The Facts Don't Add Up About Trump Shooting
Don't blame me for writing about this, I am just passing on what seems to be trending about the 'fake assassination attempt.'
Is it live, or is it Memorex? If you are over a certain age, then you will recall these wonderful commercials and shattering glasses. Our world was cracked a bit further on Saturday by “all things Trump.” This, too, could soon become our new motto because, like everything that has happened to our “everyday (Alltag in German)” since the orange buffoon descended the escalator at Trump Tower, wherever he goes, chaos, violence, lies, and hate to follow.
Despite what I recently wrote about the assassination being staged by Trump’s people, I also stand by the fact that I am not a conspiracy theorist. Nonetheless, I find that my admissions that I don’t believe this was staged are being put to the test. Here is why I don’t think the assassination was staged.
As a former PR and communications professional and someone who has led his company in participation in over 60 international conferences and conventions with exhibitions stands as costly as $500,000 plus four years of pulling the Russian House of Technology together during the World Economic Forum in Davos, I can tell you that the best-planned events always suffer from last minute, unforeseen mishaps. It could be as trivial as all of the microphones cutting out in a packed hall at the MIPIM exhibition in Cannes, France, with 100 people gathered to hear five speakers discussing the most effective way to construct fulfillment centers to the barrel of beer not opening at a sizeable end-of-week bash at our stand at Munich’s EXPO. Impossible to plan for, the axiom shit happens always prevails, and you need to roll with it.
This is why pulling off a pre-planned fake assassination in Bethel Park, Pennsylvania, with a young man who worked as a dietary technician at a nearby Senior’s home, screams, “shit will undoubtedly happen.” Maybe, in this case, what happened was Tommy Crooks missed his target. Maybe the shot was such an easy one that the sentiment, “He can’t miss,” is the one that has left the organizers this week in shock. Crooks was in an elevated position, 130 yards from Trump, and his show only pierced his ear.
There are so many reasons why this was not a conspiracy and an assault planned only by the shooter — who happened to be wearing a Demolition Ranch t-shirt. Demolition Ranch is the largest YouTube channel for guns, and the owner is a hardcore right-winger.
But then experts with years of experience as snipers are saying different things. In what reminds me of a scene from the movie Shooter with Mark Wahlberg, a Canadian sniper who currently holds the world record for the longest shot on target had this to say:
‘Like, you don’t even have to be a sniper — it’s the most f****** obvious thing, most obvious place in the whole world. ‘You could be like a seventh-grader — like “What do we have to do for security?” Well, let’s look at these rooftops that are almost within zeroing range of a rifle,’ he joked. ‘So something happened, and I’m not pointing fingers at anyone. It’s just too obvious that this guy had help getting there. ‘So whether it’s someone turned a blind eye or it was strategically planned, it had to be planned to a certain level because events like that, security like that, it’s not a small thing — and that is an obvious place to be (Veteran Holding Sniper World Record).’
The reasons this could have been a staged event
Then, there are many reasons to suggest that this was a violent act carried out by pro-Trump forces. Last week, Viktor Orban flew to meet with Trump. Orban was undoubtedly passing on some message from Putin. Putin is well-known for staging false flag events throughout his career to strengthen his political position. The bombings of apartment buildings in Russia in late 1999 to justify the second invasion of Chechnya are believed to be by many Russians the work of their current president.
It was proven even by investigators, but many then died mysteriously, and others went into hiding. Putin knows a lot about collateral damage and understands how the deaths of innocent people can work wonders for a person’s ratings.
Even though Trump has steadily been leading Biden, and Biden’s debate performance wounded him possibly mortally, the right-wing coup that has formed around Trump (SCOTUS, the Heritage Foundation, and many more) could not take the chance that a younger, more capable Democrat would replace Biden. Bannon and many of the fascist lunatics have openly said that if the Democrats replace Biden, Trump will lose, and MAGA could be vanquished. The fascist revolution needed a burning of the Reichstag/murdering of the Nazi diplomat in Paris moment to unite the hardcore and violent base against the regime’s imagined enemies. When the Reichstag burned, the Enabling Act was passed; the Ernst vom Rath was murdered in Paris by a Jewish emigre, and Kristallnacht was launched. Hitler’s ratings skyrocketed. He played the sympathy and martyr cards.
With blood smeared across his face and the Secret Service oddly delaying his removal from the stage despite bullets still whizzing by, Trump had the time and wherewithal to raise his fist for the photo of this still young century. If I had just been shot, and blood was pouring from my ear — ears, by the way, are like fingertips and bleed immensely and Trump’s ear was barely bleeding — I think I would have been concerned with getting the hell off that stage and not pumping my fist shouting “fight, fight, fight.”
At that moment, Trump re-energized his campaign and silenced the Biden campaign, which had recently been making headway with a large push against Project 25 and Trump’s candidacy being the end of American democracy. Suddenly, sympathy was the order of the day, and even MSNBC took Joe Scarborough off the air on Monday, afraid he would criticize Trump!
Suddenly, Democrats have forgotten about removing Biden from the ticket, and everything is coming up Trump, 24/7. Trump’s raised fist has not become the rallying cry at the convention, and Elon Musk is using his massive platform and millions of dollars to glorify Trump. It is almost like a nightmare coming true. Before Saturday, Musk had refrained from supporting Trump, and now his 190 million followers are getting daily messages about “Jesus Trump.”
The last reason this event on Saturday could have been staged is an obvious one: Everything around Trump is a lie. Everything about him is fake. He is a reality TV star, and even people close to him say in private that he is tedious, repetitive, and boring, but once the cameras switch on, the actor comes to life, and he plays his role. Finally, every person around him is sick, vile and would have no problem killing some rally attendees for the sake of regaining power and ending our democracy. Like Kevin Roberts from the Heritage Foundation said, “It will be a bloodless revolution if the left let it be that way.”
With right fists snapping at the air above their empty heads, their fuhrer stares down, thinking, “How stupid can they be to think I am real.”
