How conspiracy theories and hate dominated social feeds after assassination attempt on Trump
You know who you are. The haters. The ones who stated Trump should have been murdered. The ones who said the bullet shouldn’t have missed its mark. He deserves to be killed because he sent hundreds of armed rioters to kill people at the “Capitol”. If someone says Biden isn’t firing on all cylinders, you attack the person or their families. Yes, you nitwits exist in this country.
This is for the conspiracy freaks who were lighting up the internet with “It’s a hoax! Trump planned it. Too many rounds fired for him not to have been hit. That wasn’t blood. When he went down he slapped his ear and the fake blood ran down his face. There wasn’t anyone killed.” Tell that to the man who was murdered when he dove to protect his family. I know you said the above because I dealt with you this morning.
But, to think about it we’ve all been guilty more than once in being a part of what the writer was conveying to us. The Left was gleeful the shooter was a Republican leaving out the part how he was getting involved into Leftist politics. I was hoping he was a Leftist so I could pounce on that bit of info. In reality none of us knew anything about the shooter, and you conspiracy lovers pounced on it being a hoax because you hate Trump.
Anyhow, it wasn’t a hoax. Trump lived through it. Two people, NOT 2 MAGAS, were seriously wounded…and an attendee, NOT A MAGA, at the rally lost his life protecting his family. We should all be so fortunate someone else would think of us before themself.
