So a guy rushes the stage where Trump's speaking....

...and we're supposed to believe it was a spontaneous show of affection?

Whatever you want to call it (and I don't call it that), it was either a major Secret Service breakdown or a completely staged political event. And it wasn't a major Secret Service breakdown.

or are you talking about something that was made into a gif last year? If it happened yesterday, it was a repeat and probably will be trotted out when necessary.

Either way, I agree, totally staged, like all his "props".

And yet on the campaign trail some guy was wrongly accused of brandishing a gun and Trump was hustled off stage by his SS detail.

Whole thing makes me want to

entourage, they have to be entertained. This is all shock doctrine stuff, we need to keep our focus on what the Congress is up to because that's what's going to trash the country, and they are in a rush to get as much damage done as they can before they are stopped by us revolting. Notice they are starting by cutting us off from our privacy and transportation first? Next it will be the internet and our cell phones, which are being "swept" regularly.

At this point it's a matter of throwing out a grappling hook in hopes it will catch on something... we've already stepped off the edge of the slippery slope and are gaining momentum in the slide every day.

Trump handles it like it's a reality TV show.

I hope his show gets cancelled due to abysmally low ratings.
