That's basically his job. Contribute to the narrative that MSNBC wants to sell.

It doesn't make him a reliable narrator. He's simply wrong here, and probably intentionally so.

"It's Trump's right not to release it!!!!" Prairie Gates Jul 2024 #5

Also, remember how Trump hollered that he wanted to see Obama's transcripts? Prof. Toru Tanaka Jul 2024 #36

Agreed. Very good chance he was hit by same debris as the officers BootinUp Jul 2024 #2

Don't get caught up in the teleprompter Prairie Gates Jul 2024 #3

"you're going to hear about 100 times below..." TwilightZone Jul 2024 #31

I don't think it matters AkFemDem Jul 2024 #4

Yes... A distinction without a difference and only makes us look like grasping conspiracy theorists... hlthe2b Jul 2024 #6

Its an attempt to steal his narrative/expose a lie. Not worth spending too much time on BootinUp Jul 2024 #10

No. It can only backfire on us. hlthe2b Jul 2024 #12

I don't think anyone much cares what you OR I think. Lets be honest. BootinUp Jul 2024 #15

The media would love nothing more than to highlight this (and the expected outrage by wounded and dead family members) hlthe2b Jul 2024 #19

Well, you are totally distorting what is being said. If your point is that it WOULD be distorted BootinUp Jul 2024 #20

Yes, of course I am saying how it would be distorted. REALLY, BootinUP? hlthe2b Jul 2024 #22

Concern/Offense how about less of all that. I am going to work and not thinking about BootinUp Jul 2024 #24

Have a nice day... hlthe2b Jul 2024 #26

It's a mole hill looking for a mountain. We shouldn't be feeding it. Like you said: he was shot at, doesn't matter ... marble falls Jul 2024 #13

Agreed. yardwork Jul 2024 #27

He was't struck by anything Joe Cool Jul 2024 #7

how does that work - air pressure? Blues Heron Jul 2024 #16

Either way, it's time to get over it. Let FBI and SS take care of it. marble falls Jul 2024 #9

its a message board - speculation is our bread and butter. Blues Heron Jul 2024 #18

Factless speculation damages our cause. DU is noted by outside observers for sticking to facts and reality. . . . nt Bernardo de La Paz Jul 2024 #30

It's always concerning when people try to squelch discussion of important topics Blues Heron Jul 2024 #34

Factless speculation is not the best discussion. Exactly what injured in assassination attempt not very important Bernardo de La Paz Jul 2024 #39

Oh, you're "concerned" now, are you? muriel_volestrangler Jul 2024 #51

There is NO "shattered teleprompter". Bullet grazes are grazes, not like centre-on exploding apple cores Bernardo de La Paz Jul 2024 #11

I think if Trump was really hit by a bullet he would be demanding a doc03 Jul 2024 #14

As he said to RFK Jr., "it's a very tough gun, right?" Prairie Gates Jul 2024 #17

Main thing duncang Jul 2024 #21

He faced left. He was looking front, then turned to his right, which is the left of the stage Bernardo de La Paz Jul 2024 #33

He was facing to his right. duncang Jul 2024 #56

Either way, he almost died for YOU. Goodheart Jul 2024 #23
