92. The Reagan assassination

Wed Jun 4, 2025, 06:28 PM

Jun 2025

Did dominate the news cycle. To be fair though, Reagan was rushed to the hospital and was put under anesthesia for surgery so there was a lot going on to cover. Not to mention Brady was shot and disabled and others were also shot with a fatality. So a lot going on there, but we had high level reports and doctors who gave updates and such. None of that happened with Happy Meal Hitler and the Corporate media did not bother to ask any questions.

We're talking about TRUMP being shot,try reading all the posts. Bengus81 Jun 2025 #34

I don't think he gives a shit about anybody but himself EarlG Jun 2025 #37

and if it did happen like that, he'd never be able to not brag about it 24/7. FSogol Jun 2025 #52

That's perhaps the best reason to dismiss the conspiracy theory. YodaMom2 Jun 5 #154

I don't think trump was the target. Who ever organized it didn't care about the collaral damage of others... brush Jun 5 #141

A messed up 20-year-old took his rifle and a couple of explosive devices to a Trump rally, EarlG Jun 5 #147

Yeah, the guy who attempted a coup on the Capitol, fake elector scheme & P2025 would NEVER do this. Never. themaguffin Jun 2025 #61

I'd suggest you read through EarlG's posts in this thread. He is doing yeoman's work trying to steer folks away from tritsofme Jun 2025 #63

I don't like conspiracies, but the group that did 1/6, the Eastman memo, fake electors, doge etc would absolutely do themaguffin Jun 2025 #69

It's a single frame, captured by a professional photographer EarlG Jun 5 #137

I'm "suggesting" the single frame, the only frame depicting Trump as an "iconic" figure, was the one chosen sop Jun 5 #139

Okay EarlG Jun 5 #140
