    This isn’t just assassination, it’s terrorism designed to scare opponents of Trump from speaking out. The media won’t say that, of course, because it’s likely the shooter is white.

      Exactly that. Also, don’t forget that every chance they get they say “a man posing as a police officer” and they then describe that he was dressed exactly like a cop including a badge and cop car

      The shootings are the latest in a string of seemingly lone-wolf politically motivated violence.

      Good grief, could they whitewash this any harder?

      It’s also done on no kings day so we all know what the headline will be. Doesn’t seem like a coincidence on reflection.

      It was planned to be a distraction so news coverage wouldn’t focus on all the protests today. Can’t show bigger crowds in rural America than whatever few bootlickers showed up to watch Trump’s birthday parade.
