Great, this will probably dominate the news for a while give Trump a breather after he spent the last week alienating voters. That said, while he might be able to milk this for a brief bump in the polls, I doubt it would last. He doesn’t have the ability to not loudly proclaim insane bigoted nonsense.

Hopefully this will cause him to either get overly cautious (unlikely) or become even more nuts and repulsive to anyone that isn’t a die hard loyalist already.

The guy seems to be a whacko. He was arrested for illegally having a machine gun 20 years ago. He has donated to both political parties. He also donated to Tulsi Gabbard.

I somehow got on the Trump campaign’s email list and periodically get garbage from them. I received the following email less than 4 hours after it happened.

ALERT FROM TRUMP My resolve is only stronger after another attempt on my life! I will never slow down. I will never give up. I WILL NEVER SURRENDER! I thank God every day for having supporters like you on my side. On November 5th, WE WILL MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN! MAGA

– followed by suggested donation amounts ranging from $24 to $3300. The grift never ends.

I don’t think that that’s grifting.

Like, there’s no fraud or misleading material here. Trump’s campaign is (presumably) providing exactly what one would expect for the donation: trying to improve Trump’s chances at the White House. They’re maybe taking every chance to push for money, but constantly trying to sell stuff alone isn’t grifting.

If it were trying to get people to invest in Trump Media & Technology Group or something, where I think that a lot of small investors have a rather-confused take on the company’s prospects, then I’d be more-inclined to agree.

Only eight weeks since the last sniper tried taking Trump’s head off.

friendly reminder… for those who don’t mind a little tin foil.

We’re not talking about the SCOTUS leak that happened earlier today.
