The writers were getting desperate, what with a season people seemed to genuinely not like anymore. The “Trump Gets Shot” arc was a last gasp for attention. But then they fired that old goofy guy playing the president and replaced him with his younger, smoother comic relief character. It was something of a reversal, sure, but it got us back into the old 2008 “Hope and Change” arc, which was a much bigger hit among younger viewers.
And its not like they just retired the middle aged bumbling white guy, either. That new Tim Walz character is pure charm and really works against the smarmy wall street guy they’ve brought in as this year’s new villain.
@UnderpantsWeevil @Persona3Reload The new psycho owner of Birdsite Cafe where everyone hung out was too much of a downer and drove viewership away. You gotta give the fans something positive
The us has spent how many years becoming numb to shootings? so it shouldn’t come as much of a surprise people got over this fast
The amazing thing is not people forgetting about Trump’s shaving nick, it’s them forgetting about the dude who was actually killed.
“Forgetting”. They do not want to start pulling that thread and I suspect that it is because of instructions from above. No one wants any focus on it. Republicans because of why would a republican wanna kill Trump and general gun control? Not an area where they want speculation to start running. As for the Democrats, investigation into what the fuck the secret service was doing will land on them being the sitting government. So under the carpet it goes. Lone maniac and nothing to see. Move on please.
I think they meant the retired firefighter who was standing behind Trump. No offence, but It’s pretty telling that you also didn’t think of him, as neither did I at first reading.
They learned it from the best: Who shot J.R.?
Well they set the standard that gun violence is a normal part of every day life 🤷♂️
yeah whatever, pew pew, murica
