The covfefe never ends.

The US has always been a highly politicized country and an incredibly violent one. This is an ahistorical take.

The USA has failed.

Politics was invented to control and monopolize violence, not prevent it.

lol lmao

It's peculiar how all these assassination attempts never involve someone actually pointing a gun at him.

I think it's more appropriate to say "when violence is escorted through the front door..."

Stupid drivel and incredibly ahistorical

"Former GOP" Lmfao, fuck off. Unless you are a literal infant you cannot believe what you posted.

What utter bollocks

This is dumb. You're dumb.

This is perhaps the most uneducated opinion you could possibly have about politics. Like read one single book. You can pick basically any one.

Secret Service member shot but shooter is apparently alive? Show of hands who finds THAT difficult to believe? In my former world, you hear ‘gun gun gun’ and the SUB is usually heavily perforated. It ain’t shoot to wound. It’s “put the threat down.” Smell test? ❌

I'll be sure to keep that in mind the next time my daughter does an active shooter drill

When authoritarians obstruct the will of the people it prevents politics from performing that function.

Man who has truly misunderstood Clausewitz (and by extension Foucault).

Trump has created this situation ever since he started running for president in his first term. He has created so much division and hate trying to divide people with hate and violence. He personally attacks people so his followers will threaten his enemies. Trump is the creator of this evil.

Putin created the assassination act to help himself in elections to sway the people to get on his side. He also wanted to help Viktor Orban in Hungary, I believe Trump is using this process over and over trying to get the people to overlook his narcissistic unlawful acts when he gets desperate.

Just waking up and seeing comments saying 'one job' all over my timeline. What's happened?

I remember when Criminal Trump summoned a mob to the Capitol who beat & killed a police officer. I also remember Criminal Trump pardoning the violent mob. When people are not held accountable politics fails & democracy cease to exist.

Excellent point

THEN “politics” has been FAILING for most of human history!

Alternatively, when politics fails, violence enters.

I’m sick and tired of fake assassination attempts!

Dementia inspired human sacrifice is even more of a failure.

What happens when staged violence enters politics?

No it wasn't you buffoon

There is a developing or developed culture of violence at the Department of War, at the Injustice Department, at the State Department, at HHS, at FCC, at EPA, etc.

Read a book.

staged. to gather his crowd around the lamb of christ 😒

war is the continuation of politics by other means you moron

Violence is integral to politics. Politics makes law. Laws are enforced with violence. The powerful can only be powerful if they can enforce their decisions. Naivety in the face of this very basic reality might be comforting, but it betrays the lack of seriousness in your political thought.

This looked staged.

No it wasn't.

Fake trumpie news unless u tell me otherwise.

Agreed but, I'm going to say that just like his staged (allegedly) "assassination attempt" that got a kid and firefighter murdered, that this was another staged event.

Politics *is* violence. It is the organization of violence. Outbreaks of overt violence are a political failure.

Fail”ed”

Who the fuck told you that? That’s not what politics is or has ever been

are you fucking stupid?

There are good people on both sides. This is where we are now. Americans voted for crazy 3 times.

Got it backwards Adam: when politics fails, violence enters.

This is nonsense, shut up

This is all a hoax staged by the Trump team to ruin the correspondence dinner and make Trump the star of the evening.

Can you think of another reason why, as his popularity decreases, attempts on his life would increase?

He was polling great when the photo here was taken.

Ear me Ear me Ear me And Dr Trump, messiah of the white power fascists, touched himself And just like BruceWayne McMunchkin, rose up taller & healed Like no one has ever seen before They say God on earth, you have shown us to be all good & gifted Take our money Take our young daughters!

My first thought exactly

I was in a really bad car wreck when I was 18. Glass shattered and tore a chunk of my ear lobe off. It scarred over and even today 20 years later it's still there. He faked that first one. This is is no different.

these people got to feel a fraction of the fear people in iran have been living with. shut the fuck up and deal with it

Oh please. This was another set up.

If thing A is intended to prevent thing B and B happens, A has ipso facto failed.

log off take a deep breath and go back to school

Please think about whatever this is

This is probably the best post you have made. So very true.

cool grade school understanding of politics

We are at a time when both sides are angry. So its probably not a good idea for politicians to continue to light the match.

Honey, it failed long before last night.

Exactly mean trump is fail stage like 2024

You must be new to earth and the humans that reside upon it.

Gosh poor Adam, I can’t believe you’ve never heard of political violence before… like how the president has ordered extra judicial killings (colloquially referred to as ‘murder’). Targets include fishermen and a girls elementary school! It’s crazy man you should look it up.

Not to mention the chaos it engenders in everyday life

I know it’s safer to pretend this wasn’t a fake but it was

Wait until you learn about war and policing.

This was a staged event to get a sympathy vote for his ballroom! Anything to deflect from Epstein or the Iran war fiasco. That’s it!

It's fake.

My man, you are/were literally in the national guard

That’s what Trump wants.

Come on, man, are you ten years old or something?

This must hit so hard if you're stupid

Americans! Know why your country!’s in deep trouble? Because THIS 👆 is the level of intelligence and education in Congress. You’re f*cked.

Politics was a fail from the start

You were in the US air force. Did you think you were dropping all those bombs apolitically? Did your fontanelle never close?

We have no DOJ!

Especially when the violence is staged.

Source?

there is no politics without power and there is no power without violence.

"When the government breaks the law, there is no law, just a fight for survival."

Clausewitz said war is the continuation of politics by other means.

How many countries have we bombed in the last year? How many police murders have there been?

This will probably be his justification to push the courts to allow him to build his new ballroom.

With how many lies come out of the administration and with how much stuff is just made up, you can't blame one for questioning if this whole thing is real or not.

What politics built the vehicle your profile picture was taken from and what purpose does that vehicle serve, exactly?

Every mass shooting that has taken place in this country politicians have made political. Their votes are considered more important than people’s lives. Again, this has been going on for years but yet allowed.

Seems like an extra dumb thing to say, when Trump politics revolves around ICE and blowing up small boats around South America.

When politics fakes violence to advance their politics, and the public gets distracted from legit violence, then the politicians are parading their violence while everyone cheers and the American public are fools for believing it.

I agree Adam. Tramp's politics are failing hence Tramp's violence. Also Reagan started this disaster.

Well, everyone else already knew 4F Trump's politics failed from the start.

US military vets aren't beating the allegations that they are all dumb as rocks.

The shooter should be set free by the next Democrat Potus. If Trump is setting free those who wanted to kill house and senate members, Then he should be set free on day 7th Jan 2030.

History would disagree.

What is it when the president stages assassination events to bump his popularity or gain sympathy? Seems like another political failure.

Politics was invented to decide who is allowed to use violence and who isn't. The violence never left politics.

youtu.be/zoGZ5YXMk6E?...

The amount of hate and divide that fucker has created in the world is astounding.

TDS? This fucking guy has done nothing but spew hate and piss off every ally and is up every dictators ass. He’s completely destroyed this country. Unlike any so called president before. You keep drinking the Kool Aid.

well, you claimed there was no political violence before this current president, not me

He's the worst but it's been shit for a long time buddy. Trump can be bad, and everyone before could've sucked too.

lol bro

This fucking guy has done nothing but spew hate and piss off every ally and is up every dictators ass. He’s completely destroyed this country. Unlike any so called president before. You keep drinking the Kool Aid.

Oh I don't disagree with any of this af all! I think we just misunderstood each other's point. All good!

3? Which Presidential assassination do you think is a lie made up by historians?

What Kool Aid, my guy? I'm not a Trump supporter. I'm also not a moron who thinks Trump is the reason for all our problems. You seem to be drinking something... smells like piss.

This fucking guy has done nothing but spew hate and piss off every ally and is up every dictators ass. He’s completely destroyed this country. Unlike any so called president before. You keep drinking the Kool Aid.

Or was violence invented to prevent politics? Chicken or egg?

Can I just have one, single quiet weekend without thinking or hearing about this buffoon?
