    Front page of today's New York Times:

    "Doctors cash in"
    "Drug Cartel Gold"
    "Kyiv"
    "Michael Jackson"
    "War Supply"

    Assasination attempt?

    Nah...

    That front page is actually the early Sunday edition, which is printed and distributed on Saturdays. So, the dinner/assassination had not even taken place.

          Why would anyone think he’s using her as a shield? To me it looks like the threat was behind them, they are both getting ushered out by someone else, and he’s making sure she doesn’t get left behind.

          We are so freaking broken.

                  To me it just looks like a friendly game of tit cricket.

                    Unfortunate hand placement. But when you are terrified, who cares.

                      Maybe, but 4 points are 4 points.

                        I presume this is the modal response on the left. Lunacy and conspiracy and giggles.

                            An actual conspiracy!

                              It’s not obvious that the ballroom, if it existed, would have been used. The White House doesn’t host this. The president just goes.

                                I saw an interesting tidbit - the shooter never even got to the same floor as the president was on. He was stopped at the security checkpoint. So I’m not sure the people saying ‘security failed’ have a point.

                                Also it sort of dampens some of the silly conspiracy theories. Surely if you staged this you’d let the ‘shooter’ enter the room before being caught.
