It really is SO stupid to claim the ear shot was 'set up' unless they were literally shooting in the crowd at him.
Thanks to everything from wind, gravity and him moving his head a lot during the rally (which saved his life) it's one of the dumbest takes I've heard since saying Biden is fit to be president.
That's genuinely one of the craziest parts of the conspiracy that I've heard. The crowd was in on it.
The crowd
Like, the crowd knew that the gunfire was fake, and it was all hollywood, which is why they didn't run away, except for the guy who got his brains blown out.
That is some wild bullshit. Effectively: "Everyone in the sands and in the field, some couple thousand, they're all just paid crisis actors."
It’s just ideological possession in action. If there’s a 0.01% chance that it was staged, leftists will believe it because that’s better for their cause. The evidence doesn’t matter.
I know the guy who told me this and it wasn't ideological possession in his case.
It's more like media capture. He basically doesn't ever hear anything that isn't from a mainstream media source. He's one of those people that thinks CNN is center-right.
wait, what? They're saying the crowd was in on it? The old saying is 3 people can keep a secret if 2 of them are dead. And they're saying (tens of?) thousands of people at the rally were all in on it and not one of them spilled the beans? Ridiculous.
Yup, I heard that both from a friend of mine IRL, and a internet pundit.
As grating as I am on the internet, I am much more cautious IRL with my friends, so I didn't drag him over the coals about how retarded that comment was. I just told him I couldn't recall a single false flag in history where the target actually got hit, and gave him examples.
I mean, the Suicide Squad game had its plot spoiled, the Barbie movie had its plot spoiled, The Marvels had its plot spoiled, and that's just off of the top of my head.
Things from Disney and other studios get spoiled all the time.
Are people seriously saying the guy shot his ear on purpose? First I've heard of it.
My take was always that we have no confirmation that Trump got hit in the ear until after he goes down, other than Trump himself touching his ear. If he's in on it, it would be trivial to touch his ear, go down, quickly apply make-up over a couple seconds, then you're back up for the fist pump with your secret service flippers hanging off your arms.
Sounds like he's pushing a thoery that never existed?

IRL, you have to teach them out of the ignorance.
When's the last time you heard a spoiler for a Marvel movie? How many people work on those?
I mean, the Suicide Squad game had its plot spoiled, the Barbie movie had its plot spoiled, The Marvels had its plot spoiled, and that's just off of the top of my head.

They pay reddit moderators to add spoiler terms to automod, but if you search for spoilers or go to smaller communities you can easily get spoiled.

Some people are even saying the shooter shot the Teleprompter and it was glass that hit Trump. They're not joking either.
