Alleged 😂, Forbes journalist are so stupid
Conveniently when approval is plummeting
It's odd that trump hasn't attended a correspondence dinner since Obama was president, until this very one …
Enjoy life behind bars DS!
I love how no one trusts this shady administration
Didn’t liberal DC judges let him go yet ?
Maybe we should rubber stamp everything like the last administration . Who was actually running the White House Jill Biden and the communist Obama? Didnt someone drowned at Obama,s home? What happened to that story? Anyone
This sounds double fake wow
A british music trio from the 80s called The Thompson Twins have a song called, Lies,Lies, Lies . Thats what this clown show is. The security videos in this administration always seem to look like shit or like the Epstein video comes up missing.
Fake news from the most popular 3 letter agency 😂😂😂😂😂
Bread 🥖 and Circuses 🎪 for the 🐑!!!
I dont get it, if trump is a pedohile, cold blooded murder, how is this bad?? makes no sense
Another Marxist nut who donated to Kamala's campaign.
Nobody explains how was this guy able to enter inside the WH dinner bearing an arm???😊
Yah he had them nick his ear and kill some poor guy must of been a great shot you people are sick what war did you fight in
Corey Booker said he wanted foot soldiers just the other day. Leftists are weaponizing crazy people.
He just didn't know what he's doing.
Why does the mainstream media refuse to acknowledge that this was another “attempted Assassination”?
Staged, just like the last two.
This is kind of world that we live in now
We live in a world where people actually believe that President Trump stole the presidential election because of Elon musk.
People believe that President Trump faked all three of his assassinations.
people no longer care about the truth, people make up the truth because it aligns with the way that they feel. And anyone with a high IQ understands the concept of life, understands the truth in a lot of different ways goes counter to the way that you feel.
Yeah for sure for sure. Best security in the world but allows this dude in
Something is fishy here trump trying to distract us Americans this is all staged don’t trust politicians
Looking at the photo it appears to be the usual suspect
This is so called a distraction for attention. Fake news.
Allegisists – as usual. They have become so disconnected and dishonest they cannot or will not discuss the truth even when it's on film. Forbes is run by vile and disgusting people.
Read this out loud!!! The written portions of this flip tooooo fast to be read !! Shame on you!!!!
Well at least one American has some balls.
Well, when you keep treating Americans like shit, you have to expect the worst!
Fake and staged.
Well looky there – another Shitler alleged assassin! Can someone find out how much the MAGA-gang paid this guy? You KNOW the purpose was to show how much Shitler needs his new ballroom, right?
Staged event like before.
Big whoop.
If he actually called himself a federal assassin that explains why Miller hired him for the fake.
When you put hate out in the world like Donald Trump does, you bring hate back in
Strange that a genius would care about politics 😅
The world is a stage … and if you don’t believe in false narratives…. Use your brain and read or investigate…
Let’s do this———promise we will build a ballroom when a Democrat is in the White House or an Independent or any other party BUT not while Trump or a Republican is President!!!!
That's the most terrible editing I've ever seen. you simple cannot read it.
"there will be shots fired tonight" – caroline leavitt
they have to tell you what they are going to beforehand….it is all part of their little sick twisted game.
Anybody still living with their parents after the age of 18 in the United States needs to monitored and surveilled effective immediately. I can't believe this… he could've just slept on the sidewalk in a tent and this would've never of happened!
John 6:47 "Verily, verily I say unto you he that believeth on me hath everlasting life" -Jesus. Jesus of Nazareth, The Messiah, died for the remission of sin, including yours. He was buried and rose from the dead three days later. Whoever believes in him to save them from hell has everlasting life.
.@POTUS: When you're a consequential president or if you have a consequential administration, things happen that wouldn't happen if you're Joe Biden.
Something is really wrong with human Justice system!
If international law FAILED TO punish mass murderer war criminals to bring them to justice, and they are free and continue committing inhumanity.
Yet the assassin of JUSTICE will likely face very serious conviction!
THIS IS VERY VERY WRONG!!!
Human has got to do better!
He's a sitting lame duck; quack, quack, quacked!!!
Unlike the case of Lee Harvey Oswald, they got the assassin alive this time. Let's protect him well until he face the court of law. No more conspiracy.
It was staged in a further effort to distract from the Epstein files. Release the Epstein files now!
