The best reply Trump could have made in that response re: rally attendees was that his rally attendees didn’t even leave WHILE BULLETS WERE FLYING overhead at his Butler, PA rally.
I’m still stunned that him being shot in the head wasn’t HUGE topic at the debate. He should have DEMANDED that a shit ton of people in the Secret Service be fired over that - at a minimum - if not prosecuted for criminal level negligence.
Yes, it’s as if everyone in the MSM conspired to memory hole the entire event. Of course, not “as if” - they certainly did.
But I’m still shocked that GEOTUS himself didn’t work being shot into the debate, as I saw plenty of opportunities for him to have done so. I can’t second guess his decisions though - he knows what’s best to say or not say. It just surprised me that he chose not to bring it up during the entire debate.
Yes, I remember that part, but it was more of a drive-by comment. And saying that their “threat to democracy” rhetoric is to blame for him getting shot was almost like giving them a hall pass on the whole thing.
What I was really hoping for was Trump calling out all the repeated denials of additional Secret Service personnel and how lots of his supposed security detail there on 7/13 weren’t even Secret Service trained personnel at all. And why hasn’t a single person been fired over that USSS catastrophic failure? And why is the Secret Service refusing to release their records?
I was hoping that he would have really called attention to the whole thing, even going so far as to say something like, “The only reason you’re the Democrat nominee is because they missed on July 13th.”
But that was just my own little fantasy, I suppose. :-)
The media keeps quiet because they don't want people to remember.
Trump keeps quiet because he knows people DO remember, and he doesn't need to play the martyr or sympathy card. He knows they know. He doesn't need to remind them.

They don't want to draw attention to that, did you not notice that it completely fell out of the news cycle within about 2 weeks?

He did say during the whole "threat to democracy" thing
"I took a bullet because you guys kept saying I'm a threat to democracy"
