    From the guy who said injecting bleach would cure Covid after staring into the sun during a solar eclipse

    Edit: to future Internet archivists … YES THAT FUCKING HAPPENED!

    Edit 2: of course you don’t believe me because it’s just too goddamn insane to be true, so here’s a fucking picture as proof

      We were so fucking close to having a blind president, assuming he wasn’t blinded by doing that and had the best meds available to cure it.

            Honestly, that’s too risky to stage. I don’t buy that for one second. Long shots like that are fucking hard, wind will make or break a shot at that distance. Even someone as dumb, irresponsible, and delusional as Mr Trump wouldn’t go forward with a plan that had a very real chance of killing him instantly. Planning to have someone shoot you in the ear with a high powered rifle just for the publicity/sympathy? No.

              Planning to have one of your supporters killed by a high-powered rifle and then using a squib to make it look like you’ve been shot in the ear is right up Mr Trump’s alley. Do you seriously buy that the security agency protecting the most powerful person on the planet wouldn’t think to keep an eye on one of of three rooftops within range of America’s most popular gun?
