I know you meant shot in the ear. That's what it looked like to me. Question I have is it sounded like multiple shots. If so, someone else must have been hit. Yet, didn't seem like it when you look/ed at the crowd behind him.

Hearing about it now. Haven't seen anything. Is it bad that my first thought was "bummer, I wish they succeeded" and my second thought was "if it wasn't staged".

I have heard ZERO about this being a possibility so spare us with the "a lot of people thought...".

From Rep. Dan Meuser (R-PA) who was in the front row at the rally near Trump with Rep. Mike Kelly (R-PA) and Pennsylvania GOP Senate Candidate Dave McCormick at the rally.

Meuser says he heard 8-10 shots. Says it appears mulitple people in the crowd may have been hit and were down. Says that it sounded like a .22 or a small caliber weapon.

Turning and turning in the widening gyre
The falcon cannot hear the falconer;
Things fall apart; the centre cannot hold;
Mere anarchy is loosed upon the world,
The blood-dimmed tide is loosed, and everywhere
The ceremony of innocence is drowned;
The best lack all conviction, while the worst
Are full of passionate intensity.

Bronny was the shooter

Too soon?
Seems he's ok. I wouldn't make light of it if he wasn't.

Yes, that's bad that was your first thought.

It's been a fairly common topic on conservative talk radio.

CONFIRMED: Butler County District Attorney tells me one person is BELIEVED to be dead. Donald Trump is okay, he tells me. No information about the shooter right now.
@WTAE...

UPDATE: District Attorney says he believes the person who died was “someone in the crowd.”

Hmmm. Did you hear that or do you spend a lot of time listening to conservative talk radio? I'm not going to criticize/ridicule you if you do. I'm just wondering.

That was my concern in my first post. Sorry to hear/read this!

Not often, but occasionally. I heard them talk about it within the last 2 weeks on the Clay Travis and Buck Sexton show.

I usually listen to NPR if I'm doing talk radio while driving, though.

To be overly candid, I felt (and said) back in February that there was a damn good chance neither Trump nor Biden would be on the ballot in November.
Two of the strong considerations I had were an assassination attempt and/or massive medical condition/issue.
Good on Biden and Trump for proving me wrong so far - and still standing strong (well - standing :? ).

Dems? Pubs? The USA?
All of the above?

Democrats drinking the blood of children to become immortal or some shit was also a "fairly common topic on conservative talk radio".
