The not calling but well enough to golf is so painfully on brand with his political instincts and selfishness that it just makes me cringe. 

 

Hilariously apparently Mike Lee may have actually tweeted out an old golfing video. But now everyone will think Trump went golfing the next day. Genius,

Also, the Trump people are surely going to pay the hospital bills for the injured and help pay for funeral expenses of the deceased right?

Wow, you guys are messed up expecting Trump to hold a phone up to his ear after what he’s been through! Sure, he has another ear, but have you ever tried switching to your non-usual ear? It just feels wrong, okay? SURE, he could put the call on speaker phone, but that would be incredibly rude to the people around him: have you people no manners?!?!?

Trump’s a lot of things, but he’s not going to be a Lefty Caller. That’s only for assholes like Larry David.

It's the family's home and Newsweek is running one of its usual click-bait headlines.

 

In the previous article @stepee posted it said his mother is a democrat and his father a libertarian, and this guy is a registered republican so it's really impossible to gauge what's going on here. Maybe the kid just wanted to die and did it in the most high profile way.

The host said that next time, it would be "us" on the air, "or they can get somebody else to host the show."

 

They should resign from the network if this is going to be the modus operandi going forward.

If he had succeeded he would have had his name live forever.

Could be, apparently the Gabby Gifford shooter wasn't politically motivated either.

Technically neither was Robald Reagan's... wasn't he in love with Jodie Foster or something?

 

Yep thought it would impress her.

 

One of the assassination attempts on Gerald Ford was by a Manson family member.

If only it weren’t so easy to get slightly below military grade weapons, we wouldn’t have to figure out the political leanings of a crazy kid.


The second amendment was and remains an enormous mistake.

I don’t know how accurate this is but I’ve seen it posted on Al gores internet that if the shooter used a long barrel gun instead of an AR type rifle there wouldn’t be a Trump anymore because of some reason I can’t remember 

 

if true

US authorities obtained intelligence from a human source in recent weeks on a plot by Iran to try to assassinate Donald Trump, a development that led to the Secret Service increasing security around the former president in recent weeks, multiple people briefed on the matter told CNN.

 

There’s no indication that Thomas Matthew Crooks, the would-be assassin who attempted to kill the former president on Saturday, was connected to the plot, the sources said.

 

The existence of the intelligence threat from a hostile foreign intelligence agency — and the enhanced security for Trump — raises new questions about the security lapses at the Saturday rally in Butler, Pennsylvania, and how a 20-year-old man managed to access a nearby rooftop to fire shots that injured the former president.

 

A US national security official said the Secret Service and Trump campaign were made aware of the threat before Saturday’s rally.

 

“Secret Service learned of the increased threat from this threat stream,” the official told CNN. “NSC directly contacted USSS at a senior level to be absolutely sure they continued to track the latest reporting. USSS shared this information with the detail lead, and the Trump campaign was made aware of an evolving threat. In response to the increased threat, Secret Service surged resources and assets for the protection of former President Trump. All of this was in advance of Saturday.”
