I'd do the same. If I were Walz and someone took a crack at Harris, I'd immediately bunker down until I heard more. That's a very normal reaction to have and you lot are trying to make jokes about how abnormal it is.
Or am I weird and the correct human response is to hit play on I Will Survive, drop pants, and helicopter through the course?
Did you miss the part where donny was shouting fight?
I agree that he is obviously lying, and that is what people should be calling out. Instead people are saying that his made up reaction is irrational. If he actually believed Trump was dead(which he didn't) that would have been a perfectly rational choice. Also assuming he didn't have a security detail, which I'm pretty sure he does.
You're not wrong, you're just not trained the way he claims he was. The problem is he decided his house was a safe place, and any assailant would obviously use the front door. This is also after he supposedly didn't even wait to see that Trump was very much alive, literally seconds later.
Nobody is at his house, so it's not safe. That's actually the first alternate a bad guy would target if they didn't know about the mini golf. The door in any room or building is called a "fatal funnel" by the military. Standing there would be the absolute last thing anyone with any basic military training would do.
This guy either got so scared he abandoned his Marine training or he's lying his ass off and thinks we're too stupid to notice.
I don't like the sound of a fatal funnel. I guess that's how "Here's Johnny" moments happen.
Haha, kind of the other way though. I know you have to come through this tiny area. But I can hide wherever I want.
