The Left Has Been Trying to Come Up With Wild Conspiracy Theories About the Trump Shooting, but They Are Failing Badly

Ever since the moment that Donald Trump was shot during a rally in Butler, Pennsylvania, the left has been pushing wild conspiracy theories all over the Internet.  Unfortunately for the left, their conspiracy theories are so ridiculous that most rational people immediately see right through them.  Yes, there are legitimate questions that need to be asked about what really happened at that rally, and I have been writing about many of those questions.  But to suggest that the assassination attempt was staged or that Trump was never hit by a bullet is just nuts.

As you will see below, the stuff that the left has been coming up with is straight out of crazy town.

It has been less than a week since Trump was shot, and already “false assassination narratives” have been viewed more than 100 million times on X, and many of those false narratives are being classified as “Blue Anon” conspiracy theories…

So-called ‘BlueAnon’ conspiracy theories — levelled by Left-­wingers — have clearly been thick on the ground this time, compounding the confusion spread by similarly paranoid or just ­trouble-making Trumpites.­

According to research group Institute for Strategic Dialogue, references to false assassination narratives amassed more than 100 million views on X in just 24 hours.

So what are some of the most common “Blue Anon” conspiracy theories that the left has been pushing?

Democrats Have A BlueAnon Conspiracy Problem That Dwarfs QAnon

A third of Biden supporters believe the idea that Saturday’s assassination attempt on former President Trump was staged and not intended to kill him is credible, according to a Morning Consult poll.

33 percent of polled Biden supporters indicated they were open to believing the troubling conspiracy theory, a higher number than the overall contingent polled. Only 20 percent of total people polled said they found the conspiracy credible.

The majority of voters, 62 percent, found the notion to be unsubstantiated, according to Morning Consult.

The concerning conspiracy theory has earned credibility from mainstream left wing voices like MSNBC’s Joy Reid.

“What is the actual injury to Donald Trump’s ear that’s under that bandage? Shouldn’t we know that by now? It’s weird,” Reid speculated in a Twitter video she posted to her 1.9 million Twitter followers.

“We still don’t know for sure whether Donald Trump was hit by a bullet, whether he was hit by glass fragments, whether he was hit by shrapnel, we don’t have those details,” Reid posited.

MSNBC Pushes “Eargate” Conspiracy Theory

Broadcasting in front of a large LED screen, trying to appear as if they were at the RNC Thursday night, MSNBC talking heads, specifically former Republican National Committee Chair turned leftist mouthpiece Michael Steele, suggested that there is some sort of cover up going on with Trump’s ear, and that he might not have even been shot with a bullet.

Leftists have become the conspiracy theorists. They’re currently engaged in two strands of this as regards the attempted assassination of Trump. The totally batshit crazy strand claims that the entire thing was faked by Trump and he had a blood pack. All for the photo op.

But the more ‘moderate’ theory, if you can say that, is that Trump wasn’t grazed by a bullet but by shards of glass from the teleprompter.

TIME Changes Front Cover Image Of Trump After Complaints That Iconic Image Is “Free PR”

Time magazine has changed its August cover from the now iconic image of Donald Trump raising his fist after surviving the assassination attempt after leftists complained that the image was helping his popularity.

In place of the image is now a monochrome picture of the evacuated rally site with a US flag in colour and the words “What Unites Us.”

What?

One of those images will go down in history and be used forever. The other simply won’t.

Time had even already written an explanation of why the image of Trump was so special:

One of those photographs, taken by Associated Press photojournalist Evan Vucci, was chosen to appear on the cover of TIME. The historical significance, the clear composition, the undeniable tension, all appearing in a singular image of an event that stunned the world.

Major News Outlet Urges Media to Bury Iconic Trump Photo Due to “Free PR” Concerns

A major news outlet’s photo editor criticized the widespread publishing of a dramatic photo depicting former President Donald Trump just moments after an assassination attempt, calling it unintentional “free PR” for Trump, and calling for it to not be shown.

The editor, whose identity remains confidential, emphasized the potential danger in glorifying such an image, according to an Axios analysis of media trends.

The photo shows Trump right after a bullet narrowly missed him at a rally in Pennsylvania. Captured by Associated Press photographer Evan Vucci, the image went viral, showing Trump, bloodied but unbowed, raising a fist to his supporters as he was hurried off stage, flanked by the Secret Service, with the American flag in the background.

Despite its acclaim as a symbol of defiance and resilience, the photo editor and a photographer from the same outlet have advised against its frequent use in the media, warning that it could inadvertently serve to enhance Trump’s public image positively.

Trump himself commented on the photo’s impact in an interview with the New York Post, proudly noting the iconic status of the image and the unusual circumstance of surviving such an ordeal, saying, “A lot of people say it’s the most iconic photo they’ve ever seen. They’re right and I didn’t die. Usually, you have to die to have an iconic picture.”

The call for censorship of the dramatic image raises several concerns, particularly regarding the principles of press freedom and public interest. Firstly, the idea of withholding the image from public view under the pretext of preventing “free PR” for Trump challenges the fundamental role of the media in providing a comprehensive and unfiltered view of significant events.

MSNBC star Joy Reid pumps more conspiracy theories about Trump assassination attempt: ‘That seems really unusual… it’s weird’

MSNBC’s Joy Reid took to X to share another round of conspiracies about the attempted assassination of Donald Trump – including that he may not have even been shot at all. 

The liberal anchor, 55, listed a number of things she finds ‘weird’ about the shocking episode in Butler, Pennsylvania, and appeared to imply that it was a staged event. 

‘We still don’t know for sure whether Donald Trump was hit by a bullet,’ she began. ‘We know almost nothing.’ 

Although Reid appeared to float some questions that officials have already answered, her remarks come amid mounting pressure on the Secret Service to explain the disastrous security slip that allowed the shooting to occur. 

Reid shared her speculation to social media shortly after she raised eyebrows in a broadcast from the Republican National Convention, as news broke that President Biden tested positive for Covid. 

She compared Biden recovering from the virus in ‘a couple of days’ to Trump standing up and pumping his fist seconds after being shot, feeling they ‘convey the exactly the same thing.’ 

After also branding the assassination attempt a ‘photo op’ in the broadcast, Reid took a similar tune in her X clip as she appeared to speculate that Trump’s Secret Service agents paused to allow Trump to ‘pose’ for an iconic picture. 

‘We don’t know why, for nine full seconds, Donald Trump was allowed to stand back up during an active shooting,’ Reid said.

Former Classmate Of Failed Assassin Confirms He Was Trump Hater, Says Friend Group Threatened To Shoot Up School

In a shocking interview with Fox News Digital, a former classmate of deceased Trump rally shooter Thomas Crooks described the failed assassin as holding anti-Donald Trump political views.

The ex-schoolmate, Vincent Taormina, explained Crooks was passionate about politics and didn’t like any of the presidential options in the 2016 race.

Taormina said, “So, I brought up the fact that I’m Hispanic and I’m for Trump and he [Crooks] said, ‘Well, you’re Hispanic so shouldn’t you hate Trump?’ And, I was like, ‘No, he’s a great president.’ And, he called me stupid or insinuated I was stupid.”

The shooter’s former classmate went on to describe Crooks as a “know-it-all” when it came to politics, explaining, “He would just say it in a tone that was like I’m better than you in a type of way.”

Unhinged Leftists Claim Trump Assassination Staged!

From Hollywood actors to Democrat politicians, the far-left is becoming increasingly demented in the aftermath of Saturday’s attempted assassination of Donald Trump.

Actor John Cusack claimed to “hate conspiracy theories” before stating there’s “zero chance” Secret Service didn’t cover the roof the shooter climbed onto.

He also suggested the Secret Service wouldn’t have stopped “for a photo op” after Trump was shot in the ear.

“I hate conspiracy theories because they avoid the open conspiracies we see with our eyes – for rabbit hole nonsense – that said – It’s unthinkable that the secret service doesn’t cover the ONE ROOF staring at the stage – zero chance . Also, no secret service action in history lets the candidate stop for a photo op – they cover the body and move it off site about as fast and completely as possible to imagine – see Regan assassination attempt. Makes zero sense.”

“Star Wars” actor Mark Hammill posted an image of Trump wearing a bandage over his ear at Monday’s Republican National Convention, writing, “1st APPEARANCE of ludicrously oversized ear bandage, apparently not needed prior to tonight.”

The comment suggests Trump is faking his injury and the laughing emoji certainly makes light of the assassination attempt.

Liberals have full-blown meltdown after shooter misses Donald Trump at rally: ‘We were a centimeter away!’

After the attempted assassination of Donald Trump, screaming liberals had full-blown meltdowns over the shooter narrowly missing the 45th US president.

At a Trump rally in Butler, Pennsylvania on Saturday evening 20-year-old registered Republican and Biden donor, Thomas Matthew Crooks, opened fire on the presidential candidate. 

A bullet struck Trump in the ear as Secret Service agents circled around to shield him. Corey Comperatore, a 50-year-old retired fire chief for Buffalo Township, was killed. Two other men were left in critical condition. 

Secret Service agents could be heard shouting ‘the shooter is down’ in the ensuing chaos and the gunman was later confirmed dead.

But warped liberals shared their disappointment in Crook’s aim, insinuating that they wished Trump had been fatally shot.

‘We were a second away, we were a centimeter away from half of the problem being gone and you missed,’ Celeste, who goes by cele2t3, screamed in a TikTok video. 

Driving in a car, Celeste shared her initial reaction to hearing the sudden news. 

‘I just found out about this sh**, it just happened, I haven’t even had a second to process.

She screams at the top of her lungs: ‘You’re telling me somebody finally had the ba**s to bring a “pew pew” and it missed?!’

Celeste continues to complain that the shooter was just a ‘centimeter’ away from fatally injuring Trump. 

‘There was a white man attached to that trigger- I know it!

‘We were a centimeter away, Ughhhhhh,’ she screams as the video, which has since been deleted, ends.

Far-left Seattle journalists appear to cheer on Trump assassination attempt

Two reporters for a far-left Seattle outlet are under fire after seeming to celebrate the assassination attempt of former President Donald Trump.

Staff writer at The Stranger Ashley Nerbovig, who covers “policing, incarceration and courts” for the far-left outlet posted on X, “Make America aim again,” in reaction to the news that the former president had survived the shooting at a rally in Pennsylvania on Sunday. Nervobig deleted the post, but screenshots went viral. She then deleted her account.

Fellow Stranger writer Hannah Krieg criticized Seattle’s Democratic mayor for praising the Secret Service and wishing the best for the former president.

Following the news of the failed assassination, Seattle Mayor Bruce Harrel posted on X, “This act of political violence is disturbing and unacceptable in our country. Thank you to the Secret Service and all the first responders who quickly secured the scene. Our thoughts are with the former president and all the people who attended today’s rally.”

Krieg shared the post and wrote, “Mayor Bruce Harrel swiftly comes to the defense of Trump, a failed insurrectionist touted by mainstream Democrats as an existential threat to Democracy.” She deleted the post and then locked her account after the blowback.
