rgmwa Posted July 27 Share Posted July 27 Latest definitive statement from the FBI as reported in the SMH: “What struck former President Trump in the ear was a bullet, whether whole or fragmented into smaller pieces, fired from the deceased subject’s rifle,” the agency said in a statement. So it was definitely a bullet but possibly a fragment. Mystery solved. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the final washup, that statement is sums up the evidence a Trial would have heard had the shooter been brought to Trial. Clearly the motive of the shooter was to injure someone. Wouldn't it be ironic if the shooter was trying to even the score with some from the local area and whom the shooter knew would be at the rally. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
red750 Posted July 27 Share Posted July 27 I said Trump would do away with the "four year term, max two terms" rule in the constitution and was told there was no way.

kgwilson Posted July 27 Share Posted July 27 If he gets in and makes good on that promise civil war is pretty much a certainty. Then again just add that to his 30,573 lies the last time he was in. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Latest I've heard on motive is that the shooter possibly just wanted to make as big a spectacle as possible. He'd been researching school shooters, was bullied all through school, etc - the classic profile of a mass shooter. Killing Trump would have caused the biggest news in the world, so that was possibly his goal. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

old man emu Posted July 30 Share Posted July 30 Trump's nephew, Fred who is the son of Trump's elder brother and Mary's brother, just told the People what an absolute arsehole Donald is towards the close members of the Trump family. Fred Jnr has a severely disabled son who has been getting financial support from some sort of Trump controlled Trust Fund. When Trump was in Office, Fred was lobbying Trump for support for people with extreme disability. Trump's response was that people like that should just die. (Deja Vu of Hitler's attitude to the same people?) Later when the Trust Fund was running low, Fred asked Trump to allocate some more money. Trump's response? "He (Fred's son) doesn't even recognise you. He should just die." No money was forthcoming. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
willedoo Posted July 31 Share Posted July 31 The net favourable rating of Trump's running mate JD Vance has gone from minus 6 to minus fifteen in the space of a week. Meanwhile, Trump's appearance at the National Association of Black Journalists in Chicago didn't go too well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

old man emu Posted August 1 Share Posted August 1 The titles on the videos that are coming to me via the YouTube algorithm are suggesting that Trump is becoming a laughing stock as people watch his attempts to garner support from the Silent Majority. However, what I get might be one-sided because I don't look at pro-Trump MAGA stuff and the algorithm doesn't throw up things that you don't normally look at. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marty_d Posted August 2 Share Posted August 2 As annoying as it is that the fool is still alive, I think it would be better for American democracy if he lives and soundly loses the next election, than be a martyr to his rabid followers who would probably have rampaged and broken it fully if he had been killed. If he fades into obscurity (he'll always have the gong for worst US president ever), then hopefully his influence will fade too. If he were shot at the height of his blustering and rabble-rousing then his name would go down as the patron saint of the republican party. Of course, if he wins the election that's possibly the worst outcome. Followed by a VERY close loss which causes more uprisings. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rgmwa Posted August 2 Share Posted August 2 Even if he loses, unless it's in a clear landslide which is probably unlikely, he will again say the election was rigged and stolen. His followers will believe him and he won't go quietly. On the other hand if he wins, chances are it will be due to his cronies in the swing states who have been plotting in the background for months and who WILL have rigged the outcome in his favour. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
willedoo Posted August 2 Share Posted August 2 Like a case of piles, he won't be easy to get rid of. If he loses this election, at the 2028 election he will be the same age as Biden would have been going into the 2024 election, so if his health holds it will be like a stuck record. The only thing is that if he loses two elections in a row, his star might start to fade in the Republican Party. But not if If it's a close call and they maintain the stolen election claim. In that case, the legend will continue to grow in their small, confused minds. The other alternative is that he wins the election, the world suffers the fool for another four years, then he can't run again. If that happens, he will still have a lot of sway over the Republican Party beyond 2028, but the next candidate wouldn't have the god/rock star status of Trump. In that case it would be up to the Democrats to beat them on policy. I think it will be a lot of years before the Republican Party returns to it's former self as it was before the crazies hijacked the party. The Republican Party of Reagan and the like is unrecognisable in this current crop of fruit loops. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe that a person can't serve three consecutive terms, but if there is a gap, then the count starts afresh. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
