Not enough are available!!!! Are you serious or we take this as a parody?

 

That picture of Trumps would be assassin ffs Looks like an incel meme

 

Shows the potential range of the “incel” meme because I thought the same about the guy who plotted those horrible things with Holly Willoughby as the target. Even though that term is extremely overused at the moment

 

Yep, i'm inclined to believe that it's a lone nutter that did it.

 

Nah it’s fake mate. Trump set it up so he wins the election he was probably going to win anyway

 

Ear ear

 

Do you think the secret service said "Donald duck"?

 

The best outcome of this, if there is any best, would be for Biden and Trump to start building bridges, to start softening their tone on a range of issues, but they won't as their game is all about power!!!

 

Haven’t some Republican politicians come out and either said or implied Biden ordered a hit. That’s not softening the tone. They have much laxer slander laws over there from what I understand

 

Biden ordering a hit so as to reduce his chances of beating Trump. That makes sense but only to the right wing lunatic fringe.

 

But Trump could easily be dead now, but I agree, trying to make political capital from it is disgusting, devisive and very dangerous.

 

And from what I understand among the mainstream American politicians it’s one side that is trying to make political capital. Unless you call expressing shock and concern to the victim as making political capital - which I don’t. At least not compared to trying to claim that it was ordered

 

Yes, you’re right. The democrats are the only ones trying to score points here.

Their divisive and hateful rhetoric caused it, and now they’re trying to capitalise on it all. Disgusting

 

You are barking

 

You really don’t have any reading comprehension do you? It’s quite embarrassing actually. You deliberately misread and cherry pick comments.

It’s just trolling but well done it works. Most trolls are more clever because they don’t need to just lie about what people have said. But your trolling is definitely effective

But just in case you really are that stupid - the democrat politicians have sent positive condolence messages and the republicans have sent divisive and slandering ones. But I said that first time and you did your usual smooth brained thing of just ignoring it and clipping part of a quote.

You do realise everyone can see the whole thing I wrote? So you quoting a small portion to make it mean something else is just idiotic

Have you moved to the US yet? Join up with your cult. Because this country is ****ed and in your world it is only going to get worse now that we have (checks notes) a sensible government in place who doesn’t want to steal public money to give to their mates. I don’t like the idea of moving to America because of the infection of the MAGA cult and the travesty that is their healthcare system. But you seem completely on board with that based on your posts.

 

It’s either weapons grade ignorance or a truly staggering level of cognitive dissonance. And of course a firm belief in “alternative facts” (haven’t heard that one in a while)

Another fascinating point that wasn’t brought up earlier - when it was revealed the guy was a Republican there were all sorts of denials and excuses made. But if he had been revealed to be a registered Democrat we all know what the response would have been. No excuses or explanations. It would have been accepted at face value and weaponised. But brazen hypocrites are going to carry on being brazenly hypocritical

 

Here is an article about the inflammatory language used by one if the presidential candidate and the damage it has caused.
