    The current fucking around that America is dealing with is probably FBI/CIA… Like all of it… Them manipulating and using Epstein… Trump… It seems like feds are throwing a coup.of America and using the right and left psychologically as a tool.

      1. the is the obvious assumption so perhaps it was an attempt at a false flag. Kill Trump, someone succeeds him, gains his supporters and the support of those who think the left did it.

      2. he supported Trump until… Pick your poison. Epstein revelations. Some other policy position that he waffled on.

      3. so mentally ill he backed Trump but then did this in some sort of fugue state. “Trump has been replaced by aliens. If I shoot the guy pretending to be him the ruse will be over and I will have saved the country!”

      Off the top of my head.

      Anyone who paid attention at the time could have told you that Crooks was a shitpost conservative who engaged in a shitpost shooting.

      And yes, this was inconvenient for Trump, so the conservatives instantly stopped talking about it.

      The only reason it’s coming up again, is the Epstein emails that have recently come out. And the bombshells yet to come.

      Old fucker Tucker here, is already on the outs with mainstream conservative groupthink. So is trying to position himself for a possible comeback. Not knowing that it will never work.

      See, Tucker is a loser who was fired for costing Fox a shit ton of money. Conservatives care about that shit.

    Btw I heard an idea that everyone is fighting for Charlie Kirk’s followers: Carlson, Shapiro, Fuentes, etc. That’s why there’s so many weird interviews and headlines as they try to get the follower’s attention. Kinda makes sense.

    Tucker Carlson has no loyalty to America anymore. What loyalty he might have ever had is questionable.

    He’s here to hurl shit and he’s looking for fans.

    The last media talking head to start speaking ill of Trump was Charlie Kirk if I’m not mistaken.

    Like I’m not saying Tucker is going to have an assassination attempt but it sure would be convenient for that to happen so Trump could have a distraction from the Epstein stuff… Which coincidentally was also a big talking point right before Charlie Kirks assassination…

        In a video with Ben Shapiro he questioned if the news we were hearing regarding Israel and Gaza could be trusted. Shapiro looked mortified that a fellow conservative would even entertain such a thought. It’s been alluded that was the moment that Kirk sealed his fate.

      It sure would be wild if I felt really conflicted right now. It is a good thing I don’t Mr FBI Agent Reading This.

      But a LOT of the right wing and even magat base are turning on trump by the day. He is actively killing the economy (so all their donors), once again has demonstrated he can’t get anyone else elected, and actively hurt their careers by fucking up the shutdown so badly that even schumer can’t take ALL the blame.

      Combine that with his well documented health issues and the odds are good he doesn’t survive until 2028… for multiple reasons (again, what up Mr FBI Agent Reading This?). So a LOT of chuds are trying to position themselves as his successor.

    Knew the gloves would come off with the far right once the pant shitter was found out to have a penchant for kids who were still young enough to wear pull-ups.

    Well, yeah…

    If the people in charge of security were honest, they’d be fired. Anyone that doesn’t say what trump wants to hear get fired.

    So when it comes to stuff like this, no real actions are taken to prevent it from happening again. Because you won’t acknowledge why it happened.

    As the right fractures more and more, this will keep happening. Maga has always been a loose coalition of different groups with different goals. And trumps not even trying to keep them all happy anymore. They all thought they’d be the priority, and now they’re pissed and feel used.
