"Trump’s response after almost being assassinated, standing tall with his fist in the air as a flag waved nearby, instantly became an iconic image, praised by both his supporters and critics alike." "In my opinion, the shooter, he just handed Donald Trump the election," he said on an episode of The Stephen A. Smith Show titled "Donald Trump is untouchable." "That is what I believe. Of course, I don’t know that as fact. Of course, things could change; but, in my opinion, he just handed Donald Trump the election." "Ladies and gentlemen, you can’t buy — I’ve been in media for 30 years — you can’t buy a better photo than what Donald Trump has at this disposal as we speak," he said. He then recalled the incident and how Trump had "blood trickling down his ear and the right side of his face" and then he "raises his fist, cringing his face up. ‘Fight, fight, fight.’ He says it three times. And while raising his fist, surrounded by Secret Service agents, the American flag is behind him." "Ladies and gentlemen, you can’t buy a better photo than that if you’re a politician!" "Make no mistake about it, Donald Trump, in my opinion, secured the presidency with this," he argued. "A Donald Trump that was impeached twice, a Donald Trump that had a $454 million settlement levied against him, a Donald Trump that was convicted on 34 felony counts yet was still the presumptive GOP nominee, that Donald Trump is now a martyr." www.msn.com/en-us/news/opinion/stephen-a-smith-declares-shooter-handed-election-to-trump-you-can-t-buy-a-better-photo/ar-BB1q8KpR?rc=1&ocid=winp1taskbar&cvid=c74f14dc75b744a2f44ab7559c8043c7&ei=14

I agree but he is not a martyr. Martyrs are dead. 😉

I'll write in somebody. Probably Haley although I do like Paulson even though he's been dead for 15-16 years. Being dead means he couldn't fuck it up any worst than the 2 running could. Stephen A. Smith is right though, IMO. I've said in the past, neither candidate will fuck it up any worst over the next 4 years and this country will survive. I'll make adjustments and move on. Once I heard that Trump was alright, I started reevaluating some positions and will move on with my life.

I hope there's more has beens like you on the anti-Trump side than on the pro Trump side.

There was no doubt who the candidates were, Trump and Biden. I did not like either one. That said, I would make adjustments to my world dependent upon who won and it was still close until the attempt on Trump's life. I agree with Stephen A. Smith on that. That action will give the race to Trump. Cad pointed out that his investments are up since the attempt. Looking at that, I believe Wall Street does not like uncertainty. The significance of the attempt on Trump's life removed a large part of that uncertainty.

Just remember all those bad choices you made in the past. A vote for either Biden or Trump is just another bad choice in your long list of bad choices.

Her agenda/goals/ good for the Country would have a far better chance of being effective under Trump than under Biden. You are not being realistic.

Of course I'm being realistic.
"Her agenda/goals/ good for the Country " will be realized as I'm quite sure Trump will be the next President of the country.
There are 4 more months left till the election and Trump could screw up but I doubt it. Trump has the momentum and Biden is not going to get better, probably worst.
I believe Trump will move more centrist to suck up that vote. Vance is his pitbull who will placate his (Trump's) core.

I think their policies were fine. Infrastructure improvement, lowered covid and war induced inflation faster than almost every other country, lots of jobs, pay rate increases, stock market records, veteran and environmental legislation, produced more oil than almost ever along with climate change policies, etc. I am earning and making more money via investments than ever and Im smart enough to not whine about prices that are beyond anyones control.
