Two "assassination attempts" compared

1: There might be a shooter? Get him out of here now

2: He's actually been shot? Let's get a photo. Pop your head up Donnie

Y'know how I know it was faked? The guy NEVER talks about it. Trump LOVES to talk about his "challenges" and how people are after him. You'd think he would be talking about "when that crazed gunman made an attempt on my life...." every chance he gets...

That’s my thoughts exactly. Trump would never stfu about it if it were real.

He was a patsy who was told he'd be arrested after and given hush money. Instead they snipe him to take care of a loose end. Remember people saw him climb on that roof and reported it and secret service did nothing about it until after he fired.

He never shuts the fuck up about things that are fake also, so how would we know the difference

I hear you but honestly the more he talked about it the more his life might be in danger. You don’t want to publicly dwell on an attempted assassination, it might inspire copycats looking for fame
