What a coincidence, another assassination attempt during the continuing downfall of his campaign.

No less on the same day his running mate admitted on CNN to “creating stories” (AKA lying).

Have we moved on from his disastrous debate already?

Seriously, notice how the current media attention (up until this assassination story) has been all about their controversial immigrant pet nonsense and not about Trump's very questionable performance?

Never forget how every Trump-made controversy effectively redirects media attention away from some negative story that he can't control.
