The Terror Is Evident

     In the wake of the second assassination attempt on Donald Trump, noted philanthropist and stateswoman Hillary Rodham Clinton deposeth and sayeth:

     “The press is still not able to cover Trump the way that they should,” Clinton told MSNBC’s Rachel Maddow. “They careen from one outrage to the next … I don’t understand why it’s so difficult for the press to have a consistent narrative about how dangerous Trump is. You know, the late great journalist Harry Evans, one time said that journalists should, you know, really try to achieve objectivity, and by that, he said, I mean they should cover the object.”
     “Well, the object in this case is Donald Trump. His demagoguery, his danger to our country and the world. And stick with it.”
     […]
     “We can’t go back and give this very dangerous man another chance to do harm to our country and the world,” she added.

     Do you smell desperation? Ace thinks it’s about the Epstein files. Trump, once returned to the Oval Office, might just release them. Whose names will be tarred as willing serial child molesters? Perhaps a Clinton or two?

     Well, we must wait and see. In any case it’s plain that there will be no cessation of the inflammatory rhetoric from the Democrats. They can’t risk another Trump presidency.

     In response to this earlier piece, commenter Butch wrote:

     My greatest fear is that the next try will be attempted by someone with knowledge and skill. So far its been amateur hour. At some point I fear they will send in a professional.

     That’s a legitimate fear, but remember: to maintain deniability, the assassin must look like an amateur. He cannot have a background in black or paramilitary operations, or any ties to any portion of the government. Such persons are few and don’t come cheap. Moreover, in the main they value their own lives quite a lot and would hesitate to risk the likely consequences of an assassination attempt. That improves the odds – in Trump’s favor.
