We can stop bullshitting any time now.
They would still violate the constitution and install him as dictator for life well before voting for even the most right wing Democrat.

MAGA flocks to conspiracy theories like bees to honey only now they’re starting to wonder if the hive’s been lying to them the whole time.

The shooter was real and killed a person in the audience. The story that Trump was shot/grazed by a bullet is fake. He cut his ear on something when the Secret Service pulled him down.

I’ve been hearing about his base turning against him for like 10 years. When is it supposed to actually happen?
albiondave on
Staged? No. Clash of heads, spots of blood and a pretend bullet wound that healed with no visible scar? Yes, that’ll be why its not dwelled on, mentioned or seriously investigated.
Totally believe he was shot AT.
Romantic_Piscean on
I’m not MAGA, and I think there was an actual shooting and somebody died. I also think it was staged as a photo op, Trump cut his ear, I know cartilage doesn’t grow back, the situation was manipulated for political gain, and the shooter and his story was disappeared in such a manner that raises a lot of questions. Conspiracy theory exists where we only know some 96% and what’s unknown doesn’t exactly line up easily. That shooting in Pennsylvania doesn’t exactly line up.
P.S. Neither does the Reichstag Fire in 1933 Germany and look where that took the world.

One conspiracy theory after another
Decent_Head1345 on
I can’t think of another conspiracy theory I believe in except the extremely broad “Aliens probably exist somewhere,” but the Trump thing?
I dunno, man. A guy got close enough to the former president with very little effort to shoot at him? Then he gets killed, almost nothing about him is released to the public despite being the most successful would-be presidential assassin in decades, and then Trump’s ear heals completely practically overnight?
I mean c’mon…

Although it’s nice seeing the cult turn on him I have little doubt that they’re just going to worship the next deranged sociopath Republicans put in charge
MAGAts aren’t good people in any way and will always choose the worst options

There is a video circulating of another camera angle after the shooting making it clear that photographers were brought into position and flag lowered on crane to get those perfect “FIGHT” pictures.
That video makes it very clearly appear staged ahead of time.
Does anyone have a refutation against that video’s validity?

Make sure you screenshot all your family/relatives who are going to try and fumble-fuck their way back into good social grace…no fucking chance.

I mean his “base” should know what a 5.56 cal does to things. Come on man he didn’t get shot. But the poor innocent man who was simply attending the rally did.
tvmediaguy on
The photo opportunity was obviously staged. You can see them ushering people into place. Lowering the flag. Keeping people and photogs EXACTLY where they needed to be to catch the photo. Then… no investigation into this kid. It all just disappears overnight. Should be a huge story and … ane it all vanishes. A man died and so did the shooter…. So… that’s where it becomes complicated. But… when I realize trump wouldn’t even think twice of killing a man to ensure his victory…. It makes me believe it even more.
BigHungryFlamingo on
It was pretty obvious once the second camera angle came out showing a full-blown WWE-style stunt show.
And these people plastered diapers onto their ears like a bunch of zombies. Yuck. Traitors.

I always question why, if he was JUST shot at, did the secret service hoist him up on their shoulders?

Such is life when you cultivate a base out of the dumbest conspiracy theory loving motherfuckers in the country

I’ll believe that MAGA are turning against Trump when Fox News and the other right-wing infotainment channels start actively covering all his failures without making excuses for him.
ShumaG on
His approval ratings are still higher than after Jan 6th. This is objectively not true. At best the sentence that “cracks” have formed are true.
loki2113 on
Really all you need to do is watch the video where the secret service doesn’t even attempt to rush Trump off the stage while an American flag gets raised behind him with photographers being ushered to the front and that one rally where someone just yelled “Allahu Akbar!” and Trump gets scared and starts to run before realizing there is no danger
They guy literally killed one of his supporters (likely on accident but still) for a campaign stunt
Darkfigure145 on
I truly believe they knew it was going to happen in advance and thanks to there incompetence the shooter almost succeeded.
No way the shooter could get that close and also when Secret Service is pulling Trump down they just let him stop to do a fight pose. Draft dodging Trump was brave enough to do a pose? Not knowing if the shooter is going to take another shot? No way.
Libinky on
If it was a fake and I think that’s likely, what about those that died or were injured? Any follow up on them?

I keep hearing this.
They vote the same regardless

I’ll believe it when I see it reflected in actual election results. Until then this is all distraction that causes the left to disengage thinking a win is in the bag.

IMO, it won him the election.

Once the conspiracy theorists turn on him he really is toast. They are the linch pin of his base.
gumercindo1959 on
I’ll wager that it’s a real minority of folks that are turning on him. All the MAGAts I know are “forever trump” kind of fans.

The pussiest fucker to walk the earth gets up, and secret service lets him and screams fight! Fight! Fight! It is so obvious it was staged

My dad just texted me about this because it was about this time last year where I pointed out how bizarre the details of that shooting is/was. For me, at the end of the day, as someone who has used that very weapon many times, how the hell did he miss? Iron sights and 8 shells at that range and angle should have been more than enough to hit your target. Instead, he hit some poor dude in the background that we all forgot about? It begs the question as to whether the shooter was even trying to hit him in the first place.
I got the whole “Oh, you just have TDS…” etc. Yeah, TDS or not, I have actually shot things at that distance with iron sights, and I am not that much of a marksman. Fast forward, how do I not know every single detail of the shooter’s life? Why did the media move on so quickly? Why was there another shooting of a prominent conservative where there are an equal number of questions and weirdnesses? Are we really going with it is a ‘miracle’ that Trump wasn’t hurt worse than he was (but not a miracle for Corey Comperatore) AND it is a ‘miracle’ that a standard 30-06 didn’t nearly decapitate someone hit in the neck from 130 meters. Lots of miracles here…

I’ll believe it when they stop voting Republican.

Remember also when the secret service was helping him get up and off the stage, Trump was saying to them “wait, wait” before he stopped to raise his fist to the crowd. That was definitely choreographed

My grandfather at Trumps age would nick himself shaving and it would take a year to heal, but Trump loses part of his ear cartilage and it’s reconstructed with a few weeks?
