Paul Craig Roberts – paulcraigroberts.org July 17, 2024
Some say that it is too early to know what explains Trump’s near assassination. However, a good case can be made that we already know all we will ever know. The passage of time simply allows official narratives to be constructed, and they are used to muddy the waters.
I support the calls for an official investigation, but government investigations are always coverups. Think the Warren Commission Report, the 9/11 Commission Report, the NISH Report. If there is an investigation, nothing will come of it, and if by chance it does the presstitutes won’t report it.
We have all the information we need to form an opinion. Earlier I wrote that we have three choices of explanation for which there is evidence. But two of the explanations merge into one. The withholding by the foreign-born director of the Department of Homeland Security of adequate Secret Service resources from the Trump campaign can be merged into the incompetence explanation. So we have two choices, both supported by evidence or circumstantial evidence: Secret Service incompetence and a pose of incompetence to coverup an organized assassination.
The most certain fact we have is that despite the protective presence of the Secret Service and local police, Donald Trump was nearly killed, one person was killed, and two were seriously injured.
None of the shooting was prevented by the Secret Service and local police, who went into action only after Trump was down and presumably dead.
So what we have is the total failure of the Secret Service. What can explain such total failure? Some say the sacrifice of professional competence to diversity and inclusion. And there is evidence for this. The Biden regime is yet to make a single appointment based on merit and ability. All appointments have been made on a race, gender, and sexual preference basis. Secret Service professionals have complained of these non-professional appointments and pointed out that the competence of the agency has been compromised by “diversity, equity, and inclusion.”
The reason aside, whether incompetence or complicity, clearly the Secret Service director failed. She failed to protect Trump, and if it was an official assassination, she failed to eliminate the target. So, will she resign? Of course not. She will be promoted to some higher office exactly as all were who failed to prevent the 9/11 attack on the US.
Let’s look at some of the indications that incompetence is a cover for a plot to assassinate Trump. The first thing that struck me was the unprotected roof tops of the buildings. As a former Assistant Secretary of the Treasury from the days when the Secret Service reported to Treasury Assistant Secretaries, this struck me as inconceivable.
I also found it inconceivable that a person carrying a rifle could appear in a protected area and climb upon a building with a clear shot at an allegedly protected person and not be accosted.
Initially, we were told that the buildings had, somehow, escaped the protected zone. But later we learned, for what it is worth, that the building with the assassin on top was occupied by police or Secret Service forces. How is it possible that the assassin was not seen and apprehended?
We do know that the Secret Service was complicit in the assassination of President John F. Kennedy and Robert F. Kennedy, thus depriving America of an educated and aware leadership. https://www.paulcraigroberts.org/2024/07/17/the-cias-assassination-plots/
We do know from the civil case the Martin Luther King family won that the official account of Martin Luther King’s assassination is a cover up of what seems to have been a FBI operation.
So many books have been written by insiders documenting the CIA’s assassination of foreign leaders who took a different line from the line that Washington insisted on imposing that we have hard evidence that Washington uses brute force to enforce Washington’s agenda.
With the Disunited States–the blue and the red–more divided than the division caused by the North’s determination to impose a tariff regime at the expense of the South, Trump’s notion that he can achieve unity is a fantasy.
There is no possibility of unity. Good and evil cannot be unified.
Trump’s responsibility, assuming a second and a third assassination attempt does not succeed, is to root out the evil in Democrat hands, in liberal-left hands, in intellectual hands, that has turned the United States of America into a Sodom and Gomorrah Tower of Babel.
Trump cannot raise his fist and say “fight, fight, fight,” and then compromise with his and our enemies to unite Americans with evil.
The one thing that keeps me from being convinced that the attempted assassination was a deep state plot to rid themselves of Trump is the absence of a pre-prepared narrative to be repeated endlessly by the presstitutes. However, the official narrative might have been prepared to cover a successful assassination, not a failed one. Therefore, there is no ready narrative. It will be interesting to see what narrative the ruling elites construct.

So, just because the Nazi fake news narrative to be used after Trump’s death, is a sure sign, to, PCR, that it wasn’t a Nazi deep state assassination plot????
You know, maybe it’s his age, or maybe he’s just a Nazi shill.
If Trump had died, the fake news would have flip flopped into their ‘oh my God mode’, and said theis was ‘an attack on our (sham) democracy’, & Biden might say, ‘I am so devestated by this event, that I’m stepping down, so Amerika can have a fresh Nazi future.’
PCR fails to mention that Trump’s regular Nazi SS detail was allegedly ‘tired’, and was stood down for the C – team, yeh, just another coincidence.
I’m glad that Rixon allows us to view the latest ramblings of Paul Craig Roberts (PCR) because it just solidifies all the intelligent people’s thoughts, on this site, that PCR is 100% controlled opposition; pretty much like the majority of other contributors to The Truthseeker.
“The one thing that keeps me from being convinced that the attempted assassination was a deep state plot to rid themselves of Trump is the absence of a pre-prepared narrative to be repeated endlessly by the presstitutes.

If the Deep state wanted the Jew, Trump gone, he would be and very easily.
The fact that Paul “I love Israel” Craig Roberts actually contemplates that this could have been a real assassination attempt at what was comical pantomime, involving fat, female, Secret Service personnel, unable to holster their weapons, before falling to the ground, panicking and asking “what do we do now?” proves that PCR is not a credible source, whatsoever, for critical thinking.
It is blatantly obvious WHY this pantomime happened:
1. To make people vote, overwhelmingly for Trump in what I think will very probably be another clearly rigged election, to make Americans realise that it’s pointless voting, to bring about civil unrest, in order to generate more chaos (including wars abroad and in the US) while they rush ahead with another virus, their digital currency and social credit scoring system.
2. To further hammer home, into Americans, that its too easy for people to get hold of deadly weapons and they need to be banned, completely, allowing the government to initiate Bolshevik genocide Mk2 on the US population.
3. To show the rest of the world what a joke the USA has become and its time for a new world power like Communist Russia and/or China. And yes folks, if any of you think that Putin isn’t part of the game you’re clearly an idiot. All you have to do is read ‘The Perestroika Deception by Anatoliy Golitsyn, a former KGB officer and defector.
You have to either be shilling for the Jew or a complete idiot to think that this was actually an attempt at killing Trump. There are videos, on Telegram not only showing people behind Trump standing up filming everything on their phones, clearly proving their actors knowing it’s all fake as well as another, showing you, in slow motion, Trump’s right ear lobe forming a balloon bubble that bursts.
This pantomime, other than gun control was done to make people think that the Deep State is out to get Trump and to fool them into thinking Trump’s their man. Guaranteed, once elected he WILL take US troops into Israel because that’s precisely why they have Vance as his vice president who WILL do the job if Trump doesn’t.
Roberts doesn’t realize it was a hoax, so there is no ‘assassination attempt’. How convenient the ear that was reputedly shot is covered up with some sort of white bandage to conceal the scam..10 to 1 this Roberts guy is a Roman Catholic. A good question is, how many of these ‘white’ analysts/columnists on these alternative/conspiracy type sites like UNZ or TTS are Roman Catholics? I bet they all are.
It was a fiasco whichever side orchestrated it. In this video on ‘X’ one of the women Secret Service agents who was part of Trump’s detail that day is shown here several times failing to holster her pistol. Somebody calls her Melissa McCarthy and they may be actors. I don’t believe Trump was involved because he needs votes not bullets whizzing past his head, any one of which could have killed him. And he’d have looked very unnatural trying to keep his head as still as he could and not bobble it about as we do.

I see many Demonrats and Antifa people here commenting on our beloved President Trump. It’s all from deep seated hate and cowardice: less than one in a thousand men can get up like Trump did after being shot in the face and pumping his fist in the air shouting “fight!” The most badass move in history.
The man is William Wallace born again. “Freeeedom!” Wallace shouted. “Fight!” Trump did, and instantly became a legend. He is a savage, a true warrior, and a beast.
impostor ‘Damien’ posting trumptard garbage..for some reason Rixon allows cass sunstein agents to use another posters name

@ Time you Woke up
The entire thing is so very crazy as to how the shooter was able to set up so close. But lets see the videos and especially the one with the balloon bubble blood you are relying on to support your theory.
“There are videos, on Telegram not only showing people behind Trump standing up filming everything on their phones, clearly proving their actors knowing it’s all fake as well as another, showing you, in slow motion, Trump’s right ear lobe forming a balloon bubble that bursts.”
Most people got down pretty quick and the man who was killed happened to stand up with a bullet hitting his head. You would need a lot of paid actors to keep their mouths shut on this one. I am not saying there is no such video to support your views, but the event would have to be one which was not advertised to be staged as you suggest. So, if you think it is all fake then the onus is on you support your views with some hard evidence.
Yes. But although the name is the same YOU MAY JUST SHARE THE SAME NAME.
Sorry that is not getting deleted.
If I am going to delete I need hard evidence. There are many Damiens in this world.
Get real Rixon. I’m sure if someone starts posting as ‘Rixon’ you’d say the same thing: that the poster simply shares the same name as you & there are ‘many Rixons in the world’ & you need ‘hard evidence’. Nice try, but completely absurd.
I do thinketh incompetence sums up the western world. Soyboy takes out the trump now that’s a headline.
Yeah I’m going to have to agree with the original Damien on this one, this impostor ‘damien’ seems to be some sort of subversive zog agent, similar to that Mike Dung adl plant, intentionally causing disruption on the site. Also Rixon’s explanation appears biased and phony.
Somebody please post the url for the video of the ballooning bubble of blood and any other revealing videos not already all over the mainstream and alt news. Thanks!
@Rixon
notice these vermin and impostors don’t use the same names of the commies, putintards, bibletards on here…no just the message of the man they fear the most..
Oh God if the cost living attempt isn’t a assigned attempt to distinguis me what is.
