This is my last post on this thread before I add it to the ignore list.

I don’t like Trump. Not only I disagree with his policies and him as a person, but it would be bad for Europe if he does get elected. That being said, the fact that many people (whom have been calling their opposite side as “fascist”, ironically enough) are celebrating an assassination attempt tells you exactly how fucked American politics are. No doubt in my mind that these people would cheer even more when/if Trump actually gets killed.

My suggestion to all of you is to take a chill pill and re-read anything before you post it. Not because it’s against the rules, but because it’s morally disgusting. Badger out.
Though I agree with you, there's the important caveat of consequence.

This guy has been acting unlawful for years, and about the only consequence he got was 'not getting re-elected'. He insults, threatens violence and has committed all sorts of crimes. But media and republicans just provide ample excuses, cover for him or demands delays. In a normal country, he would've been arrested on the evening of January 6. Here, it took well over a year before the judge (Cannon) decided that prosecutor Smith wasn't qualified. He treated his Carroll conviction as a permit to defame her even more. His shady business practices were hit with a 400 million fine, which was then halved and then postponed. Same with the stormy Daniel's case: he's convicted for misusing election funds, but the sentence is delayed until after the election. In summary: if you can postpone the law until after you die, you're effectively above it.

And it's getting hard to raise a child with decent values and kindness when you see just about all the worst characteristics of a man just going free and play golf all day.

So no... I don't celebrate. But damn it... It would've been a consequence well deserved.
(there's also the old riddle: if you could go back in time, would you kill Hitler? There are more than a few parallels here, and it doesn't require a time machine)

Right, because if a bunch of crazies start attacking the government, they're going to sit there and NOT call in the big guns? Sorry, if some traitors are about to overthrow the government because they are butt hurt about something, they don't get treated with kid gloves.

Once again, bb shooters won't do much against drones.

You know, maybe all of that dangerous retrorocket from the Republicans and the Republicans trying to give everyone guns is a bad idea? Just because the NRA gives you money doesn't mean you should encourage people to kill others...

And of course MAGAts like Val the parrot are already stepping in 💩
Funny, I saw that same account on another page, but it was only 5 posts and 5 followers. Guess he's been busy even after being arrested.

I'm just glad they got him alive this time. He can squeal on the stand about how he loved Trump at first and was a loyal MAGA, and then felt he was betrayed by him. Maybe it'll help some people get out of the cult.

Oh you had to resort to ableist slur in your meltdown of a retort.

Given the things you choose to say you're the last person who should call others a "retard" given that you come off having an IQ 2 standard deviations below the mean and likely didn't finish school beyond the 9th grade.

Reevaluate your life you worthless racist piece of shit.

I like how his son has say that his dad despises trump but somehow people here want to say he is a republican. the giuy that donated 20 to democrats in 2020.

This is what Democrats violent rhetoric does
No one ever said Trump voters (which he was) were reasonable or rational people. Keep coping with your infighting.

The disgusting rhetoric by Democrats is to blame for all this. When you have the president saying stuff like this, it's no wonder one of the crazy Dem voters would do something like this.

Reminder that his user purposefully spreads misinformation. Please note that they almost exclusively use a video game forum for political posting now. User is either paid off or incredibly retarded

Ironically you are contributing to more of this divisive nonsense with your specious reasoning.

The fact is that yes, this shooter has heterodox political views, and has gone from voting and donating to Democrats, to Republicans and back again. The most important aspect of this story however is that a clearly unhinged, mentally ill person was radicalized through politics (and managed to very easily obtain an AK47) and looked to cause chaos because he is disturbed. The increased polarisation, blame game nonsense only makes things like this more likely to happen, and while I am glad Trump wasn't killed, this man is the chief architect of a lot of this division; it's literally his whole brand. A lot of right-wingers respond to something like this, basically to say that any criticism of Trump is dangerous or will lead to more violence. In fact, when a man so clearly has contempt for democracy, has openly admired dictators and authoritarians on multiple occasions and seems more comfortable with them than with allies, it is actually incumbent on Democrats to illustrate that gross incompetence and disgusting disregard for liberal ideals. It isn't encouraging violence to say Trump is a wannabe dictator, it is just accepting observable reality. And for the record, I was a Trump fan from 2016-2022.
