Austin Tucker Martin. Happened just a few days ago. Unless you missed one of the previous two. One in Butler, PA, and another one around Mar-a-Lago I think.

They swept the most recent one under the rug fast.

Yeah, there was no narrative. It was a Trump supporter, who mainly supported him to release the Epstein Files. So when he realized that Trump is majorly implicated in them, and is one of those Billionaire pedophiles, he tried to take matters into his own hands, so to say.

So far all of his would be assassins have been his own supporters. It's almost like railing up a bunch of idiots who worship guns, and then subsequently pissing them off, was a bad idea.

How lucky can fascist assholes be? Adolf Hitler survived 42 times... Only the last one not... killed by himself. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Assassination_attempts_on_Adolf_Hitler

We can only hope Trump dies on age soon and the republicans lose due to that follower and power.

Right, I already forgot about him. Wow.
