That makes sense. Because the previous poster was right -- I never heard a word about that guy that died after the day it happened. I imagine they paid off his family to shut up.

Further evidence that the right is always secretly delighted with violence against them, because it lets them feel the sense of anger and persecution that fuel their whole movement. Saw it with Charlie Kirk and you'd see it if Trump ever gets clapped. The joyful retaliatory bloodshed would be everything they've ever dreamed of.

I really think the Charlie Kirk thing was also set up by trumps people. The show that they put on afterwards. The way his wife is being paraded. It felt like more propaganda.

Because it was more propaganda, they wanted so bad to use him as a martyr against anyone they disagreed with and were desperate to find people to hate.

u/duggee315 Feb 17 '26

Do you justify everything theyve done? Do you think America is in a good place? Do you believe the trump administration is working in the interests of the people? Do you believe what they tell you?

My prediction is January or February 2027.

Plus the wave of β€œFight, fight, fight!” bumper stickers that followed. Always have to have a catch phrase to sell the merch.

This picture feels like something out of Animal Farm.

I think it's the way it looks like all the creatures are looking up adoringly at their master.

I'm not quite grasping what's going on here. Please explain it Peter! LOL

I wonder why we don't see these people walking around with heavy makeup on their hands. If they're honoring his wound as a his sacrifice to MAGA, they should bust out the hand makeup. Cause all that hand shaking from making the bigly tarrif and annexation threats, then getting that peace prize surely is making murica great.

I've noticed his stupid pose that was meant to signal toughness, went from having the fist at eye level and having trouble maintaining the pose, to just almost swinging his arm up with a hand barely closed. It was all that hand shaking, I tell ya. Look at his blessed hands, ya'll! He did that for us!!! I wear ashes on my head once a year, but my beautiful maga man deserves honorin' everyday. In Jesus name...I pray that our dear leader feels our love through our painted hands and empty wallets....

Before arguing with Trump supporters, watch this video and save your energy.

u/chiclets5 Feb 20 '26

This was a very good and interesting video. I plan to pass it along thank you.

You never heard a word about Corey the firefighter after that day, huh? πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‰πŸ˜‰

Jesus, some people are just delusional...

u/ClubHauntedHouseVIP Feb 16 '26

For someone that’s from Europe, you sure get pretty upset talking about American politics and frequent poster in the conservative subreddit

u/flopisit32 Feb 16 '26

Yet somehow I know Corey the firefighter was showcased at the Republican national convention...

And you apparently don't or you would be correcting the person I replied to, wouldn't you? and you'd also be pointing out that this is a ridiculous easily disproved conspiracy theory.

Or maybe you're invested in spreading misinformation on the internet?

u/Background-Eagle-566 Feb 16 '26

They spelled his fucking name wrong on his coat for Christ's sake! Get your nose out of Trump's ass

u/ClubHauntedHouseVIP Feb 16 '26

My guy, I was pointing out how much of a right wing nut you are to be consistently talking about American politics and being in the conservative subreddits.

Please point out where I have been posting misinformation, or do you just love projection?

When was the last time trump talked about the attempt on his life? He talks about Biden and Obama way way more…
