Thought Experiment - What if the shooter had succeeded ?

.....what if Trump keels over with a heart attack?

No one at this point would believe it was natural causes.

If Trump dies...it's probably the end of the road.

That's my honest opinion.

Four millimeters to the left would have changed America forever.

Except the shooter doesn't appear to be a leftist. He appears to be a whacko with an assault rifle.

Yep, it would have finally unleashed that civil war people talk about or represent that moment when future historians will not as the demarcation between us living in a democratic republic and living in an oligarchy.
 
Don't think I asked if you would have.

OP thread title literally had that Q in it. so i figured i'd answer it.

Because I could care less if you do or don't.

understand, don't give a fuck.webp
 
That is truly scary to think about.....if the "change" is what I think you are implying.
I'm just telling you what I see on the horizon.

I'm not implying anything.

I'll straight out tell you...the next logical step from here is "The Troubles".

If you don't know what that is...you can start here...

 
I have to wonder:

Would things have calmed down ?

Would there have been clashes ? It was reported that shortley afterwards, some of the crowd started menacing the press box until cooler heads prevailed ?

What would the GOP have done ?

Would the election have been delayed to give the GOP time to chose a new candidate (and of course, the same question comes up....what if Joe Biden dies of a heart attack on September 1st ?).

I am voting for Trump and I want him to win.

But I don't want a civil war.

I also can't think of who would take his place. It forces to me to really wonder what it is that DJT can do that nobody else can do.

Just wondering.
Democrats have taught us that political rhetoric from Republicans leads to violence, and therefore should be censored.

I have a feeling that many Trump supporters would blame the Democrats' constant vile attacks on Trump for this shooter's attack.

But I doubt that many of us would commit similar acts to BLM and ANTIFA. Trump supporters have skin in the game. We have jobs, families that we take care of, and respect in our communities. You see a mob looting a store, you gotta figure the members of the mob have little to lose, or they wouldn't behave that way.

It won't be a civil war like the North against the South.

At least not at first.
