Historic days for Donald Trump
Former President Donald Trump was nearly assassinated at a rally in Butler County, Pennsylvania, when 20-year-old suspect Thomas Matthew Crooks opened fire from a nearby rooftop, shooting him in the ear. Two days later, Judge Eileen Cannon dismissed Trump’s classified documents lawsuit, finding the appointment of special counsel Jack Smith unconstitutional.
“This is probably one of the craziest series of events I’ve ever seen in politics.” Stu Burguiere of BlazeTV.
“A bullet just goes through your ear, inch “To be able to calmly stand up after escaping death, raise your fist and show America that this hasn’t just hurt you, that we’re going to keep moving forward, is one of the greatest moments I’ve ever seen, the most beautiful moments,” he told Jill.
Stu said Trump’s bold move will likely be a “shock” to him — meaning people who never would have considered voting for him before “might cross that line for the first time because there’s something really, really American about the way he does things.” [Trump] There was a reaction.”
Additionally, Stu suspects that the mainstream media has gone soft on Trump for a while and will “conveniently forget all the rhetoric” they’ve been spreading about his similarities to Hitler.
“Calling someone Hitler over and over again creates the impression among unstable people that the right and moral thing to do is to get rid of him,” Stu said, suggesting media rhetoric was at least partly to blame for Trump’s near-assassination.
Republicans unite at Milwaukee Republican National Convention as anti-Trump protests intensify
Blaze Media senior political editor Christopher Bedford, who is currently in Milwaukee for the Republican National Convention, said the weekend’s events appear to be uniting the right.
“Republicans were already going to come into this week far more united than Democrats, but the historic, deadly attack and assassination attempt we saw on television on Saturday only strengthened that unity even further,” Bedford said, adding that united Republicans range from the combative Nikki Haley to 50 Cent.
As for Trump’s running mate, Ohio Sen. J.D. Vance, Bedford argued that while the majority of convention attendees seemed “ecstatic about the decision,” some — “some of the old-school Tea Party conservatives” — were less pleased.
“The selection of Vance is a testament to the young senator’s leadership at 39 years old. [years old]”He’s become a telegenic, intellectual rising star in his first term, and if elected president, he could signal to the MAGA movement that there is some kind of future, a potential successor, after Trump’s second term,” Bedford explains.
But while there is unity among Republicans, there seems to be equal unity among Trump haters, with footage showing large anti-Trump protests in the streets of Milwaukee, where the Trump-Hitler rhetoric shows no sign of abating.
Blaze Media national correspondent Julio Rosas told Gilles that at a press conference after the march to the Republican National Convention, protest leaders were “blaming Trump” and perhaps his “popularity.” [is] People rose up in the aftermath of the assassination attempt.
“One speaker said that, generally speaking, he opposes assassination attempts against any politician, but added that it was undeniable that Trump’s rhetoric, policies and actions have justified political violence by white supremacists,” Rosas reported.
Secret Service failure?
At the rally where President Trump was shot, police and the Secret Service have come under intense scrutiny after a group of passersby saw an armed gunman climb onto a roof but reported the threat, but their reports were ignored.
Jill plays footage of an eyewitness telling the BBC’s Gary O’Donoghue: “[pointed] Crooks reported to police and the Secret Service that he was being shot at by a man crawling up the roof, and even told police that there was a man on the roof with a rifle, but nothing was done until Crooks began firing.
He also asked, “Why would the Secret Service all On these roofs?”
Jason Buttrill, a former Pentagon intelligence analyst and senior research associate at Glenn Beck, called the situation “absurd” and “chaotic.”
“I worked with the Secret Service,” said Jason, “and I don’t understand how this could have happened,” because the service “shows up weeks in advance” to do an “on-site review” to develop a “multi-layered security plan,” especially when presidential protection is involved.
This security plan included setting up “firing positions” “outside the perimeter,” and the Secret Service director’s claim that he was “not responsible for anything outside the perimeter” has been completely proven false.
All things considered, it’s inconceivable that the Secret Service didn’t consider the rooftop where the gunman opened fire a risk area prior to the rally.
Similarities between Teddy Roosevelt and Donald Trump’s near-assassination
Glenn BeckAs a history buff, he couldn’t help but notice some similarities between Donald Trump’s near-death experience and that of Teddy Roosevelt in 1912.
Glenn said that when Roosevelt was shot, the bullet “did not enter a lung,” but rather “lost between two ribs because the speech bubble and glasses the president had in his front coat pocket “caught the bullet,” adding that Roosevelt “continued to speak” despite his wounds.
“The way Donald Trump handled the assassination attempt is almost exactly the same as what Theodore Roosevelt did,” he told Jill. “When Donald Trump stood up and said, ‘Wait, wait, wait,’ and then he looked at the crowd and pumped his fist in the air and said, ‘Fight!’ I immediately thought of Theodore Roosevelt.”
Gill agreed, adding that Trump “never runs away from a fight,” which “is something Teddy Roosevelt was known for.”
“I think it was a really good decision,” Glenn said of Trump’s decision to choose J.D. Vance as his running mate.
Glenn said Vance has the potential to carry on Trump’s legacy and counter claims from the left that Trump refuses to leave office.
“You could interpret this as Donald Trump saying, ‘I know I can only be president for four years,'” Glenn said. That means that if Vance were to run for president in 2028, he could actually accomplish many of the things Trump has set out to do — things that Trump knows he can’t accomplish in a single term.
