A Great Big 'I Told You So'

Ya don't hafta be the Oracle of Delphi or Nostra-bleeping-damus to have seen this coming.

Did I call it, or did I call it? I'm not saying I actually predicted the events yesterday in Butler, PA, but let me repeat what I said Friday in an essay published by American Thinker (and, a bit later, here on Stu's Stack o' Stuff):

I’ll admit to being cynical to the point of paranoia when it comes to what I believe the Biden crime family and the Democrats are capable of. I wouldn’t put anything past them, including the “termination with extreme prejudice” of Donald Trump.

And anyone who doesn’t believe them capable of eliminating Trump in such fashion probably also believes that Jeffrey Epstein hanged himself or that it was purely coincidental that Vince Foster, Jim McDougal, Seth Rich (and others who “knew too much” about the Clintons) also met untimely ends.

And, sure enough, an assassination attempt was made. One certainly doesn't have to be the Oracle of Delphi or Nostra-bleeping-damus to have seen this coming, or at least to not really be surprised.

It shows the depth of desperation among those who see Donald Trump as the biggest impediment to their "fundamental transformation of America." And by "those," I mean the utterly reprehensible Marxist/Stalinist traitors now doing business as the Democrat Party.

It may be only by the Grace of God that the attempt was not successful. We can also give thanks that the Secret Service is, apparently, not as corrupt as the FBI (and other elements of our government that Americans used to believe were above reproach) have shown themselves to be. [UPDATE: Oops! It’s now starting to look as if the Secret Service may have been, if not complicit, seriously negligent. Will we ever really know? Will we ever really know the complete truth about JFK’s assassination?]

But wait, there's more! Listen up, Boys and Girls: I'm going to make another prediction. As with the aforementioned event, I may not be the only one to foresee the possibility, even probability, of what I’m about to describe, but I'm going to state it here, for the record:

I predict that, as this event is discussed over the coming days, we will be treated to the repugnant claim that, because Trump was only grazed by the would-be assassin's bullet, that constitutes proof that Trump staged the assassination attempt! We’ll be told it was a cynical ploy, and just another cheap fake.

We’ll be hearing this from the same people who have been calling Trump a liar, a tyrant, the embodiment of Hitler and an existential threat to Democracy; the very same people who made up and perpetuated the lies about Russian collusion and who lie to this day about what Trump said at Charlottesville; the same people who, had (God forbid!) that bullet found its intended mark, would be popping champagne corks and partying ecstatically for days (they would no doubt be dancing in the streets and passing out candy the way some people did on 9/11, when some people did something).

Mark my words, it will surprise me not one bit to hear that premise posited by the likes of, to name a few, the harridans of The View and the harpies of “The Squad” (and so many others I'd like to name, but won't). It'll be interesting to watch the propagandists trot out this ludicrous premise and try to gain some traction with it, and to see how many useful idiots gleefully swallow and then regurgitate it. [UPDATE: That "spin" is already trending on social media.]

And I'll make yet another prediction, of a scenario that I believe will be enacted spontaneously all around the country, and one I’d very much like to see, even if it won't be widely reported by the Mainstream Press: someone with a deep-seated, incurable case of Trump Derangement Syndrome will crack wise about how "Trump had it coming," "Trump deserved it," or "'Too bad the shooter didn't have better aim," and a few seconds later the smug POS uttering those remarks will be choking on a mouthful of bloody Chiclets, or worse! And they will have had it coming!
