It takes a lot of stones to re-visit the site of such a traumatic event. It will be interesting to see how the president reacts.

I'd say so. How many people, especially gun-phobic liberals, would be traumatized and suffer from PTSD if they came so close to getting their brains blown off that the bullet hit their ear? You'd never hear the end of it.
Brave and defiant. My hope is that he has recruited Black River Defense to make up for the criminally negligent Secret Service. Their multi-level incompetence is Intent. The swamp wants Trump dead.
I'm sure you have proof of that...

I’m not sure why it’s brave, to go to Butler, specifically. The shooter got his brains blown out in seconds, so it’s not like he’s still at large. Trump is no more likely to get shot at there than anywhere else. Doesn’t he campaign from inside a glass box now or something? Last time I saw him he was inside of a booth, basically
Certainly probably carries some PTSD with it though, and I empathize with him there, if so
I don’t blame him one bit, haha, that crazy kid really buzzed the tower. Too close for comfort
Maybe he should release his medical records so we know he's ok. All of them

Trump is in danger whenever he goes whether it's from assassins, the mainstream media or the MeToo movement, same applies to his family
Fun Fact
The MeToo movement won't go after Kamala Harris' husband Doug Emhoff after his sexual assault allegations
I think it's the point, to show he has the balls to do it.
Showing up with Elon too... nice.
I wouldn't do it because every crazy loon that's been feeding themselves leftest garble from the NPC news networks to the point of wanting to kill Trump will be looking at this spot as their chance to get rid of the orange man and take Twitter back to trans-loving communism like two birds and one stone.
He's got some stones going on there... ready to grab them by the pussy. 😂 🤣
Funny... I'm watching it live right now... Trump isn't out yet and everything is like corny awkward right now. For some reason, I thought it was tomorrow.
He's a crisis actor.
How could it have been staged when someone died and he had am earing hole drilled in his ear?
My wit, humor and bitingly acerbic sarcasm is lost on MAGAs. Crisis actors? Ya know like the ones at Sandy Hook according to bankrupt Alex Jones? Like the fake MAGAs at the capitol J6 insurrection? Lighten up Francis.
George Soros is the Sith Lord, and Kamala Harris is Asajj Ventress. George Soros does look like Palpatine by the way, only far more evil.
Wait I thought Democrat supporters are not into conspiracy theories. Oh yea, only when their disgusting Democrat party is called out.
We're not. Too smart for that. Like I said, lighten up Francis... 😂
There is nothing smart about you loser Democrat shills. You people are the definition of brainwashed puppets.
@exitseven Yea so he hired a 20 year old kid who sucked at shooting. By the way the kid was in a BlackRock commercial, and it's known that BlackRock is in bed with the Democrats and they invested a lot in the Ukraine war.
I'll type it slower for you... The assassination attempt was 💯 real. We're lucky he missed! That blackrock conspiracist silliness is a coincidence.
Sorry @dongie. That's one of my fav lines from movie "Stripes" Now THAT is a coincidence!!
yes, most people would have ptsd and couldn't go on stage.
Biden would claim he was shot at hundreds of times when he visited troops in Afghanistan. 🙄🙄🤣😂
No! Why would he be. Since what happened cannot happen again, is like any other place he visits.
"What happened cannot happen again." - Tom Brady, February 5, 2012, 6:29 PM
Anyone who runs for political office in this nation is a little bit brave, but I suspect that will be one of the safest places for any to appear in public for the rest of this election cycle.
I wouldn't call it brave I mean as a President current past or even a candidate there are always psychos who want to kill you
Nah, he's a drama queen, hoping to get another "TV moment" as his campaign is flagging.
Also, it wasn't a bullet for him, and likely something he (mis) planned himself anyway.
Yes, the man is brave and is willing to do everything to rescue America from the clutches of the FAR-LEFT anarchists that have taken control of our government.
Even to die for his country.
*former president Trump
For now. He still commands more power than Biden or Harris today. Europe listens when he talks. China listens when he talks. Russia listens when he talks. The Middle East listens when he talks. So do half of Americans. The other half doesn’t really care that much what Biden or Harris says and certainly the world doesn’t care at all.
Europe flies balloons when he talks.

@DryGermanGuy We, MAGA, do not support Europe anymore. You are cowards and cheap on your own defense. You do not support the US. NATO is for the history books unless Europe changes.
And Europe did listen as he spoke of leaving Nato. Now they are spending money on defense but will it be enough? Will Europeans man those weapons? Europe’s balls fell off after the Cold War.
If you know anything about the US, you should know it is the Republicans that man our military by 70-80%. We are joining less and less due to DEI.
We have supported the United States in NATO's only article 5 event so far strongly and in unity (9/11). It was George Bush jr.'s dumb decision to invade the irrelevant Iraq that endangered that unity.
Also I hope you're not another one of these pitiful Americans that doesn't know how NATO is financed, are you? I have explained it enough times here.
@DryGermanGuy George Bush Jr did make a terrible mistake. So did the CIA for believing the garbage intelligence they paid for out of Africa. And we believed General Powell.
I never felt that Germany truly supported us, not like we would have if the Soviets attacked Germany. My armored division was to be sent to Fulda Gap and we would have paid a steep price. We did protect Germany and kept it safe. Merkel mocked Trump and all of us by extension when he asked Europe to spend more on their own defense. She refused to give up cheap fuel from Russia thereby putting billions into the hands of Putin. Germany stated that Russia would not attack Ukraine in 3 days as the US had predicted… it was 4 days I think as Putin may have simply waited a day.
Yes, I understand that the small entity that is Nato and each country funds their military separately. But Germany is starving it;s military to the point where they are pretty useless. Even the Commander of Germany forces has said they are in trouble. They cannot field even one combat ready division and will take years to get there for one and then many more years for most. This leave more ground for US forces to cover which spread is thin. Germany is a hindrance to our own protection. Germans themselves are also pacifists and want no hardship financially for a strong defense. German is a weak link in a chain we should abandon for our own protection.
If you really want to go to the heart of it, it was Merkel at the NATO meeting with other Europeans glaring at Trump who asked them to spend more. He was right. They were traitorous. Unforgivable.
This picture broke my support of Nato. I suspect a lot of other people as well. The liberal press here also liked to rub it in our faces to show how Europe hated Trump and again, us by extension.
This "... us by extension" bullshit is childish and completely wrong. Drop the projection. We do not do guilt by association just because we don't like a certain politician. In a few months Trump and his Trumpism will be largely history and all these hysterics hopefully will calm down.
@DryGermanGuy I don’t support Trump as much as he supports my views. These are my views. It is not childish. It is a very real viewpoint. Germany is cheap and cowardly and expects the US to protect them because that is how it has been. They are even emboldened to mock us, your posting of the ballon and the fly of the ballon mock not only Trump but those who feel strongly on the same views. You simply do not understand and you should not step into US politics if you do not. Reading some liberal news from the US is not understanding what is happening here.
This is turning into our Zeitenwende on Nato and foreign relations. We would welcome a strong Nato but that will not be. We would welcome a strong Nato globally but that also will not be. Germany for one is too self centered and we know it.
And do you really believe that 50% or so of the population and the states will simply forget about it? You really don’t understand. These issues are here to stay. I have told people not to join the armed forces even though I served. Blue haired lesbians will not be fighting for Europe either. You really don’t understand at all what is happening here. Nothing ends with a Trump defeat.
Obviously you are really behind the developments. Because you have a language barrier, I understand much better what is happening in your country than you can what is happening in mine. Germany has set up a 100 billion special fund for modernizing and increasing arms production for the German army. We have equipped and sent a quick-reaction mechanized brigade to the Baltics. And we are part of the larger EU/NATO plans to build up an additional 40-50 brigades all over Europe. It will take time, but the Zeitenwende is happening. I certainly approve it.
Your math is incomplete. Not all US citizens are eligible to vote. Not all eligible voters are registering to vote. Not all registered voters are going to vote. We are talking about ~20-25% of the population for the GOP and ~25-30% of the population for the DEM. So whole not everything MAGA will end with a Trump defeat, large parts of his circus will. You can't keep up this ridiculous culture war pressure long-term, ask any sport team coach.
@DryGermanGuy First, Germany’s $100Billion is a one time investment. Your people complain about the legality of the budget and deficits as if we care. Even if, and I mean IF, Germany spends the money they need to spend a lot more and your population does not support it. You are buying time hoping the US will forget about it. You should have never allowed your military to die off in the first place. Taking years, as in the 2030s, to get your divisions combat ready is also ridiculous and again a stall with no real intention of doing it I believe. I am glad Germany is at least appearing to move forward but I just don’t believe it yet. Trust has been broken. But I would truly welcome a strong Nato if it happens. What is best for the world is if NATO took on a global role with democracies around the world such as Japan, Australia, New Zealand, South Korea and more. But Germany is too insular and I believe far too self centered to even consider it. I sense the wince on your face when you read this. No Allies is better than false Allies though. At least we will know what we are dealing with if war comes.
74,000,000 people voted for Trump in 2020. That is close to the total population of Germany. They also represent families, people too young to vote and neighbors who support Trump but didn’t vote.
People like JD Vance will be the face of the Republican Party moving forward. He will take the mantle and Trump will be a king maker in the party. It isn’t a culture war or pressure, it is the essence of who we are as individual people. You desperately want to believe this will end. It won’t as it can’t. We can’t stop being who we are at the core.
I google NATO every day. I stay on top of it. I even read https://www.dw.com/en/top-stories/s-9097 daily. I don’t claim to know or have an opinion on your politics, that is a difference between us. You can’t possibly know what is going on here as you are not living it for the past 30 years. It is a laughable idea. What I do know is that Germany is not ready and has not used the past 10 years to build up as they said they would and did not give us the support level I would have expected from a committed Allie. I expect nothing from Germany now. Their decisions are based solely in self interest which is why they will never be a leader in the globe. But we are tired of it. We don’t need you and you are a burden who provides little in return while asking a lot. I would trust the Russians more as an Allie.
@DryGermanGuy. I REALLY applaud your attempts to educate these fools. TY for trying! It's just futile. There's a better chance of trump telling the truth!
@DrPepper12 Oh please. You are a mediocre teacher at a mediocre school. You never rose to anything. I on the other hand rose in the largest companies and did business on six continents and many countries including Germany. I went from nothing financially to being what the finance people call high net worth and soon will be very high net worth. I’ve had a great relationship with my wife, raised three amazing kids all with their STEM degree Masters and working in their chosen field. He just wants the US to continue to pay for his protection which leads to more money for their social programs. How foolish of you.
Wow! What did I start? 😇😘❤️
@loves2learn. I'll take mediocre over a pompous mark every day of the week IF I respected your opinion... Alas I don't but I wish you well and congrats on your superior parenting skills!
@DrPepper12 It still doesn’t change the fact that “ He just wants the US to continue to pay for his protection which leads to more money for their social programs. How foolish of you.”. His school is better funded than yours as you fund US soldiers there so he doesn’t have to pay near as much for defense. Trump would change that before we run out of funds and you see deep cuts in all areas. He will then laugh at the US.
Mark (adjective) a person who is easily deceived or taken advantage of
@DrPepper12 well, it is the internet.
@DryGermanGuy No need to respond but I thought of you when I read this:
www.yahoo.com/.../...fence-spending-110336890.html
Not really. The threat is dead. Security will be much tighter this time. There's probably not a safer place to be.
An idiot. That is what you’d say if it were anyone else (Biden)
Yeah… he will return … that won’t stop him based on his personality.
He will win!!
He doesn't have a brave bone in his body. He is just more afraid of losing the election and going to prison than he is of being shot.
I thought he was a former president?
What brave about heading to a place where you stagged a failed shooting?
@exitseven Easy to feel safe when you tagged the shooting.
Yes, although his would-be assassin, who'd have turned 21 Monday, Sept.30, isn't around anymore and security will be vastly heightened.
of crse He moves forward. I hope brave but not stupid. He is too important at this time in US history to be killed.
Trump doesn’t lack courage
AGREED!!! He lacks ANY redeeming quality whatsoever. Courage? LMFAO!! I'm sure you salute Cadet Bonespurs...
@DrPepper12 I disagree. I don’t agree with his politics but I think Trump as a person is often unfairly demonized by people on the left. I think he’s doing what he believes is best for America and I do think Trump has the courage of his convictions. Whatever else he is, he’s not a coward.
All we know about psychopathic narcissist pathology refutes your claim. He only cares for himself.
He definitely has some screws loose for going back
Don’t worry, he’ll have plenty of anti-gun protection as preaches for the 2a.
Not in the least, but that’s not how he’ll spin it for sure 😂
*Former* President Trump
He's just doing it fir publicity
No. He knows security will be on very high alert.
Yikes 😳
