Trump saying that he heard shots and the Secret Service reacted. "Secret Service knew immediately it was bullets, and they grabbed me," said Trump during a live-streamed event on X, formerly Twitter, from his Mar-a-Lago resort. It's already been announced that Routh didn't discharge his weapon. Surprised he didn’t include something about how far under par he was for that round as well.

"I was playing golf with some of my friends, it was on a Sunday morning and very peaceful, very beautiful weather, everything was beautiful, it’s a nice place to be. And all of a sudden we heard shots being fired in the air, and I guess probably four or five, and it sounded like bullets. But what do I know about that? But Secret Service knew immediately it was bullets, and they grabbed me.
Everybody just, we got into the carts, and we moved along pretty, pretty good. I was with an agent, and the agent did a fantastic job. There was no question that we were off that course. I would have loved to have sank that last putt, but we decided, let’s get out of here.
He started shooting at the barrel, started shooting in the bushes. Could only see the barrel. How good is that? Right? Could only see the barrel. Based on that, he started shooting and ran toward the target and was shooting a lot, I mean, those were the shots we heard. The other one never got a shot off."

"We heard shots, and then the agent shot, and oh but the shots the agent shot were the shots we heard, the other guy didn't shoot."
Like... The neurons just aren't neuroing any more!

Yeah, they'll say he was talking about the agent shooting, but he's definitely tried to make out he was shot at again.
Surprised there's no fake blood this time.

Did we ever find out if it actually was a bullet or shrapnel that hit him in the ear the first time around? I remember there was someone from the FBI giving evidence who said they couldn't confirm at the time if it actually was the bullet.

Considering how quickly his ear healed up the theory it was a bit of glass from the autocue that hit him seems most likely.

I mean, either way there was a person close to him who took a shot at him. I'm not sure it matters whether it was the bullet that hit his ear or not.

Everyone knows he was shot at but he keeps saying he was shot which is just another of his many lies.

In the grand scheme of things, no, it isn't important. But, it is important to know the truth of what happened. If it was just a bit of glass that clipped his ear whilst he is going around telling everybody how he survived being hit by a bullet then that is an important distinction. Not because it makes the incident less serious, but because it shows that he is perfectly happy to use an assassination attempt for cheap point scoring.

I saw that last night and there's no nuance where you think maybe he said this, he definitely says the n word. Well there it is.

There's people astroturfing that thread to say he accidentally said "migger" or "mig-er" when trying to say migrants, but I listened to it over and over and there's no way he's making an m sound there, at all.

Yeah, I saw this last night too and incredible how easily that just slipped out. You can even tell by his expression that he knows what he has done and barely hiding a smirk.

Vance wants everyone to stop calling Trump a fascist.
Same guy who once called a Trump Americas Hitler.

There's something special about this kind of lying, where even if you ignore that it's a lie it's still completely insane.

Yeah, we're so backwoods we don't even have gun violence, the Elolctoral College, or even healthcare costing as much as gold and gemstones... Oh, wait.
Also I like this particular faux-pas
So, do you want free speech or not, loveseat lover?

Quite the balanced loadout, he had melee weapons ready too... I especially like the paw print design on the magazines, really shows he kept in touch with his inner child /s

Those are toy guns. At least most of them.

Airsoft guns do, which those are.
The knives look real though.

We went through a period of finding improvised weapons in my youngest's room, eg a broomstick with a kitchen knife tape to it, but on investigation it was just preparation for the Zombie Apocalypse. He was obsessed with zombies. He's turned out very well though, rejecting the far right nuttery that teen boys seem to absorb from the US these days...

As he's 11 I'm not sure he'd know what an LP is.
Yeah those guns all look like airsoft ones, possibly some real ones among them but mostly they're not dangerous.
Hopefully I won't ever have my M1911 airsoft gun put on a table for some reason, it's very much only a danger to myself if I fire it indoors and get hit by a ricochet. I bought it about 30 years ago so no orange end on it.
