The Shooting, 13 July 2024


Yesterday, a young 20 year old Republican, took a shot or more, at Donald J. Trump the former President and current candidate for the Republican party. The man missed and nicked Trump’s ear, and Trump was covered in secret service agents and taken to a hospital. In the process one, maybe two others died and a third was injured. It is vital to remember the young man who did the shooting is dead, shot by the Secret Service agents protecting Trump, and that he was a Republican.

As the news rolls on and the reporting continues, I am sure Trump will try to use it as a badge of martyrdom of some sort, or to promote himself as a hero of the people, he isn’t folks. He is very lucky to be alive for he turned his head at just the precise second. That being said, the last Politician to be shot at in this way by a lone gunmen was Ronald Reagan. Let me say this now and let me make it clear to all Americans, Trump is no Reagan, he is a man who talks and walks anger, he lies, he will try anything in his power to avoid going to prison for all he has done.

Before Trump, we did not have all the hate and animosity we now have in the American Public domain or population. His words and lies and actions caused this, not, anyone else except the shooter. Trump has constantly lied, cheated and hurt people, to get what he wants, most of his life. The truth is if Trump had stayed in his Tower in New York instead of running for President, this country would have been better off, period. With his words and actions, Trump has riled up crowds, called forth the Oath Keepers and Proud Boys, Stormed the US Capital and destroyed it, stolen secret and top secret documents, harassed sexually women, is a 34 times convicted criminal, and facing 54 more counts across the country for election interference and more. Do not confuse this shooting and this shooter with any liberal or Democrat, he was a Republican.

Do I believe, in what the shooter did, no I don’t and I condemn such violence in America. Yet, as a citizen of America and a Disabled Veteran, I can honestly say, I saw it coming. You can’t keep spouting angry, mad, words at the world, and rilling up people and not expect this to happen. Trump’s stands on many issues are crazy and too conservative even for many of his own party. He has raised the anger level in America to a fever pitch and this is the result. In the end the shooting incident, will be replayed again and again on tv and talked about for a lifetime I am sure, but at no time is this the fault of anyone other than, Donald J. Trump and a young 20 year old man. Trump is indeed lucky he is not deceased today, the bullet missed him by less then a quarter of an inch. There will probably be others who attempt this too, in different ways, Trump has created a divided nation, rilled up people constantly and he won’t stop. Do not think, this shooting was political in nature or backed by the Democrats or Joe Biden, it wans’t. Although that will probably be the line Trump will use. It would be a false statement and accusation if he does. As we move on in the 2024 Election Process, we must remember, the anger and animosity being raised across our land, must be controlled and violent acts like this must be halted. I do not want Trump to be President again and I will never deny that fact, but, I do not approve of anyone trying to gun someone down.

The Trauma the shooting brings to America and it’s people as well as the world to see, will stain this country in the world’s eyes. It will be used by some to get ahead or push an agenda, to try to get Trump back on Office, that should not happen folks, Trump is more dangerous than the 20 year old who shot at him. Trump ust be beaten at the ballot box !
