And now we enter the American Midnight.
The attempt on Trump’s life changes everything..
A failed assassination attempt is probably the worst case scenario in terms of backlash as Trump will still be alive (and more paranoid and vindictive than ever) and his MAGA acolytes are about to be given the justification for vigilante violence that they have always yearned for.
The polarised political times we are now invested in have provided their predictable harvest of deranged revenge.
We are all now on the precipice.

Trump’s revenge will be a tsunami of retribution the likes we haven’t witnessed.
Trump is the most racist, homophobic, transphobic, mysoginstic, fatphobic, anti atheist, anti Palestinian, prudish, bible basing president in US history.
I am sorry that the shooter didnt miss. He should have been assisinated. Anyone who wants to roll back civil rights in the USA needs to be assasinated. The stakes are that high.
The USA must not become a theocracy.
And Biden doesn’t meet that criteria? Hilarious
In what way?
Trump just got elected.
Unhappy moderates can now see which side actually chose violence.
Terrible to see the polarity of politics now and echoes of it here with people thinking it’s funny, innocent spectator killed and all.
You are the lot who wants gays and blacks strung up from lampposts. You start taking away people’s civil rights, people are going to start fighting back.
That’s Hamas.
You forgot to mention the piano wire. Just don’t mention my clothes line, ok?
It could have been all on if the wannabe assassin had been a slightly better shot.
probably a national party member
Urinalbushrat He fired eight shots, eight, before being taken down.Trevor Coult reports well on this.
So no problem with 6 people dying on Capitol Hill , 2 being innocent police officers who never returned to their families due to Trump and his side actually doing the violence KCCO?
Terrible to see the polarity of your right leaning politics and you think it’s okay to now decide violence is something new because your favorite convicted president was the victim?
KCCO longs for the time when blacks, gays and women knew their place, and transgenders were dragged behind the back of utes. They are a threat to civil rights in the USA, and indeed, here,.
You forgot to mention politicians, Central Otago rabbits, and in-laws.
Didn’t five of those six, all except the one lady who was slaughtered in cold blood by the police just like George Floyd, die of heart attacks from being fat yanks? Sounds like ‘natural’ causes to me, if you consider Americans natural.
Fake blood fake news .Looks like a movie plot to me because he is going down if Biden steps aside .
False Flag Theory.
So Gordon you are going with a False Flag theory that Trump needs a failed assassination attempt.
Lone Wolf Theory.
Lone wolf provoked to shoot,
by Biden https://t.ly/6WY2Y
by A Taxi Driver https://t.ly/L2qfC
NRA Theory
Everyone has the right to own a sniper rifle.
MIC Theory
Kennedy: We are out of Viet Nam
MIC: Bang
Trump: We are out of Ukraine
MIC: Bang
yep how come the person behind never got hit by that bullet .If it only grazed his ear it still would have injured or killed the person behind him .
By the way, Trump carried on with the USA’s war mongering. He took out that Iranian guy, and pardoned war criminals. He also gave money and weapons to the Ukrainans well, when they were fighting the 2014-22 dirty war.
This has sure brought out the conspiracy crazies on the left.
Yet the brain dead crazy right continue to sympathise with a convicted felon, multiple bankruptee and conspiracist on election fraud.
Yep you are a true legend KCCO.
Well said Martyn.
The U.S. gun lobby is a big financial support of Trump….and Trump of them.
The chicken’s have now come home to roost….this is the reality for both parties.
The U.S…..what a mess!!
yep shit just got real for the old prick .He has been pushing violence for 4 years and now one of his own has dished it up to him .The shooter is a registered Rebublican voter
How? It has no effect on the lives of those outside Ammurrica. The US will continue to be a malign force no matter what senile old zionist coot is the figurehead.
If this accelerates the destruction of the US from within, it should be celebrated.
Bugger !!!!!!!!!
“You know Murray, you get what you fucking deserve”

Trump is pro the gun lobby, I wonder how he’s feeling about that decision right now.
Trump tried to ban ‘bump stocks’, the Biden admin allowed them to be freely sold again. Trump is anti-gun.
Bullshit Mohammed. Have you seen the donation Trump received from the rifle association? I thought not.
probably a national party member you are 100% CORRECT about the gun lobby could not happen to a better man
Trump was responsible for the death of 6 US citizens and people want to offer sympathy for the man. Some people on this site have a very low set of values.
He also actively egged on the recent surge in police violence after the past decade.
Trump was responsible for the deaths of hundreds of thousands of Yemenis. Every single one of those Yemeni lives is more valuable than any American who has ever lived. Americans are all trash
Moh Khan “ Americans are all trash”. No they’re not. Go and see for yourself. If you’re thinking of Hollywood, even some there are talented, hard-working, and more cerebral, than most inhabitants of this cold threshold land.
Whatever Mohammed.
Who just put the US on the edge? Some lunatic from the left.
They failed with with lawfare, they failed with the media onslaught and now everyone can see Biden’s senile they’ve reached for a rifle and failed again.
The left need to own this total fucking disaster.
Trump is a symptom of the disease the elite has made
The world really doesn’t need a megalomaniac like Trump but it’s the left that have made him happen
This shooter is a hero. He is the only one who had enough guts to do what needed to be done to stop the full reversal of civil rights, and mass progroms agains minorities in the USA.
The USA will slide into Theocracy, however this shooter will rememered as someone who decided to resist. I hope that more do over coming weeks and months.
Mark David Chapman was a fan of the Beatles, but that didn’t stop him from murdering John Lennon. So it might be a little early to be finger pointing. You might want to get some facts before you start the accusations.
Wrong! The shooter, Thomas Matthew Crooks was a Republican .
“Who just put the US on the edge? Some lunatic from the left.”
Why is it that you can rely on right wing nut jobs to open their traps with conclusions before they have any evidence to support them?
It’s being reported the shooter was a registered Republican.
Next they’ll tell us that was a cover and it was an antifa plot organised by George Soros or the Lizardmen.
To answer your question Yeti, Trump put the US on edge. It started with the Capitol Hill ” fight like hell” rhetoric, followed by not accepting the election result and now his rhetoric of ” fight, fight, fight.”
Only someone from the right with delusions believe this type of event was orchestrated by the left.
Trump encouraged it and in his narcissistic beliefs never thought someone would target him.
Should have got the IDF to do the job they would have done it and taken out 100 of the riff raff and been gone inside 30 seconds .
It’s Joever
Has he not heard of KAMA .Spent the last 5 years preaching violence and hate and now its come for him .
His MAGA acolytes seem to know the play.
They are expecting a hit on Biden to then be blamed on them.
So are largely keeping cool heads.
They know the US economy is in a mess and that Biden won’t win.
Believing the deep state is looking for a distraction.
Perhaps trying to ignite a civil war or to label the MAGA acolytes as terrorist.
Helping to provide cover and blame for the financial crash and to help keep Trump out of the Whitehouse.
A few observations of the shooting ….
It was poor inaccurate shooting from a large magazine rifle with over 10 shots fired in about 10 seconds ,,, a couple of more shots are heard after a break of around 10 seconds,, which I presume are the ones which killed the wonky shooting would be assassin.
Judging from the direction Trumps head and body were facing when his ear got clipped,,, and with the shooter apparently shooting from a roof outside the Trump rally venue ,,, would mean the bullets came flying at him from the ‘far right’ … ironically.
Putting aside the blame game and conspiracy theories, the direct consequences of the dead, wayward, spray and pray no hope assassin,,, is a elevation of the Trump image and mythology.
Photos like these are electioneering gold that money can not buy ,,, https://youtu.be/lbQ0k_SDBog?list=TLPQMTMwNzIwMjS-5ngSjJEfcg&t=359
Forget the purple heart ,,, when trump gets elected he will award himself a medal ,, a Presidential Heart.
A Great country led by a man who has shown great bravery under fire is the American exceptionalism that only Trump can (and will) campaign on.
Some will see this turn of events and say “God Bless America” ,,,, others will tell you “the Devil takes care of his own”….. out of these two imaginary Gods the Devils been winning in the Usa for a long long time, imo
******************************************************
Hillary Clinton representing the democrats in the Obama Govt was gleeful to once say , “We came, we saw, he died, hahaha”,,, over a murder/assassination they precipitated and sanctioned.
To use her abuse of the original Julius Caesar quote ,,, and have her speaking for the once Dems again ,,, I think we can safely say her position in this instance would be ,,,,,,,,,,,,
,,,, ‘He came, He missed, and she’s pissed.’
B Awake, the irony is that Trump wasn’t very good because he got hit by the bullet rings true because of his comment on war veteran John McCain.
Is this “The shot heard around the world”? It certainly rings loud and clear.. That much I know,,
Well I guess it confirms what I’ve always thought. If the bullet entered Felon Daipher Don’s left ear, then excited his right one, causing only slight bleeding, then there truly is nothing between his ears. Pretty poor shot, if the media got the measurements right. Crook was 137 meters away, shooting downward straight on, and missed.
As for repercussions, nah. This incident won’t shift any Democrat voters, not any Independents. It might, just might cause a few Republicans to vote who otherwise wouldn’t have, but in this election in particular, minds were made up months ago when the first indictments came down and the first conviction was made. If you think this will change anything, you’re living on another planet.
“causing only slight bleeding,”
but it wasn’t Tump’s blood, it wasn’t black, it was red.
I think bottles of ketchup must be part of standard SS kit. 🙂
Great news for Biden, he can go back to hiding out in his bunker now and the so-called Left side of the corporate media (i.e. the side charged with bull crapping the left-leaning populace) can now spearhead his campaign without the handicap of having to put up with him being around.
Whatever the case, this is great news for the totally corrupted US political and media machines and most likely great news for the police-intel-military machines also, meaning all, in all, this is a shyt day for, we the people!
Fingers crossed that Russia or China or Hamas is not scapegoated for this.
The completely corrupted right wing media have done their job on you AO.
Meanwhile, in the same news timeframe, a ” precision raid ” took place in a designated safe zone that civilians had just been sent to in Gaza.
American weapons massacred 90 within minutes.
NZ msm missed it. No one wept at the innocent lives lost and the 300 mutilated bodies were left injured.
A Republican shot Trump and NZ leaders sent their well wishes.
What a sick country we are.
