'Trump rushed from White House correspondents' dinner after suspected gunshots heard'

Sure and you could say things just shy of ‘wish he was dead, they should have better aim’

How is that gonna help? You have legitimate concerns, maybe the US alliance isn’t working for you, these are all within the scope for discussion. This? This is not ok

I lived in the UK, am married in so to speak, still post now and again. I guess you can try to get me ‘deported’ from your website if you wish.

But I think a voice from a typical American could help you get a grip though? But maybe not.

Like if you don’t want to hear from Americans like myself, maybe don’t post about Trump or participate in such threads

I know . It’s a shame this forum has been taken over by some of societies sickest individuals.

Given he's trying to drag other countries into wars he started and crying about it when we don't do what he wants, and the economic crises that he has created, the UK and the world generally do have a valid interest in the US presidency.

Says the American who is posting - and posts endlessly - on a British based website arguing the America-First agenda.

Honestly, why are you even here? Why does our reaction concern you?

Then maybe you should focus on the UK instead of being distracted by America. Plenty of work to be done there, believe me, I lived there and you REALLY should be focusing on British matters instead of focusing on the American head of state

So let’s get this straight.

He turns up to the first correspondent’s dinner in years. His team and cronies are talking about “shots being fired” (Leavvitt) and telling people to be safe.

There’s a shooter in the reception.

Everyone now uses this to justify trump building his ballroom at the White House.

Aye, okay Donald.

Think of the response as "Britain First".

I voted for him and support him (but not all things he does, that’s just not possible)

I don’t think I deserve to die just because I want millions of illegals to be removed from my homeland.

And I don’t like rockets lobbed over my head by Iran, which I was literally dealing with last month. IN A THIRD COUNTRY WHICH NEVER ATTACKED IRAN BTW

The entire world is “leftist” in @RingoJuice’s book. Unbelievable that anyone would boast about being further right than Trump.

I think it’s repugnant when people actively want another human being to be shot dead. I can just about stretch to understanding it when it’s a serial killer or similar but not someone who they simply disagree with politically. I don’t like the guy or his views, ditto Farage but I wouldn’t wish either of them dead.

As for this situation, I find it sad looking at the shooter’s background. What an intelligent and accomplished young man.

I am really shocked at the comments wishing death on somebody because of their political views. That is appalling. When I don’t agree with a politician I don’t wish them to be murdered. Have people in the UK forgotten David Amis and Jo Cox. If trump were to be assassinated it would be a disaster, the ramifications would be huge civil/global unrest, leading to god knows what. Biden was far worse and people didn’t call for him to be killed. People calling fro trumps death need to get a grip.

@RingoJuice

So it was leftists who were behind the 6th January violence?
It was the leftists who kidnapped the Venezuelan president?
It was the leftists who attacked Iran, killed its leader and bombed innocent children?
It was the leftists who sent ICE to threaten and in more than case kill people?
It is the leftists who are threatening to take Greenland?

You don’t need to be a leftist to be against this horrid dangerous individual. Even hard core Republicans like Cheney realised how dangerous and harmful for the USA Trump was and endorsed Harris.
Anybody who has conscience and empathy is against what Trump is doing.

I would love for Trump to be gone from the office tomorrow and will not be a tiny bit sad when he dies one day. I will also not be sad when Putin is gone. The world will certainly be a better place without them.

However, I do not think that him being assassinated would be a good thing. He would become a martyr to those right wing extremists who still support him. And that might lead to another election win for MAGAs. Also US would get JD Vance for the rest of the term and he is even worse.

Thomas Crooks was a registered republican who was a keen hunter. Not sure that makes him a leftist. 🤷‍♀️. Sounds more MAGA oriented to me.

What news channel do you watch? Just out of interest.

Because leftists glorify political violence. Even on this thread you can see them.

I am actually more right-wing than Trump in most respects. So I feel threatened by them
too. They’d kill me without a second thought and brand themselves virtuous.
