EDIT: Commentary removed.
I hate the orange fucker but it sounds like he has PTSD. I have combat PTSD and see dangers where there aren’t any. Sometimes your brain just wants you to leave the area.
Yeah, he should retire and have that looked at. Poor guy, he needs some rest. At his age…
I hate the orange shitbag and have no sympathy if he is suffering. I genuinely want good things for all people. But he wants bad things for many people and so my wishes for good things don’t extend to him, his ilk, etc.
Isn’t the accepted abbreviation USSS to avoid the association with the Schutzstaffel?
Did someone come up and whisper in his ear? Was he wearing an earpiece? If he knew ahead of time that “security [didn’t] want [him] there,” security wouldn’t have let him be there in the first place.
He may have dined with RFK Jr.
While I’m not a fan of tfg, and I don’t know whether he’s lying or telling the truth, there’s legitimate reason to take his comment seriously. We may not like him, but the SS has a job to do.
Do you think someone suffering from PTSD will be able to fulfill their duties as President?
Active PTSD without treatment? Absolutely not. Maybe with some really good therapy but can you imagine that turnip taking advice from a therapist? Hah!
I have been completely calm on the outside yet freaking out on the inside and made excuses to leave so that really isn’t a tell for PTSD or not. I haven’t watched video of the event and I’m not saying the shitbag wouldn’t use it as an excuse to get out of hard questions, I’m just saying with my personal experiences being shot at that giving excuses to get out of what you think is a dangerous situation (but really isn’t) is a classic sign of PTSD.
Watching it, it looks like a stunt / setup to show how “dangerous the border is” or some bullshit. You never know what’s going on in the moldy orange’s brain.
Thank you for linking to the vid!
Sounds like he was just being an asshole and wanting to end the interview which the reported kept extending with questions. Seems like this is non-news.
Thanks. What a shitty news article to not even provide the video (yet still include a completely unrelated random video at the top of the page anyway).
Glad you posted the clip instead of Newsweek’s bond music video.
The only thing the clip really shows is that RFK Jr was meant to be a Biden spoiler. Florida politicians have a history of using this tactic. However, Kennedy was only stealing Trump votes. Now the rapists are joining forces like usual.
Trump: I look so weak when I run away from interviews. If only there was a way to ditch an interview AND remind people of the assassination attempt.
Having your head on a swivel after being shot at is normal. But you know what’s also unfortunately normal? Being shot at in the US.
A normal person would, after being shot at, consider pushing for responsible gun ownership legislation. He could help prevent what happened to him and hundreds of thousands of other Americans.
It’s so much cooler and more presidential to stand in a glass box and talk about how safe guns are for everyone though
“The second amendment people know that the radical left want to take your gu…”
Someone knocks over a chair and makes a loud bang
“WE’RE IN DANGER”
Kamala should slam her hand down on her podium periodically during their debate just to see if she can trigger the fat fuck into flipping out. It would be amazing seeing him combat dive and roll around on the stage while screaming “WE’RE IN DANGER!”
But you know what’s also unfortunately normal? Being shot at in the US.
Oh, fuck off. Even if it did happen to “hundreds of thousands” of Americans, it wouldn’t be “normal”. The US has 340 MILLION people in it.
But yeah, “hundreds of thousands” is bullshit it’s not even close to one hundred thousand, less than half that actually, about 43k last year: https://healthjournalism.org/blog/2024/02/nearly-43000-people-died-from-gun-violence-in-2023-how-to-tell-the-story/
Something that happens to 1% of 1% of the population isn’t “normal”.
You have to consider the aggregate impact. Tens of thousands a year, over multiple years.
For example, this was an interesting that showed that, in a lifetime, 15% of Americans have witnessed a shooting, 25% have been threatened with a gun, 12% have been shot at, and 4% have been shot.
https://www.surveyusa.com/client/PollReport.aspx?g=4a9eed40-c8b0-419c-ae82-71e1dbd19ca0&c=254
in a lifetime, 15% of Americans have witnessed a shooting, 25% have been threatened with a gun, 12% have been shot at, and 4% have been shot.
You’re not actually suggesting ‘once in a lifetime’ falls under “normal occurrence”, are you?
This is also a partial goalpost move, since the original sentiment responded to was asserting that “being shot at” was normal, and you’re now citing other things like ‘seeing someone else shoot someone’, obviously an event that’s much more common relatively speaking (but still nowhere near “normal” for the average American).
I’ve always felt like Trump uses “we” more like the “royal we” as in he’s a monarch, whereas other public figures use “we” to include society.
Yeah, also when ever he said ‘‘a lot of people don’t know this’’ he means ‘‘I just learned this a few days ago’’ and ‘‘a lot of people are saying’’ means ‘‘This is just my opinion’’. On the bizarre side of things, ‘‘bigly’’ is actually a real word in the English language and he would be using it grammatically correct most times he says it IF that was what he’s actually saying, but he not, he’s trying to say ‘‘big leauge’’ and is almost always using it incorrectly.
