Another shooting at Trump

Seems transparently false. If anything there’s elation about a failed (non)attempt and the expected bump in polls. It’s a news cycle victory extraordinaire.
None will say that, but watch how they behave.
Sure, this is a thing that happens. Just like the Democrats were elated at Jan 6. None will say it, but watch how they act.

Probably a Remington 700 chambered in .308 Win. That's mostly a very accurate combo.
I used to shoot with a former Marine sniper (19 confirmed kills in the Nam) that loved that combo. At 200 yards, he could call his shots on a medium size cereal box...Right bottom corner, dead center, etc.
If you can get some bowling pins, try those at 300. Ain't easy.
700 is waaay outta my league

The RWEC explains the new rules.
"Back when Nancy Pelosi’s husband was attacked with a hammer, I was informed that, if the victim of an attack had at any point been “demonized” by a political party, then that political party was responsible for what follows. Indeed, in the immediate aftermath of that ugly incident, the Washington Post recruited no fewer than three of its top writers to draw a direct line between the assault on Paul Pelosi and a series of anti-Nancy political commercials that were run in 2010 — twelve years earlier. The “years of vilification,” the Post proposed, “culminated Friday when Pelosi’s husband, Paul, was attacked with a hammer during an early-morning break-in at the couple’s home in San Francisco by a man searching for the speaker and shouting ‘Where is Nancy? Where is Nancy?’” Lest anyone misunderstand what it meant by “culminated,” the paper made sure to spell it out. “For many Democrats,” the piece concluded, “the attack on Nancy Pelosi’s husband represents the all-but-inevitable conclusion of Republicans’ increasingly violent and threatening rhetoric toward their political opponent.”
I suppose that if someone is a "direct threat to our democracy," however, those rules don't apply. And CNN tells us that Trump should "tone down the rhetoric."

Here's the hedge (I believe) the shooter snuck into at like 2am. Kudos to the SS for spotting the guy considering you can't view anything from the street (once you're behind the hedge), and it sounds like it was just the barrel of the gun sticking through the fence that gave it away. You'd think a smarter assassin would wait before giving up his location like that?

I am sure Ukrainians will pay dearly for having this kook’s name and their country associated together in the same sentence:

For Putin, Routh’s propaganda value must be like mana from heaven.

This was interesting…
Making fun of people who note that "oh, but the guy didn't even shoot". Yeah, people actually note that, as if it's an important thing to keep in mind in this case. Don't ask me how I know.

So it looks like the guy never fired a shot. I wonder how much that complicates the prosecution and what he can be charged with.
Feds found a note outlining a plan. They just added attempted murder charges to the gun charges previously filed.

The son of the would-be assassin was arrested for possession of child porn. This is the guy who said that every reasonable person hates Trump.
