Journalist Salena Zito was in the stands on Saturday because she was pre-scheduled to interview President Trump on the return trip to Bedminster, NJ. Obviously that interview never took place. However, today on the flight to Milwaukee, Wisconsin, President Trump talked exclusively to Mrs. Zito, who writes for the Washington Examiner.
A reflective President Trump seemingly begins to absorb how fortunate he was to have the protection of God in a split second.
Salena Zito – Former President Donald Trump has completely rewritten his convention speech in light of the assassination attempt against him on Saturday and will call on Thursday for a new effort at national unity.
[…] “The speech I was going to give on Thursday was going to be a humdinger,” he said, “Had this not happened, this would’ve been one of the most incredible speeches” aimed mostly at the policies of President Joe Biden. “Honestly, it’s going to be a whole different speech now.”
[…] Trump said people all across the country from different walks of life and different political views have called him, and he noted that he was saved from death because he turned from the crowd to look at a screen showing data he was using in his speech.
“That reality is just setting in,” he said. “I rarely look away from the crowd. Had I not done that in that moment, well, we would not be talking today, would we?”
[…] “This is a chance to bring the whole country, even the whole world, together. The speech will be a lot different, a lot different than it would’ve been two days ago,” he said.
[…] Trump hailed Corey Comperatore, the former fire chief who was shot and killed at the rally, and two other supporters, David Dutch and James Copenhaver, who were wounded and are recovering at a local hospital in stable condition.
Trump said his decision to raise his hand when the Secret Service was leading him off stage was to let the people there know he was OK, “And that America goes on, we go forward, that we are strong,” he said. (Read More)

The assassination attempt brings up the question:
What is the “succession plan” in case Trump is unable to continue for any reason?
A great man but still just a man. Any number of things could take him out of the race.
Is there a Plan B? Another on deck, just in case?
November 5 is less than 4 months away.
(And the Secret Service is doubling down with asinine excuses while their bureaucratic DEI incompetence from top to bottom remains, it would be naive to expect it to suddenly become competent. Watching clips of overweight female agents fumbling around is nauseating, some things are better done by strong men, its past time to dispense with the DEI lies.)
My trust lies with god!
Psalm 146. Especially 1-4
The reports that local law enforcement failed their responsibility to secure the shooter building illuminate a much greater competency crisis in the US.
Widespread erosion of competencies in all areas, from families and cultures to education to everywhere else.
Including leadership.
DIE is an obvious culprit, it started with feminism, affirmative action, etc. that steamrolled America after the Civil Rights Act of 1964, but now it has morphed from equal opportunity to neo-Marxist “equity” regardless of merit.
And here we are. The incompetent Secret Service leadership and agents are not leaving the agency. DIE tokens in police leadership and officers are entrenched. And God help anyone who speaks out about the problem.
We are in a clash of cultures that is nearing its apex. There is a mind-set that despises merit and achievement. To be a progressive is to
Marxist, progressive, woke, it doesn’t matter: it means be the great leveler, relaxer of standards, promoter of the mediocre, the dumbing down of curiosity to keep the masses contained and malleable.
A conflict of visions as Dr. Sowell would say and wrote about.
It’s amazing at how spot on he was with his analysis.
DEI is a lying spirit.
It’s just another head of the progressive hydra. Which… is the original lie: that man, through knowledge, can perfect himself and bring about heaven on earth.
No matter how many times this notion fails in spectacular, murderous fashion, we still believe it.
Or otherwise known as the Unconstrained Vision of mankind.
Yes! From the “Father of Lies.”
100%
I’m an older guy and so agree with what you said about the erosion of competencies. The quality of workmanship, pride in what you produce, seemingly not caring if it gets done or not. I’ve seen all that erode over the last several years. For me it’s kind of sickening and a sign of a country going down. UNLESS, something happens to turn it around. There is an awakening underway which may be part of that turn around. Pray for guidance from the Holy Spirit.
The underlying problem where young people are concerned is that adults and institutions run and overseen by adults have failed them in so, so many ways.
Many parents have failed them, schools at all levels have failed them, the government has failed them, politicians have failed them, religious institutions have failed them, the media have failed them.
Many parents are doing their best to raise their children to be responsible fully capable functioning adults but parents are at the mercy of the institutions that are working directly against those parents.
The only answer is for parents to put their children 1st in every way and if that means walking away from state schools and every institution that no longer supports parents and children…then they should.
Most won’t do this because they too have become too trusting of the people and institutions that run the country.
I know many who lament the public school system that are unable to pay for private education. Yet, most of them have at least one new car/car payment. We are presently dealing with generations of people who have no concept of sacrifice. My son is sometimes embarrassed about our thirty year old car. He doesn’t realize that I could be driving a top of the line Mercedes, had I not chosen to spend the first three years of his life at home with him, and subsequently keep him out of public school.
For those that are serious about moving their children out of the public system, I strongly recommend tithing. God will honor and bless that decision in ways that will surprise you. Psalm 34:8 Taste and see that the Lord is good!
Excellent description of what has taken place in our society. We as a people, have relied on prescriptions of altered discipline and self serving with no self awareness. Very sad actually.
No it’s more like in prison where the guards stand down and allow the cameras to break in a certain area where a stabbing occurs to take out another prisoner. Exactly what happened. A purposeful neglect to allow the assasin full access. Gave the hijacker the keys to the car he wanted to steal. Not negligence.
Fire the entire Secret Service and restaff the Agency from the ranks of the Conservative Treehouse!!!
The Pepsi gal looked away as the assasin had a free pass to that roof and 6 free shots… It’s clear. She was Bidens top gal for 20 years. These people believe in by any means necessary and taqiyah where lies are OK if they advance the cause.
was she the one who watched him swim in the nude? maybe she did it willingly. Yuck.
plan b “War”
Andrew Breitbart said it best
Trump is with us until Almighty Jehovah God says otherwise. Scripture is clear, He has numbered all of our days. But you are right, any number of things can happen. Next man up, yes. But who? It will take a generation to restore what the marxists have nearly destroyed. It can’t be business as usual after what we’ve just been through as a people and movement.
Junior
I keep getting this gut feeling that Biden will pardon Trump. I’ve felt this way for months but now it makes more sense. He can atone for his reckless hate speech and look magnanimous, taking the high road or something.
You read it here.
I’ve thought the same thing, because then Joe could pardon Hunter and not look so bad.
I doubt Trump would accept a pardon from Joe.
Idk his speech tonight was a complete joke pretty much blaming only the right for violence
Other people are putting words into Biden’s mouth. The people behind him will never do this.
Biden has NEVER been magnanimous.
A truly historic President: a small, corrupt, dull, lying, partisan hack politician. In the words of the “Light Bringer”, never underestimate the ability of Joe to —— — — up.
For satan disguises him self as an angel of light.
A cold, calculating salamander from the DC swamp. Joe didn’t amass a fortune on a Senator’s salary alone. He is always looking for an angle.
more propaganda like FOX news having the Liar of benghazi that nstuttering blond to spew more lies. FOX is pathetic. Marie is her name. Shpuld be banished.
I have serious doubts about this prediction. Namely Biden has never been magnanimous in his life!
I caught part of Biden’s address. I think he feels he dodged a bullet, too!
Indeed. It’s a Forrest Gump moment:
“And just like that…
…no one was talking about replacing Biden…”
wikileaks under POS is his portrait.
That’s why all Trump’s cases are at state level. Pardons are for federal crimes.
Exactly. This is why a**hole Mueller referred these “possible infractions” to the SDNY and D.C. courts. It was to set aside some aces to play down the road in the event Trump survived the Russia-Russia hoax. I remember Sundance pointing this out at the time.
Pardon? For what? President Trump did nothing wrong!!! Jeeeze
Exactly right! He’s an innocent man, unjustly bulldozed by marxist psychopaths that are terrified of him and who & what he represents.
No Sh*t!
Besides, the sick-minded ingrates that wind up and point the Biden mannequin every morning, would never, ever, consider a move like this.
Nope they are ruthless hyenas and will continue to work in gangs to steal whatever they can from the lions.
Pardon Trump for what? Trump’s done nothing wrong.
Biden cannot attain that high road that you speak of…he’s down in the ditch with the rest of the Cabal.
Sure Joe, pardon Trump because you think it will boost your chances. And Joe, don’t forget that everything you have done to Trump to boost your standing has backfired. So, yes, pardon away and lose even more of your hateful supporters by being compassionate because the left given the chance to run over Trump, would also reverse and run over him again.
Trump can say whatever he wants after that ordeal.
The GOPe better figure out they have absolutely zero room for waffling or conspiring against him.
That isn’t going to stop them.
There’s too much money involved.
They depend on the government (all levels) to fund their lifestyles.
Put all RINOS on alert. Any more commisserating with people who want you dead is not allowed and a price will be paid in next elections. Clean out the RINOS now…..
“Donald Trump always remembers my grandkids. I have four. Last time I talked to him, over the phone in the spring, I told him about my latest, Rocco. He replied, “I love my grandkids, too. I love being around them.”
It was just before six o’clock on Saturday when he greeted me. He was about to go onstage for a rally about 50 miles from my hometown of Pittsburgh. Inside the tent with me were forty local cops—men and women.
Many of them told him they were looking forward to him being president.
“Thank you so much for your service,” he said.
He was in great spirits. At rallies like these, he always is.
“https://www.thefp.com/p/salena-zito-assassination-attempt-trump
He may love law enforcement. This proves they do not all love him. This was allowed to happen.
By Obama-Biden’s incompetent, but diverse, Secret Service leadership. However, I’m sure they’ll find some straight white male to blame.
Of course, they shot him dead on the roof of the unsecured building after looking at him through a scope for three minutes, all while bystanders were recording him and pointing out to police and Secret Service agents. And by golly, they found one that even registered as a Republican….you know, in a state with an Open Primary, where the Democrat wing of the Unipaty told their brainless zombies to switch parties and vote for Haley.
They got their schmuck; I bet this young man truly believed his handler when his handler said, “Hey, yeah, man, don’t worry, it’s all cool. Yep, two trees and the ladder will be behind it. Don’t worry; even if they see you, the team will ensure you’re not bothered until you get shots off…ok, you got it Boss Man. Oh, you like being called Boss Man, Boss Man.
What? No, once you get him, you will have ample opportunity to go right back down that ladder, yeah, yeah, the same one….I’ll be there waiting to get you out, don’t worry, it will be hectic, no one will even notice you.”
this is so true and so close to exactly what went down. Mental case they found in chat room and groomed him just like those school shooters etc they have groomed. Not any part was incompetence.
looks like the Portland lgbt parade guarding Trump or the NBA full of midgets.
There are democrat cops.
Just like they have taken over the teaching profession they are taking over Law Enforcement as well.
Law Enforcement is being infected by DEI.
They did their damage several years ago by forcing the jab and diluting officer immunity.
DEI was an ongoing operation, plus throwing out physical standards.
There was a wave (probably mostly red) of competent cops retiring and quitting.
Entirely planned.
Being a democrat is like having an evil spirit. I have a friend, ex military, gun enthusiast, conservative nascar addict too, and he votes democrat. We never discuss politics because the democrat evil spirit in him is completely insane and causes him to become completely irrational.
We all have seen it. A person who seems fairly well-balanced becomes completely irrational and unhinged, foaming at the mouth angry by the simple mention of a name. They have been brainwashed and their trigger word is “Trump”.
Viva/Barnes Live last night – Barnes was on fire! He could not say it enough – False Flag – it was a set up.
A point he made – 20 year old kid was able to skirt around SS/LE, climb on a roof with a rifle and fire at DJT. (think about that).
I agree! – However, when the dust settles, we will not know anymore than w/JFK 🙁
Oh I think we’ll learn more than we did in that atrocity and already have, more quickly.
They don’t have quite the Iron Curtain around information they did in 1963.
With a rifle, not even concealed.
Were those who witnessed him searched with metal detectors? How many MAGA witnesses were carrying? If they could not? How did the shooter get through with his rifle?
Can PDJT now get his own security force? Or a supplementary force?
These are questions that spawn more questions
I avoid using “false flag” when talking with most people; they always assume it means “fake,” made up, not real. Alex Jone’s trial has made it harder for the everyday, not in-the-weeds people to understand otherwise.
We understand the term here, but most do not, and it is often used to downplay someone’s point.
And Barnes is not wrong; it’s what most critical thinking and sane people are asking today: how the heck did he get there, how did that ladder get there, and why the F did the police just derp it the whole damn time…not to mention in the sniper crosshairs for 3 minutes?
If it looks like a duck, quacks like a duck, and walks like a duck—it’s a duck, even if it identifies as a Platypus.
Allowed – or actually orchestrated? And conveniently right before the convention this week. I can image there are some frustrated, angry actors right now. One of our veteran snipers weighed in on this attempted assassination https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-13634219/Veteran-longest-confirmed-sniper-kill-Trump-assassination-attempt.html
Trump is in grave danger as long as the DEI woke head from Pepsico is running operations. Congressmen grow a set and rid the country of her or risk another attempt that may not fail.
While I have always thought DJT needed some humbleness, my concern is these people don’t give up… there is no reconciliation with deep state/IC…
“…I have always thought DJT needed some humbleness…”
Nuts. Complete.
Trump is like David going against the evil giant, Goliath.
To voluntarily face a giant in a death contest with only a slingshot and five stones takes courage, not humbleness.
To use your wisdom, wealth and experience to fight the corruption of our government takes courage not humbleness. Humbleness can be shown AFTER the fight is won.
Trump acknowledging the hand of God in keeping him safe is humble enough for now.
100%
I tend to agree with this.
While a major corner was turned this past weekend, it would be a mistake to assume that some fundamental change has occurred with those global elites and the broader spiritual struggle that remains ongoing. Lucifer never sleeps or stops looking to destroy.
These evil ones would still attempt a continued world domination even if the whole of humanity was awakened and accepted what MAGA and Nationalist Populism was really about. In that context, there is really no working with or compromising with them and their army of so-called ‘elite’ minions. Their sun is setting. And they are not leaving gracefully.
A big protracted struggle continues on for the physical and spiritual fate of humanity. And I think that perhaps this weekend sharpened that higher order focus with Donald Trump. God was very near him for an instant.
So I don’t think PDJT is going to now “go soft”at the RNC. But I think he correctly senses that he is now firmly in the driver’s seat in this election, and is attempting to be politically more magnanimous in that likely victory.
He is also still processing how close he came to instant death, and how God miraculously spared him and gave him more time for his mission.
After these past several years, he has telegraphed consistently that a major overhaul of that town is planned once he returns. Very different from Administration 1.0.
Seeking unity is not asking the death of individuality, spiritual, national or political identity, or free will. And it can co-exist with victory over those seeking only to amalgamate humanity into a mindless blob of cattle.
There is great unity in Heaven.
His VP pick in a couple days will be the huge litmus test of whether that resolve to bring a major change to the broken system has been diluted, or strengthened, by this weekend.
That’s why I think it’s going to be Mike Flynn. I believe it’s someone who is not on some “leaked” list of people. Why do that? Show your hand? You don’t. However, you do bluff your hand, or you let people know your hand is really good because they are pompous and always call (never raise but call). Leaking a list is bluffing, not showing a strong hand. It’s a misdirection.
However, SD’s prediction of Ben Carson is also very highly probable.
General Flynn has always been my first choice.
And incorruptible Dr. Carson an acceptable second one.
I agree. For me, Flynn is my top choice because the IC fears him. They already let us know that fact when they went after him for a fake FARA issue. Flynn also knows how the system works in the background- he came from there, has been into that pit of hell, and knows where hell keeps things.
Agree. When the evil doers pause and take inventory, they will realize they’ve already been getting away with a lot of blatant law breaking with no consequences. It will only embolden them to press on with audacity.
I wouldn’t even hold him to that as a litmus test. They will seek to make him look bad. We must keep the faith.
Everything is important. But everything is a belly crawl through the briars for the bugs, snakes, hyenas, wolves, lions, hippopotamuses, and rhinos.
He cannot do the loan we must all be united and armed with every spiritual Weapon and practice at using them.
It’s going to be messy. We missed drop all pretense of easy victory. Drop expectation of a smooth process or smooth transition.
The forces of darkness will not give up until they are dead.
It ain’t braggin,’ if you can do it.
You sound like you’re new here.
ROLCON much?
Sundance its a given you know the coziness of blackrock to biden …on the MOA site (we both visit) there is a comment the shooter at the rally was in an advertisement ad for blackrock….can you research ?
In the first few seconds of that ad you’ll see the shooter.
He’s sitting at a desk watching a teacher write something on a white board.
CFP posted that Blackrock ad:
Young Global Assassins Initiative?
C’mon Babylon Bee, this is fertile ground for ya! Get writing that satire!
He was, saw the video via Lara Loomer….
A “we need to unite” type speech would be fine. Encouraging average Americans to stop hating each other and try to work together to make the U.S. and the world a better place… all good. But what I hope Trump does NOT do is offer an olive branch to the media and Deep State scum who have put us through all this for years. THOSE slime need to be held to account before we can really begin to heal.
There must never be compromise with Marxists and those who sell out the country to foreign interests for money and those who seek to delute the citizen population with illegals. Those elements must be rhetorically separated and pushed outside the “unified” body politic. If Trump “compromises” with them, then he will sacrifice the country to them because they will never compromise with him. I have always feared that Trump, deep down, lacks the ruthlessness the nation’s situation requires. FDR consolidated an electorate that stuck with him thick and thin and that endured beyond his passing by stratifying the electorate and singling out what he called “the malefactors of great wealth.” In like manner, Trump must consolidate the overwhelming majority of the country in a mutual repudiation of those elements described above.
Meet the devil halfway, you’re halfway to hell.
Comity, a gentlemen s debate is well and good when both sides participate. Liberals are like 2-3 years old wanting a toy in a toy store, you’ve said no and they throw a tantrum…what do you do? A) give in and buy the toy? B) Jerk a loving knot in them and head to the car?
For far too long we’ve chosen A) …all that does is get more of the bad behavior.
No, Ladies & Gentlemen, it’s time to spank them and send them to their rooms without dinner
My sister and I just had to send one of my brothers to his room without dinner.
Like you said, StanH, indulging bad behavior because “ you know how I am..” is not cutting it any longer.
We give in to them, we lose our probity…
I think it’ll be more about national unity around our common goals as us citizens. Not unifying around the governments evil
You cannot compromise or unite with evil. They do indeed need to be held to account.
Frankly, I’m not ready to make nice.
To compromise with evil means you are willing to accept SOME evil – that makes you the loser.
right! they must admit their guilt ! Biden has not. Benny Johnson has not! Maxine Waters has not!
Follow the path suggested by the late El Rushbo: The left must not just be defeated, but utterly crushed out of existence, before western nations canrecover their way.
I pray Trump doesn’t go soft. God never meant for us to be a doormat. I believe God is in charge and he clearly proved it Saturday July 13,2024.
There must never be compromise with Marxists and those who sell out the country to foreign interests for money and those who seek to delute the citizen population with illegals.

I am hoping he draws a line in the sand. And says, if you admit your guilt and stand with me then all is forgiven and we go fwd. If you cant, Fu*& You! War!
That’s my PRESIDENT.
That’s our President.
Things have changed. God Bless him, his family, and America.
The deep state with another deep fake scenario. Yet again, a young, mentally disturbed, loner-assassin strikes.
Same script that has been followed for decades when offing/ targeting an undesirable politician. Sometimes the lone wolf is not all that young. Still, the script is the same.
I read somewhere that the gun he used cost 12K! How does a dietary aid afford a weapon like that? Plus range time, plus instruction and explosives? Another Nashville like killer, with no trail.
I heard His parents were therapists…? …perhaps He was on medications?
for sure count on it.
His dad bought him that weapon.
Maybe he picked it up “lightly used” on Craigslist in Uvalde ….
like a template or a menu ready made. I heard the gun was 12K dollar piece. Anyone know. Don’t the UN use those type rounds. The father may be in on it. The FBI will block all this so get the slueths busy out there,
The “questions” at 4:57 and 6:26 are what we should expect from the left. “The big, mean, orange haired man is still the big, mean, orange haired man.”
Of course, President Trump should reflect on the assassination attempt and the lives of the innocent attendees killed and injured. I hope he still focuses on foreign and economic policy too. I went to Publix yesterday and Land o’ Lakes butter was 7.99 a pound, and store brand was 5 something a pound! Eggs and milk are rising again too.
I think a near death experience will adjust your perspective of the world.
Jack Posobiec, and Amir Tsarfati have both posted an amazing video.
A man from a pentecostal church in Oak Creek (Discover Church) was interviewed in March of this year. He was describing a vision or dream he had.
It was about Trump and a bullet so close to his ear it broke his eardrum, as the man touched the tip of his right ear,he also said he saw Trump get down on his knees and became radically born again, not just a Christian believer.
So we may see a very different Trump…. This will be very interesting.
His Damascus road encounter with Jesus, the enemy of death.
I agree with this vision. The road to Damascus is a good metaphor. NDE changes a person. I hope the Holy Spirit will give him the words to bind hearts. Not the Marixists as they will never hear but others, “Tbose with ears, Let them hear.”
I’ve read where Donald Trump gave all credit to God for saving him from that bullet. I was pleased to read that. I do pray that he will become a Believer in Christ as a result of this.
Oh, Dear. I hope he avoids “I stand here before you as a symbol of God’s preference.” Though likely true, it would stir up all of the hornets of the left.
When an event literally brings a strong man to his knees , being so humbled he will no doubt rise up a changed man.
“We will see what happens”
As he likes to say
Congress members are silent. They appear to be taking their cues from the Main Government Media talking heads, who are blaming Trump, like usual. Many of them seem disappointed that 45 is still with us.. There’s a big loss of trust in the SS – they showed that DIE has infiltrated the organization. The public witnessed that their preparation was insufficient and seemed almost careless. The public already knows that the EffBeeLie cannot be believed. No one should have any trust in their “investigation” since they are openly hostile, and have repeatedly gone after 45. There was Divine intervention in this attempt. We must continue to thank God and pray for His continued intervention and protection.
That he wants to, or has, completely re-written his speech; that he, apparently, has a new outlook. These things concern me greatly. Above all things, the opposition has not changed. They are not seeking inclusion and/or unity. They seek only full and total domination. That fact should never be forgotten! Now is not the time to be tiptoeing through the tulips.
Trump should look to George Washington. He also was protected by God in battle. His clothing received numerous bullet holes and many horses were shot out from beneath him. George never changed his course after escaping certain death by the hand of God.
TRUMP in giving your speech
Please
Do not go
SOFT ON THE MARXIST CABAL THAT ARE DESTROYING OUR
REPUBLIC 🇺🇸
Unity with the ENEMY never ever succeeds
I very much doubt Trump will go soft! I believe his speech will show an urgency, and need to rid America of the toxic influence that put a young assassin on that roof. He will blame the media, and the left.
Abbie Phillips is seething that Salena Zito is giving a glowing interview of President Trump. As they say, you cannot despise the media enough.
Dear Mr Trump: God didn’t leave you here to Unite, he left you here to win. Dont go weak on these communists who want us all dead. A concerned citizen
I disagree.
He is here to unite AMERICANS who want to continue to live under the Constitution and the Bill of Rights. That includes all races, creeds and political parties.
Not everyone who has/is a member of the Democrat party is a Marxist. This is evidenced by the Walk Away movement we saw a few years ago.
Americans broadly united against the extreme leftists is where we need to be.
Exactly. Then, the sane from both parties can debate how the government should address issues as our founding documents intended. Unity and solidarity are what is needed; that can be achieved with a strong tone and a strong message and does not have to be weak or lacking.
This is a turning point in modern U.S. history- Trump is now solely in the driver’s seat, and so far, I like how he drives when free to do so.
President Trump told Salena Zito that it was just beginning to sink in how close he came to death. Reminds me of the day after the Tory party conference hotel was bombed by the IRA. PM Thatcher had just left the bathroom of her hotel room; had she stayed in there one second longer, she would’ve been killed as that room was demolished. She said as she sat in church and saw the sun streaming through the stained-glass windows it finally sunk in: “This was a day I wasn’t meant to see.” Thank God for His continuing protection!
Every day it will become more clear to President Trump how close he dodged that bullet.
It will change a man forever.
I love Trump, but there is no unity to be had with people who hate us and want us dead. If he gives a “can’t we all just get along” speech, it’ll be a huge disappointment.
Joe Biden has been suggesting since the debate that something like this is necessary and eagerly anticipated.
I just wish he’d get up on stage and ask the question that ought to be asked: did the regime plan and carry out an unsuccessful hit on PDJT? They’ve run hoax after hoax in an effort to impeach, and imprison, him. Having failed, what’s the logical next step and the step Democrats always take? Violence.
We have to stop pretending that these evil people can be reasoned with.
And in no way should the FBI be involved. Trump should call for an independent investigation. The FBI cannot be trusted in any way.
The global marxists and all their followers, financiers and mouthpieces are absolutely enemies to our constitution. We should be running them out until they’re gone.
I tend to agree, but as I commented above, some of this is just the magnanimity of someone who emerged from near death and is now at the very threshold of political victory. The left is in full recoil and retreat this morning. Obama’s coup against Biden just took a huge blow.
Even PDJT qualified in his NYP interview that he has no illusions how the left may respond.
Asking for unity is a classical political move. Many former democrats are now with him. His base is growing exponentially by the day now. A speech seeking unity is never a bad thing.
But his actions, starting with his VP selection, will spell out his true trajectory.
I don’t think this weekend has erased from his mind what he, and America, have been put through these last four years. He did not forget his original speech. Hundreds remain political prisoners in DC, and so does Bannon and Navarro sit in jail cells as we speak, in a country now invaded with illegals.
A “ Come to Jesus” moment tends to give people more clarity, not less. I trust that this new speech is Holy Spirit inspired and will be EXACTLY what needs to be said.

Cop sniper says he had the shooter in sight for 3 minutes and the Secret Service would NOT let him shoot the guy.If true,treason and corruption,and they will try again.
This is more proof the SS was in on it at some level. Their failure to secure rooftops in close proximity to the podium could only have been intentional. Even the Keystone Kops would do that. Yet, two days later and no official statement from head of SS and no heads have rolled. SS is being lauded by many in media for covering Trump AFTER he was shot. One inch to the right and there would have only been a Kennedy-like exploded brain to cover. They deserve ZERO accolades for their TOTAL MISSION FAILURE.
Yes. If he had been killed they would have had total control of the narrative. God kept this man safe for a reason.
source is 4chan. Why would he use anoymous 4chan to tell the world … and give his name.
Nonsense. The “counter snipers” could have ended the situation. Then they might have had their precious pensions threatened, or had to do some paperwork, or even had to face court proceedings (as PDJT, Navarro, Bannon and others have been plagued with FOR YEARS)…
…but they could have ACTED, and in so acting, they would have blocked Evil and Death.
I am sick of everyone making excuses for men who are so morally weak that in the heat of actual battle they refuse to take action because Authority Figure X didn’t give them a little dollop of authority. That kind of tribalistic follower–caring about nothing but their pensions–is a big part of why Muh Cultural Marxism gets away with what it does. (And after all it’s just a phrase made up by God alone knows what PR agents of Muh Free Market Right to make the UniParty look like it has left and right wings.)
If I had been on that roof I guarantee you I’d be in jail right now for not waiting for an order before doing what was necessary. If my job is to secure a perimeter to protect those within it, and I see that the perimeter was badly designed with obvious incipient threat to those I’m hired to protect, letting malevolence run rampant with murder and injury is NOT what I’m going to choose, and I don’t care whether I “didn’t get orders.”
This is all explained much more easily than this comic book conspiracy stuff. Muh Chain of Command–oh, but let’s let innocent people die rather than refuse to take action.
Perhaps this time they will be up against professionals – you know, like blackwater?
Jaw dropping. I hope this courageous man lives to tell this story. The report of the SS claim that it was local police responsible for securing the surrounding area starts to make sense. Blame shifting before the truth gets out.
Question: any idea where this is actually posted? I would like to see the original.
If this is for real, can the family of the man that was killed, and the two in hospital, sue the SS?
Let me ask you this.
If you were a “counter sniper” at the rally of a beloved but beleaguered major candidate for President of the United States…and you saw a sniper setting up to kill innocent people and/or the candidate…
…and you asked for the order to shoot…
…and you didn’t get it…
…and you asked multiple times and got the same reply…
What would you do? Sit there like a nice little LE stooge fearing that your pension will be threatened?
Or interrupt the day plan of Evil?
I realize that the talking points memo is to blame Pepsi Lady, and make points about DEI, and all that Memetic rot.
But to say
>Secret Service would NOT let me shoot
is garbage. What is worse? Women hired who can’t do the job? Or men who will let evil unfold because they will not take the initiative to end it when they have the power?
They have hurled every possible negative name at him, indicted him dozens of times for non-crimes, tried to bankrupt him and his family, thrown his supporters in the gulag for being escorted into the Capitol by police, jailed his advisors, threatened those who contribute to his campaigns, and now tried to assassinate him. But Trump is going to give a “can’t we all just get along” speech at this convention. Sorry…not buying it.
Lightheartedly, PDJT embarks a new venture, Bulletproof Hairspray.
Please DJT. Do not try to unify or compromise in any way shape or form with the left.
That’s why we are where we are today.
These people hate you and us. The time for turning the other cheek, reaching across the aisle etc etc are long long gone .
Retribution Revenge Retaliation and Mass Deportation is what we want to hear
Fight Fight Fight
Massive total failures of this magnitude requires immediate firing of many involved with total loss of all benefits. Turn in your badge and gun and don’t let the door hit you in the ass on the way out
As for local law enforcement so much for protect and serve , oh that’s right law enforcement have no responsibility to protect you even the former president
There is no way this many holes in the security by Secret Service and local law enforcement is an accident or acceptable oversight.
Considering the DEI woke Agendas of all alphabet agencies local state and federal and the obvious hate of Donald Trump by leftist lunatics in government positions of authority this was deliberate in some form or fashion .
Like many disastrous happenings they are set up to happen on schedule
The weak link was the shooter using a rifle sighted in for someone else and lack of experience with crosswinds
There was certainly no real stellar effort to prevent it by what amounts to an episode of keystone cops or dumb & dumber by secret service
It brings bile to my throat to keep hearing people repeating that the “counter snipers” were waiting for orders when they well knew something bad was unfolding. What bald cowardice–putting self preservation (pension etc.) ahead of doing what they had to know was right.
The bankers and globalist must have war. Alex Jones says poisoning will be attempted next or drone or truck with explosives.
I think whatever happens God has already written the history and we bear witness. I don’t know if Trump will go “soft” as some fear. However I do know that he was spared for a reason and if part of that reason is an expanded awareness from DJT then I accept it as part of God’s plan.
I will never unify with the democrat communists. Ain’t happenin
The CNN reporter, Abby something or other, is so annoying with her “hmm” when Salina Zito completes a train of thought. Then trying to get a discussion going about Pres Trump’s “rhetoric”. Funny but I don’t recall Pres Trump saying FJB should “be in the bullseye”.
At a week ago flag waving on Rte 1 Wiscassset Bridge a disgruntled person called local law enforcement that flag wavers were disturbing the peace – I assume that all the positive honks from the cars and trucks for the Trump 2024 banners were annoying said caller. Well wait until next time with an even larger turnout and more Trump flags ! This horrific assassination attempt has awoken a new wave of Trump supporters. who will be heard.
Susan Crabtree of Real Clear Politics saiys Secret Service Resources Diverted From PA Trump Rally to Jill Biden

Shocking Report: Secret Service Resources Diverted From PA Trump Rally to Jill Biden, More Troubling Info

Was the Jill Biden event in Pittsburgh intended to dilute available resources?
Was Kamala in Penn also?
Yes. She was in Philadelphia.
A thought… was this assassination attempt part of a bigger plan? They can remove old Joe this same way, and easily, easily blame it on the vengeance of MAGA republicans. Their Biden problem would be solved, all sympathy for Trump would evaporate, and we would all be accused of being revolutionary insurrectionists again.
The press will ignore any comments from Biden, like “put Trump in the crosshairs”, “he’s got a target on his back”, “we need to take him out”, or even “someone needs to shoot him in the head”. But if Trump says, “We need to fight for our rights”, he’ll be attacked for using “violent rhetoric” that led to actual violence.
There’s no denying it now, we have become the Soviet Union 2.0.
Veteran who holds world record for longest confirmed sniper kill weighs in on Trump assassination attempt
https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-13634219/Veteran-longest-confirmed-sniper-kill-Trump-assassination-attempt.html
Secret Service used to be taught, if there’s an unexpected potential threat you neutralize it (does not mean “kill” the threat but if necessary slam him down and ‘cuff him).
A friend of mine in the Army failed to get into the Secret Service because his immediate reaction in his first test was to have a Q&A with the potential threat (“Come on man, whattaya doin’ here? You know this area was locked off…”)
Secret Service didn’t tell him what to do in the exercise or what the training protocol was… they wanted to see how candidates were wired.
My buddy never got a second chance to make a first impression. That was the late ’80’s.
If your buddy had been a pudgy female, or trans, of colour, he might be wearin’ the SS badge today.
The problem is that the supposed righteous males on the “counter sniper” position were cucks. They knew what was unfolding, they saw it, they recognized it sufficiently–we’re told–to have asked for permission (ASKED FOR PERMISSION) to neutralize a major, obvious, unfolding threat.
No, I’m not buying it. “I was just waiting for orders” is morally no different than “I was just following orders.” This republic was founded on men and women who could discern, and act on, Righteousness–on the fly, without someone telling them what they can and cannot do.
Yep. The first thing he does is ask if Salena and her daughter are okay. Real men. I love him.
Here’s my thoughts on the matter from Substack Blog:
https://open.substack.com/pub/alfrancis/p/the-right-thing?r=1nbcvc&utm_campaign=post&utm_medium=web
the enemy here is still the uniparty as a whole. ALL the rinos will be pleading with DJT to give a unity speech for their future good but could give a damn about him or us. I hope he sticks to point by point expose of Biden and the uniparty corruption.
@sundance Why is Nimrata Haley being invited to Trump’s convention and also allowed to speak when she wasn’t on the list in the first place?
Wondering same. She has zero credibility and absolutely nothing of substance to contribute. Plus, she’s ugly. In the truest sense of the word.
Too many pony tails around our REAL PRESIDENT TRUMP that aren’t tall enough to look him in the eyes. Nothing is about merit in the government anymore.
You’re just repeating what you think Chad wants to hear.
The “counter snipers” on the roof–who refused to take initiative to neutralize a clear, evolving, escalating threat against innocent civilians AND our President–were tall, strong men.
THAT is the problem. And the fact that you jump to blaming women means you are co-opted by memetic garbage designed to divide the sexes and set them at war.
DJT was brought down and shielded by all the nearby bodies asap. They were authorized to let him stand back up when it was clear the extent of his injuries, clear he could stand, and clear the sniper had been terminated and no other threat was spotted (not that I’d personally trust that, coming from guys on a roof who let the sniper act).
I’ve seen all sorts of photos designed to bring up woman hate and nastiness, and I would rather await the downloading of perspectives on what was happening in each of them. Only one of the photos appeared to show a woman hiding behind her colleagues, but I have no idea who she is, what her job was, and what she was doing in that moment.
If we want to break free of the UniParty’s globo handlers, then probity and independent thinking is called for. Not this lockstep parroting of amygdala hijacks.
This is a great video that shows just how much time transpired as people on the ground warned local police of the shooter.
From this video I sure hope the Comer committee subpoenas the PA Governor, his lieutenants, all the officers stationed near the shooter rooftop and also hope they subpoena all communications from at least a week prior of this event along with all communications the day of.
To fully understand what truly occurred, it’s the COMMS that are needed to be heard by the committee to understand what was being said and told to the foot soldiers their lieutenants leading up to the rally and especially during the rally.
Get the COMMS Comer!
Top notch perspective. The zones of action in a situation like this–we don’t at the moment know what they were, how they interacted, etc. But we do know the “counter snipers” “were waiting for orders” to terminate a clear threat to life.
It is precisely this kind of confusion, atop all sorts of other human failings, that makes me feel certainty that the hand of Providence was protecting DJT. Almost like He wants to say to us, “Get your ducks in a row, you addlepates, you’re threatening what’s precious with what’s base and weak!”
The CNN government censorship agent conveyed her firm belief that Trump is characterized by divisiveness and is intent on retribution. This is projection to the point of delusion. But while she is not psychotic, her belief and the belief of other progressives is impermeable to facts and to discovering the the truth.
People use projection because it meets an emotional need. Progressives use projection, projecting their own unwanted impulses onto Donald Trump and his supporters, because it allows them to feel no guilt, and it allows them to feel virtuous by contrast with Trump and his supporters. The problem is, they cannot feel virtuous without projecting their aggression onto others. Thus they must continuously come up with new grievances that identify themselves as victims of aggression that is all on the someone else’s side of the line.
When people have an emotional need to use projection, because it relieves them of guilt about their own impulses (such as to be divisive and to seek retribution), it is embedded in their character as firmly as any other belief system that offers succor.
These are people who cannot emotionally afford to see Donald Trump realistically as a human being, with strengths and weaknesses. The more they can dehumanize and demonize Trump the easier it is for them to justify all manner of overt hostility towards him.
It is not possible to reason with people who have a need to condemn someone or a whole group of people as undeserving of life.
Calls for unity falls on deaf ears when the people listening are convinced that Trump is mentally ill, criminal, and like Hitler.
It would be like trying to discuss the idea that there are good Jewish people with Hitler.
The the people who hold progressive political views are very much like Hitler in that what unites them is hatred of Trump and his supporters just as what united Nazis was their hatred of Jews, Slavs, and disabled people who they felt should be exterminated for the good of Germany.
In Arab and Muslim countries this same use of projection occurs: while the leaders do nothing for their people, when the people complain they are told their problems are all caused by Jews and Israel. Thus the people of these countries hope their freedom and survival will come once the Jews and Israel are destroyed.
What is to be done about this situation in our country?
The current situation of divisiveness was created by an oligarchy that decided that the US middle class and the US Constitution needed to be destroyed in order for them to have full control of the country. People who are poor and desperate are in no condition to fight for their rights. Thus these oligarchs have been working since the 1970’s to turn our country into a third world nation.
They have achieved a lot of what they wanted: they achieved the destruction of our manufacturing base, the destruction of our steel industry, the destruction of our ship building industry, and have achieved a peoplehood that is starkly divided between those who go along with these oligarchical goals of destroying America and those who are determined to prevent that destruction.
They have achieved a Congress that works for them, not for the people of the USA. Remember all those Ukrainian flag wavers in Congress jubilant because more billions of taxpayer dollars were agreed to be sent down the toilet bowl in Ukraine? They are doing the oligarchs bidding.
These oligarchs do not want Donald Trump elected. And they will do everything in their power to prevent it. They are planning on food shortages and possibly even water shortages, although I am not sure how they could achieve the latter. But they are achieving the food shortage by culling millions of chickens for a virus that doesn’t even exist and by setting fire to food processing plants all over the USA.
Prepare for a difficult period of time. When the central bankers get desperate they can cause economic collapse. They have done it before. They are working on doing it again through monetary policy that is creating a mountain of debt that can cripple the US through interest payments alone.
Those who have political power and have chosen to support the oligarchs over the people of the US should ultimately be charged with treason, investigated, and stand trial. It is only by breaking the power of the oligarchs and the progressives in power that we have a chance of resuscitating our republic.
The people of America who prefer Communism over a Constitutional Republic should be given a one way ticket to China. This is not meant to destroy the political process with differences of opinion and honest debate. It is a sign that we have been taken far from a system of politics in which both parties worked to the betterment of our country and to help the citizens. We have to start over, and we have to start with Americans who love America. If political progressives want to start a progressive party of people who love America, by all means do so! But the history of the progressive movement is the history of socialism and communism, and these systems have one purpose, and that is the destruction of our Constitutional republic.
If the Swamp is not drained and Trump does not select all of his Cabinet and Agency/Department heads from outside the DC and K Street swamp, the country will continue its slow death!
Report: Secret Service Snipers Instructed NOT to Fire Until AFTER Assassin Takes the First Shot
https://thelibertydaily.com/7-things-we-know-about-would-be-assassin/
Gee, why don’t the SS Rules of Engagement call for the protection or removal of the President while they ‘investigate’ wether the guy has a rifle or a telescope.
And at 160 meters the sniper scope could see it is a rifle. And his spotter would have much greater magnification.
N’est Pas?
They weren’t Real SS, but ‘rent-a-cops’ hired by ?
Then to literal HELL with them for following that order.
TO HELL WITH THEM.
Your delusional if you believe you can come together with this party of marxists socialists and communists. It’s in their veins to commit political violence. Their armys of youth and blacks all embrace violent civil strife and very violent. They just tried to pull off the ultimate after failing to break this man imprison him and do illegal unconstitutional operations to stop hi. They just failed the ultimate. Whats next. Kumbiyah…No way…. they gonna try again. Joe Bidend personal detail chief is now head of the SS and a woke sick person. Did she stand down some men and allow that perfect shot place to remain open …maybe….The news media is the pimple spewing the poison yet GOP guys continue interviews with those demons. I’m nonviolent but not a chump to marxists.
All victorious leaders ask for unity.
I don’t think PDJT has lost sight of the fundamental differences and how he now stands at the threshold of that victory.
He hasn’t forgotten the last four years of hell, for America, for his supporters, and for himself. He knows about the Deep State, globalists, communists and RINOs as well as ever.
He has always honored his core promises.
Forget about the RNC speech so much. That’s for the historians and commentators to swoon over. Let him ask for unity. And let the adversaries slap it away if they choose.
His VP pick, that’s where it will matter more, and signal where things are really heading.
The Secret Service needs more Bonginos, and less Angelinas.
Retired military, many are saying psyop. I get very confused with all these opinions and I truly do not understand psyop either.
