Yeah as Libby said, Milk and Donga are completely different people. Donga is quite an intelligent guy, I always feel he's quite bias in his opinions, but maybe intelligence equals accuracy, I don't know.

Yeah your first sentence presses that switch in my head that said I agree with your logic here, hadn't thought of it like that.

Libby's correct anyway.

Whilst the kid was a registered Republican, he had previously also donated to the democrats. Seems like a confused kid to me, added onto that the reports of school bullying which he suffered from.

Usually results in a damaged young man.

Ah, I see, makes sense now. I was sitting here thinking if you got the right dumb kid, he's going to follow whatever instruction he's given and not think through the consequences or not intelligent enough to care.

I think there's a psychological element to these things. When you know a larger than life character, like John Lennon, JFK, Donald Trump etc and they're killed, you expect the assassin to be a character, a huge individual. I think people often can't square away that an absolute nobody loser can snuff out the life of someone that is so big.

Mark Chapman, former Beatles fan who began to resent John Lennon, got a pistol hung around his hotel and had a pop. That's really it, the entire story. I think when people hear that they just have to find a deeper, bigger meaning to it.

So Donga is right but uses too many words to get there <laugh>

Btw when I'm saying Donga I'm chatting Prince Knut....why can't these fookers just stick to one name.

He didn't donate to the Democrats, that was a 69yr old from the same city that was also called Thomas Crooks.

Actblue, the organisation that he used to make the donation have records of the at the time 17 year old Thomas Crooks making the donation:

It is a matter of public record, it was a $15 donation.

If this is false, fair enough, but I can only go off reports.

We are sitting here discussing the idea that first, Donald Trump a narcassist, would risk his own life by placing a sniper rifle in the hands on any person on the planet with the idea they would graze his head with a bullet. Would you do that? I wouldn't.

Then, the second part of this hairbrained scheme, is to sacrifice a teenager to the political Gods.

All of this results in a 2% bumb in Trumps popularity and has so far had a neglible impact on the elections.

-unidentified poster- got tons of the facts wrong in his original post to you anyway, he's citing months old media reports which came about around 15 minutes after the event.

He wouldn't ... the ketchup sachet theory is more plausible ... and I would have totally dismissed that ... but there have been some rather intriguing snaps recently showing an apparently pristine lughole ...

Now they could just be earlier, pre-incident, snaps being posted by 'mischievous' conspiracy theorists etc... but one thing I can say for sure - his ear would not have healed completely in this relatively short time - my missus has had 2 ops now for perforated eardrums the first of which involved incisions into the ear cartilage... takes a lot longer to fully heal ...

I thought his political views were unclear..a registered republican but had donated to democrat organisations or something? Dunno I'm possibly misremembering.

I've read somewhere (sorry to be unspecific) that in both that case and in this latest one that those donations were made by people with the same name from the same state, but not them. For instance, one going around now that has been fact-checked is from a guy called Roth, not Routh. But this guy is not all there, that's for sure.

I think I can believe that someone would take a pop shot to the ear to improve his campaign, because I agree they are lunatics, but to give your own life is the bit that don't stack up for me (the shooter that is)....maybe they really are that crazy, but my brain trying to relate to that, well even I'm not that nuts.

The narcissistic profiles of assassins like Oswald, Earl Ray, Hinkley, and Chapman are off the scale. Very much like suicide bombers and Trump's inner circle of teeny-boppers like Taylor-Greene and Loomer.

Like I said and I said it during covid, why are we worrying about financial blackholes all of a sudden, no one gave a shhite during covid. That's stupid temporary PM we had crashed the economy for £50B, and Billions were stolen through PPE, so why not now spend billions to put shhite right, thought we were going to take this money from companies that are milking us, thought we were going to take this money from millionaire and billionaires, not take a mere £1B from the over 60's pension fund that aint going to be more than a sticky plaster, I thought we were done with sticky plaster politics, that's not blaming people, it's questioning the mentality, because that criminal that was released has just wasted even more down the drain with our sewage politics.

Always said that there's no way Trump would be involved in a scheme that saw his wig unravel and his bald pate exposed as they bundle him into a van. His vanity is just too much. The only iffy bit this attempt though is how the gunman knew he'd be there - he doesn't have published itinerary as he did when in office. Probably going to find out that this dude has been stalking his Florida golf club for weeks - and how that wasn't picked up on by the Secret service is alarming.
