    A low velocity rifle would explain why more of the crowd were not hurt, and they would lose accuracy over a long range.

    Fuckin’ woke twats with their pissy snowflake guns.

    I’m happy to go on record as saying that I would have been totally ok with him being seriously hurt or worse. No, I don’t think shooting political opponents is good.. but he’s embraced violent people and ideologies and if he becomes a victim of that sort of thing then.. y’know.. kinda low on the list of things to give a fuck about. And I would just love it if at least one prominent political opponent of his would come out and say that (you can bet that they’re all thinking it).

    Apparently he was hit by glass from the teleprompter.

    That's the election won for Trump. That picture will go down as one of the most iconic political pictures of all time. Yet again a dictator comes power via great PR.

    This is a stupid take. One, it's a slippery slope. Two, it only helps him and his cause politically and makes him a martyr.

    All a bit Bob Roberts really.

    2nd term for Trump right there. ‘Murica.

    Slippery slope to what?

    And he’s already a martyr to his cause. He’s been playing the victim since the start… blah blah everyone is out to get him. Not a single person will vote for him because of this.. those people were already entirely on his cunty train.

    Like I said…. super super low on the list of things to give a fuck about. And there’s now wrong in anyone saying so.

    Whatever you think of Trump, having a presidential candidate assassinated in the most powerful democracy in the world would not be good at all for liberal democracy and political stability. The country is already on a knife edge, it's a conspiracy-theory-riddled, gun-heavy, culturally-divided massive nuclear power which fortunately has, at least so far, had a sufficiently robust constitutional structure to keep the nutsies in check (even when they have become President). Civil war in the US is not a far-fetched fantasy and its in all the world's interests for this not to escalate. I wouldn't want to live there, but the fact is chaos in the US would be a big problem for the whole planet, and plausibly an existential one. Biden's reaction to this so far has seemed to shown him at his best: measured, sensible and non-partisan.

    I really couldn’t have given a shit if this had been worse.

    He’s an odious criminal who is going to inflict far worse on the world.

    And given Bidens current state, he was going to win anyway.

    You would give a shit if America descended into civil war.

    Surprised that nobody I’ve seen or heard has mentioned that Trump appears to shout “fight, fight” a few times as he’s being led away. He said the same while winding up the idiots to storm Congress.

    Edited: Guardian mentions it. But no reference on BBC website or news.

    Slippery slope to the MAGA morons returning the favour in some way. "You kill our politician? We'll kill yours". We need America to be better than that.

    Anyway, it was good to see Biden put politics aside and wish Reagan a full recovery…
