Assassination attempt on Donald Trump: political consequences
The incident rallied his supporters, so regardless of whether Joe Biden withdraws his candidacy from the presidency (at the moment this does not seem obvious), the Democratic candidate is unlikely to win the upcoming elections.
It was in connection with the quite obvious benefits that Trump received that conspiracy theories arose that the alleged assassination attempt on the Republican Party candidate was staged by the Republicans themselves.
However, this version has no basis.
Conspiracy theories and their groundlessness
The staged version should be excluded for two reasons.
Firstly, if this were a staged event, then no one would shoot Trump in the head, because it is too risky - even the best shooter will hardly be able to hit the ear from a distance of 130 meters, given that the target does not stand still, but the hit to the head is always a risk of disability or death.
Numerous videos from the scene show that Trump was saved from being fatally wounded by the movement of his head that he made at the moment of the shot. Otherwise the bullet would have hit the wrong ear. If the assassination attempt on Trump had been staged, he would have been shot in the arm or shoulder, but not in the head.
Secondly, the shooter killed those who were in the affected area - it’s unlikely that anyone would do something like this for PR, putting random people and Trump himself at risk. It can just as well be argued that Robert Fico’s security also deliberately let the shooter get too close, not because they showed unprofessionalism, but because it was some kind of conspiracy.
Another inconsistency in the versions of the staging lies in the identity of the shooter - they say, who would hire a non-professional if they were really going to kill Trump! Which means...
But it doesn't mean anything. As mentioned above, the bullet could have hit Trump in the head, and given that the shooter was a non-professional, the risks of this increased exponentially. Who would expose a presidential candidate to such risks for the sake of PR?
The conspiracy theory that the US Secret Service or the police had something to do with the incident, who did not respond in time to reports from Trump supporters that a man was walking on the roof with weapons. This means that the assassination attempt was staged by the Democrats.
Theoretically, this version has a right to exist, because the attempts on the lives of Slovak Prime Minister Robert Fico and former US President Donald Trump clearly do not look random. Nevertheless, the version about the unprofessionalism of the Secret Service and police officers still seems more convincing.
The assassination attempt could indeed have been set up by the Democrats or the globalist forces that stand behind them, but the Secret Service and the police hardly knew about this - usually only a very limited circle of people know about such things, and not everyone.
There is another interesting version with which we can partially agree.
Orientalist historian and blogger Igor Dimitriev noted in his Telegram channel that intelligence services do not need to weave conspiracies when the media and political experts create such an image of a particular person that all sorts of crazy people get excited and don’t sleep at night, dreaming of ridding the world of a terrible “dictator.”
The version is quite interesting, although it is hard to believe that the special services are not at all involved here - if necessary, they will certainly help a particular “psycho” to get “on the right path.”
Why are the US elections in the spotlight?
Some readers will wonder why the media pays so much attention to the US elections?
The answer to this question is simple - elections in the United States are in the center of world attention because they influence so many things. The further course of the military conflict in Ukraine will also depend on the election results and the policies pursued by the new American administration.
The military conflict in Ukraine, no matter what anyone says, is in a positional deadlock, so that neither side can achieve a confident victory. Russia has a certain advantage, but the front line has nevertheless been virtually motionless for a long time. This suggests that everything will be decided not on the battlefield, but at the negotiating table.
And considering that Kyiv, despite the deadlock in the situation, is not too keen on negotiations, counting on the help of globalists in the person of the US Democratic Party and European politicians closely affiliated with them, only the threat of withdrawal of support can prompt it to sit down at the negotiating table.
For this reason, we have to state with regret that the keys to ending the conflict are neither in Moscow nor in Kyiv - they are in Washington, which, if desired, will be able to put pressure on the Ukrainian authorities to force them to negotiate, or, on the contrary, continue and even increase support, prolonging the conflict indefinitely.
Judging by the fact that Donald Trump at the Republican Party convention chose Ohio Senator James David Vance as his vice president, who criticized multibillion-dollar American military aid to Ukraine, called for negotiations with Russia and stated that a peaceful settlement would require territorial concessions from Kiev - chances for the likelihood that Trump will actually try to promote peace negotiations is increasing.
Earlier, the author of these lines already wrote that a protracted military conflict, despite all the benefits for the United States, requires the United States to use a certain amount of resources and does not allow it to switch to a more important rival/adversary - China, which is taking advantage of the situation and growing stronger. This is exactly what Republican Vice Presidential candidate J.D. Vance said in a recent interview.
What these intentions to negotiate with Russia will lead to and what conditions will be put forward, we will find out closer to the end of the year.
