(3,194 posts)116. i think it's fairly obvious that trump can be behind something while not actually doing it himself
january 6, for example. winning in 2016, as another example. nobody believes he did these alone. also, it's clear to most that he's tip of the spear for both. so, asking the question whether trump is behind the shooting doesn't mean that trump single-handedly organized and executed it A to Z. trump has powerful backers, one of whom is putin. that's why putin's name comes up. remember the 12 Russian hackers that Mueller indicted in 2018 for breaking into US election systems? other people working on behalf of trump broke into US election systems. Understand?

Well, we're unlikely to ever know for sure, so I have no problem affectionately disagreeing.

My suggestion would be to watch less tv, and read less nonsense on the internet.

Exactly. I agree 100%. Just because he has millions of barely functioning idiots who support him

This is absolutely what's happening. Why else would they happen now instead of when he was in office?

The would-be shooter would have to volunteer or be brainwashed. Either way, if staged, why choose a Republican?
