We don't know yet why the shooter tried to kill Trump.

We do know how the Republicans will spin this.

Trump can't be intimidated.

Trump is a soldier and a warrior and a survivor.

They tried to silence him.

Trump's opponents are desperate and violent.

Guns aren't that dangerous.

And more bullshit like that.

This assassination attempt will energize GOP voters and blunt Democratic attacks. It makes it easier for Trump to promote himself and criticize Biden, while Biden has to defend himself without endorsing a madman, and cannot attack Trump without starting with, "I do not condone violence, but..."

You forgot what they're already saying; God sent his angels to move the bullet.

Don't want to make any Americans feel bad, but that's where your country is at right now. No one's going to think less of you if you'd like to come join us elsewhere.

Well, except for your country's immigration office, who would deny most average Americans the ability to join you.

Yeah, for all the shit people give US immigration laws. They're some of the lowest requirements of any modern country.

Most everywhere you need a college degree in a sought after field.

Not to mention, the vast majority of Americans can't even dream of having enough money to afford the move to begin with. The American dream is reasonable rent and affordable debt repayments now.

This is where I am at.. Looks like around $20k to move elsewhere in the world, and I've got $0 atm.
