There was a shooting at a Trump rally. Details are still being released. The meme is referencing the successful assassination of Shinzo Abe a couple years ago.
Were people hurt?? Ffs America
One attendee and the shooter are dead
Interestingly enough, all the dead are registered Republicans!
Every accusation is a confession with conservatives. Hmmm, how long till he’s a secret liberal?
Wait, is this confirmed?
Yeah, I'd want to see solid information on this. I just have to fight the urge to believe it because it confirms my existing biases.
This is what I've found: https://www.abc.net.au/news/2024-07-14/who-was-the-shooter-at-trump-rally-what-we-know-about-gunman/104096364
From that he was a registered Republican, but also donated to a Democratic vote registering initiative. This would've been the first election he was old enough to vote in. No word of his actual motivations, but the idea that he's a fascist who didn't like that Trump wasn't fascist enough doesn't seem to bear out from this article at least.
Christ.....
but NOT the anti-Christ, unfortunately.
Tbf, when one says "shooting" it conjures up images of an active shooter scenario. What happened was more aptly described as an assassination attempt. Target (trump) wounded (barely), one (or possibly two) bystanders dead, shooter dead.
Fun fact: this will be the 34th mass shooting in the month of July in the US. This qualifies as a mass shooting because there were 4 casualties.
Weren’t there only two casualties, including the shooter?
The shooter, the father that died, a second bystander that was in critical condition, and Trump.
