My guess is that the main reason they don’t report it is because they are so very disappointed it didn’t succeed.

And Trump himself isn’t making a big deal abut it, forcing them to cover it.

My neighbor knows the officer that would have had his gun taken away. The officer is a five tour Iraq military policeman who is big and all muscle. The would be assassin messed with a bad ass dude.

“Can you imagine the coverage we’d be seeing if someone had attempted to shoot Hillary Clinton?”

Well, I wrote about that on this site maybe 8 years ago and not even in the context of someone really trying to shoot Hillary, but more fictional about a screaming leftwing loony not seeing Hillary as far enough to the left.

On his show, O’Reilly condemned us as right wing nuts and how FR is a radicalized website. I called O’Reilly’s show for 3 months trying to get him to acknowledge he was off base, but neither him or his staff had the courage or integrity to take the call.

The media is the enemy of the people. They are pathetically without integrity.

The likeliness of this brat killing Trump was probably nil. But if he had gotten ahold of that gun he could have killed the cop or killed someone at the rally. Also, the media has made up all sorts of stories about this would-be murderer.

If it was Hillary, it would be Trumps fault and 7x24 nonstop MSM coverage telling us its Trumps fault,

The problem this election cycle for the NWO cabal is that many people are waking up to the managed news and we still have other outlets to go to besides the MSM for unbiased information,

They probably realize now that they should have clamped down on internet rights (internet IDs, fairness doctrine, NSA profiling etc.,) much sooner than planned, so yeah its coming,

Yes.

If they publicize anyone being stopped and or caught, it might discourage the next one.

You got that right.

Thank God Trump had great protection at that rally.

Trump cannot rely solely on the Secret Service which is spread very thin. Some of those agents are primarily paper pushers or investigators not warriors in any sense of the word.

Because the MSM is hoping plus a couple of moonbat bobble heads were suggesting it.

That is why they are called the fifth-column leftist media.

Maybe this officer could see that the would be assassin was a frail, mentally ill young man, and could be controlled without breaking his little jaw.
The young man’s parents should never have given him the money to move to follow his girlfriend to the united states.
Did they ever think that just maybe, the girl wanted to get away from their son, with all his many problems?

So I should keep praying for God to keep the Donald safe, then.

I would be content to see a mug shot. It seems there isn’t one.
