The Media Bias Assassination Attempt on Trump

The Media Bias Assassination Attempt on Trump

At 6:11 pm (ET) today in Butler, Pennsylvania during a MAGA rally while President Trump was speaking multiple shots rang out, striking Trump on the right side of his head near his right ear, it is also noted that 1 MAGA rally supporter was killed shielding his two daughters and two others were seriously wounded. Almost immediately secret service agents took out would be assassin 20 year old Matthew Thomas Crocks.

While President Biden was quick to publicly condemn this attempted assassination the media was still publicly treating Trump with contemptuous headlines “Trump say’s he was shot” and “Possible assassination attempt”. Social media posters falsely claim that “Trump set this whole thing up” even with Trump and 2 others wounded and 1 rally goer and the shooter dead.

It’s not surprising since over the past 8 years Congressional legislators and Hollywood “elites” have called for actions such as what happened today. After January 6^th House Speaker Pelosi and House Democrats have attempted to create a “disgraced presidents bill” and other actions that would strip secret service protection from Trump.

It has been reported that this is the first Presidential assassination attempt since Reagan in 1981, but is that even accurate? Remember when Obama feared Somali extremists in Milwaukee were going to launch an attack on him after he became the President-Elect in 2006? Have there been other under-reported presidential attacks that we have never been told about? Today’s secret service detail had both male and female agents and they responded rather quickly.

I was pretty ticked off when in 2017 a female secret service agents assigned to newly elected President Trump’s detail said she would not take a bullet for him. She was quietly moved to another secret service detail. Was she in the minority?

While world leaders weighing in on this “shocking” development, the left leaning media and left wing radicals still try playing off this shooting as a Trump stunt.

I’m trying to pin down a CNN story which suggests that “prior to shots being fired a sheriff’s deputy spotted a person on the rooftop armed with a rifle, but that person pointed his weapon at the officer.”

My questions, why wasn’t that person immediately engaged and what did the deputy do about it?

Prior to the start of the RNC Convention in Milwaukee, WI President Trump has re-written his opening speech to be more unifying and without the harshness of bashing President Biden, who on the other hand in his speech from the Oval Office has promised to “tone down” the rhetoric and bring the campaign back to the realities of his record and his policies, rather to the political mudslinging – at least until the RNC Convention gets underway.

It sounds like both sides are willing to bury the hatchet and not just a democratic figure of speech either.

I have just finished reading the book “Butler” by Salena Zito which gives a firsthand account on July 13, 2024, that is a very detailed and comprehensive look at the day that America changed and how the democrats and their left-leaning media continue to miss it big time.- RTM
