    I believe part of the reason has to do with the lack of information being released.

    There are two big questions about this shooting. Was there more than one shooter? Did the shooter have help?

    Enough info has been released to create a beleivable story there was only one shooter. IF, the info is true and not created to cover something up. Part of me does not trust the info released, and the govt agencys releasing it.

    As far as did the shooter have help? There was a leak about the shooters cell phone locations days prior to the shooting. IF the leak is true. It places the shooter within 1 block of FBI buildings, in two cities. Both times for a prolonged period of time. Which suggests the shooter met with someone.

    If the shooter did have inside help. We will never know the real truth.

    Why did the shooter's behavior suggest he was going to get away with shooting a former president? Lots of un-answered questions.

    Also, why does his ear look like nothing happened and he was golfing the next day without a bandage.

    So many unanswered questions

    I'll say this: Trump's ear is a lot less scary than his father's:

    This evil fuck financed and organized a Nazi rally in Manhattan at Madison Square Garden in the late 30s....around 1938....there's never been a worse slum lord or bigger racist than Fred Trump and you can trace his Nazi allegiances right back to prewar days. People forget how popular the Nazi party was with a large segment of our population before we sided with England and France. He was Donald's hero and mentor so for MAGA fools to think Nazi tags are inappropriate to assign to Trump, they are actually deep rooted in his father's resume.

    And those are the same ideals the current Republican party is built upon.

    Called it. They've apparently found posts made by Crooks that are extremist and antisemitic in nature. I understand the impulse to call Trump a Nazi, but that's missing the shot with actual Nazis. They believe he is 100% controlled by Israel, especially the zoomers who follow commentators like Fuentes.

    https://www.usatoday.com/story/news...mp-assassination-attempt-hearing/74600759007/

    "Some of these comments, if ultimately attributable to the shooter, appear to reflect anti-Semitic and anti-immigration themes, to espouse political violence, and are described as extreme in nature," Abbate said during his opening remarks.

    Later, Abbate committed to Sen. Mazie Hirono, D-Hawaii, that he would let the public and senators know if and when the FBI confirms the posts came from Crooks.

    Sounds like someone motivated by the hateful rhetoric from the far right. No wonder we don’t hear much about the shooter anymore

    I think it's partially due to all the competing narratives drowning each other out. In that same article, the owner of Gab claims that he has proof that Crooks had an account on the website, the FBI hasn't ruled it out either. The dust hasn't cleared yet.

    Problem, too many Congressional Republicans more interested in a sound bite to play on right wing media than in getting the facts. We need a serious and transparent investigation.

    That's not possible. Somebody in this very forum was just telling me how much more violent the left is than the right...

    I mean, we all know the shooting was only ever seen as a politicially expedient promotional opportunity right? It’s just there’s no juice left to squeeze since trump wasn’t actually hit and the shooter was one of the fascists he emboldens and empowers.
