Idle thoughts

Trump did 96 rallies in 2024. The only one that was aired live by CNN was the rally in Butler, PA. You know…the one where he was shot.

Interesting. It’s almost as if they knew something we didn’t.

I think you may have this one reversed.

More likely the assassin chose the occasion for that reason.

I wouldn't give you two cents for all your fancy rules if, behind them, they didn't have a little bit of plain, ordinary, everyday kindness - yeah, and a little looking out for the other fella, too.

I don’t think so. I rather suspect that Thomas Matthew Crooks chose this rally because he lived so close to Butler, PA (about 35 minutes) determined his selection of shooting location.

To be fair, CNN says they televised it live because they were anticipating Trump would announce his VP pick. Makes sense.

Total coincidence.

Also, your premise is wrong. CNN provided live coverage of multiple Trump rallies that year. For instance, it broadcasted rallies live on June 18, June 22, June 28, and July 9.

That claim seems to stem from misinformation or disinformation on Twitter (sorry, “X”) not surprisingly. Musk’s own Grok LLM recently determined that Musk himself is the largest spreader of misinformation:

i would suggest getting off that platform or take heavy dose of skepticism when reading crap from X.
