UPDATE: In this video I blister Trump for lying about being hit by a bullet when, according to reports, his wound was actually caused by a shard of glass. Since I wrote and shot this video, those reports have been debunked and it appears likely that Trump's ear wound was caused by a bullet after all. So, please disregard that, and remember that regardless of what hit him in the ear, Trump is still a liar who must be defeated in November's election. Apologies for getting the glass bit wrong.

An important thing to remember: Trump is an actor (like Reagan), very well aware of how imagery influences the public. When he said "Wait, wait, wait..." to his Secret Service detail, he knew he needed to strike a pose that would live on on magazine covers and social media for the ages. I am completely disgusted with how Right Wing Big Media has been handling this travesty with irresponsible lies and half-truths and I can scarcely believe the gullible viewers eating this up are actual adults, lead by their feelings and not their heads. Thanks, Steve!

Also I've a suspicious that King Donald's man-child tendencies leave him with a greater sense of his own immortality than a teenage boy on a cocktail of PCP and coke.

Since then, I voted for Democrats and changed my registration to the Democratic Party so I could vote for John Edwards in the primary.

In 1912 only current presidents were under the protection of the Secret Service. Which at the time was not Roosevelt. If he had been they would have forced him to leave also. So it's not fair to directly compare the two assassination attempts and use it as ammo against President Trump. Would he have stayed and continued with his speech? Yeah probably actually. This isn't the first time someone pulled a gun while he was campaigning. Trump refused to leave and continued addressing the crowd also just like TR. You don't have to like Trump. I don't. But he is a very formidable man. If I said otherwise I would only be lying to myself. And Biden.....most certainly is not.

SS only provided protection to the current president at the time and Roosevelt was not him. If they had then they would have rushed Roosevelt away like they are supposed to do.

This was not the first time someone pulled out a gun while he was campaigning. And Trump stayed and continued addressing the crowd after the situation was contained.

Voting doesnt cause forward change. Community action does. Voting however, can slow or halt backward and authoritarian change. Voting is the lowest form of political engagement, and not voting is still voting. Not voting, is still voting. Thats something a lot of leftists forget. Also. Just a reminder, no matter who wins in Nov, the SCOTUS has made a powergrab so large that the Justices now hold more power then the office of president domestically.

It took Trump hours from learning that an innocent person died to start bragging about what a great photo he took during the shooting. His concern from the victim lasted about as long as it took for adding a few characters about it on a social media post. But we should all be concerned about him, people.

I have a couple of friends who never vote because they "don't understand how it works". Every time there's an election I urge them to vote, to ask questions. I remind them that as women, we HAVE to vote. It's been just over 100 years since we've had that right and it baffles me that so many women don't do it. I try to get my friends to vote. So far they have refused. I will keep trying.

This shooting reminds me of a Stephen King book, The Dead Zone. This man goes into a coma, and when he wakes up, he starts having visions. He eventually has a vision of a politician rising to power. He decided he needs to kill him before that happens. However, something goes wrong, and the candidate uses a nearby child to shield himself. The man didn't want to shoot a child, so he was killed before he could complete what he thought his mission was. Instead, the fact he tried to use a child angered his followers, and so his reputation was ruined. The book was released in 1979, before people come for King.
