Cole Allen, the person who tried to get through security and into the White House Correspondents Dinner, wanted to ‘take out’ members of the Trump administration. What if he had succeeded?

Both Vice President JD Vance and Speaker of the House Mike Johnson, the first two in line of Presidential succession, were attending the White House Correspondent’s Dinner last night.

Next in line would be Chuck Grassley, who was not attending the dinner. He is 92, a dozen years older than Trump!

The order of presidential succession is Vice President, then Speaker of the House, then President Pro Tempore of the Senate (Grassley), then members of the Cabinet in the order shown here.

      Why the fuck would it be a false flag.

      The shooter manifesto literally mentions how he wants to put an end to the pedophiles at the dinner. How the fuck would trump benefit from more media attention on the epstein files?

      Stupid conspiracy bullshit. This is just the obvious consequence of the Trump regime. More and more people are fed up.

        He brought a shotgun to kill dozens of people? Really?

        If you’re that gullible, let’s talk London Bridge prices.

        Lemmy gets very stupid with these conspiracy theories, some incredibly complex for a frail 79 yr old with dementia to follow.

        It’s because most Lemmite lefties are too scared to actually do anything and assume everyone else is. Because they have the social skills of a mosquito at a funeral.

        So if someone with some balls does something.

        Well it must be fake.

          I think we can word this in a less inflammatory way. We are all in the same boat. Left unity is fucking scary to the billionaires. Let’s treat each other with more kindness ✊

            What good is unity when one group won’t believe a thing being done? And another group’s whole identity is based on that one Nickelback song?

              What good is unity? Well it allow us to fight back against the literal fascism that is taking root in the US and in Europe atm. Pretty worth it imo

                That the Americans leftists allowed.

                For a second time.

                Because they didn’t want to vote for a woman.

                But let’s ignore all that because you seem to have completely misunderstood my earlier statement.

                My first comment was calling out Lemmites in general as being antisocial shut ins that don’t have a clue how the world operates. (Like your comment right here shows)

                My second comment was calling out Lemmites for falling for conspiracy theories. And for having no actual idea for what they want politically, outside of that one Nickelback song (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IYnuSsM7tRw&list=RDIYnuSsM7tRw&start_radio=1) all posturing, but without any actual substance.

                You can’t have ideological unity, when no one has an ideology.
