I’ll take that as a yes.

And the big fat pussy still left the stage. The ghost of TR is wondering where the men are these days.

Click to embiggen...
Is this possible?
Yes.
Surely your priors have to chalk this up to photoshopped click bait.

Watching the video of the event, it appears that Trump quickly took evasive action - but I was surprised at how long it took for 1) Secret Service to get on stage and 2) get him off the stage. If that guy was a better shot, this might have ended differently.

So that wraps up 2024 Presidential Election… Does it play down ballot?
Reagan’s approval rating went up 22% after he was shot.

It's not the movies.
Trump went down because he was grazed on the ear by a bullet... There's pain from the bullet and pain from the air pressure "slap".
The Secret Service acted fairly quickly AFTER they realized what was happening. They would not let Trump up, covering him with their bodies. If you listen close to the tape, you'll hear somebody yelling "Shooter down! Shooter down!"...The Secret Service did not let him up until then. They then shielded him all the way to the SUV.

Biden just can’t catch a break.
I think he did. Without this afternoon, tomorrow’s pundit shows would have all been focused, echoing, and amplifying the calls for him to drop out. It would have been over. The Biden dementia story just got moved to the back page, and by the time it comes back up, it’s likely too late to replace him on the ticket.
Now, I think it’s very likely that today’s events drove the nail in his November coffin, but it bought him a week at the least.

Interesting observation. You might well be right.

I think Trump’s can only go up by 2.2%… That’s all the room that’s left…But it’s likely enough.
