    That’s not gonna put a stop to the staged assassination attempts.

    No. How about those Epstein-Trump Files?

    So the White House Correspondents Dinner, which is an even where the press invites the President, is supposed to be held on the White House grounds because going out in public is "too dangerous?" Do I have that right? That instead of being the press' event that the President is invited to, it will instead be a Presidential event that the press are invited to? Do I have that right, that we've literally inverted how anything functions for the sake of making this fat fucking loser happy.

    Indeed! Plus, building that giant corruption-riddled eyesore will surely be cheaper than just having adequate security at the next White House Correspondents Dinner. They surely saved enough to pay for it by not having metal detectors at the hotel this time.

    Trump didn't go to the dinner over multiple years purely because a lot of reporters use it to poke fun (in good fun) at the President, and occasionally actually lobby for something too. The man cannot take being made fun of, at all. Making it a Presidential event makes sure that he can exclude anybody that's not the most sycophantic.

    Your mistake is you're using logic. MAGA folks don't do logic. Instead of "we do X because of Y so this means Z" it's simply "X. Y. Z".

    Someone tried to kill Trump. Going out in public is dangerous. Trump needs a Ballroom.

    That's it. Connecting the dots requires a functioning brain. For MAGA the dots just bounce around freely. Each one an independent thought.

    If the 5000 security people at every event did their jobs, there wouldn't be any problems.

    Also he manages to golf everywhere just fine

    The security people at the event did do their jobs. Someone attempted to commit a violent act, was immediately identified as a threat, and was arrested with no deaths and one minor injury. The attacker didn't get anywhere close to his intended targets because security stopped him so quickly. If anything, this shows how completely unnecessary his stupid armored ballroom would be because the event security was 100% capable of stopping an attacker.

    Facts! Funny how Lemmy overlooks all of what you posted. In between the ones saying that it didn't really happen. The extremism on here is getting to be too much. I swear if just one word was changed in most people comments, I'd think they were Republicans.

    What the fuck is going on with Lemmy lately?! There is enough stupid shit to make fun of and point out about this admin, people don't need to invent shit. The security people did their jobs. And by judging the comments here lately, they did their very thankless jobs.

    So this event has gone on more than 100 years without incident and gunmen seem to follow you wherever you go. Sounds like a you problem.

    Is the event were they roast the president? The very thing Trump fucking hates above anything else is people making fun of him? Why he skip it every time?

    How funny the one time he attends one there is an assassination attempt. If not staged the the universe or this fucking simulation we live in is fucked up.

    He’s fine. The current system worked as planned. If anything, this shows how unnecessary his big beautiful ball hole is.

    Besides, I’m more interested in protecting my own family than ensuring this pedophile rapist feels cozier while stoking outrage everywhere he goes:

    "The world is big and scary. Everybody hates me and makes fun of me. I don't want to leave my houses. Make them come here. I don't wanna go anywhere ever again. I need a diappy change."

    “Security scare.” Oh, for fucks sake.

    I demand he stop appearing in public. Or talking at all for that matter. That would be safest for everyone.

    Can't help but think of the bandage he was wearing on his ear lately, as if to remind us he survived an assassination attempt. Then boom.

    You gotta clean up your house before we start building new things. For all you know, there's already a perfectly useable bunker laying around here somewhere. Let's start by getting the Epstein files out of here. Just put them on the curb, someone will take them for you

    The only viable solution is to build a small concrete bunker with a single putting trainer inside that doubles as a toilet. Lock him inside and never let him out.

    Bulldoze it on day one of a new administration. Turn it into a historical museum of Jan 6th.

    So... He got told no. Cried about it and staged an assassination attempt just to get his own way?

    JFC. This is the stupidest timeline. The fact that they are even pushing this "solution" in response to this incident, is proof that they're all just idiots trying to convince other idiots to do stupid shit.

    Idiocracy is real.
