Whether you like Trump or hate him, you gotta admit, he handled that really coolly. He reacted as though he was just bit by a mosquito before realizing what was up and hitting the deck. And when he's being hauled off by his bodyguard, he still fist-pumps for the crowd. Definitely a stronger showing than everything Biden's done without anyone shooting him.
There are a lot of things I don't like about Trump, but I cannot deny that the man knows how to play to a crowd. Not everybody has a gut-level instinct, in a life-and-death situation, to think about how it's going to look and what the cameras and the audience are going to think. But Trump clearly does.
