    I find it more likely in a country where anyone can have a gun that someone got shot at for being an arsehole.

    Trump is the world biggest narcissist, never rule out any plan to get him attention/popularity.

    Now I'm not typically a conspiracy theorist type, but I do question how they 'knew' so quickly that it was OK for Trump to get back up.

    Even IF word was confirmed so quickly that that guy had been shot (and how did they get him so quickly if he's 130-150 metres away?), how were they 'sure' there was only 1 person involved? How couod they be so certain it was now 'safe', just seconds after the initial shooting?

    But you said you liked Trump. Now you're saying he's an arsehole. I was just clarifying your inconsistent points. <cheers>

    I do like Trump but that doesn't mean he's not being an arsehole mate.

    Either way it was fired by a far right republican, one of his base.
    That's the problem for demagogues, they fire people up then, sooner or later, those same people see through the BS and then the demagogue becomes the target

    See we are much the same.

    I actually think you're into light hearted fun and games and not just being aggressive so I think you're one of the best quite frankly.

    Biden would still be standing there wondering what was going on.

    As opposed to stopping still and staying exactly where you have just been shot at. That makes sense. :)

    TBF there were a lot of cia(?) standing surrounding him. I bet a lot of teenagers changed their minds on what they might want to do. <laugh>

    It's the impact of the shot I find very fishy - just a nice superficial nick to the top of his ear. The odds of being shot like that are ridiculously low, the bullet would have hit his head if it had gone through the top of his ear. And apparently this sniper was seen and reported to the police but nothing was done, hmmmm.

    And of course after being shot, you're not in huge shock or panic at all, you get up and raise your first to the crowd like the fighter and hero you are. It's Trump, so I'll question this from every angle. Seems like the kind of histrionic stunt he'd love to pull.

    I don't drink folders, I don't smoke, I am religious with my routine and my nutrition.

    On the outside it's all fun and games, but on the inside I am deadly serious about certain things. I think Obi is sound... he's also kung-fu Fu panda.

    Do you drink ?
