The rhetoric in politics both here and abroad is pretty vile at times.
From Angela Rayner calling the Tories scum, in parliament, to some of the stuff - on both sides in America - it is all pretty bad.
The trouble is that idiots fixate on it, believe it to be true and then try and do something about it and with gun - no - laws in America as they are, is it any surprise that some kid didn't think twice before taking a pot shot at Trump.
He probably thought he was helping the world.
It is all crazy and they need to wind down the personal stuff and words like "bullseye" from Biden on Trump and the BBC guy here posting that Biden should take Trump out, should be treated severely.
How the BBC guy still has a job I have no idea.

This is nothing new,Aneurin Bevan Health Minister and Housing Minister 1945 onwards said that the Tories were lower than vermin. The press the next day said he called the Tories vermin, so he called a press conference the following day to explain,he did not call them vermin they are MUCH lower than vermin.

Is this whataboutism or are you confirming that the left have always been tossers?

I'm not sure.

One thing is for certain, given the response from many s***-Libs, is that we are heading for a shooting war at somestage. Because if they start celebrating attempted political assassinations then you have to assume that we are well past the stage of Jaw Jaw.

These f***ers would have been literally celebrating in the streets if Trump had been killed. There can be no more giving them the benefit of the doubt.

Never has the friend/enemy distinction been so vitally important to grasp.

I have seen no such responses. Mind you I don’t go looking for them either so maybe in odd corners, that are the polar opposite of this one, they exist.

What’s for sure is that mainstream opinion won’t any more be celebrating this than celebrating any other shooting. The way to defeat bad ideas is with better ones.

Blimey, that's a new one . . .

It isn’t but the difference with Trump is that they must be mates first and only. Competency is not required.

What amazes me is how readily people here, and on the right generally, are unable to determine context.

The “BBC guy” was David Aaronovitch posting in his own name on X in the light of the Supreme Court ruling about Presidential immunity. It was clearly satire, a parody about where the limits of Presidential power now lies. He was by far not the only one to make this point. It was not a serious suggestion. It was a serious point about a concerning development.

Reacting to it with demands for bans and sackings is simply ridiculous and evidence of a narrow mind.

Trump suggesting he could get away with shooting someone on 5th Avenue wasn’t treated by the left as a serious threat he would do it, was it? They didn’t demand he be locked up for that.

What you actually already know is that I am not a troll.

I have posted here for many years. That I hold opinions that differ from the majority here is obvious, but out in the real world mine are much closer to the majority view than those inside the right wing bubble that dominates here. It’s you that’s unusual, not me.

This is not a site devoted to right wing politics. It is a forum of the football club I have supported for 70 years. I have belonged since its inception.

Trolls deliberately disrupt. I don’t. I post my opinions. Opinions of a fellow supporter. You don’t agree with them. I don’t agree with yours. That’s life!

I personally don’t think you’re a Troll and see your commitment towards the club we have all supported since childhood.

I consider myself a very normal middle of the road citizen who has worked every day for the betterment of his family. Not right wing in any way just normal and average.

I have little affiliation to Trump although did quite like the “celebrity apprentice”. Joe, his political cohorts, immigration, foreign policy, inflation, WOKE ideals, media bias etc have driven me that way.

Living this on a daily basis in the US is draining. You’re not alone in your comments and beliefs but no less palatable than your mirror image on the right!!! The “majority” of normal Americans are in the middle forced to choose a side!

I have chosen mine, and will live with the consequences!!

wow, just wow.

The American economy seems to be doing quite well from the data i can see abortions have been the woman's right to choose for c50 years now they are the big problems.

Trump, who is late 70s and essentially lives on a diet of McDonalds, has made many gaffs himself of late and has court cases piling up in addition to the ones he has already lost.

If he gets back in he will enable Putin to take over Ukraine (is he already a Russian asset - the FBI are unsure!) which will destabilise the whole of Europe and potentially further afield e.g. China in Taiwan, he will reverse any climate change initiatives and will put all his mates into senior positions.

To say the US economy is doing quite well is the 'wow' factor here.

Sure Trump makes gaffs, however he isn't in cognitive decline and he hasn't had a massive media machine lying about it.

Considering Biden is president the fact that the US left have been covering for his decline for years sums up their moral position entirely....they have no leg to stand on with Trump as they have lied enough for satan himself.

Excuse me but calling Trump a Russian asset after security services have wasted tens of millions to find no evidence for it speaks to us that facts don't mean anything to you.

Russia has already destroyed Ukraine as a country and it could all have been avoided. Trump will bring peace to this war, but no....Russia won't be taking all of Ukraine....People like you and me will be paying for it for generations to come.

All because the State department have had a policy of regime change in Russia and having failed now have us pay for it.....along with higher energy and food prices.

But hey, you keep blaming Trump.

If Aaronovitch had made an assassination comment about Biden they would have sacked him.

I would have criticised the comment but not sacked him.....However, the left have double standards on free speech.

If it's their tribe their attitude is different and the excuses come in....if it's their political enemies they always seek to punish.

Stick labels on lamp-posts go away for two years and get banned from seeing your kids.....Talk about the democrats offing Trump and....suddenly it's satire.

Yeah...we see you.

Probably crying as he pulled the trigger.

The counter sniper made a mess of his head.

However, considering how fast he was shot after shooting they must have known his position....dodgey.

I understand and respect that. I have realised you aren’t part of the “base” but I personally could never accept anyone like Trump and don’t agree that Biden has done a bad job. I think he gets a bad press. Forced to choose between the two it would always be Biden, but I would prefer almost anyone to Trump, so that is not a ringing endorsement.

Which is why I hope and expect the Democrats to find a way of putting up another candidate who “normal” Americans can rally around. They need to, for the sake of everyone.

There we go again. Complete context blindness. Is it a disease that particularly affects right sided thinkers?

Aaronovich did NOT suggest “offing”Trump!

He made a farcical observation as a consequence of the Supreme Court ruling.

Very accurately in my view.

It deserves appreciation. Not censorship.
