Suspected gunman in custody.

Bystander saw and snapped a photo of the escape car - including the license plate. Took 30 min to catch him.

Well, she may actually be worse than her lying, power-hungry husband.

I recognized the last name, and honestly wondered whether that was a relative of his, or maybe he'd gotten a sex change.

Is this true?

I don’t have the energy to dive into current events for the moment. Forgive me if I’m spreading a false rumor.

But of so maybe the problem for Trump is that he’s the most fascinating person on earth to the mentally unstable.

[Horace]

Whatever the truth may be, I'm glad we're getting those all-important first impressions indelibly made in the image of wish casting.

[George K]

Yeah, mentally unstable.

[George K]

FB has scrubbed his account...

[Horace]

Seems like a profoundly moral human being.

There are plenty of accounts diving really deep into his 2019-20 posts. He seems to have briefly been a Bernie fan too. Or at least belligerently said he’d back him after getting a dry at Biden.

But X did not...

[Renauda]

….another kook.

[jon-nyc]

@George-K Strictly true but misleading to the point of dishonesty. All of his donations were during the 2019-2020 campaign when he was backing Tulsi/Biden/Bernie. No donations since then.

So the unequivocal tribe he belongs to, is the TDS tribe, consumed by all those mainstream existential threat narratives. Let's see how successfully that fact is avoided.

In other words a typical Vivek supporter?

Great, pathologize disagreement. You’d make a great anti-racist.

I guess you might have a fever.

One thing that’s obvious is he’s all over the map politically. Let’s see how studiously that fact gets avoided. It’s easy enough to hang one’s hat on the near-tautology that people that shoot at Trump don’t like him.

Actually that was quite avoided in the previous assassination attempt.

I guess my point about avoidance hit a nerve, as you've used it in your two follow-up posts. While avoiding the fact, as predicted. Get some rest.

[jon-nyc]

Putting aside the premature claim that not only do you know his motivations but have some degree of their magnitude, Just how large would you expect the Venn intersection of “consumed by TDS and existential threat narratives” and “Vivek 2024!” to be?

[Horace]

A fascinating redirection towards a failed candidate who didn't do particularly well in the primaries and who's messaging is part of no mainstream I am aware of. Quality of avoidance? 2 out of 10.

[jon-nyc]

I’m giving yours a nine.
