    Well, this event will definitely be exploited by Trump’s team and he will be strengthened. Just like happened with Bolsonaro and the stab.

    Unfortunately I think Trump will be reelected.

      Or we get a bunch of copycats.

      Biden gets shot. Trump gets shot.

      Future debate, Trump brags about how he got assassination attempts and Biden goes “No way Jose, I got assassination attempts too, bucko.”

      What a timeline.

          We really should ignore all the election politics and make this all about gun control. Paint Trump as a victim of the Second Amendment. Make it a whole sob story about how our democracy is under attack by guns.

            Trump enacted some of the first gun control since the assault weapons ban. I’m pretty sure he said something like take their guns first then justify it latter during the summer of unrest.

            He’ll do whatever, he’s got the morals of an alley cat
