That is exactly what came to mind when it was reported the perp had no weapon, just a sign.

I'm telling ya - Trump is all about the theatrics and the spectacle.

And he knows the average Joe Sixpack eats it up.

Trust me, the God complex is going viral. Trump's supporters are so amped on his divinity that if they can't get him elected Savior of the U.S.A., they'll take martyrdom as a close second.

We can't be too careful here.

Michele Fields tried to get him with a pen bomb once.

Trump issued an appropriate response thanking the Secret Service (ie, someone must have wrote it for him)

Quote

Donald J. Trump Statement

"I would like to thank the United States Secret Service and the law enforcement resources in Reno and the state of Nevada for their fast and professional response. I also want to thank the many thousands of people present for their unwavering and unbelievable support. Nothing will stop us - we will make America great again!" - Donald J. Trump

A guy trying to raise a sign is scary.

Free speech is scary ...

... to Trump's followers.

They definitely deserve a Pulitzer for this non-reporting.

We've kind of hit on it, but reading twitter and FR, the part about this that really disturbs me is the lack of discernment and willingness to jump on the train by so many people. I see this story being fabricated out of thin air and passed around like the Chinese story game.

Someone on FR just wrote an entire narrative about this....

Quote

The people in the rally said he had a gun. They said he had it in a holster and the people around him spotted it and held his arm down where he couldn’t fire it until the Secret Service got there.

...and now everyone is passing that story around like it is the truth. Who knows how the story will change in five minutes.

Seems to me Trump supporters playing this up as an assassination attempt are playing a very dangerous game. The "Boy Who Cried Wolf" comes to mind.

No wonder Trump was spooked. The guy with the sign looks like Evan McMullin:

It's like watching old 1930's newsreels come to life in a digital age.

We're reliving a nightmare - and no one believes it.

Because people think human nature no longer applies in a technological age where morality and foundations are irrelevant and politicians are messiahs when government becomes god.

So if he is already out talking to reporters, that is pretty much a confirmation it was a false alarm.

Well if Twitter said it... LOL...

He is already free, outside talking to reporters.

If he did, he would be in custody.

@AbaraXas

I took a glance over there. It's as crazy as you'd expect...Hillary put out a contract on Trump, it was a false flag operation, the cameras swept away from Trump as it happened because it's a media conspiracy, etc. Someone was proud of the audience for not "tearing him apart."

One guy posted that it might not have been an assassination attempt and someone responded, "Pitiful FR commentary."

CNN is reporting that even though, the guy apparently did not have a gun, people thought the accused did have a gun and were even saying "gun" and you could hear them.

Maybe they have it wrong and he was rushing up to fall down at Donald Trumps feet in reverence.

Twitter also said "Hillary ran away from rain today. Trump is back on stage minutes after assassination attempt."

If it's on twitter, does that make it true?
