I'm not surprised though, this staged BS is so obvious. I didn't think he really planned to make an appearance, even to insult them.

Likely another staged shooting.

Anyone know of any other president who has had so many "attempts" on his life and has escaped?

I am extremely skeptical, he needs some sympathy to try and get his numbers up. Funny isn't it, how he has never gone to the dinner before but just decided to go this year, so why? I may be wrong buy I am just not buying it anymore, how could there be so many incompetent gunmen.

MY BS detector is in overdrive.

build his ballroom over his bunker. JFC when does it end?

If it were Eric in the lobby, I'd tend to believe it.

CNN is at FULL ATTENTION, so excited about this. Flashing from reporter to reporter to anchor to anchor....OMG! How exciting is this!! Wolf Blitzer is a legend!

There are guests of the hotel coming and going during the WHCD. It's in a huge ballroom though and access to it can be controlled. I believe it's on a different floor than the main hotel lobby.

passed the place where you have to have a ticket. There is also security before even that. Inside the ballroom people say they heard gun shots. Whatever happened, happened long before the ballroom was reached.

NEWS: The attempted shooter at the White House Correspondent's Dinner is 31 year old Cole Tomas Allen from Torrance, California and he is in custody.

There were 5 LE people firing and not a single bullet hit the suspect. Cops need to eat less donuts.

I mean, good grief. My bullshit meter is off the charts on this one.

the other posters, believe this was a 'staged event' ?

as the party of logic and reason.

This is embarrassing beyond belief.

Do you believe this was a 'staged event' ?

There should be no fertilizer shortage either!

Meanwhile Iran, Trump-Epstein Files, we hate you!, etc.

Get ready for martial law

And do you even know what martial law is?

I am not going to say that the event was staged, but I understand why people would think the event was staged. How was someone able to get a gun in or near the White House Correspondents Dinner, especially when the President, Vice President, Secretary of Defense (War), and other leaders of the country, news media, and entertainment were in the room? How does that happen?

An assassination... the only thing is the teacher from CA.

He seems real. I wish to hell he wouldn't have done it!

Did you hear within the first few minutes into his press conference, he said that is why he needs that ballroom because he needs the security.

he also knows that he's failing and needs another distraction. Why did he attend that dinner to begin with?

to stage the attack? Why would someone fake an attack when the consequences are a good chance of getting killed or spending life in prison?

do you think these attacks were going to happen anyway? Did the SS uncover a plot and let it go ahead?

Nothing about this attack or the others smell right.

And I think that with the administration controlling the DOJ a perp of a sham assassination attempt can easily be shuffled off out of sight, with no consequences.

Nothing but Quanta Magazine and Netflix till my work is on track.
I don’t find the net addictive.

But like a normal orderly (well compared to chaotic libertarian male creeps who embrace chaos..mine is inadvertent and loathesome to me) human looking for some damn structure so I can initate complaint filing as the tech predators have destroyed society, I ended up in this zombified state looking for information where there is some, but goddamn it’s trickle down infonomics.

I do badly when I am thwarted re following my own instincts. And then things go horribly and they seem to go horribly in the world as well as the only people I think make sense (e.g.: Lina Khan) are thwarted by these parasitic Vinod Khoslas, Zuckerbergs, Andreessens and Google creeps. Next time Lina do try criminal liability. These ugly fuckers hate democracy and women’s rights.

My compass broke when this type of learning, the “touch a hot stove and recoil” was thwarted in Oct 2011. And then I just forgot how to think:

This book that that movie Barbarian is based on makes total sense:

I am normally a bit suspicious of any fluffy pseudoscience as it is antithetical to the real effort needed in areas outside the hard sciences. Most of that stuff is right wing coded..but peddled in a form that people don’t recognize immediately as right wing and lightweight (Haidt, Pinker etc). But this is a rare case where it is the only thing that explains why sometimes one looks at stuff one has no scientific or legal or medical training to assess but still calls bullshit

Look at these llms after 15 parasitic years that Fei Fei li type also says that they are worthless
FUCK WORLD MODELS
GTFO of my home and street and life immediately re the trash from 2011 to now is how I see it. Enough. I am not a sucker and never was. Misogynistic fucking parasites.

I will be back..
motherfucking fuckers and brainless. Next time I want evil assholes with enough brains for their own rational self interest not the types of idiots who are going to end up in prison and attach themselves to me and try to invert that.

I saw the origins of this world that handed on trump and tech parasites as king.

See you later du.
Fuckers taking me for a fool just because I am ..I try to seem nice where I am not actually nice (ie with foul bores of unclear levels of male insanity..) or something for some peace and quiet
See…it all got mis wired.
You have less peace and quiet in this case if you

I could not assess the level of crazy and stupid and now I figure well time the crazy and stupid stop thinking that hostage situations work once the old noggin is back.

I'll admit I didn't fully understand the rest of your post, except I got the gist of "stepping back" from the steady stream of bullshit/crazy/intentional fear-induction that is what passes for "news" and "media" today. You might be on to something there. Wishing you and the rest of us the best of luck navigating this shit-stream.

to Trump.

Just wait until the flu pandemic hits us.

What are they doing when these gunmen approach? Playing Wordle on their cell phones?

That's what happens to habitual liars and cons. He has to prove it's NOT a scam.
