Why now? To completely demoralize us right before the election so any replacement candidate has zero chance of winning.
What about to delay the election?
It's been said a lot: a head shot with an AR-15 at that range is just about impossible to screw up. Trump turning his head and only losing part of his ear is basically a miracle. There's also evidence that his security team knew the attack was coming.
If you're the Bad Guys(tm) and you know Trump is about to be killed with a damn near 100% certainty, what else can you leverage out of the event?
You could get on TV and talk about how "terribuh, absolutely terribuh" this "heinous" event was. You could call it a shocking and shattering point in American history. And you could say that we just aren't psychologically ready for something like a Presidential election, so we're going to just suspend those for 2024 and look into 2025 maybe if we're all in a better headspace.
With as much as these people project and how much they're talking about how the big worry is Trump will refuse to leave office and become a dictator, it's not hard to see where they were wanting it to go.
"terribuh, absolutely terribuh", as I read this, I heard it in Cartman's voice.
Hah. I was quoting Charles Barkley, though.
Looked more like Elmer Fudd to me.
