The Trump shooting aroused a lot of patriotic emotions in me and many others.

Still, Trump ain't some savior. There is no one in American politics coming to save you and me.

I don't care what Trump says at the Bitcoin conference next week, I still abide by the principle, "don't trust, verify."

Anticipate a rug pull from Trump and his cronies, and be pleasantly surprised if it doesn't end up coming to fruition.

Just my 2 sats.

Can you explain the patriotic emotions aroused in you?

Because I didn’t have the same reaction. Mine was that now in America even a former president can be a victim of gun violence. Something I’m unfortunately very numb to so I just went on with my day.

Yeah it was a mix of emotions. Among them, fear that the gloves are coming off and more violence is on it's way.

I would say the patriotic emotions were just a primal thing and coming from the incredible images that came out of the aftermath of the assassination attempt.

I still love the USA, even though my logical brain is telling me it is going south in this country, fast.

I understand. Kinda like being in an abusive relationship with someone we love.
