Details regarding the gunshot heard at the White House reporters’ meeting and the suspect are not yet fully confirmed, but statements from the prosecutor investigating the case have begun to appear in the media. Even as UK media outlets, often exhibiting an inferiority complex towards the US, interpret the gunshots as an assassination attempt against Trump, Trump himself referred to the suspect as the “Sick Man.”
It’s difficult to understand why UK media outlets like the BBC are linking everything to an assassination attempt against Trump, when dozens of questions remain unanswered. The prosecutor stated that “the suspect’s target may not have been Trump, but someone from the Trump administration.” In other words, the gunshots were not directly aimed at Trump.
There are still unanswered questions. Was this suspect the one who fired the gun? Where is the alleged weapon? How many shots were fired? Was it the suspect who fired, or could it have been one of the police officers present? How did the attacker enter the room? How did they bring the weapon inside?
As we said, there are multiple questions.
While the prosecutor stated that the suspect did not directly target Trump, and even Trump himself described it as a “sick man’s attack,” Trump and the media, with their inferiority complex, stubbornly continue to call it an assassination attempt.
The prosecutor did not answer any of the above questions and only stated that the suspect targeted the Trump administration. Perhaps there isn’t even a suspect who fired the gun. We are simply watching the media report their speculations as news.
The prosecutor might soon say, and it would be no surprise: “There is no suspect. One of the police officers fired the gun. He didn’t do it intentionally; he unknowingly pulled the trigger. The person we arrested as a suspect was one of the waiters in the room.”
