The US elections under the shadow of the murderous attempt against Trump
The assassination attempt against former US president and current presidential candidate Donald Trump while he was addressing a crowd in Butler, Pennsylvania on Saturday July 13 has deeply shaken the US and is set to define everything until the November 5 election, which are the most crucial elections in the history of mankind and concern every person on the planet.
This assassination attempt, the first since that of former Republican President Ronald Reagan in 1981, marks yet another new chapter in the dark history of political violence in the US. After all, the history of the United States is marked by the assassination of four presidents during their term of office.
Specifically, President Abraham Lincoln was assassinated in 1865 in his gallery at Ford’s Theater in Washington by an actor, John Wilkes Booth. The second president to be assassinated was James Garfield, 20th President of the United States, who died after being attacked on July 2, 1881, at a Washington, D.C. train station by Charles Guiteau, a lawyer who was desperately looking for a job as a civil servant. William McKinley, 25th President of the United States, while receiving dignitaries at the Pan-American Exposition in Buffalo on September 6, 1901, was wounded by an anarchist who fired several bullets. He died a few days later from his injuries.
Finally, in more recent history, many remember November 22, 1963, when John Fitzgerald Kennedy, JFK, was assassinated in Dallas. That day, around 12:30 p.m., as the presidential limousine drove through the crowds that had gathered in the streets of Dallas, gunshots rang out. John Fitzgerald Kennedy immediately collapsed, with his wife Jackie at his side. The 35th American President was then pronounced dead at 1:00 PM at the hospital.
The attack therefore, is an event, which without a doubt is going to bring about changes in the political developments of the already turbulent pre-election period. A period that has already gone through forty waves after Joe Biden’s self-destructive appearance in the debate, which raised serious questions about his age, his intellectual clarity, but also about his ability to conduct a dynamic election campaign, and which ultimately led to his resignation from the candidacy for the upcoming presidential elections.
The targeting of the former president at a rally just days before the acceptance of the anointing by the Republican National Convention in Milwaukee which was carried out on July 15-18, is an attack on Democracy and the right of every American citizen to choose their leaders. The violence that infects and affects American political life is clearly antithetical to Democracy.
It was August 31, 2023 when the militant journalist and former Fox News host Tucker Carlson estimated that Donald Trump might be assassinated after impeachment campaigns, accusations and smears failed miserably to dent his popularity.
The ruthless 20-year-old perpetrator Thomas Matthew Crooks and ruthless because his shots killed at least one American citizen and seriously injured two others, one very seriously, was a member of the international far-left organization “ANTIFA” and an extreme supporter of Joe Biden and the Democrats. He had even donated $15 to a political action committee that raised money for Democratic politicians.
However, he had also registered after with the Republicans (or at least “appeared” a “convenient” registration) in order to be able to be at Trump’s speech and be able to get close enough to fire his killer shots.
The American Republic in recent years has suffered the most brutal interventions of the “deep state”, i.e. the military-industrial complex and the security and intelligence services. This period is the most dangerous in US history, because the “deep state” along with its political operatives and complicit media demonized the former president, not caring that they were dividing American society and cultivating the climate for the assassination attempt on Trump.
So, many American citizens became addicted to hate Trump to death, since every day the complicit media propagated with countless vulgarities that the former president was a “disgusting traitor”, a “Russian agent”, a “new Hitler”, or a “psychopathic tyrant”. The entangled media with the “deep state” which give no reason, are not controlled, but they have enormous powers to destroy the rights and liberties of the American people as defined by the Constitution.
And today we again see some complicit media, in order to avoid the possible ‘heroization’ of Trump, rushing to completely deconstruct the fact of the attempted political assassination, spreading with disinformation tactics rumors that the near-assassin had no political activity or extreme ideology, but simply he had psychological problems.
The specific former president, therefore, is considered an independent personality who is not influenced by the so-called “deep state” and is inspired by a patriotic political mentality. Donald Trump is pro-America, anti-world government, and pro-ending the war in Ukraine, the continuation of which poses a very serious risk of nuclear war and thus the total destruction of humanity. Trump is the second leader of the anti-woke agenda after Slovakia’s Prime Minister Robert Fico that they attempted to assassinate within two months, and while Trump is running dynamically for the presidency of the United States.
A woke agenda that wants to abolish religions, nations, the institution of the family, genders and traditional relationships and in general any traditional value that exists since the time when people began to consciously perceive themselves. A woke agenda that wants to create states that will be inhabited by mobs without national consciousness and identity, so populations that can be easily managed and controlled by the rulers of the planet.
The internationalist class that has imposed this woke agenda through the media, education and every national criminal and civil code considers as “red flags” those leaders who react vigorously and resist and has put them in its sights.
The assassination attempt on Donald Trump, then, could propel him to a landslide victory in the November election as his image as a fighter constantly under attack from his enemies will now be even more deeply entrenched in conjunction with a given wave of sympathy. The prospect of his victory, after all, was already established in everyone’s minds, but what may change now is its potential size.
In closing, I would like to emphasize that the American people will have to fight stubbornly and with great perseverance to free themselves from the federal “deep state”. “Fight!” was the phrase of a bloodied and battered at right ear Donald Trump seconds after his assassination attempt, simultaneously raising his fist in the air, encouraging the large crowd of his supporters and ultimately creating an iconic image that will go down in history.
