Now, mRNA shot efficacy, longevity, side effects, those are key elements in hundreds of millions of people's lives. Where and how a pandemic originated -- those are crucial questions going forward that affect hundreds of millions of people. Censoring narratives that conflict with an administration's narratives -- those are strong-arm tactics that affect everyone on the planet.

What also galls me is that if this had been another candidate, the assassination attempt would have led to heroic profiling, some kid gloves treatment, and consistent respect. That's not at all what we received from the media.

The general US population has no connection, no resonance, with people in the military or law enforcement who have had people next to them killed while being wounded themselves. The entire assassination attempt was blown off in a matter of a week or so. No coverage. No constant reminders.
Why are you so obsessed with the media not going on and on about it? What else was there to add to the story? Did we need a time-lapse video of his ear healing? You're pissed because MSM didn't become Trump's propagandist?

Seriously, what new became known about the situation that was not covered? It is "news".

Man I looked for pictures of the scar and it is really hard to see anything.

Did you wear a bandage on your ear like his devoted followers?

When asked what it means to him he said - "I do this to bring awareness to what happened and to show my appreciation of the sacrifice President Trump. He is a true American hero."
