Trump blames harsh language for Kirk's death
Whaaaaattt??? I am so totally shocked to hear this accusation coming from Trump.
After the FBI has already apparently arrested and released 2 suspects... That's another great thing about firing every FBI agent that was qualified to do their job in retaliation for Jan 6th. You never quite know what's incompetence vs conspiracy these days.
Demonizing those you disagree with, eh? You mean the thing you do on a daily basis?! That you are now trying to blame on your opponents. Right, clear as day that one is.
Whats hilarious is that they say it was “radical left” people every time, and yet ultimately it always trickles out later that the person who did it was either politically conservative, or just generally a nut. To my knowledge no one has actually ever shot anyone because they held progressive or liberal beliefs.
The guy who “shot” Trump, accused liberal but verified conservative. The guy who hid at Trumps golf course trying to do the same? Verified conservative. The trans highschool shooter from a couple weeks ago? Accused liberal, but was actually just a straight up nazi glorifier. Like id give it better odds that the person who shot Kirk was a conservative who was mad about the Epstein files, just like the kid who tried to assassinate Trump was. Id say its also not far fetched that Kirk was a sacrificial lamb executed by his own party in order to secure the young conservative vote by generating a martyr. Its at least way more likely than someone with progressive and humanistic beliefs shooting him, considering assassinations and humanism dont exactly go hand in hand. Not to mention its suspicious as fuck that he was shot from a crowd and they somehow didnt catch the shooter…
The baseball shooter was a berniecrat.
There is a fundamental difference between rightwing violence targeting individuals and leftwing violence targeting systems.
Lolololololol because Trump is sooooo respectful in his language. He would never exaggerate or demonize people simply because they disagreed with him. Boo fucking hoo that there's people calling you a nazi, if it's such a problem then maybe he should stop doing things that are so easily a direct comparison to what hitler did. What an absolute joke of president.
Well, except for the bunker thing. He could try that one out...
It’s ironic af because he was the guy who ran on saying immigrants were eating dogs… Dems and pubs are nuts but when narcs give holier than thou speeches it’s always such a trip
Man, this is a wonderful distraction from the Trumpstein files, eh?
Trump is personally making it his mission to defend this "wonderful American", as if he's the only person in the United States to die from gun violence.
And the double-standard to say this was caused by political rhetoric while still using terms like "the radical left".
Yeah I know its straight out of the Fascist playbook, but this is way to conveniently timed and flawlessly executed. Its going to take some pretty compelling evidence for me to be convinced that this wasn't a false flag. I definitely wont trust that its whomever the regime eventually pins it on.
Charlie was a disposable pawn of right wing moneyed interests, and he will continue to serve those interests in death.
You know what... All those files dropped, it was looking bad for Trump, and that shot was surgical, rifle shot through the neck for one of the least liked mouth pieces and his death is announced by the President.
Not an unbelievable conspiracy.
Afternoon of the Long Rifles
And they somehow can't find the shooter. So if nobody's a suspect, everybody's a suspect.
Like I'm just thinking about the lockdown procedure that most campuses have in place and wondering how somebody could just walk away after doing this from the roof of some building.
Cause they didn’t lock down the school, they evacuated everyone.
AP news has videos of hundreds of students being ushered out of a building after the shot was fired.
But why the fuck would they do that?
Maybe they're picking the right patsy to become the shooter
Sounds like he was reading a script written by someone else. He's never that coherent.
He definitely didn’t write it, but had input on it lol
It's always projection.
Every accusation is a confession.
It gets more true everyday
