Am I the only one who thinks Trumps assassination attempts were a set up ?

I dunno I genuinely think Trump is either unhinged enough or stupid enough to set up two association attempts in order to try win the election ? Anyone else ?

I think an "assassin attempt" is a win win for him. One. His
Popularity was flagging slowly and he wanted to get back in news again TICK

Two. The SS reassert their authority in catching snipers. TICK

Three. If he decides in a few weeks he defo isn't gonna win and wants to drop out two attempts on his life give him a good excuse

I think it was defo a set up. I'd be watching the gunman's family and make sure they don't suddenly win the lottery and
I'd be interested to see how his trial goes.

He is truly unhinged, but I find it hard to believe that he would stoop so low. Someone died in the first assassination attempt.
