My bolding.


'Provenance'? Or did you intend to say 'providence'?

And miraculous? Turning your head is miraculous?
I’m using the word incorrectly. It’s not a synonym for divine deliverance from catastrophe or death like I had thought.

We use the word miraculous all the time. For example when someone with stage 4 cancer miraculously goes into remission. The way the Trump happened to have turned his head slightly just before the shot seems as miraculous as those people who are cured from cancer.

It doesn’t prove the existence of anything divine, it’s just a way to express how incredibly unlikely that sequence of events was and just how close the course of history came to being very significantly changed. Especially if Trump is re-elected.

A number of left leaning media outlets preferred to report on the assassination attempt as “Trump experienced a fall” despite seeing secret service agents literally shield him with their bodies. The amount of bias on the reporting was incredible, and this conspiracy idea that the shot was nowhere near and Trump was hit with teleprompter shards still persists.

Trump narrowly escaped death by pretty much the smallest margin imaginable. Full stop.

Ah, thanks.

He certainly did.

Coincidental is a better term than miraculous, in terms of accuracy.

Not sure what thread to put this on. Trump's got nothing left but his own delusions. Saw this mentioned on Brian Tyler Cohen youtube. So of course I toddled on over to Truth Social to check it myself. Yep it's real.

Tonight on Truth Social apparently after Harris announced her VP pick...
What are the chances that Crooked Joe Biden, the WORST President in the history of the U.S., whose Presidency was Unconstitutionally STOLEN from him by Kamabla, Barrack HUSSEIN Obama, Crazy Nancy Pelosi, Shifty Adam Schiff, Cryin’ Chuck Schumer, and others on the Lunatic Left, CRASHES the Democrat National Convention and tries to take back the Nomination, beginning with challenging me to another DEBATE. He feels that he made a historically tragic mistake by handing over the U.S. Presidency, a COUP, to the people in the World he most hates, and he wants it back, NOW!!!
Link to his truth social...have yourself a look see. No really, just look it over good and proper. Then tell me who you think the lunatic is.

Now look, something came to me the other night. When he says things like this:
Kamabla, Barrack HUSSEIN Obama, Crazy Nancy Pelosi, Shifty Adam Schiff, Cryin’ Chuck Schumer
Doesn't it sound like he's announcing professional wrestling? Or nah?

Like Rowdy Roddy Piper or Jessie "the body" Ventura from back in the day? Now when I read this stuff, I hear it in Vince McMahon's voice.

:lol:

I think you nailed it, Jersey!
"I have learned with what evils tyranny infects a state. For it frustrates all the virtues, robs freedom of its lofty mood, and opens a school of fawning and terror, inasmuch as it leaves matters not to the wisdom of the laws, but to the angry whim of those who are in authority.”

No, he sounds like a whiney toddler. Nobody in the history of fame has been this much of a baby. He'd be a nobody, probably in an institution, had he not inherited over 400 million dollars. This is a big reason I think there should be a 90-95% estate tax. Handing kids a lot of money is bad medicine (I just watch Dances With Wolves the other day).
Religion is for people whose existential fear is greater than their common sense.

The god idea is popular with desperate people.

It’s weird how Trump had to have his security briefing taken like this:

Just look at this bs. Does JD Vance think he's in a made for tv drama series or something? He shows up in Wisconsin in the Trump jet with a posse of some sort...at a Harris/Walz rally. No really. That happened. These people have lost the plot, lost all touch with reality, and are slap out of their minds! Was this supposed to impress someone or make someone call for a well check?

This is total insanity. Critics will have a field day with this.
