undecided voters in a population who have Internet access, along with the proportion of those voters who can be influenced using SEME, allows one to calculate the win margin below which SEME might be able to determine an election outcome.
The search engine manipulation effect (SEME) and its possible impact on the outcome of elections. |
Try finding crimes after any person on autocomplete. I dare you. You'll find that it's the same for all people

Seriously, it won't even autocomplete anything negative for Lee Harvey Oswald or Jeffrey Dahmer. Interestingly it will do so for fictional characters like Hannibal Lecter.

Am I the only one that Googles exactly what I want to know about and doesn't pay attention to auto complete suggestions?

Two days until the election and still nothing about Trumps tax records.
How he managed to get away with that one, I'll never know.

Seems as though his base wouldn't care if he was a convicted serial killer. They'd still vote for him.

So, can Melania be charged for working illegally? Or has that one passed?
Not as in immigration charged but charged for fraud or something like that?
