Secret Service is saying he’s fine. There’s always next time…

Damn! I wish the shooter had spent more time at the range. What a waste.

Hopefully Biden will pardon the hostage... er, I mean shooter.

There's a photo of him with blood on his ear, fist in the air, and a big American flag behind.

This is like the shot of raising the flag on Iwo Jima.

He's won for sure.

Nope.  Turns out the state hid the evidence of the defense's claim by intentionally misfiling it, the cop they asked to dispose of the evidence -of that- blew the whistle. One prosecutor resigned mid hearing..and the other had some sort of weird ass panic attack that ended up earning a talking to from the judge.

I watched a video and after the Secret Service piled onto Trump, no one else in the crowd moved...at least none of the ones you could see.

I can't speak for other people but if someone got shot just a few feet from me, I would be looking to get out of the area not standing around scratching my ass.

Thing is, there are people who hate Biden, too. I guy I know gave me the news not long after it happened, saying, "I wish it was the other guy!".
