Trump Pushes Incredibly Dangerous MAGA Conspiracy Targeting Kamala Harris
There is no bottom for this man.
Have you noticed the transition that Trump has been trying to make? He needs to go from his steady stream of attacks on Joe Biden into hammering away at his new presumed opponent, Kamala Harris.
So as a bridge, he’s gone from social media and rally statements specifically about Joe to always mentioning Harris in his attacks every time. It’s his way of making her “guilty by extension” of all the things he’s accused Joe of.
Pretty ironic, for a guy who spent the entire Biden administration only mentioning how little Kamala was involved in anything, when he did bother to attack her.
But attack her he must, since it’s the only way Republicans know how to operate.

Now he’s back on Truth Social, his pet Twitter-like platform, blaming “Biden/Harris” for the shooting in Pennsylvania nearly two weeks ago. His message to his followers made no pretense:
“The Biden/Harris administration did not properly protect me, and I was forced to take a bullet for Democracy. IT WAS MY GREAT HONOR TO DO SO!”

That was his message this morning, and it echoes the conspiracy theory among the MAGA crowd that the Biden administration was somehow responsible for the attempt on his life, if it was indeed such a thing.
The contradictions in a theory like that are too myriad to spiral into, but at the very least, you have to start with the fact that if Biden really wanted Trump dead, he might not have hired a registered Republican with terrible aim to get the job done. That’s just poor planning if you’re going to line up a sniper for a big job, as any movie will tell you.
But the point is, his base hasn’t forgotten. The theory hasn’t gone anywhere. The only reason he brings it up at this point is to make sure and get Kamala’s name in the conversation as well, as he pivots toward fighting her in the election instead of Joe.
And he’s not without company in trying to tie Biden and therefore Harris to the shooting. Georgia Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene tweeted “They tried to assassinate Donald Trump. Joe Biden is rumored to have had a medical event … and is no where to be seen. Now they have propped up Kamala Harris without any Democrat voters casting a single vote. What is going on??? Who is doing this??? Who is running the country???”
They tried to assassinate Donald Trump.
Joe Biden is rumored to have had a medical event in LV Nevada after being diagnosed with Covid then dropped out of race and is no where to be seen.
Now they have propped up Kamala Harris without any Democrat voters casting a single vote.…

Thankfully, we can generally count on anyone who’s not already in the MAGA fold to not buy into this nonsense.
