    False flag. Am I doing it right?

    I tuned in to CNN. Briefly, during a rally, some shots were probably heard and the Secret Service rushed Trump off the stage. He may have been injured. The video shows what may be blood on the side of his head but he was fist pumping the crowd as he was getting taken off the stage. Prepare for endless victim-status-claiming by the right wing news media - a combination of "Trump is the manliest man ever" and "Trump is the biggest victim ever, so unfair".

    Personally, I'd be fine with an assassination - the Supreme Court is making sure that he can't be held accountable by normal means.

    Based on the picture in the Telegraph, looks like there is blood on the felonious fascist's face. Of course, that could have been from things other than a bullet.

    How would someone get a gun into a Trump rally? Obviously a false flag.

    Looked like he got grazed. Right at the sound of the first shot, he grabbed his ear.

    Watching the video…I’m pretty damn sure he got shot. He grabbed his ear shortly after you heard the first pops.

    Welp, unless it's proven beyond reasonable doubt that this is a false flag or done by an alt-right neonazi, the orange turd is gonna win.

    I suppose democracy was kinda fun while it lasted.

    Yeah, worst case scenario this could be the start of a civil war. The election cycle is bound to get more violent now.

    I hope not. I prefer official acts that successfully kill their target.

    we'll be seeing a lot of this image, I expect.

    no word yet on who might've fired the shots and if anybody saw anything. I wonder if it came from outside the venue, someone with a scope?

    Occam's Razor.

    The GOP Convention starts this week -- this is to set the stage. For someone who wet himself when an eagle flapped its wings next to him, this sort of behavior is almost comical.

    However, I am willing to withhold judgment until all the facts are in.

    If there was indeed a shooter who winged Trump on the ear, then "A" for effort, "F" for execution. Dude, take some shooting lessons. FFS.
