The X Files: Trump Assassination Attempt
Gregory Hood, American Renaissance, July 14, 2024
President Donald Trump survived an assassination attempt on Saturday, taking a grazing bullet wound in the ear. He responded with bravura, pumping his fist at the crowd and telling them to “fight” as the Secret Service tried to hustle him off. Several progressives on X alleged that the shooting may have been fake. This would not explain the death of Trump supporter Corey Comperatore, who died protecting his family at the scene.
BREAKING: The Trump rally attendee who was murdered yesterday by Matthew Crooks has been identified as Corey Comperatore.
A family member has released a statement on their Facebook page about the situation.
Prayers up for Corey and his family. pic.twitter.com/WAK9p4xuUw

Still, that did not stop baseless speculation.
And yes, the billionaire DNC mega-donor @reidhoffman is and long has been one of the nation’s most deranged and demented scumbags.https://t.co/g4hGWEGXey pic.twitter.com/B8iQ8KjsZx

If you don’t think that shit was staged? Look at how fast they got trump outta there at just the mention of someone in the crowd having a gun in 2016. Then look at this goofy as shit. pic.twitter.com/zqZMHRO5jT

CNN initially did its best to downplay the assassination attempt.
Does CNN just keep bad headlines ready to go, or was this one specially prepared? https://t.co/GnThuUVpBr pic.twitter.com/a1Fl8TISGk

If we learned anything today, I hope it’s realizing the importance of principles I’ve stressed many times on stream before: having a firearm means absolutely nothing if you don’t spend time at the range practicing with it.

Or that the murder victim may have had it coming, or at least is not worth mourning.
Guy spends his last 24 hours tweeting at catturd and going to a trump rally. Maybe he’s better off dead, I would kill myself if that was my life. https://t.co/XZEPffgygd
