Good grief, just realized how this will also feed the Chosen by God crowd - Trumps head was in the cross hairs, then God gently guided the bullet around his head so it only grazed an ear.  Mark my words  the theocrats will be making hay by the canyon-full out of that miss.

They are already calling it divine intervention

Which it obviously was...it can be nothing else.
He should've died, by all earthly rights...like JFK did...like John Lennon did, like Lee Harvey Oswald did, like Abraham Lincoln did.
Assassins don't usually miss.

Except when they do.
 See
Andrew Jackson,
TEDDY Roosevelt ,
FDR
Harry Truman
Gerald Ford, ( twice)
Ronald Reagan

Divine intervention, all.

Much bleeding took place, so I realized then what was happening. "GOD BLESS AMERICA!", wrote Mr Trump on his Truth Social account.

It is a sign he should end his campaign and plead guilty to the dozens of outstanding charges against him.

Warnings do not come much closer.

Who knows.
There'd be a reason.

James Morrow;
Opinion
July 24, 2014.

Opinion: After the former US president escaped an assassination attempt at a campaign rally, it has revealed the real danger to America.

So, now we know who the real threat to democracy is - and it isn't Donald Trump.

Instead, it is the legion of Democrats, progressives, hard left activists, campus goons, and social media trolls who set the stage for the attempted assassination of the former, and likely future, president.

Even before we know who the shooter was or what his motivations were, the left has worked hard to demonise Donald Trump, make him and his supporters beyond the pale, and portray him as a unique and existential threat to American democracy.

Just a day before the attempted assassination - let's call it what it was - President Joe Biden tweeted "Americans want a president, not a dictator," pushing the idea that Donald Trump was a threat to democracy from the highest podium in the land.

He also told a group of donors, "It's time to put Trump in the bullseye".

Once-respectable publications from the Washington Post to The New Republic have called Trump "Hitler".[/i]

Oh dear.

No one should have let trump or his handlers in Russia get anywhere near politics much less takeover the entire republican party. It is likely to get much messier before democracy ever feels secure again.

It is a hell of a party the republicans have made of themselves.

A registered Republican, who also donated to the Democrats...reportedly.

So God decided Lincoln, Garfield, McKinley, and Kennedy were on their own?  Try to get those synapses firing, please.

...Instead, it is the legion of Democrats, progressives, hard left activists, campus goons, and social media trolls who set the stage for the attempted assassination of the former, and likely future, president.

Even before we know who the shooter was or what his motivations were...

...which renders his inflammatory opinion worthless.

GOP has consistently polled as more advocating political violence, if you would care to have a look...

We do not currently have an identified motive, said Kevin Rojek, FBI Pittsburgh special agent in charge, at a briefing on Saturday night.
The inquiry into what took place could last for months and investigators would work quote tirelessly unquote to identify what Crooks apostrophe motive was, Mr Rojek said.

So maybe yall can keep your panties from getting too twisted for a while and knock off the Left bashing and conspiracy theories and wait for some facts.  Facts - remember those?

[Oilcan]

Crooks seems to have provided, unintentionally or not, Trump with his very own Reichstag Fire.

In a widely reported call to hundreds of donors last week, Biden boasted,
I have one job, and that is to beat Donald Trump.
I am absolutely certain I am the  best person to be able to do that.
So, we are done talking about the debate,
Itis time to put Trump in a bullseye.
 
In a bullseye?

[Yankguy1]

I am glad that you have come around and that kind of language now bothers you.

[jmmengel]

According to Israeli Special Operations veteran Aaron Cohen if former president Trump had not turned his head when the shot was fired, he would not have survived.

God must have been watching down on the president, he said.

 Snipers are typically trained to shoot into the cerebral cortex of the cerebellum at the top of the brain stem. It incapacitates you, it keeps your hands from moving. It is about the distance of the shot. One hundred-thirty yards. That is a putt. Anyone can put a two, two, three, optic on a target from that distance and hit it. It is not a difficult shot to make.
