We should all be praying for God to keep Trump safe. Trump needs to have the best protecting him.

I think you’re right.

This was the dumbest and most pitiful assassination attempt ever. Just stupid.

Didn’t have a gun and couldn’t get one (the system works), so he has to try to take one from a cop. So dumb. Went to the range the day before and fired 20 rounds to ‘learn how to shoot’... Yeah, right. Now he’s an expert marksman.

You add it all up and it’s just... sad. Doesn’t exactly inspire hair raising.

Had he gotten the gun, he would’ve hurt somebody (if he could fire it), but not Trump. Trump wears body armor, so it would actually take a head shot to seriously threaten him. There was no way that this yokel was going to pull that off.

I think that it’s not a big deal because there was never a real threat.

After the article posted on FR today and this terrorist’s links to Mateen of the Orlando massacre, Sherlock Holmes might begin to put 2 + 2 together unless he was taught in new math.

The longest coverage I saw of this story was once on a “Nancy Grace” show.

I disagree. Have you read any of the info on this kid? It’s pretty shocking how his parents encouraged him to come to the USA with plenty of money and then lost track of him for a year. It’s a scary scenario. He had plans to go to another rally as well. This could have quickly degenerated into a killing.

Given the history of this administration, this is unnervingly plausible. Here's more related food for thought:

But that’s not the whole story...yes it was attempted and it failed, thank goodness...but the real story is who it was, who he was connected to and why...

The media twits tried to spin a story about how ‘love sick’ he was, he met a girl in America, blah, blah, blah...BS...

He was connected to the Orlando Shooter and James Howell...same cell of Radial Islamic Terrorism....

I passed this info on. Maybe you should send the link to Trump’s people and Sundance.
