Shots were reportedly fired at a Trump campaign rally today. Trump was quickly escorted off-stage, bleeding from his right ear but otherwise apparently unharmed. This happened less than an hour ago, and the story is still developing.

If he survived, it's just more proof that the evil live long.

Shots fired at a Trump rally is not synonymous with shots fired at Trump.

Trump was hit.He appears to have survived because it was in the ear.

News is a bit muddled?
1. Who is the shooter?
2. What was their motivation? Was trump the target
3. Who are the 2 dead?
4. Why was their blood on trump?
5. Was he hit by a stray bullet?

The article provided said:

Quote:

According to the Associated Press, Butler County district attorney Richard Goldinger said in a phone interview that the suspected gunman was dead as was at least one rally attendee.

Trump was rushed off stage and the rally ended soon thereafter. Images from the scene appeared to show blood on Trump's face, though it is unclear whose blood it is.

Emphasis on the underlined.

If Donald Trump got shot they'd be saying Donald Trump got shot, not there's been a shooting at a Trump rally.

Either someone who really hates trump took things to far....

Or it's a stunt by the MAGA's. Not sure what my opinion is on it just yet.

Right.

The gunman was probably out to murder the guy standing next to Trump...Trump's suit case carrying flunky assistant - and missed...and hit Trump by mistake....because Trump's valet is more likely and important target for assassination than...the ex and possible future POTUS. :lol:

^How much angel dust were you on when you were using THIS kinda logic?

OK...I get it. If THE ONLY news outlet you had access to only said "shots fired at a Trump rally"...it COULD mean two yahoos in the audience shooting each other.

But even in the first few confusing seconds most TV stations were saying "Trump injured at a rally...we dont know what happened" and the vids showed blood on the side of his head. So from the get go it was safe for even us non experts to assume that its an assassination attempt on the candidate.
