    from what i have read he has been charged with 2 crimes.

    1. being a felon in possession of a firearm
    2. possessing a firearm with a destroyed serial number

    nothing related to any kind of assassination attempt at this time.

    also reading that he has no money in his savings. was appointed a public defender.

    how can one travel to poland to attempt to join the ukranian military, fly to hawaii, fly from hawaii to florida with no money?
    Go. Fund. Me.
    i don't want to speculate but it seems odd that he knew trump would be there golfing that day. i would have assumed he would be out campaigning or holding a rally somewhere since it is 50 days until the election.
    His campaign schedule is pretty light, I’ve heard. And his pastimes are watching TV, rage-tweeting, and golf. So I’m not too surprised by that. 😁
    All those who seek to destroy the liberties of a democratic nation ought to know that war is the surest and shortest means to accomplish it.

    if this keeps happening to trump we will get desensitized to it and consider it normal. like we do with school shootings.
    I said the very same thing yesterday that these attempts on his life will become the norm. I don't want to see harm come to him, I'd rather see him being hauled off to jail on the verge of tears.

    I didn’t see that, but it doesn’t surprise me. Those first charges are easy slam dunks to be able to hold him while they investigate further.

    Being on golf courses every day is just asking for it. Next to impossible to guard without massive security forces. trump needs to foot that bill himself. If he has to be out there riding his little cart every day he can pay for it.

    Trump’s golf outings have long concerned Secret Service
    By Carol D. Leonnig, Josh Dawsey and Isaac Stanley-Becker
    September 16, 2024 at 16:31 ET
    Soon after Donald Trump became president, authorities tried to warn him about the risks posed by golfing at his own courses because of their proximity to public roads. Secret Service agents came armed with unusual evidence: not suspect profiles or spent bullet casings, but simple photographs taken by news crews of him golfing at his private club in Sterling, Va.
    They reasoned that if photographers with long-range lenses could get the president in their sights while he golfed, so too could potential gunmen, according to former U.S. officials involved in the discussions who, like most others interviewed for this story, spoke on the condition of anonymity because of the matter’s sensitivity.
    But Trump insisted that his clubs were safe and that he wanted to keep golfing, the former officials said. These preferences posed problems for his protection that former Trump aides, Secret Service officials and security experts said have only intensified in the years since he left the White House, as his security detail shrank and agents no longer maintained as extensive a perimeter guarding his movements. A Trump spokesman did not respond to a request for comment.
    The problems became gravely apparent on Sunday when a man pushed a semiautomatic rifle through the bushes at the Trump International Golf Club in West Palm Beach, Fla., in what authorities are investigating as a possible effort to assassinate the former president — the second attempt on his life in as many months.

    Reaping what you sowing, yea? From letter from an American:

    Democratic leaders again denounced violence and said it has no place in our country. Observers noted that it was Trump who signed a bill revoking gun-checks for people with mental illnesses put in place by President Barack Obama and that he promised the National Rifle Association (NRA) that he would roll back all the gun safety provisions President Joe Biden has put in place if he wins in 2024. But the Trump campaign called for donations on a website suggesting, as MAGA Republicans did after the shooting in Butler, Pennsylvania, that Democrats were complicit in the threat to Trump. “There are people in this world who will do whatever it takes to stop us,” Trump’s campaign said.

    I look forward to the fauxrage spin about how dangerous this is and how it just goes to show you who the “real” POTUS is. Should have pulled them all because dipshit can’t follow expert advice. If you were on that detail, why would you risk your life for someone who doesn’t take your advice?

    Trump will be holding a rally here on the island at Nassau Coliseum. The cops are going all out to make sure it is "the safest place for eveyone".

    Locals are now asking how much THIS is costing the taxpayers.

    This man costs everyone money it seems.
