May I ask - why on earth do you have to identify your political leanings in order to vote in the USA? Do you have have secret ballots?

Good catch, seems that combined with where the donation was made and the fact that there was a man by the same name in the state the donation was made lend a lot of credibility to the donation not being made by the shooter.I feel it's relevant to point out that he was 17 years old and in 11th grade when that contribution was made.
It had his address so I don't believe it was mistaken identity. But just pointing out he was young and it was before he was even old enough to register to vote.Good catch, seems that combined with where the donation was made and the fact that there was a man by the same name in the state the donation was made lend a lot of credibility to the donation not being made by the shooter.
The really messed up thing, though, is that, given what the Supreme Court said less than a fortnight ago, if Biden arranged this then absolutely 100% legal!There are some really insane conspiracy theories going around about this, as one might imagine.
The shooter must have known that he would not get out of it alive. Who is ready to give up their life for politics? Nobody sane, IMO.
It was rank incompetence. 130 yards with an AR - I was doing better than that at 200 yards with a .44 revolver the other week!If this was an arranged hit they'd have got someone who could actually do the job properly.
For some reason her absence has made me wonder if they are living seperately at this point.Has Melania said anything publicly yet?
I know we’ve seen reactions from Trump’s three eldest kids.
Barron had just started to emerge from being hermetically sealed by his mother, and I feel for him as he must be so terrified.
Personally I’d really like to see Melania show up, or at least release some statement about concern for her husband.
It’s really a bad look if she just decides to swan around in Mar-a-Lago.

You only have to choose a party when voting in the primaries. You have to tell them whether to give you a Democrat or Republican ballot. In November, for the presidential, senator, etc. election we can vote either way or vote some Democrat and some Republican offices or for another party. The ballot shows everyone that is running. Yes, our actual votes are secret.May I ask - why on earth do you have to identify your political leanings in order to vote in the USA? Do you have have secret ballots?
But he still had access to a high powered weapon.....Accounts from people who know the shooter's family make it seem this could lean in the mental health direction.
Or Trump didn't want her out in public for safety reasons. We don't know what kind of threats might be made against candidates and their families. Sad, but there are some people out there that take things too far.For some reason her absence has made me wonder if they are living seperately at this point.
It's confirmed in my mind. You're looking at the wrong Thomas Crooks. This is the shooter:

He's the one on the bottom at this link:
Browse Individual contributions - FEC.gov
Clicking on his name gives you the info, then clicking on the button on the top of that page that says Open Image gets you what I SS'ed at the top of this post.
Yet not old enough to buy a handgun!But he still had access to a high powered weapon.....![]()
SBMThe level of incompetence is shocking.
All stuff which will add to the insane conspiracy theories.SBM

I think so, too. Especially given that we've seen photos of the shooter on the roof getting ready to shoot, and we know police sharpshooters on another roof killed him after he fired.
That means police or SS should have spotted and taken him out before he could fire.

And typically, it's just a matter of human error or incompetence.All stuff which will add to the insane conspiracy theories.

Don't go biblical on us.^ Trump being one of them. Violence begets violence. No excuse for the attempt on his life but you reap what you sow.
