Not only had there already been a failed assassination attempt, but the next lead to the capture and arrest of the would-be assassin.
Assuming that we will be regaled with a story of a "lone" weirdo, acting out of some misguided mental aberration. And I expect to be 'informed' by authoritative "spokespersons" about how he acted entirely "alone."
Talking heads will focus on the weapon, as if THAT were the larger issue here. Political zealots will decry Trump as they offer platitudes while displaying empathy for the 'mentally ill" and the victimization of the citizens due to the existence of guns in society. They will lead us to infer that "It's Trump's own fault for being so [fill in the blank.]"

Perhaps there will be something that 'gives' in the narrative... a narrative that will be well-crafted, although many of you may have already heard the partisan lament of "Aw... he missed," as we heard last time.
We're in trouble people, and we will be until this veil is lifted.
I wonder if it's not just his political opponents... I wonder if it isn't those closer to him as well (those who declare themselves 'allies.')
Or maybe I'm just a paranoid conspiracy theorist... which would mean I must be wrong... right?
