    What garbage. There is a dead 50 year old husband and father of two daughters, a fire chief from Pennsylvania, that was shot in the back by Thomas Crooks as he attempted to assassinate Trump. Two other people at the rally suffered critical wounds from rifle fire. Exercise some critical thinking.

  2. We are becoming a world of conspiracy theorists. Let’s be the side that sticks to the facts, not our emotional responses to people that we like/don’t like. I understand that people feel like they wouldn’t put anything past someone, but we really need to work with facts and not how we feel. Many people have suffered the wrath of crowds that suddenly think they know something without evidence. Let’s have investigations and follow the facts but I really don’t care if a couple of average people have some theories in their heads.

  3. The first one – not at all. Everything about that seemed legit, and tbh I doubt Trump would be crazy enough to let someone shoot at him.

    The second one – at first I had my thoughts… The shooter never actually fired and it was an unexpected golf trip for Trump. Also many people expected Trump to surge after the previous assassination attempt, and I could see Trump latching on to that thought. “I just lost this debate, lets try another assassination attempt.”

    But then I think about the guy who did it, and I just see some crazy person who didn’t really connect to anyone. I doubt this person was part of any organized plan, he just had the impulse to do this crazy thing and not enough sense to stop himself.
