You're talking about reality. 

Reality has nothing to do with media image.

Also, you could use proper nouns as well as pronouns to aid clarity. Who is "he", "he", and "him" in this poorly-written sentence?

The first "he" is the shooter. The second "he" is also the shooter. The "him" is Trump.

Sure, perhaps. But shitty writing is shitty writing. And I'll wait to see Trump made a hero even as he slurred the troops who stormed Omaha Beach.

I wonder if Trump is going to consider himself invincible now (or at least claim it), as he did when he got covid.

Yet after he got Covid, he proved rather vincible all the same.

I predict Xians will give god credit for saving trumps life

Rubio is giving credit to yahwehjesus for saving trump. 

No mention on the poor son of a bitch that god had to slaughter in trumps place.

Breaking news: an idiot at a Trump rally with a gun missed.

Perhaps Felonia needs to hire a school shooter...

I suggest that the doctors inject bleach into Trump and shine a UV light up his butt. He'll be all better in no time. Maybe throw in a dose or two of that, was it a malaria drug, into the mix.

No it was simply the police and prosecutor being so focused on convicting him that they deliberately hid exculpatory evidence. This probably makes Hannah Gutierrez-Reed's appeal a slam dunk too.

It's what happens when the prosecution lies against a defendant who can afford a good counsel.

I read that cyanide was good for fixing wounds!

I'm sure the loons on the far right are making payback plans that may extend to any dem running.

Will Trump incite or quell?

I would not be at all surprised if this shooter was a loon from the far right from the details released so far.
