The bullet that former president Donald Trump said grazed his right ear was one of dozens aimed at U.S. presidents, presidential candidates and other prominent elected officials over nearly 200 years.
But Saturday’s assassination attempt, while shocking, is unlikely to have significant political or economic reverberations given the makeup of the American democratic system and the fact that it didn’t involve an incumbent head of state, researchers say.

So, The Secret Service Knew This And Still Did A Lousy Job
U.S. intelligence received information in recent weeks indicating an Iran-backed plot to assassinate Donald Trump, which led to increased security around the former president. CNN reported that “there’s no indication that Thomas Matthew Crooks, the would-be assassin who attempted to kill the former president on Saturday, was connected to the plot, the sources said.”

What A Typical Republican Weenie Excuse
Despite calls for softer political rhetoric in the wake of Donald Trump’s attempted assassination over the weekend, Sen. Ron Johnson (R-WI) did not hold back when he spoke at the Republican National Convention in Milwaukee on Monday, slamming Democratic policies as a “clear and present danger” to America...Asked by PBS News host Amna Nawaz about why he had said Democratic policies are a “clear and present danger” to America, Johnson said: “That speech was written last week.” He added that “they literally loaded the wrong speech” into the teleprompter.
