There are only 2 options in my view:

A. This was a clumsy failed assassination attemt by the bad guys.
Or
B. More likely a planned assassination attempt intercepted by a sting operation to 'catch them all'.

It was both, in my view.

The bad guys really did want to kill Trump, but they have suffered severe losses of their sharpest leaders and compromise of their operations. Their assassination attempt was thus clumsy, but it might still have succeeded.

However it was intercepted and converted to a sting operation, insuring its failure and casting a big net to catch more of the evil doers.

The reporter finding his ear to be in nearly normal condition implies he wasn't shot or it's a different person.

A magazine reporter has revealed she was allowed to inspect Donald Trump's recently shot at ear during an interview, saying it was 'normal and incredible and fine'.

A 20-year-old gunman attempted to kill the former president on July 13 at a rally in Butler, Pennsylvania, only to graze Trump's ear, which was left bloodied.

New York Magazine reporter Olivia Nuzzi made the ear inspection when she profiled Trump in Florida a few weeks after the shooting but couldn't help remarking upon the condition of Trump's ear.

Trump tapped the spot where he was shot, which led Nuzzi to write: 'An ear had never appeared to have gone through less'.

'The particular spot that he identified with his tap was pristine. I scanned carefully the rest of the terrain. It looked normal and incredible and fine', she added.

It's as if we're watching an old fashioned Western, with cowboys, Indians, Colt-45's, sheriffs, and bad guys, where the good guys wear white hats and help little old women across the street, while the bad guys were black hats, beat their dogs, and steal the purses from little old ladies, laughing maniacally (like Kamala?) all the way. It's becoming increasingly obvious to almost everyone watching who will win the shootout at high noon on main street, and who will be thrown in jail or hung from a tall tree by a short rope.

I am becoming increasingly convinced that the white hats have already gained the upper hand and replaced many prominent black hat agents with actors deliberately over acting the dastardly ways of the black hats, in order to get the audience rooting for the white hats and calling for the black hats to be eliminated.

This is not just another political election ... not even a potpourri of elections across several key Western nations. It's a major restructuring of the world order, including its financial, economic, monetary, agriculture, medical, scientific, political, military, industrial, transportation, computer, and energy systems. Broad support is being built for such changes. Broad support will be needed.

Let's do what we can to not only survive the coming storm, but also to build a better civilization on the other side.

As I posted a few weeks ago, when preparing some veggies in my kitchen I sliced the tip of my finger with a fairly sharp knife.

1. It hurt!
2. There was blood all over the place.

If any reporter examined my fingertip now, they'd definitely say it was 'normal and incredible and fine'.

I did the same thing about a month ago. I sliced a small section of the tip of my finger right off with, of all things, a piece of plastic. It bled like the dickens. It healed fairly quickly and there is no sign whatsoever of any injury. At this point I could not even tell you for certain which finger it was. Only that it was on my left hand.

The more blood flow there is to a region of the body, the more it bleeds (duh), the faster it heals and there is less likelihood of scarring. Mouth wounds are also that way, for instance.

In contrast, scrape your shin. It hurts, does not bleed much, takes a while to heal and leaves a scar.

• “Americans Will Be SHOCKED By New Assassination Info!” - Says Dem Senator:

Source: https://youtube.com/watch?v=QVaJQ8ad8QE

During a recent interview in the halls of Congress, Connecticut Democratic Senator Richard Blumenthal announced that the American people will be both shocked and appalled over revelations to come about the Secret Service lapses that transpired prior to the Butler, Pennsylvania assassination attempt on Donald Trump. Blumenthal refused to elaborate, leaving the rest of us to speculate over what as-yet-unreleased information could further shock the public. Jimmy says he fears the Secret Service will merely be thrown under the bus as incompetents, allowing for the privatization of presidential security details.

Another assassination attempt on Trump

This may need its own thread.

As reported here Obviously a developing story...

The issue is Trump can no longer trust the Secret Service to protect him anymore. They're all compromised.
If he hasn't done so already he needs to hire a group of badass ex-special forces and pay them VERY well so they can't be bribed, to protect him.

Well, wow. They've very quickly found the guy (after a witness took a photo of the guy's Nissan car plates) and arrested him. So he's in custody, and they have the gun (an AK), his backpack, and a GoPro camera.

It seems to be the the real thing here. It looks very much like they've acted quickly, professionally and efficiently, and an immediate press conference was exactly the right thing to do.

What this all strongly suggests, of course, is that really was a lone gunman, with no inside assistance at all.

(But don't hold your breath until some folks out there start saying that this was all staged... )

I recall reading somewhere that the Secret Service has special legal authorities, to commandeer an area where a protectee will be, controlling who comes and goes, with rights to search people and their property in such areas, and with additional immunity from lawsuits and prosecutions if any property or persons are harmed. Ordinary private security, no matter how well paid, lacks such authorities and immunities, so is hamstrung, and anyone relying primarily on such security, such as Trump, could be sued and prosecuted into oblivion by malicious lawfare targeting their security.

Agreed. Psychologically unstable, lone gunman. This one wasn't planned.

That's my initial reaction, too, and the immediate press conference reinforces this hypothesis.

Dang - that's a challenge that I might be unable to resist tackling

Okay, according to this post on X one of the many servants of Satan - in this instance, Meta/Facebook - have, or are "actively deleting Ryan Wesley South's pages".

I've saved the video compilation that had been created by a diligent citizen, and it's here, so we have some sort of record, somewhere. Apparently he's also supposed to have appeared in one of those 'Azov' promotional pieces. Another NAFO moron (victim) it would seem

[Bruce G Charlton]

What really happened here (if anything significant really happened) is something we will probably never know for sure - but I think the probabilities must depend on how we infer that those who are in a position to arrange, allow or prevent such attempts are likely to regard the possibility of a Trump victory.

What follows is speculation - I certainly don't know any of this!

My impression is that Trump this-time-around is the preferred Presidential candidate of a significant, and perhaps Zionist, group within the "king makers" of US politics.

Trump in 2024 is a pro-Establishment character.

After all, Trump has already been President for four years, so we know what to expect; and we know that DT did nothing significant to stop or reverse the continued progress of globalist totalitarianism.

When it came to the Big Issues, his record is as bad as anyone: Trump was the President during the unprecedented horrors of the 2020 lockdowns, then the BLM events (which still resonate strongly and having affected legislation, regulation and everyday working practices, in many countries and international institutions), he was/is extremely and proudly pro-vax; and (perhaps most importantly to the ruling elites of the USA) Trump is more completely in favour of open-ended and unconditional support for Israel than the current administration.

I would imagine that there are plenty of the most powerful totalitarians who regard Trump as "a safe pair of hands" for their agenda - with the added advantage of convincing many would-be opponents of this agenda to refrain from individual initiatives and "trust the plan" (as QAnon said) when it comes to a Trump administration.

In other words; I would guess that there are powerful US Establishment factions that want DT dead - and others that are determined to keep him alive.

If I am correct, and the Establishment is divided over Trump then it may not be possible to fix the 2024 election in the same way as 2024. Removing this option may be why we have seen the deployment of violence, with an assassination attempt - and now a thwarting of one.


[Note: I think the Establishment in 2024 is far more divided than in 2020 - although naturally they try to hide it from the little people; probably because (especially since February 2022) The World is increasingly divided between The West and Not-West (BRICS etc). Things look very different now than in early summer of 2020 - when the leadership class of the entire world entered - as if in lock-step - into a global lockdown. ]
