Secret Service rushes Trump off stage after shots fired at his Pennsylvania rally
The former president had just started the event.
You're viewing a single thread.
The speed at which he was turned into a hero and merchandise was made is a testament to the efficiency and responsiveness of capitalism.
Alibaba has already gone crazy with it lmao it's so funny
Yep, the person who did this is an idiot. They don't realize all they did was help his cause and give him that much stronger of a chance of winning presidency.
I mean, they probably don't realize anything anymore given that they had bullets actually go through them.
Liberals still believe in Great Man Theory.
If he died, another would take his place and wins for sure as revenge.
Now that he lived, he has excellent PR.
Biden is constantly taking Ls with his voterbase, like pursuance of Genocide and general brain melting.
Trump is constantly on the rise with his voterbase.
This is why Adventurism doesn't work, and why Leftists need to join an org like PSL and work towards building dual power.
Sure but his replacement wouldn't be him, so at least some harm would have been avoided that way, but you're right. It would have been much better if this never happened.
Yes and no. We have no crystal ball, ultimately the material conditions for fascism are still present in the US, and they will not go away even with 10 straight DNC victories. America is a dying Empire, so reactionary thinking, trying to turn the clock back, is on the rise.
Leftism must become the status quo to survive fascism.
There would be some harm reduction, yes, and I would have probably celebrated had Trump been popped, but his replacement would be just as bad, merely delayed.
If they wanted to help the democrats, they shot the wrong candidate
Literally true, Trump was handed the best PR on a silver platter, and even if he croaked his replacement has a sure win.
Not if he didn't miss.Actually, I guess the democrats would lose either way. It would have only prevented Trump from winning (which many people would probably say is a good thing, but for many it would still not be enough of course), not ensuring the democrats win. So yeah, you're right.
Are you kidding? The only things in this universe capable of superluminal speeds are a good rumor and merchandising opportunities
Also monarchy. You guillotine a king and the monarchy instantly jumps to the next one.
That's probably why being a crown prince in medieval times was more hazardous than a bering strait crab fisherman running for president of the United States
Actually it was very very safe, if you compare it with peasants or burghers with occupational hazard being very low. Well, unless you were an Ottoman prince.
