We all know, from Secret Service reports, that the would-be shooter did not even have "line of sight," nor did he even manage to squeeze off ONE shot at agents, let alone at trump.
Why are these drama queens insisting trump "nearly lost his life?" Was he choking on a hamberder?

JD Vance should no longer be taken seriously by the media - he, too, needs a halt in the "sanewashing." Maybe more than Trump does. They both lie like a firehose...

It's OK if you're a Republican

It's been ok for republicans for ages. But if you are a democrat and you lied, the media would not stop talking about it. But republicans, it's just another "normal" day and nothing to see here.

untrue, but were red meat for his base

And they disappear like clock work the day after elections.
