And with a GOP House majority of no more than 9 votes,
two of them unfriends of Trump, at risk of being further
reduced in special elections to fill seats vacated to serve
in the administration - even two years isn't guaranteed
this time.
The obvious solution is to put an end to free elections
once and for all. As in Russia, China, North Korea, Iran.

The electoral college wasn't just about protecting the
southern slavery-based aristocracy, although that was
part of it. It was more generally intended to protect
the educated ruling class from the ignorant whims of the
largely uneducated masses.

Protecting the masses from the selfish whims of the ruling
class wasn't considered until much later -
There are two ideas of government. There are those who
believe that, if you will only legislate to make the
well-to-do prosperous, their prosperity will leak through
on those below. The Democratic idea, however, has been
that if you legislate to make the masses prosperous, their
prosperity will find its way up through every class which
rests upon them.

The Trump shooter had no discernible political bias.
He just wanted to shoot a president.
Reality-based propaganda:
https://www.arcamax.com/politics/opeds/s-3333310
As in 1930's Europe, and later in Argentina and elsewhere,
the fascist right and communist left traded atrocities.
But in America in the 21st century, the organized
invocation and execution of violence is a particularly
right-wing phenomenon, just as it was in the South for
centuries.
Name ONE prominent Trumpist candidate who advocates
non-violent civil disobedience from the right, or who
advocates non-violent response to non-violent civil
disobedience from the left. That wouldn't appeal to
their base - who mostly had no kind words for Martin Luther
King Jr while he was alive, and many not even now.
Looking back a few years, George Lincoln Rockwell was not
shot by a woke liberal, but by a confused member of his
own American Nazi party. So it goes - violent rhetoric
begets violent acts.

All Harris has to do is turn 100,000 swing votes in swing
states - and keep them. But what if all the voters

to vote Democratic anyway? Maybe her energy is better
spent campaigning for tossup candidates for Congress and

Although further information might change things, at the
moment it looks like the following are very low probability
reasons for the shooter taking aim at Trum
* because Trump was too far right on some issue
* because Trump was too far left on some issue
* because Trump was OK ideologically but not forceful and
energetic enough to do what's required
* because a foreign agency just wanted to stoke domestic
discord in America -
but the tradecraft of a professional hit job appears to
be missing -
- a professional shooter would not have missed by a
few inches
- there was no backup man to take down the shooter,
or else the secret service got the shooter first
* because the shooter felt his opportunity to exercise
his sacred 2nd amendment rights might be slipping away
* because the shooter was severely mentally unbalanced -
but he was able to get a gun
What's far more likely is the same old same old - the
shooter is a loser who didn't want to die a forgotten
loser, so he sought the immortality of Booth and Oswald
by shooting a president.
https://apnews.com/article/trump-assassination-attempt-thomas-matthew-crooks-shooter-881581c46c07025898027143fc9132e5
Maybe Trump reminded him of some of his tormentors in
school. But he missed by a few inches and so was still
a loser, though one likely to be somewhat remembered.
After all we still remember Arthur Bremer - even though
he's out of jail now -
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arthur_Bremer
He didn't have any political complaints about Nixon, he
just wanted to shoot a president - and had to settle for
George Wallace.
Gaining immortality by killing a leader is a perfectly
rational individual decision - it works well! What's
obscenely sinful is the societal glorification of fame,
power, and wealth - winning isn't the main thing - it's the
only thing. How many politicians can claim innocence
of that sin?
Though great leaders have generated great ideas, the
hard work of making the world a better place is mostly
accomplished by ordinary people content to make a better
life for themselves and their families. Scripture says
swords into plowshares ...
every man under his vine and under his fig tree
do justly, and love mercy, and walk humbly with thy God
blessed are the meek: for they shall inherit the earth
https://www.washingtonpost.com/elections/2024/07/13/trump-shooting-rally-witness-account/
At least it's another opportunity for Trump to raise money
for his lawyers.
