I woke this morning to this news. It’s shocking but unsurprising given the divisive nature of current US politics. Opinions clearly differ on who and what is responsible for the divisiveness. Some Republicans have rushed to blame the Democrats, including Biden, for it, saying their attitude towards Trump is entirely to blame. I hope this sends enough shockwaves through the USA to stop it, but I fear it will make it worse. This post should be the one that finally finishes you. I think you are now persona non grata.

I told everyone this would happen. Not exactly surprising I guess. Another lone gunman? The circumstances leading up to this strongly suggested a plan B to get rid of Trump. Problem is, they missed the target.

This post should be the one that finally finishes you. I think you are now persona non grata. Because I am attempting to discuss the cause of the divisiveness? When identifying it and eradicating it seems essential? I subscribe to Gab and routinely receive Andrew Torba's diatribes, most of which are extremely divisive in nature. I received 2 today, the second of which was in reaction to yesterday's event. It's far too long to repeat in full but these are some paragraphs from it. Whatever your political beliefs might be it must surely be plain to all where the divisiveness in the USA is originating:- "After tonight's events I have come to the realization that I no longer want any association whatsoever with any liberals. None. Not in the community, not at church, not anywhere. The reasons for this decision are rooted in the belief that being around these people poses a threat to our sanity, safety, and families. First and foremost, the constant bombardment of liberal ideologies and beliefs has become a source of mental and emotional exhaustion. The never-ending debates, the constant need to defend our values, and the relentless pressure to conform to their worldview have taken a toll on our mental well-being. These people are insane and in associating with them we allow their madness to infect us. In these tumultuous times, it is more important than ever to remember President Trump's inspiring words from tonight as he got up off the ground: "Fight! Fight! Fight!" as we continue to battle for the soul of our nation, our culture, and our people. The forces that seek to undermine our values, traditions, and way of life are relentless, but so too is our determination to preserve and protect all that we hold dear." It's this attitude which lies at the root of the problem in the USA and for which I see no obvious solution. People are living in parallel universes.

If Elon musk had not bought Twitter (X) we would all be waking up to the news Trump "slipped" while making a speech. Which I might add a lot of MSM are trying to peddle. What a silly post. The best reporting I’ve seen on this thus far has been BBC which has had some great interviews from those in attendance. What outlets have been saying Trump slipped?

No, it's people like Wisbech Eagle that are the root of the problem. Specifically it's his demonstrated TDS on this forum that are illustrative of why murder was attempted of a presidential candidate. This guy is morally repugnant and always has been. He relies on the right's respect for free speech to troll it. It's ethically parasitic behaviour. The BBS would have banned any right wing version of him after about two posts.

Have you no shame? For trying to discuss the cause of the divisiveness that plagues the USA? None at all. Getting that out in the open and trying to find a way to ensure a more measured and respectful approach is essential. No one in their right mind supports an attempted assassination which resulted in loss of life and I certainly don't. It is though evidence of a much bigger problem, made worse by the free availability of powerful weapons. The biggest barrier to solving this is Trump. Biden's response was dignified and personal.

The question around Biden's DHS refusal of Trump's team request for more security is now a very serious issue. While I respected what Biden said, there are words and there are actions.

Yes fair play to the BBC for actually doing it's job. To say my post was silly is clearly ridiculous. Plenty of MSM outlets reported that he "slipped" or "fell".

An iconic picture. Most of us are old enough to have lived through some seismic events that go down in history, I remember the attempted Reagan assassination. This is another event that will be similarly remembered in history. It certainly is an unwanted memory but there you go.

An iconic picture. It is. One that will become as famous as JFK in his limo. How long before it is used by the Trump campaign? Hours or days?
