Speaking as he prepared to board a flight to the upcoming Republican National Convention (RNC) in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, where he is expected to be confirmed as the party’s candidate for president, Mr Trump said he now had a “chance to bring the country together”.
He said his speech would now be completely different instead of the “humdinger” aimed mostly at current President Joe Biden’s policies he had previously planned.
“Had [Saturday’s attack] not happened, this would’ve been one of the most incredible speeches.
“Honestly, it’s going to be a whole different speech now. It is a chance to bring the country together.”
“I’m supposed to be dead” says Trump. “No one should be able to eat the number of cheeseburgers I eat and still be alive.”
“My doctor says you have the
highestgreatest LDL count of any president ever.” “Lipitor, sweet lipitor, isn’t it great folks, eat all the McDonald’s you could ever want, take one little pill and it all washes away, right into the toilet that won’t flush, 7-8 times you have to flush that thing.”Hamberders, IIRC.
Basically, a massive narcissist was just martyred by someone in his own party. The narcissism will be even further off the charts now. His already unbearable cult of personality will got so far past 11, it’s going to be so much worse.
The optimist in me was so hoping Trump would see the error of his ways after his life was tried and another made forfeit in his stead.
Motherfucker still talking about himself. God damnit. I had a hopeful moment, my bad. Back to Plan A: Big ballsy Biden’s bountiful bouquet of blissful banter.
Which, I might add, is currently surrounded by the lackluster looming laughable languid leftist lobotomy of a circus performance, and I’m not only referring to the politicians. stares
Princess Carolyn?
It’s shit like this that reminds me A Christmas Carol is fiction
What’s plan B?
Something else Republicans wanna do away with.
This whole thing about the dude being a member of his party… is that confirmed now?
Last I read was that the person had donated money to left leaning politicians but registered as a Republican to participate in the Republican primaries.
You never know what is up or down nowadays. I guess that’s probably always been true though.
I think the donation has been debunked as an elderly man with the same name.
This is why we shouldn’t speculate until actual information is out. Most of the basis of our speculation is going to be flat-out wrong.
Oh I agree with you, that was my point pretty much. I was wondering if more had came out.
I think it’s reasonably confirmed.
Heaping on: He registered to vote as a Republican in the ‘22 midterm. A reason being given for a Democrat to register as Republicans is said to be to spoil primaries, but he did not vote in this year’s primary, so I think that line of thought is less likely.
In the article you shared. “Campaign finance records show that in January 2021, as a 17-year-old, Crooks gave $15 to the Progressive Turnout Project, a pro-Democrat political action committee, Axios reported. However, records show that he later registered as a Republican and voted in the 2022 midterm elections.”
Why did he give money to Progressive Turnout Project?
I don’t know man. It’s obviously not black and white.
Honestly, who knows?
The news is saying that his voter registration was weeks after he turned 18. His peers have repeatedly said they believe he was a conservative, and he registered republican.
I would more trust his voter registration (which held constant for 2 years) and the words others say about patterns of actions from him than a one-time donation to a PAC.
It was a 20 year old, hardly someone with a long political history. He wasn’t even able to legally drink.
At 20 I was passionately political. Anecdotal, I know.
It’ll all come out eventually. Maybe he wrote something.
Just a fall guy for the powers that be. Don’t worry about him.

Was thinking the same thing…
Not sure about “only” but they’re certainly few and far between. And unlike this idiot who’s , I guess , a front runner for his VP. This type of language is how we got here.
This tweet / statement popped up on the news thus morning while I was waiting to see the weather forecast.
Isn’t that also the central premise of the Trump campaign minus the must be stopped part?
Wasn’t it the central premise of the republican campaign that lead directly to the attempted assassination of Nancy Pelosi?
Like that argument doesnt hold up because theres probably a lot of folks who have wanted Trump dead since at least the 80s. Him being an authoritarian shitheel is just another piece of wood on the fire.
I seem to remember that being the central premise of Vance’s own previous statements as well.
Did JD Vance inspire a Pennsylvanian incel to try to assassinate Trump?
o ya I’m p sure Biden said something along the lines of “if [the other guy] wins, you won’t have a country anymore”, right?
I’ll believe it when I see it. The only thing he’s ever been able to unify is an angry mob
What? That wasn’t him, it was ANTIFA. One big liberal conspiracy. The only conservatives in the crowd that day were tourists who were innocently shunted along into the building. They never intended to go inside, it was the fault of ANTIFA and the woke liberal mob.
It’s a sad day for everyone, stop rubbing it in.
Yeah that’s what a lot of us have been saying for years, but you’re wretched, putrid old heart just keeps ticking along and making everybody’s lives hell.

I’m so sure THIS is the thing that is going to unify our country around a common cause. Yep, just like a lighter unites gasoline and wood.
So you’re saying you’re going against God’s will?
Is he going to play the “like Jesus, I died and resurrected from the dead, I’m your saviour” card?
He’s gonna say he’s better then Lincoln because Lincoln didn’t survive being shot in the head.
I think there’s no chance he won’t say it at some point. His supporters will love it.
I wonder if he wants to go to the Ford theatre and get point blanked by an 1800s pistol?
Yes, yes he will.
will he also play the ‘fucked off to heaven 3 days later’ card?
“Honestly, it’s going to be a whole different speech now. It is a chance to bring the country together.”
Anyone else worried that his definition of brining ‘the country together’ may be more along the lines of trying to instigate coordinated violence against his perceived enemies and adversaries?
He’s made it quite clear that there’s “his country” and those that don’t belong in it.
Just an inch to the side and this nightmare would finally have a beginning act of the end of the party of Trump.
Simpsons did make a prediction for September though so my hopes are not dead
End of the party of Trump, maybe. They’d still probably invoke his name at every opportunity.
End of the party of fascism and nihilistic corruption? No way, he’s a figurehead there.
Totally agree with you. Fascism has never been defeated by voting and an assassination wouldn’t do much more than delay it at best.
What is The Simpsons prophesy this time?
He dies in September 2024
I don’t know tbh, but a bunch of Simpsons fans are mentioning there’s a prediction for Trump in September and I don’t have my life together enough to go and look it up
at first I lol’d at your last line then I felt bad for laughing. sorry man.
Lol, no problem. I laugh at my own life being a shambling mess too
Was it the shot or shard of glass? I’m not sure which is correct at this stage .

I’m wondering what his cult of personality would do if say, he had survived but his nose had been blasted off. Conservatives tend to be ableist, if he was uncomfortable to look at, would his support weaken significantly?
Oh that would be interesting.
Didnt hitler survive multiple near death situations?
If only…but I want it to be after he’s in prison.
