Guys, if the assassination was successful, he would have become a martyr. That would be worse. This is still a bad thing. People forget that when Reagan was shot his approval rating went up. I would bet that this just won Trump the election.

Nah, then the losers lose their golden calf and spend the rest of the time in fighting for control of MAGA. What's the real downside? 2028 gets lost? That's going to happen anyways.
