To have grudging respect for how Trump styled it out

I mean someone tried to murder him, he came very close to having died. He went through a terrifying experience and came out saying fight and raising his fist in defiance. I think he’s an odious man but despite that, I have to concede a nod to that.

Let’s face it, if this had happened to Obama and he’d responded in the same way we’d all be like ‘woah, he the man!’

Note. This is not a genuine AIBU. I’m confident in my position on this but know so many people have so polarized themselves that they would rather eat their own eyeballs than find any small compliment or recognition for someone they hate.

I agree, I thought he handled it well.

And I am very much in the camp who thinks he's a terrifying narcissist who may bring about the end of democracy in America and / or world war 3.

Secret Service director Kimberly Cheatle to explain to the House on Monday what went wrong - should be interesting

Nigel Farage is his best friend they're both far right. I hope Americans make the right decision because the rest of the world is in their hands. Trump doesn't care he wants the fight he wants to be remembered in history books.

He shot 4 times and got his ear. How many more life's does Trump have. I would have had a heart attack.

No disagreement here @Teddybearpicniccelebration

I just feel the guy nearly died, whatever you think of him then assassination is bad for democracy, and he handled it pretty well,

At least now we have Harris on the ticket we have a non zero chance of beating him (not necessarily a very high chance but better).
