Americans spend all their lives obsessing over guns then miss their shot. The most useless people on earth.

if someone wants to make a fortune, start ordering t-shirts with this on it
That's an incredible photo. Wow.
It's genuine Pulitzer prize material.
Yeah. That's a photo for the ages. I'd be disappointed if it wasn't a Pulitzer winner.

Excited to be executed by paramilitaries when he gets power. Nice talking to yall
Well, on the one hand, I've never materially been a threat to the established order in any serious way because I just sit at home, on the other hand said disability makes me a target anyway so. o7 to you as all as well.
I should probably get a gun or something.. at least take one down with me when they kick my door in.
I was dragging my feet on it but I'm 100% purchasing more than one after this event. If the brownshirts come knocking, I refuse to leave this planet with a K/D ratio below 1.

"If Trump wins its the end of US democracy"
"He'll make himself a dictator"
"Project 2025!!!!! Google it Jack!!!"
Dems using that propaganda AND doing absolutely nothing about it (not even having a plan to pay lip service to about it) AND Pudding Brain Joe saying he's not going anywhere - just he's going to do his goodest job and that's what really matters Jack. I can see where someone's brain could break in the wrong way to do this.
If you're going to throw your life away over this bullshit though, at least don't miss
When Gabrielle Giffords was shot in Arizona, Democrats blamed it on Sarah Palin having targets on her flyers or something. Didn't Palin win a lawsuit about it, even?
The chuds are going to be insufferable about this.

we really are a fallen empire. can't even get assassinations right nowadays
"he's an existential threat to democracy but there's no place for violence and we should all be relieved he's alive and going to take revenge" - obungler
Of course this is the take. So now they're going to soften their rhetoric and just inaugurate him next week.
You can even straddle the whole civility thing while using the situation. "Of course someone use violence. Trump promotes violence. Look at Jan 6. Look at Project 2025. If you promote violence as a tool of course people are going to use it." But no, they're going to just say he's a nice guy who's a simple participant in our grand experiment and we need to be nice to him.

Shows the importance of not skipping range time. If someone had trained just a little harder, we could have had something extremely cool happen.

/r/politics is in full-scale defeatism mode now. It's like 50% accusations of it being staged, and 50% despair that he's effectively already won.
50% despair that he's effectively already won.
After seeing the fistpump photo I share /r/politics feelings on this. I think this sealed it.
His victory was already sealed, this sealed him as a messiah for his 
supporters. He can do whatever now.

Americans: 
muh second amendment, if a tyrant tries to rule us we'll just use our guns!
Also Americans: 
we can't even kill one fast food addicted hog
This is why you don't do adventurism. Or at the very least if you come at the king take no chance at all that you'll miss. Trump is the last guy you want to almost kill, now he's getting elected and will have the focus and fury present that only an attempted assassination can invigorate. Vengeful Trump is way worse than normal Trump, normal Trump can't stick to a task, Vengeful Trump now has evidence that he might die if he doesn't. I understand the urge, but dude just fucked us all

blueanon people saying it's staged lmao
I dunno, if it was staged I imagine they would have done more of a Teddy Roosevelt "I was just shot folks, but these beautiful Secret Service men, all muscly and oiled, they saved me"

people saying this is staged by trump's campaign have absolutely lost touch with reality. no fucking way trump would ever agree to anything where he could possible be hurt, especially when he's already leading in all the polls
