Thanks for the outlink to WaPo's posting of Allen's "manifesto". That communique is measured, logical, articulate, self-aware and empathetic ... in other words, the diametric opposite of every proclamation, posting and utterance made by President Pedo Pal and his administration.
One cannot avoid the impression that it's the writing of someone far better suited for the office of the President of the United States than the current occupant.
The chances of the attacker at the correspondent's dinner being successful were slim to none, I am concerned that Trump's action in Iran may lead to a more well planned and dangerous terrorist event Donnie may have really stirred up a hornet's nest, and now there are angry hornets about. I can't say that I have that much confidence in the people at DHS, nor can I recommend giving them even more authority. Proverbial rock and a hard place.
Wait, wait, I thought all this MAGA men were supposed to be able to "hold the line," not either hide behind their wives or leave them in the dust as they race away? So disappointed.
Unlikely that this was staged. First, they would have tried to choose someone who’s some combination of non-white, gay, Muslim, atheist, or socialist. Second, the administration lacks the intelligence to even make a bowel movement.
"At the same time, hate it when people who traffic in propaganda and conspiracy theories wake up one day and nobody believes their official stories either!"
This. You can't be 24 hour-liars to the public and cry wolf on matters big and small for years and then complain about people not believing you.
After every event like this, he goes though a high where he imagines he's popular. All of the usual sycophants double down and not only kiss his ass, they kiss both cheeks. It warms both his cockles and his wattles.
As with most things, he fails to get the larger point. In this instance, it's that he's vastly unpopular. The ratio of like vs dislike isn't changing much, but the depth of the dislike is deepening daily. There's a vast pool of seething disdain which breeds extreme people.
He could turn things around fairly quickly by not being an asshole, but that's not an option for a lifelong narcissistic sociopath.
It probably wasn't staged ... But the only argument I have against this being staged like a Linda McMahon WWE story is - how could they have gotten the guy to do it? Was he promised a pardon as Trump leaves office (trump will pretend to be magnanimous since no one got seriously injured) and is there $10,000,000 sitting somewhere in a bank account for him?
The only part of this that’s funnier than the wire service photos of a bunch of press hacks standing around not knowing what to do during a potential mass shooting in progress is Trump asking other press hacks he thinks are his friends why Vance got escorted away before him.
It seems odd that many mass shooters, would be assassins, and other assorted mayhemers come out of nowhere. No criminal records to speak of, no deep involvement in radical groups, etc. I also notice that many of them are gamers, Strap those tinfoil hats on kiddies, are post hypnotic suggestions embedded in online games?
"No deep involvement in radical groups," because they don't look closely for those or admit far-right/incel groups count. Doesn't apply in this case, but does in most others.
There are no subliminal messages in games. Online games have little to no community moderation, which makes them an ideal environment to radicalize people. That's not the game or the content of the game, that's just groomers finding places they can operate in without being monitored.
The people who push far right ideology online. Pick a hate group, they've got people who spend their days online recruiting. It's tolerated because they also vote Republican, when they vote, and most aren't actually going to commit violence.
A less crazy concept than post hypnotic suggestion, but the end result similar. Ideally prompting people of left leaning politics to action, , thereby making increased executive and police power an imperative to protect us!
I gotta say, those alpha males on the right are such white knights aren’t they? Real protectors of women. We’re a long way from Air Force One where Harrison Ford insisted his wife and daughter get taken to safety first.
At least Naziferatu bravely shielded his wife’s boob with his hand.
Just because they're stupid, doesn't mean they're not clever.
There are entire Government Departments of experienced dirty tricksters at their disposal.
The most highly funded dirty tricksters and ratfuckers in history.
Trump, again, got what he thought he needed, at the perfect venue for maximum Trump.
Reality has been getting in the way occasionally, but it's all stagecraft.
A fiction. All of it.

Besides, his manifesto makes too much sense.

The president gets shot at and the whole nation says, "well, that's convenient for him."

Twenty 6 year olds gunned down at school.
GOP: Thoughts and Prayers. Price of freedom. 🤷♂️
One gunman rushes through security at a rich elite party.
GOP: this is why we need a ballroom with 7 inch glass!
Before they build a secure ballroom at the White House, they should put one in every school.

Miller exiting the scene. Such an instinctive display of male MAGA courage.
He took his first chance to palm a tit since Katie met Elon. Every incel would do the same.
So is he sporting half a Kotex on an ear today?

I know that I feel a desperate primal urge to eat steaks when I play survival building games.
See!

Going with that, who are the "groomers"?
