e: Maybe not. My boomer mom thinks he wiped fake blood on his ear after having somebody pop off into the air. "Nobody, no matter how brave, fist pumps into the air when somebody is taking shots at them."
Meanwhile Trump will have new merch and ads up tomorrow.
Or maybe he'll realize that fomenting violent division will end poorly for him even if his side wins, because he'd be Target #1 for every armed leftist extremist, forever.
I'm at dinner with my husband and some normies we know. "Did you guys see somebody tried to assassinate Trump today at a rally? Almost took his ear off. A guy in the crowd died." I explained.
"Oh, interesting. Anyway..."
The non-political boomers I know think the whole thing is a little suspicious. The paranoid progressives I know think that it's awful convenient that this happened right as coverage of Project 2025 and Trump's child rape are finally gaining media traction.
I think the media framing will dictate how undecideds respond to this.
