New justification for the ~~west~~ east wing bunk... err, ballroom incoming.
East wing
Why not both while taxpayer is funding it?
This guy just keeps getting shot at! I wonder if it’s a result of his constantly terrible governing, his incredible narcissism, the fact that the only thing he can output is suffering, or even that his feelings of joy themselves are fraudulent.
Maybe all four?
He hates these cans! Stay away from these cans!
alt: two panel vertical image, top image is a man dressed in hunters gear holding a rifle in a firing position squinting through the scope. The bottom panel is a gas station attendant standing near a display or motor oil cans and pointing at them in an excited manner, some of which have bullet holes. This is a scene from the Steve Marton movie The Jerk when a crazed gunman is trying to kill the main character for no reason.
St. Louis?
yeah, he's gonna stay that color.
Don't forget he hires people solely based on whether they will swear personal allegiance to him, but he's never loyal to them. So no competent person would ever want to work for him.
All I know is it's definitely NOT the child raping. Nope.
He’s just so amazing, that everyone happens to want to kill him! That’s what happens when everyone loves you, right?

Here's hoping.
Is the White House now considered a bad neighborhood?
"Can't have shit on the North Lawn."
We got the worst assassins known to man
That's because it's theater.
Is it too much to ask for some competence?
If we were a competent nation we wouldn't be in the mess to begin with.

As the old saying goes, if you want something done right...
Is Trump in the running for most attempts on a president’s life yet? I feel like the number is getting up there.
I guess there have been 8 trump assassination attempts total.
So far, there have been 7 school shootings in 2026 alone.
There have been over 130 mass shootings in the US so far this year.
The fascist child rapist is just experiencing what America has become. I'd rather a cheeseburger take him out instead of violence, but he's gonna be a martyr either way. Maga chuds are gonna get really fucking weird about his death. Just you wait. He'll be their patron saint.
I want him to live long enough to completely fuck Republicans in the midterms.

Obama had 11 attempts.
This one would make for 4 supposed attempts on the pedophile felon traitor's worthless life.
Although, quite curiously this regime has already stopped manufacturing their brainless hysteria about the previous ones.
Other than of course their expected droolingly stupid lies designed to further the ever ballooning illegal construction theft of the bunker to hide mr. cadet bone spurs mcdraft-dodging little coward bitch.
I have no trust in the Regime. It is a coinflip whether it is a false flag or real, and honestly, I wouldn't mind it if Agent Blood Orange becomes a reality.
Really, he did say he couldn't go to his kid's wedding because he's gonna get killed, like this was a scheduled shooting.

Another staged event for the sick lazy pedo using the pathetic gun laws and the piss poor healthcare system in the USA. Best should be in a hospital and not roaming the streets with a firearm.
Just a thought, and no less nefarious for it, but I wonder if some of these are less full staging and known potential threats they purposely ignore and allow to happen but are ready to make sure it doesn’t go to far. The press conference one was way too comfortable.

These events have become rather common, I can think of at least five since Trump's term began.
They get less press than Trump posting a pooping meme... so, what's the motivation for the staging? A paragraph at HuffPo?
An attempt to win sympathy and enforce more draconian laws. Altona Bloody Sunday was conducted by the Nazis in 1932.
I really gotta stock a bottle of champagne, or one of these days I'll be caught unprepared
I've had a bottle of 2006 Piper Heidseck vintner's reserve champagne on standby since his first term
Gotta run to the store before they sell out
It's the US, what did they expect?
Who would be surprized if the shooter was a MAGA hat?
Probably just acorns falling
What's this supposed to distract us from? I've lost track.
This wasn't an assassination attempt. No political targets were anywhere near by, let alone Trump. This was a mentally ill man who committed suicide-by-cop.
This one is probably intended to secure the ballroom/bunker funding that is stalled in Congress.
That ballroom needs to remain a hole, as long as he's president, like the slumlord he has always been. He turned the White House into the ugliest ghetto in DC, that's where he can spend his presidency, looking at a muddy hole.
And Trump immediately renews calls for his ballroom.
I hope that monstrosity never gets built, and he has to spend his entire presidency staring at a big muddy hole, like the slumlord he is.
Aw hell no. There is no way that Pumpkinhead should be martyred.
Assuming this was a real threat, they are definitely not helping in any way. Ideally, he's removed from office and the Democrats win the midterms. Second best is having him serve out his term as a cucked lame duck after the midterms. If he is incapacitated due to his dementia or gets a hamburger from heaven that's a far distant third best outcome. Still not great on that last one, since you just know the right will try to rehab the image of the Pumpkinhead.
Fascists should be shot.
Your mistake is thinking the shooting needs to stop at him.
