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

[mumofoneAloneandwell]

Surely he's not pulling this trick again?

I think if what some are calling for happened did it probably wouldn’t improve much as Vance and those who still do support Trump would react pretty wildly.

I agree about the mid-terms. There are some clauses which allow them to be cancelled, including America being at war. He's either going to drag out the Iran conflict or start a new one, like in Greenland. He's been plotting it since January.

Where have I demanded validation?

I’m just pointing out your violent rhetoric. I am not asking you to like him or to get in line with American policy. It is entirely within your power to do things differently.

"A civilization will die tonight ", listing himself as president of Venezuela on Wikipedia, threatening to take Greenland by force, suggesting the US should invade Canada.... yeah sure, he just wants America.

Fortunately sentiment is turning and a proportion of his followers now view him, literally, as the antichrist.

Interestingly, he's already commented that this is why he needs a ballroom in the Whitehouse, so security can be tightened.

I don't support anyone being shot in any circumstance but you have to admit that 3 near misses on the same person is quite weird..

@RingoJuiceWhat do you say about the people who say Alex Pretti deserved to die?

When you post on here, day after day, sharing your perspective - despite it being pretty clear that nobody values it.

When you expect us to #BeKind to the man you support, who threatens us.

I'm not espousing violent rhetoric (that's more your president's thing) - but if you want ThoughtsAndPrayers then you're barking up the wrong tree.

I don’t think it is when you consider access to guns, MH, SM whipping people up. If you’re seeing do it posts on mumsnet on a Sunday morning then there’s going to be some people who will be unwell enough or other to try.

I hope the King now uses this as a valid reason to cancel his state visit.

@RingoJuice
And when did he give a shiny shit about domestic matters?
The prices have been going up constantly since the beginning of his term due to his idiocy. First he started the nonsense with the tariffs on/off on/off. Now the war and the Straits closed/open closed/open.
I live more than 3000 miles from US and yet my life is affected negatively by Trump every day. Nowadays I cannot go to a petrol station without saying “fuck you Trump” each time. My gas and electricity will be more expensive because of Trump. There is a talk of food shortages. All of this because of one nutter in the White House.
There are some people who must be grateful for Trump though. Canadian Liberals for one. They were on their way out and now are firmly in power thanks to Trump. Hungarians are also grateful for Trump’s support of Orban. They finally got rid of him.

I prefer that you do not incite violence. Or DARVO a man that has been unnecessarily targeted for assassination (he will be leaving office in less than three years)

It will only change when enough Americans hurt in the wallet more than they presently do.
At the moment some fans ( and that is the right word), who are a bit more than voters really, will believe anything, and justify anything he says and does.

Trump is just part of a team. He is the figurehead. But the power behind and pulling the strings are elsewhere. It really is not all Trump calling the shots if you will excuse the expression. When he runs out of prepared lines to say he rambles.

America will only wake up though I fear when it is too late.
He said nobody need worry as they won’t ever have to vote again. I believed him then and I believe him still.

I’m counting the days.

And I'd prefer you didn't repeatedly lie by suggesting I incite violence.

Another shit shot shooter 🙄

In 99% of the cases, I am against political assassinations, even those of politicians that I disagree with. I was against the first attempt on Trump and the one of Charlie Kirk. However, since going into power, Trump has killed thousands of people and done an extreme amount of damage in the political scene. Because of this, I wouldn’t be sad if he was killed anymore.

"Unneccessarily targeted" you are hilarious 😂

Same

the security was awful

The King has been unwell. How and why he should be subjected to a visit to Trump and America I do not know.

And you do not blame the Tories for nixing the drive to build nuclear power plants, or to exploit fracking all those years ago?

No, just do nothing and blame events beyond your control, do nothing that’s actually within your control to secure fossil fuel access, the very basis of your daily life.

As for the US, spike in oil prices is definitely a challenge but the higher prices also makes it
more profitable for the oil industry to drill reserves that weren’t really profitable before. But yeah, it won’t happen before the midterms. Sucks but the Democrats aren’t very supportive of the fossil fuel industry in the first place, so you cannot expect them
to be any help in this aspect

This. I would never wish death on anyone under normal circumstances, but I'll happily make an exception for Trump. The man is evil and has done/enabled/turned a blind eye to some terrible things. It's utterly grotesque that he was ever able to get into the position of power he's in in the first place.

You're actually invoking DARVO to get sympathy for Trump? DARVO is used by abusers to avoid accountability. Meanwhile Trump is the most prolific abuser of civil rights in the Western world, ordering his ICE agents to snatch parents and children from their homes and put them in detention centres.

This is my thinking. If it isn't staged (and it does sound far-fetched) then it's inconceivable that three people are such terrible shots in a country so renowned for loving guns.

Amazing President glad he's ok. Absolute nut job lefties on this place again I see upset he wasn't killed. You are not the good guys!

Cannot wait till Reform win in UK and you all have mental breakdowns 😂
