He then said that the episode underscored why the White House needed beefed up security, and its own ballroom.

And there it is

100% staged.

There's probably no conspiracy theory in play, but I do think it's funny that the first WHCD he attends as president because he hates the event and doesn't understand it ends as soon as it starts because of a gunman. Creating a gunman distraction to avoid getting roasted by the press is not beyond Trump but also who out there doesn't want to see him dead at this point? It's just that I'm not sure which answer Occam's Razor falls at this point because false flag and honest attempt seem about equal likelihood!

Wake me up when they don't miss.

If the attacks are all fake, its incredibly poor false flag, because nobody feels bad for the prick except his absolutely ardent fans.

If they're real, it should prove to everyone how absolutely hated he is, because no other US president in recent memory has had two assassination attempts that were publicly reported.

So for those of you like me who hadn't heard the news before seeing this, apparently some guy rushed through the metal detector area at the White House correspondents dinner, but was stopped by security staff.

A bit like rushing Area 51 but if someone tried to solo the mission.

If you go to Reddit r/conservative it’s selling. It’s always the same the attacker donated like 20 dollars os something to Democrats one time.

My fear they could use this to take out freedoms, spy on peoples social media, or even worse say it’s a mental health problem be critical of them and start to get so called “dangerous” people by their speech.

Guess I get breaking news from lemmy now.

I'm starting to think he's not as committed to the roll as Charlei Kirk was

This second assassination theatre production is why we need to release the trump/epstein Files! He was reading a prepared statement very soon thereafter. It had to have been pre-written.

"Americans why are you not trying to shoot this guy" someone tries to shoot this guy "FAKE!"

(/s -- I do understand where this sentiment is coming from, but it's just a bit too early to tell what it really was)

I’m not a person who believes in many conspiracies but, the first WHCD he attended since 2016 and there was virtually no security at the hotel?

If you ever been in a city with a military base when the president or VP land, you know that doesn’t make sense. You don’t even need to be that close and they are on you.

Seriously there are multiple headline updates conflicting with each other. At this point I need a interview with the Secret Service agent who was shot to believe anything.

I’d like to believe it is a false flag, but I’m cursed with not being a moron, so I don’t automatically think everything is a conspiracy. I associate that kind of thinking with the MAGA crowd, honestly, but of course it’s not exclusive to them.

I am not sure if was staged or not. But after his post as Christ and attacking the pope, his numbers with Christians were really low.

It’s a coincidence this person made a big post attacking Christians just before. For sure will help his numbers with this group

Can anyone tell me what is going on? I'm getting a bunch of assassination attempts on POTUS memes and haven't read the news as it tends to be BS mostly.

He shat his pants and they needed an excuse to get him out of there.

It's more likely the gunman was there to shoot at the press that TFG has vilified for the last ten years than an AA on his corpulent personage and his minions.

Dunno, the media is loudly spinning him into a hero. And average low-info Americans tend to believe what they're told.

Let’s say they’re all fake, and they ramp up the frequency.

Now it’s so so common place the security guys already expect some guy with a riffle to walk in the back door.

“Ah mr assassin today? Alright pass on through.”

Except that, one day that’ll be the real one 🥳
