Quick google shows he joined Twitter March 2009 so this is a fake tweet, just in case anyone is wondering

Not to mention he had already run for president once by that time

Like a fungus that just won't go away

If it's fake, then that still matches how consent works to people like Doe 174

TFW a socialist with a gun tries to assinate you.

Edit: it was a registered Republican, but this post was a joke so adding /s

Doubt it. It’s being reported that the shooter was a registered Republican

Just a concerned citizen exercising his 2nd amendment right trying to prevent a tyrannical government. Isn’t that exactly what the 2nd amendment is for?

That wasn't an assassination attempt. Everything about that seems like a fake to boost trumps popularity.

While I agree there are a couple weird points, its nowhere near the level of suggesting it wasn't an assassination attempt. We can wait for more information before suggesting things like this.
