Historically, more often than not, when a narcissistic megalomaniac is victim of a close call of targeted violence against them, rather than them becoming more empathetic with the sadly large swathe of humanity that also often faces targeted violence, they just double down on their own paranoia.
I won't shed any tears for Trump if and when he bites the dust, but it would've been far worse if the assassination was successful. It's not like the far right and Project 2025 would just disappear with Trump, not to mention guys like JD Vance are quite capable of taking his place and with less baggage.
Nah with how centralised the Republican effort is around Trump atm killing him would throw them into disarray for multiple years until they were able to summon up a similarly charismatic demagouge which outside of trump they simply don't have atm.
Part of me thinks the MAGA enthusiasm is a personality cult about Trump and can't be replicated. But you may be right about Republicans being capable of carrying his agenda post-Trump.
Of course Morpheus says that as his shades reflect Neo being held at gunpoint.
But that's in the Matrix
We're all in the Matrix.
Donald Trump is a pedophile, it doesn't matter how many blood capsules he pops to pretend a BB Gun hit him.
If you get shot in the asshole, then depending on the calibre you potentially could be more of an asshole.
He didn't get shot, he got hit by glass according to the secret service.
IDK. If you actually hit, he'll never do anything bad anymore for the rest of his life.
His cronies might though. What if this dumbass thought he would actually make him a martyr to make his cause stronger. Who am I kidding. They aren't that smart.
He doesn't show anyone any empathy so no point in me doing so.
