There’s a lot of armchair snipers all of a sudden who are saying they can hit a few inch group at 100 yards with their eyes closed.
Given lemmy’s demographic, I’m not sure how many of these people have actually held a rifle, let alone tried to shoot it at +100 yards while under a time crunch and stress.
Not saying what the kid did was right, but criticism of his marksmanship isn’t really fair.
They just feel teased by the botched shot is all, they’ll probably shut up about it once Trump inevitably manages to spectacularly blow any sympathy he might have gained over this, as he is often want to do.
Guy’s gonna hit the circuits like a lightning bolt about this, and inevitably he’s gonna say something that puts it right back into everyone’s head what exactly he’s proposing for his second term.
It’s absolutely wild to think about, it’s the first campaign in history where both candidates survive mostly on a strategy of talking as little as humanly possible and under as controlled circumstances as humanly possible.
The way to win is to actively avoid reminding everyone that the candidate you support is one of the candidates, because of just how much the media has poisoned the well that this very obvious outcome is some unforeseen portent of oncoming doom because gasp two first term presidents are seeking the second term.
Like what in fuck were people expecting was gonna happen, a divine intervention? Joe’s literally said that it’d take that much at minimum to convince him to hand the reins even to Kamala, nevermind how Donny would probably spit in the eye of god himself at the suggestion that anyone but him, even a magically created exact copy of him in a younger body, should take over the campaign.
But those armchair snipers aren’t actively trying to shoot the US president. I mean if I were to do it I would make sure I won’t get killed for nothing
Sickening indeed. How can you get that close and fuck up your one job…
Shooter forgot to allow for the cloud of bullshit-laden hot air emanating from the target.
It was still a distance shoot at that range, and apparently those are actually harder to hit than media marksmanship makes it seem
