Donald Trump lays blame for assassination attempt on Biden and Harris

Donald Trump has blamed Joe Biden and Kamala Harris for last month’s failed assassination attempt against him by accusing them of making it difficult for the Secret Service to protect him.

The Republican presidential nominee’s claim – for which he offered no evidence – was made on the television talkshow Dr Phil, hosted by Phil McGraw, on Tuesday. The remarks follow disclosures that several Secret Service agents from the Pittsburgh field office had been placed on administrative leave after the 13 July shooting.

At a campaign rally in Butler, Pennsylvania, last month, Trump was grazed on the ear by a bullet after a 20-year-old gunman opened fire from the roof of a nearby building. One rallygoer, Corey Comperatore, was killed and two others were seriously wounded. The gunman was shot dead by a Secret Service officer at the scene.

“When this happened, people would ask, whose fault is it?” Trump told McGraw. “I think to a certain extent it’s Biden’s fault and Harris’s fault. And I’m the opponent. They were weaponising government against me, they brought in the whole DoJ to try and get me, they weren’t too interested in my health and safety.

As long as he’s stating his theories, someone should bring up Melania and her supposed relationship with the Secret Service. I think unsubstantiated theories are valid in a world where “people are saying” is treated like fact.

The ear healed miraculously. I doubt he even cut it. Most likely a blood packet in his hand. When he put his hand up to his ear, he popped it.

Tbh I’m not sure he has the dexterity to do even that.

Ear wounds bleed spectacularly. They are also quite easy to fix cleanly, with appropriate care. A small wound would create plenty of blood, but be effectively invisible after a bit of work from a plastic surgeon.

Let’s face it, which is more likely? A shooter just missed, or Trump had the coordination to play act, without it looking like a 5 year old’s “my first magic act”, and then not brag about it?

He did brag about it. He literally put himself in harms way again within seconds with absurd fist pumping and yelling “Fight! Fight! Fight!” He wore a giant fucking diaper on his ear throughout the whole RNC.

Sorry this bitch is close friends with Vince McMahon and the farther we get away from the event the more weird shit that comes out about it, the more reason I have to be fucking skeptical of a guy whose entire fucking life is kayfabe.

I had a tiny fucking zit on my ear and it took a fucking month to heal properly.

Dr Phil is still on tv? I’m genuinely surprised

Marthirial ,

Look at his guests. Daytime TV is abysmal.

Because it has nothing to do with your lying, traitorous, racist, rapey authoritarian ass.

Too bad the President is immune to prosecution, so there can’t be any legal repercussions even if it was true.

if Biden/Harris were behind this 100% lawful act, i think it would have been Seal Team 6 on the roof.
