If they are trying to scare the guy, it's not workin. Trump assures everyone his "resolve is only stronger" now
Stephen Kruiser
Just a little over a month ago, I wrote about something that was on a lot of our minds: the lunatics weren't done trying to kill Donald Trump.
Here's a line from that "The Deep State Is Still Targeting Trump Ahead of the Election" Briefing:
Donald Trump is still a target because the Left wants him to be a target.
There has been nothing to indicate that the alleged incompetence that allowed a disturbed young man to take a shot at Trump won't happen again.

That was written a month after the first attempt and, honestly, I'm surprised it took another month for someone to get the chance for a second go at it.
The public has been force-fed the fiction that the Kamala Harris version of the 2024 Democrats is all about "joy." It is, of course, a shiny object distraction from the fact that the woman is a shallow dullard who isn't fit to be in charge of snacks at a book club meeting, let alone president of this once-great Republic.
In reality, the Democrats are sinister, bitter people who have a well-documented track record of wishing illness and death upon people who don't agree with them politically.
The response by Democrats on social media to this latest assassination attempt was, predictably, awful. They're awful people, after all.
And they're responsible for it – especially Kamala Harris.
The incessant, hyperbole-filled lying about Trump that Harris repeats every day in her campaign speeches inspire the unhinged garbage humans who fantasize about killing Trump. It might be irresponsible of me to say that it's intentional, but my reserves of the benefit of the doubt for the Dems are at an all-time low.
Democrats want their low-info base to be at a constant fever pitch when it comes to Trump. They have lied to make him History's Greatest Monster, and their incurious base gobbles up the prevarication and processes it as white-hot hate that never wanes.
That much I know is intentional.

The biggest problem after the first assassination attempt was that no satisfactory explanation was given of how the gunman was able to get into a good sniper position with the greatest of ease. That often happens when the federal government is investigating its own failures.
We may be able to get some better answers after yesterday's attempt – because Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis has stepped in. This is something Paula Bolyard shared in a post she wrote yesterday, entitled, "DeSantis Takes Matters Into His Own Hands on Assassination Attempt."
That doesn't mean that the people whom DeSantis is investigating will cooperate, but it's a start. DeSantis is one of the few adults in the room in American politics and a leader who has no patience for things that too many Republicans don't seem to have the energy fight.
And Catherine Salgado covered Trump's response to the incident in her "Trump Responds to Second Assassination Attempt" piece here.
If they are trying to scare the guy, it's not having the desired effect. Trump assures everyone that his "resolve is only stronger" now. He does seem to draw energy from every heinous thing the Left tries to do to him.
He doesn't let the Dems' relentless assaults on him ever dampen his spirit.
There is "joy" in this election; it's just not on the side that the Democrats say it's on.
They get everything wrong.
