The Right Stuff

Attentatet på Trump var et afgørende øjeblik i historien, et øjeblik han instinktivt gjorde visuelt ikonisk og såvel som et kampråb. Når jeg skriver attentatet, så var det blot det seneste attentat, der denne gang var fysisk. De andre attentater var Rigsretter i et væk, løgne-kampagner og ‘lawfare’, hvis lige ingen nogensinde før har oplevet.

Attentatmanden var grangiveligt en ensom skør kugle der i de seneste 8 år af sine sammenlagt 20 års liv, havde hørt på, at Orange Hitler ville udslette alle minoriteter, før så at starte 3. Verdenskrig sammen med sin intime “ven” Putin. Nogen burde stoppe ham, pumpede medierne 24/7. Retorikken er ‘plausible deniability’!

 Først, Donald Trump selv

Thank you to everyone for your thoughts and prayers yesterday, as it was God alone who prevented the unthinkable from happening. We will FEAR NOT, but instead remain resilient in our Faith and Defiant in the face of Wickedness. Our love goes out to the other victims and their families. We pray for the recovery of those who were wounded, and hold in our hearts the memory of the citizen who was so horribly killed. In this moment, it is more important than ever that we stand United, and show our True Character as Americans, remaining Strong and Determined, and not allowing Evil to Win. I truly love our Country, and love you all, and look forward to speaking to our Great Nation this week from Wisconsin.

Meget bliver overset, som skulle blive bemærket, som Preston Meyers, former Staffer to President Trump der kommer med denne observation

The most important part of what he says is that in the moment when Donald Trump didn’t know whether he would survive or not because he had no idea if there would be more shots fired, he turned to the camera and spoke directly to the American people American and he told to fight for this country. He wanted to make sure that if this was his last message that it was one of strength and courage.

Watching President Trump walk from the airplane last night reminded me of the extraordinary emotion we felt when President Reagan who had been shot March 30 came to address a Joint Session of the Congress April 28, 1981. It was electrifying and heroic to have President Reagan walk into the House chamber just one month after being shot. The video of President Trump yelling “fight”and walking to his car while shot carried me back to that day. Heroic courage is rare and I have been privileged to see it twice in Presidential leaders.

I’ve been as big a Trump critic as anyone else on the right over the past couple of years, but what happened last night, Trump’s brave, defiant reaction, and especially the stunning photos that captured it, stirred something in me that I never knew was there.” skriver Scott Moorefield og tilføjer “If this didn’t change the world, it certainly changed me”.

Scott Adams er en af de helt store essentialister og siger at attentatet ikke rummer noget godt spørgsmål for Demokraterne. Var det inkompetence som følge af diversitetskrav i Secret Service? Var det et ‘inside job’? Eller var det Demokraternes ‘Trump er Hitler!’ retorik? – “And that means the election comes down to the ear hole versus the asshole”! Hvilket leder os til Trumps arm…

Kvinder kan ikke beskytte mænd, for mænd vil automatisk beskytte kvinder.

Adams påpeger at Biden nu ikke længere kan blive skiftet ud. Trump kan, hvis ikke han bliver myrdet, ikke tabe, og enhver Demokrat, der stiller op imod ham, vil blot være færdig som fremtidig præsidentkandidat. Samme grund som Lykketoft stillede op mod VKO maskinen, at gå ned i de flammer, der var sat op, for at give næste generation en mulighed for at starte på en frisk. Unburdened by what has been.

I en tråd siger den Demokratiske politiske strateg, Frank Lunz, bl.a

It will guarantee that every Trump supporter now will be a Trump voter in November.  Trump’s voters are energized, Biden’s voters are demoralized.

In recent months, President Trump has benefited from more passionate and engaged followers than the Biden campaign, but the shooting will turn that intensity gap into a chasm.  

That participation gap is worth at least +1% to +2%. And because the shooting happened in Pennsylvania, the impact will be most significant in Pennsylvania.

Trump’s defiant pose, fist in the air as he was being led off the stage bleeding, will be the visual people remember at the polling booth when they think about Election 2024. 

It’s hard to imagine either Biden or any of the potential Democratic candidates delivering full-throated crowd-pleasing attacks on the former President now, taking away most of their ability to play the Trump card by labeling him a “threat to democracy” when he just survived a real threat to democracy.

The 2024 presidential election is now Trump’s to lose.

Jack Posobiec påpeger at attentatet skete 11 minutter over 6 – og slår man op i sin Bibel hedder det i Ephesians 6:11: “Put on the full armor of God, so that you can take your stand against the devil’s schemes.”. Og Charlie Kirk tilføjer at næste vers lyder

“For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the cosmic powers over this present darkness, against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly places.”

Trump sagde, ifølge Byron York, ombord på sit Trump Force One

“The most incredible thing was that I happened to not only turn but to turn at the exact right time and in just the right amount,” Trump said Sunday afternoon in a talk aboard his 757 as he flew to Milwaukee for the start of the Republican National Convention. “If I only half-turn, it hits the back of the brain. The other way goes right through [the skull]. And because the sign was high, I’m looking up. The chances of my making a perfect turn are probably one tenth of one percent, so I’m not supposed to be here.”

“I had to be at the exact right angle,” Trump said at another point in the conversation, which included the New York Post’s Michael Goodwin. “Because the thing was an eighth of an inch away. That I would turn exactly at that second, where he [the gunman] wouldn’t stop the shot is pretty amazing. Pretty amazing. I’m really not supposed to be here.”
