For me personally, one of the things this shooting reinforced was a long standing frustration with the level of division we have in our country right now. We need to go back to a time where we could disagree without tearing our detractors down. Part of that has to be actually listening to our opponents and not deliberately misrepresenting their views. Straw man arguments don’t help. They only cause further division.
I admit, I had that thought too. In the end I don’t see that it matters. I read a lot of discussion on Quora in the days after the assassination attempt. I’m no gun expert but there are a few here that I respect. From the information we had at the time, they said the angle wasn’t right to be the teleprompter. But the available footage was limited.
I know you think we’re all morons but none of us think Trump was shot at with a glass bullet. The claim being made is that rather than being grazed by a metal bullet, maybe a bullet struck a glass teleprompter which sent shrapnel that cut Trump’s ear.
Recently the FBI director testified that the investigation still hasn’t determined definitively whether Trump was wounded by a bullet or glass shrapnel.
This is incredibly stupid counter to what could very well be false claim on the part of Democrats.
And yes, I call out my side when I see them do this too.
