Honestly, with the RNC just days away, and the DNC not far behind, in what is sure to be one of the most contentious elections in modern history, I couldn't imagine a more politically charged moment to pull something what was attempted last night off. What do you think we would be seeing from the left and right political leadership, as well as the left and right masses?

Thank God he wasn't

I can't even comprehend what it would be like and how things would proceed from here if this assassination attempt had been successful

Either way,

Any leftists idiots going to protest the RNC is a bad idea. Emotions and tempers are at an all time high.
I can't imagine what chaos would be unfolding has this idiot been successful in his assassination attempt.

This came up briefly yesterday when the first news hit. Brokered convention. Ron DeSantis would likely be the man.

There would be retaliation. It would be chaos. Stock market tank bigly too

We were an inch or two away from mass unrest.

It's what our overlords want because they know that their puppet can't win without killing Trump.

I hate to agree with Alex Jones, but I think they're going to do the same thing with Biden and of course it'll be a "MAGA extremist" that does it

Would the Right storm cities and burn down federal building like the Left's foot soldiers?

No!

The Right isn't allowed to do that consequence free.

It is an act of God that Trump is alive. Like George Washington, Trump is a legend who's life was spared by God. I hope he gets America back on track.

The stock market would have sold off hard on Monday and may still do so. Lots of freedom loving people would be irate and nearly inconsolable in their rage. Things are already a powder keg just looking for that spark.

I am interested in what the futures market is going to look like tonight.

This is my worry. They try to kill off biden and use this as their cover. And then all hell will break loose.

We are in perilous times. A tinder box waiting to explode.

Be calm everyone.

I don't even want to think about what would happen if he was successful. I just thank the Almighty that he wasn't.

He moved his head a second before the shot

Def divine intervention

today would be a dark day for america
by the grace of god we have hope

I think a lot of people see the upcoming election as the chance to overcome the cheating in 2020. Take that from them via assassination and i think they would resort to violence that would not be containable. There would be retaliations on any leftist that came up for air long enough to be targeted. Media, local politicians, anyone that has acted as a mouthpiece in the past. It could rage out of control for a very long time.

Hopefully Trump has a recorded message that could have been played at the convention that would announce his successor. "In the event of my assassination, I want nothing more than for Vivek to pick up the torch and carry on as the nominee. Hes a great man and I have complete faith that he will be able to carry forward with the task of backing America great again!"

The Trump loyalists would have a hard time rallying behind someone they thought was capitalizing on Trump's murder, and only with Trump's endorsement do I see them joining behind a DeSantis like candidate for the general.

Naming a successor? Who are we...North Korea? They would have to either run a quick primary or count votes and figure out who came in second.

Had that discussion with the wife...

DeSantis would certainly win the presidency in a landslide... and we'd have him substituted for "literal hitler" within the year.

These diluted leftists don't realize how big of puppets they are on this...

How do you think VPs are born?! The presidential candidate announces their prospective successor.

Any process which considers handing the nomination to Nicki Halley on the technicality that she kept wasting money longer than the other "also ran" is DOA.

I think that the Dems/Libs would be celebrating and throwing parties in the streets of the large Blue Cities.

It will be disgusting and lots of fights will break out as the Dems/Libs would be trying to rub it in our faces. There would be violence across the country.

CNN and MSNBC will try to act like adults but the smirks on their faces would be obvious. I do not want to even imagine what those *****es on The View would say.

Setting aside nobody should be rooting for death of political enemies for political reasons, an actual murder of either major party candidate would get to a real bring of mass chaos we haven't seen since cival war. Thank God that **** for brains missed.

Shudder to think about it

Like when two men were in a fox hole in war and a shell hits…. One lives, the other dies. God has a plan. So does Satan. God gives us the ability to make decisions…. That shooter had, at that last millisecond before making that trigger break a decision….. God allows humans to do that. By Gods plan it was not Trumps time. Just like in the fox hole. We don't have the capability to understand all the answers.

Naive questions incoming...

Did they announce the caliber of the rounds? All I had heard was it "sounds like a 22".

IF it was a 22, would that have been enough to kill him if it had hit his skull? My expertise doesn't go behind using a 22 for rabbit and snake hunting when I was in 5th grade and old kids laughing at me when I asked if I could go hog hunting with them with it.

Dems would be dancing in the streets.

Any Republican candidate could easily beat Biden at this point. What good is killing Trump at this point if Biden would lose against any warm body?

Thats ******ed. This isn't a monarchy. If Trump had been assassinated, the convention probably would have been delayed a bit, but once it convened, it would have been a true open convention with only a few delegates pledged to anyone on the first ballot.

If it ever comes to that, we need to take it to a point where they realize that maybe it's wasn't what they wanted.

It was most likely a .223 or 5.56

He would've been dead it the bullet was an inch or more to the right

I thought he died because he had a cold, and the doctor thought draining a ton of his blood would be a good fix, and he died.

For the useful idiots, you're right.

For the bigger establishment, it's never been about the man, and always been about making an example of an outsider and trying to keep him in his place so that no one else ever dares to challenge them.

It's always been much bigger than Trump.

Doesn't matter, Trump survived thank God and now A LOT of people are pissed and voting for Trump who weren't before

That was from a lib on here that was sure it was a .22 or a bb gun to downplay the severity.

Not sure what they're laughing about. You can definitely kill a hog with a .22. May not drop it immediately, but if you shoot it virtually anywhere in the body, it will eventually die. Gut shot takes time, but it's a horrible death.
