Drudge Retort: The Other Side of the News
Tuesday, May 05, 2026

President Donald Trump's voters stunned a political analyst on Monday after they accused the president of staging another "false flag" attack. Nine voters who voted for Trump at least twice told The Bulwark that they believe Trump may have staged the shooting at the White House Correspondents' Dinner. Some noted that the circumstances of the shooting seem implausible, given the level of security that follows the president.

Even the deplorable paste-eaters are starting to catch on.

All the assassination attempts have been for attention.

They're all fake.

All of them.

Exactly the case as in Butler.

What Butler and Washington proved is that even rank amateurs can get close enough to Trump to be a real threat.

This implies:

1) They had help from the inside

2) They were never actually a real threat

One of the implications of MAGA turning against Trump in Butler is that they now consider it possible that he would murder a man or two as part of a staged assassination attempt.

Well, they're right.

Dead because they were murdered.

It is not appropriate to call what happened at Butler and other places conspiracy theories.

Identify them for what they are: mysteries.

The kind of mysteries that should never collect around a president unless he abnormally chaotic, up to something, or both.

The golden dance hall was:

$200,000,000 and funded by himself.

then

$300,000,000 and funded by kickbacks from businesses doing business with the government

Then $400,000,000 and funded by the taxpayers

and now

$1,000,000,000 and crammed into a house oversight bill by the GQP.

Where'd the $300,000,000 go?

Same place the inauguration money went into the orange chomos bank account.

I don't want to hear one fucking word ever again about Hunter Biden you hypocritical piles of excrement.
