@harding10B
I thought they were going with more prosecutions and more media hit pieces not additional assignation attempts. I think you the good guys need to pick a strategy and stick to it.
@foxythefox1264
Another one???
@DarkPesco
BS! This is a paid distraction from the humiliating debate Trump is suffering most from. No attempted elimination happened besides the attempted elimination of the truth!
@johngibson4641
More than likely just a made up conspired trump bullshit fake news story to try to get more votes as the last attempt on his life got him more people that felt sorry for him and will cast there vote for him as a compassionate vote and now that Kamalah Harris is in to get the top job (and i hope she does).
Im still bewildered that people still voted for him in the first time he was made president.
Its funny that he didnt go around saying that the election he won was all rigged and biased towards Hillary Clinton pfffttt ,, hahaha.
I mean with the huge amount of guns they have got in America it wouldnt matter where you were you would go you would hear a gun shot but i think in this case its more than likely just fake news from frump bandwagon hahaha.

The gun man was eating a dog and cat

"There were gunshots nearby me… in Florida… from about 500 yards away… It's not a rare occurrence around here, but I PROMISE it was directed at me! Trust me, America! Give me your money!"
@PlaystationGamerZX
Second time and sniper fail? Yeah Trump clearly hire them just to get more vote, making me believe this whole Assassination is fake
@joshflocchini5232
Starting to think some pretty evil people must not like him. Maybe he is a bigger threat to the elite..2 attempts in 2 months. For context it’s been 40 YEARS since an attempt. Media and their abhorrent coverage has definitely motivated deranged violence from the left..they need to be accountable
@shirleydrury5565
Bull SHIT!! Wake up people it’s all about votes!! So so sad👎👎👎
@lostchord3521
Ahhh shit here we go again – CJ
@brandy1999
Another fake attempt? How many are they gonna stage?
@AdalgizaPacheco-rl2jn
I'm afraid that's Part of the show of the US ellections. Trump Knows he's got no chance against Kamala Harris albeit he is owned by the jews' and therefore is 'the other', though that's that, he is 'the other'
@joekavanagh7171
Have you noticed that every time Trump is struggling and needs a boost, an attempt is made on his life? Hmmm
@DickyKnee
What will keep us safe from trump 🤔. He’s a narcissist ! Great Americans won’t vote trump

Someone hates low interest rates affordable housing food they can afford or jobs staying home rather than going abroad or the sane thought like men and woman are different not the same gender. You know logical thinking
@johnthomas6651
I don't get this all these assination attempts happening in Trump country in republican held states. Secondly who use a AK 47 for an sniper rifle when 30/06 deer rifles are the most common and used sniper rifle ever plus every one has them because it's the south every damn body deer hunt. 300 to 500 yards are chip shots wtf
