Dude, Saturday was so crazy.
00:01
Like, how did you hear about the whole Trump thing?
00:03
I was in the pool and like,
00:06
you know, minding my business just getting some catch and some
00:08
raises and my best friend gets her phone and she's like,
00:15
hey, Trump got shot.
00:16
I'm like, what she was,
00:17
but he's ok. I'm like,
00:18
oh damn. Did he have that Michel?
00:21
You're like, what?
00:22
That's crazy. I had like a high noon that I snuck
00:26
in because you couldn't have stuff in the pool.
00:30
No. Yeah, dude,
00:31
it's, it was definitely a historic day to say the least
00:34
So what we do actually know is that former president Trump
00:37
survived? What seems like an assassination attempt and was shot by
00:39
20 year old Thomas.
00:40
Crooks. Crooks had no criminal record graduated in 2022 and was
00:45
registered as a Republican.
00:46
And the FBI is still looking into his motive.
00:48
He fired eight rounds with a rifle 200 yards from the roof
00:52
of a building before getting killed by secret service.
00:55
Damn. Like, how could they not have seen him though
00:57
I know it's crazy.
00:59
And sadly, Corey comparator,
01:01
a father and a firefighter was killed by the shooter and two
01:04
other attendants were also shot but are in stable condition.
01:07
That's so awful. But like that photo of like Trump dude
01:12
they're already making T shirts.
01:14
I'm not surprised like they was like,
01:17
he got shot. I heard him yelling out for his shoes
01:20
and he wanted to get that fist in there and then they
01:22
carried him. I don't know,
01:24
they just said more crazy to the mix,
01:26
you know, 50 Cent,
01:27
right? So he's kind of mixed up in this whole thing
01:30
So, you know his song,
01:31
many men about, you know,
01:33
being a survivor from being assassinated.
01:37
It's a classic. So that song is going super viral with
01:40
this whole thing. And apparently 50 even had a concert and
01:44
he comes up on stage and guess who's behind him?
01:50
He's like moon moon and I did see that meme it was
01:54
all over social media and,
01:57
but honestly, I love 50.
02:00
I'm glad he's catching out.
02:03
It's like why not that Spotify show going to be nice dude
02:07
But damn, this whole situation is crazy.
02:10
Like I just feel like this race got a whole lot nastier
02:13
and I mean, I hope things cool down but no,
02:16
yeah, it's definitely leveled it up because again,
02:18
like you said, it's been a lot of back and forth
02:20
you know, it's been a shouting match.
02:22
But this is now actually physically,
02:25
people getting hurt. So it's a whole another level of this
02:28
So I don't know.
02:29
I got to hope that everything kind of simmers down.
02:31
Everyone stays safe and you know what?
02:33
It's crazy because I thought maybe one of these wouldn't make it
02:35
to election day, but not because of this,
02:37
but because of old age,
02:39
it's like, dude,
02:41
this is just, oh my God,
02:43
no one expected this.
02:45
Yeah, no one did also.
02:47
Like, why do we got two old men running?
02:52
That's for another day.
