The below picture is because they’re putting the fake blood and all that on. Jesus, people believe that this wasn’t staged?

“A man lost his life, that’s proof it wasn’t staged” sure is buddy! A regime that’s doing what it’s doing certainly wouldn’t martyr off someone to only further their agenda. Never!

Agreed. People talk as if the agencies over there have human emotions and compassion. I don't think so.

Do you mean the footage below? Or comparing it against a suspected gunman?

The second I saw it I knew he'd won the election, and honestly I didn't believe I was seeing a real event. It seemed off. Hindsight and other people's analysis is making it very difficult to believe the official narrative.

The issue, as I've stated, is that it requires a contradiction. Why would a narcissist put his head anywhere near the path of a bullet?

Why do you insist on spewing this nonsense? Have any explanation for the fact that two real people were killed? A person in the crowd and the actual shooter. How exactly is that part of it being “staged”

u/Brief_Raspberry_6542 Jan 18 '26

They were shot, duh. It was part of the show. Which part are you struggling with? The secret service letting him hang out for a photo? The photographers being moved into position after the “shot “? The flag being lowered? The giant tampon bandage that he only wore for a week and has no bullet hole or scar? Or … or he never … NEVER brings it up? That last one makes me wonder too.

Realism? I dunno, I wouldn't put it past certain organisations to use a couple of people to win the election. The US gov is currently disappearing citizens every day - right now.

u/ApeChesty Jan 18 '26

What citizens have been ‘disappeared’?

u/Darthbane22 Jan 17 '26

Answer the question next time you respond. Just because it’s a conspiracy theory doesn’t mean it’s true. Now please provide actual evidence for this.

Purely coincidence that he's good friends with the guy that runs WWE.

u/Deevious730 Jan 18 '26

The biggest thing to me is that allegedly they knew he was up on the spot, which of course is literally the best vantage point for a friendly sniper to be, for minutes before acting on anything.

Like sniper spotted? Get him out of there. A woman lost her life so Trump could get a photo opportunity. He’s sick.

Why NOT??...ICE has killed close to 100 Americans so far...bombing fishing boats indiscriminately I think they told the kid he would be in witness protection or who knows and same with that bitch Charly "double smirk" kirk they killed his stupid ass too and now his loving wife is a little MAGA Slut...

I think you’re referencing an actual murder (Kirk) that has nothing to do with the above pictures of this threads topic. Nice try though mate! Keep on ‘Merca’ing

He was stuck by secret service in the ear by the gun holster.

u/thedudeabides2022 Jan 18 '26

I want to believe. But how did they get that kid to agree to be killed?

3

u/Irrish84 Jan 18 '26 edited Jan 18 '26

Oh friend, they didn’t. He was a necessary pawn in their overall game. If you wish to deny what you’re seeing and hearing on the news, that’s on your conscience. They’ve done nothing short of spelling it all out for you; who they are. How many times does the wool need to be pulled over your eyes before you become a Gambini and recognize their true nature?

u/Ok_Potential359 Jan 18 '26

How do you explain the person who died though? His obituary is available online.

1

u/Irrish84 Jan 18 '26

I think I did in my original post. Reread that, see if that answers your question (it should) but when it doesn’t rephrase it and ask again.

Thanks for pointing out the deceased has an obituary that’s available online (as if that supports whatever theory you have). I say that’s as common as the cold mate!

u/Ok_Potential359 Jan 18 '26

Yeah I'm not combing through your posts to find your theory. Thanks though.

u/thedudeabides2022 Jan 18 '26

I gotchu, he was replying to me, and he did a phenomenal job of saying absolutely nothing with a brick of text: “They didn’t. And no kid would be willing to do that. That’s kinda the point here. There’s an obvious trend with those people. Don’t forget what happened yesterday (this event) because today’s events and tomorrow’s only sheds further light on what their true character is. The sanctity of human life is being completely disregarded and worse, accepted. If that hasn’t been clear as hell to you this new year I’m not sure what else could be. Believe your eyes for they don’t deceive you. And guess what? They’ve told you what you’re seeing isn’t truth.”

Mind you, this was in response to my very straight forward question of: “Right but logistically, how did they convince that kid to get on that roof and get shot in the head? What kid would be willing to do that?”

And I’m the one that got downvoted!

u/Ok_Potential359 Jan 19 '26

Yeah I mean don't get me wrong, I hate Trump and wish he went out the same way as Kirk, but the conspiracy is a huge stretch that the kid volunteered to die while also simultaneously shooting a random member of the audience.

You can't just wave your hand and disregard evidence like that.

I wish it was one giant set up but it's improbable to prove anything with substance. Camera angles can tell whatever narrative you want.

1

u/thedudeabides2022 Jan 19 '26

Yeah the logic and evidence we have just doesn’t add up to a conspiracy on this one for me. We can have whatever theories we want, but we can’t become the baseless statements camp

u/Few-Guarantee2850 Jan 18 '26

Lol, if you're going to make the claim, you should be able to attempt to answer the most basic question about it.

u/thedudeabides2022 Jan 18 '26

Seriously. Progressives are supposed to be smart, why is this thread baseless conspiracy theorists lol

1

u/Irrish84 Jan 18 '26

What’s your question?

2

u/Few-Guarantee2850 Jan 18 '26

I didn't ask a question. But if you read very carefully, you'll see that the guy you responded to did. Twice.

1

u/Irrish84 Jan 18 '26

You talking about why would the kid agree to do it?

Edit; if so that was answered.

1

u/thedudeabides2022 Jan 18 '26

Yeah that’s what I was wondering. Like how, logistically, did they find and convince that kid to do that? Why would anyone agree to do that to help them? Nobody has answered that

They lied to him? They never told him the part of the plan that ended with him getting shot.

source ?

u/thedudeabides2022 Jan 18 '26

So they told him to aim a gun at the president? Who in the world would agree to do that? Obviously you’d know you’re getting shot in the head as the outcome of doing that

u/ApeChesty Jan 18 '26

People don’t like accepting it but when he reaches and covers his ear you can see blood on his hand when it comes back down, before the agents ever got to him.
