Trump attempted assassination at Rally Today?! He was bleeding

[Gunnar]

I think it more likely that the shooter had a personal vendetta against Trump himself and couldn't care less about what other consequences might result from it.

I think it more likely that the shooter had heard, and heard, and heard, and heard the grossly irresponsible talk about Trump being an existential threat to democracy and Hitler and an evil racist and a KGB agent and a fascist and a murderous dictator - and was trying to be a hero and save America from this evil monster.

I hope that the least likely motivation for this act was an attempt by MAGA to stage a false flag scenario in order to blame Biden and the Democrats for the attempt. Can we safely rule that out? I hope so!

I highly doubt that you can. Good God!

As you well know, I don't agree with you that fears of Trump being an existential threat to democracy and desire to become a dictator are unfounded and irresponsible. I'm both bewildered and sorry that you still can't see that. His intent to become a dictator comes from his own stupid mouth, for Pete's sake!

Thanks. I'm drunk. But I do like "stupidist" as a noun.

They reflect the best data at each given point in time.

Exactly. And Trump would run away with it if the election were tomorrow.

But it's not.

I’m not sure what point you’re trying to make here. Anything can happen, Apple can go bankrupt tomorrow too. Would you like to take that bet?

Biden is in a huge hole, larger than anything on those charts from 2024 and 2020. And over time it is increasingly unlikely he will climb out of that hole to defeat Trump. Those who argue otherwise are delusional and hoping for something like a miracle.

If it’s so important to beat Trump, we need more than wishful thinking.

On this we agree. But gambling and playing the odds for money is the very definition of wishful thinking.

Until we invent a Time Machine, playing the odds is exactly what both parties have to do. You can bet on Biden or you can bet on someone else. The question again is, what is the best bet?

Sunk cost fallacy is a real trap. But at some point it gets so bad that you have to stop the losses and switch strategy. We’re at that point with Biden.

The more he lies, the larger his crowd gets. It's a hex I tell you. The curse of America is here. I mean, he somehow dodges every single bullet sent his way, metaphorically or literally.

Mutant mind control of the gullible and shifty.
