They are reporting he was at his golf club in PB and shots were fired. He is reportedly safe. I know you were anxious to break out the champagne.

BREAKING: Shots Fired Near Trump Golf Club, President Present But ‘Safe.’

Shots were fired in the vicinity of the Trump International Golf Club in West Palm Beach on Sunday afternoon as President Trump was golfing. The Trump campaign confirmed the incident, reporting only that “President Trump is safe following gunshots in his vicinity.”

UPDATE: 3:25PM EST – Secret Service agents are believed to have spotted a shooter in a tree line, returning fire, before the suspect fled. President Trump is believed to have been the target, with media sources also suggesting the gunman had a backpack, a rifle, and a GoPro video camera.

Campaign spokesman Steven Cheung added: “No further details at this time,” while the U.S. Secret Service confirmed the incident, stating: “The Secret Service, in conjunction with the Palm Beach County Sheriff’s Office, is investigating a protective incident involving former President Donald Trump that occurred shortly before 2 p.m. The former president is safe. @pbso will have more details soon.”

Preliminary info reads:

So would be assassin was in a tree, fired shots at Trump and the "secret service" returned fire...allowing the perp to climb down and casually stroll away from the scene...never to be heard from again...Hmmm...another B team secret service appointed by the admin?

swell.

Stop being such a lying, narcissistic, ass hole, and people won't try so hard to kill your ignorant orange ass.
That said, people really need to stop. As much as I hate the cock sucker, I can see a civil war breaking out if he was shot down dead.

A civil war will happen, and rightfully so.

Americans have had enough of the bulllshit- a
government and media they no longer trust.

Americans have felt powerless for so long, and when a guy like Trump comes along that wants to flip over tables and totally reorganize the way government is run, they feel like they finally have someone on their side.

The elections are a great example. We need to go back to only voting on Election Day, and if you vote absentee it will be provisional until the ballot can be vetted thoroughly.

And a photo ID is needed for both circumstances. No excuses. Proof of citizenship required.

I’ve yet to hear a good reason not to have ID to vote.

We used to know late in election night who won by exit polling. Now it drags on for days because of the lax voting methods.

What happened to Roux’s last post in this thread? Seems to have disappeared. Hmmmm..

I deleted it. Didn't realize the topic of the thread, didn't want to get off on a tangent, it wasn't relevant.



It was horrific that this has happened even once. Now a second time. Such violence has no place in society, I'm glad that the shooter was caught and hopefully he will be put away for a long, long time.

When you try really hard to organize violence against other people but it keeps being used against you...

trump is awful and pathetic and other such words, in a historical way.

But that is no excuse for violence. Period, full stop. He has been convicted, and he will be convicted further. He will lose the election. Wouldn't surprise me if more charges are brought.

We must do things in a lawful way, there is never an excuse for a political assassination. That can never become our norm.

Actually, that's what the lawfare is...political assassination. Bullets are a violent physical assassination.

noun:

The act of assassinating; a killing by treacherous violence.
Killing or murder for political reasons.
An attack intended to ruin someone's reputation.

Democrats own this one, full stop.

All this “ threat to democracy” bullshit rhetoric,

Routh should be in jail.

If he can stay alive, Trump will be our next POTUS.

This is your party’s norm . Own this shit. Complete lawfare.

Also, Mayorkas needs to be summarily fired.

Technically, he wasn’t a shooter.

I wonder if, when the Secret Service agent saw the gun, did he shout “Donald…Duck!!”

Routh voted for Dump in 2016....hmmmm.

Dump wasn't scheduled to play golf yesterday, so he couldn't have known where Dump was going to be....hmmmm.

Should he have been able to purchase an AK-47?

I keep seeing it reported that Routh was ~300-500 yards from Trump when the SS agent engaged Routh with his firearm. Secret Service to the rescue! This fallacy is presented as if that's the distance from which he would attempt to shoot Trump. Truth is, there's NO WAY Routh could have shot at Trump with that rifle from ~300-500 yards with any accuracy. Over the counter AK-47s are notorious for their lack of range and accuracy. Especially with over the counter 7.62x39 ammunition. That shot would require a custom built AK with a milled receiver, a bougie trigger & barrel, and precisely hand-loaded ammo.

Apparently the SS agent was scouting ahead one hole in front of Trump's group. That's when he detected Routh and shot 4-6 rounds at him [btw, WHY didn't the SS agent score at least one hit? Shameful]. To hit/kill Trump, the would-be assassin would have had to wait, undetected, until Trump was playing the hole in from of him, or at least be inside 200 yards. Then he'd be in range for a center mass hit from a shooter who practices regularly. Routh failed due to lack of prep, a shitty plan of action, and a shitty choice of rifle. SCIII's own Proper Tool would clown Routh: "ALWAYS use the proper tool for the job."

Once again, the Secret Service scores an epic fail. A properly trained and equipped shooter would have succeeded, just like in Butler, PA.

StrawMan-

I agree with many of your comments. But an AK-47 (which I have fired many times) can put a lot of those 7.62x39 rounds 300-500 yards down range, no problem. Most of the time people with AK's spray and pray (i.e., as you point out they are not great sniper weapons). But I wouldn't want to be on the receiving end of a volley fired from anyone with an AK 300-500 yards away, even that kook.

If what you describe is accurate (I haven't seen the news), then it sounds like the Secret Service did its job. The potential perp never got a shot off. I think it would be very hard to completely neutralize the possibility of a crack pot taking a pot shot at someone playing a round of golf at a course in an urban area.

We don't really know this; a lot of assumptions being made to reach that conclusion. Granted, plans & procedures can certainly be implemented and executed to defeat the SS's defense. But it's hard to characterize the SS's actions in this case as an epic fail - they did what they were supposed to do under the circumstances. They were fortunate that the perp wasn't as prepared or skilled as he could've been, but we don't know what would've happened if that weren't the case. You're speculating based on a sample size of one recent event, and also perhaps including the fact that they missed him when they took shots at him as part of your failure criteria.

Their job in this case was to protect Trump. There was a potential threat to his life from which he walked away, and the perp was apprehended. Had the SS not been there, not sure that would've been the outcome. Can't see how that rates a failing grade.

Nineteen out of Routh's last nineteen political donations went to Democrat politicians. Take your "Registered Republican" bullshit and shove it all the way up your ass until you can read it in back of your eyes.

Thanks.

Go fuck yourself. I simply asked whether he should have been able to purchase the AK-47. Don't blame me that both of the attempted assassins were Republicans.

88 and Smackie -- Thanks for your feedback. You both make a couple good points.

That said, I stand by my post.

Phone data indicated suspect had been by golf course for hours before rifle was spotted

A criminal complaint against Routh reveals more details about yesterday's apparent assassination attempt.

In addition to a witness account, Routh was confirmed to be the suspect using phone records that located him in “the vicinity of the area along the tree line” of the Trump International Golf Club from 1:59 a.m. until 1:31 p.m. on Sunday, the complaint said.

So he camped out near fence of golf course from 2:00 a.m. until 1:30 pm....Maybe he was selling tickets advertising an assassination attempt?

I don't know if he should have been able to buy a semi-automatic rifle. That's not up to me. I do know his social media posts and his financial donations indicate he's one of yours. Own it.

From Vox, not exactly a conservative publication:

Routh was registered in North Carolina as an “unaffiliated” voter and participated in this year’s Democratic primary. He had given money to Democratic causes.

Interesting. I thought he was from Hawaii. Did he have a NC address and driver's license in order to vote?

Your gangster party doesn't give the slightest of fukks about "lawful way". They have used banana republic style lawfare against him for years.

They impeached him for allegedly doing what Biden bragged about doing on video tape.

There is no excuse for political assasination, but you support the actions that have led to it.

This was the Assault Krifle’s fault!

Also, if Trump wasn’t acting like a 1930s Nazi Socialist every single minute of the day, this would’ve never happened.

His proposed policy on reducing the corporate tax rate likely enraged this usually casual citizen and literally triggered him, which again is Blump’s fault.

^^Yes, this exactly! Here in my backyard of the 14th district, Mayor of NYC Eric Adams (a former cop!) has been stoking the same fires as other 1930s Nazi Socialists like Grump, claiming that we have an illegal immigrant problem on 42nd St despite being a sanctuary city. Adams is your typical white supremacist who unfairly targets people of a peculiar tan complexion. It’s so typical. Defund the police!!!
