The amazing thing is not people forgetting about Trump's shaving nick, it's them forgetting about the dude who was actually killed.
"Forgetting". They do not want to start pulling that thread and I suspect that it is because of instructions from above. No one wants any focus on it. Republicans because of why would a republican wanna kill Trump and general gun control? Not an area where they want speculation to start running. As for the Democrats, investigation into what the fuck the secret service was doing will land on them being the sitting government. So under the carpet it goes. Lone maniac and nothing to see. Move on please.
I think they meant the retired firefighter who was standing behind Trump. No offence, but It's pretty telling that you also didn't think of him, as neither did I at first reading.
Sure, but my point still stands. If they lift the story and wanna keep it running, what are they gonna do to keep it interesting? Trump still got some minor pain in the ear, news at 6? If a story is gonna be interesting there needs to be new stuff and where is that new stuff and interesting angles gonna come from? Gunman still dead? If they are gonna keep it alive, and they could if they wanted to as there's plenty to draw from, but as I said, no one wants that. And a sore ear isn't gonna cut it for a sob story on Trump either. Emotional stress? Then you're into "weak and can't hack it" territory and that would be so very denied by Trump it makes me smile.
It is funny because HE wants the story so bad and how he is the big hero and tough and shit, but the people around him basically having to sit on him to prevent him from doing something stupid and trying to tell that story, because that would fail spectacularly and be so funny to watch, even if I do have a hard time watching cringe happen. I may make an exception in this case.
No one wants this story because of what it would drag with it. Only Trump wants it, but he can't have it, poor guy.
