After another assassination attempt on Donald Trump occurred on Sunday, while he was playing a round of golf, some of Alaska’s political leaders took to social media to issue statements about the matter.
Sen. Dan Sullivan was the first to comment: “We’re very grateful that @realDonaldTrump & his family are safe after another assassination attempt. We’re also grateful that our law enforcement officers responded bravely & rapidly to this despicable threat against President Trump’s life.”
Two hours later, Sen. Lisa Murkowski wrote: “I am very relieved that former President Trump is unharmed following what appears to be yet another assassination attempt and commend the Secret Service for their quick action that saved lives. We must come together as a nation and condemn political violence in any form.”
Rep. Mary Peltola, two hours later, had nearly the exact response as Murkowski: “I’m relieved President Trump, his family, and his team are safe and were unharmed from a second assassination attempt. We must all come together to condemn political violence in any and every form and focus on the issues that unite us as Americans.”
Republican congressional candidate Nick Begich wrote this statement: “Nothing will stop the effort to restore the American Dream, to ensure the American way of life, to put the people of America First. Today we saw yet another attempted assassination of President Trump, but I am 100% certain when I say, nothing will slow this man down. May God continue to protect President Trump and bless our nation.”
Gov. Mike Dunleavy issued no comment. issued a comment Monday: “First Lady Rose and I offer President Trump and his entire family our thoughts and prayers after this second attempt on the President’s life. We wish to thank the Secret Service and others tasked with protecting President Trump for their swift actions, including the quick apprehension of the suspect, with no reported injuries. This unprecedented second attempt ended without injuries, and an individual has been arrested. We will allow the investigation to proceed and will await the findings before making any additional statements.”
The chairman of the Anchorage Assembly did comment on X/Twitter, by republishing a comment from other persons that he evidently agrees with.
Assembly Chair Chris Constant’s comments:
The Alaska Republican Party’s statement: “Thank God President Trump is safe. Violence has absolutely no place in our country’s politics – it should be condemned by everyone regardless of their political beliefs and the terrible & irresponsible rhetoric against our candidate that continues to incite it must stop. The Alaska Republican Party stands with President Trump. May God bless President Trump, may God bless America and may God bless Alaska.”
The Alaska Democratic Party’s statement: No statement issued.
Meanwhile, the Florida Republican congressional delegation is asking why the U.S. Secret Service again failed to secure the perimeter around former President Donald Trump, allowing another shooter to come within several hundred yards of the president armed with an AK-47 style rifle.
The Florida delegation is also calling out Democrats like Chris Constant for suggesting that Trump brought it on himself and for blaming Republicans when the shooter was a Democrat and Democrats have for years said Trump “is a threat to democracy.” Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis opened a state investigation into the situation that led to a lapse in security, indicating he has lost faith in the federal government’s ability to investigate these repeated failures to protect President Trump.
What’s this nonsense about going to WW3 for the CIA backed Nazis in Ukraine? Huh? That’s stupid.
Wrong article, Ghost Rider.
What a farce. The alleged assassin has significant ties to the illegal regime in Ukraine. In fact, he spent several months there running an NGO seeking to recruit mercenaries to fight against the Russians. Reliable sources have stated that he even met with some members of Congress & the State Department. The NY Times & others have written about his exploits in the region. Trump has often stated that he would end the war (and money laundering operation) in Ukraine on day one of his presidency. Coincidence? I think not. Many of the politicians issuing comments expressing shock and dismay about the assassination attempt speak with forked tongues as they are also fervent cheerleaders for the ongoing debacle in Ukraine.
Крым наш (Crimea is ours), comrade! (Sarcasm)
How did this Democrat sob know that Trump was playing golf that day? And what time he would be on the golf course? Where did this Democrat sob purchase or was given his assault rifle? He was a felon. What level of the Deep State did this Democrat sob work for and get indoctrinated? What media network did this Democrat sob watch? Too many questions.
Thomas, you answered your own questions:
The Deep State.
If you hang around *any* Trump golf course he is within motorcade distance of for 12 hours, chances are pretty good that the coup-attempting former president will turn up.
As compared to the current couped PINO (President In Name Only) who would not know a golf course were he on it.
JenL;
Terrific, but you didn’t go far enough to get through bonehead Sebastian. Biden no longer has any cognizant abilities whatsoever. He has personal attendants for everything he does, from toilet training to switching TV channels, to guiding him around the WH and showing him where to take the next nap. If there was a nuclear alert, Joe Biden would simply be ushered into bed and told goodnight. Americans have no clue who is in charge and that’s the way Deep State Democrats like it.
Chris Constant seems to think reality is fantasy and fantasy is reality.
You can’t “accuse a group of people of eating our pets”, but firing gun shots at someone is ok?
It’s justified because “he started it”?
5 year olds use that as a defense.
Put on your big boy pants, Chris.
NotAnymore, what is really sick about the Haiti invasion of Springfield Ohio is that it took a statement about eating cats in order for the media to acknowledge this travesty.
Honestly, imagine if 100,000 thousand invaders were dumped on Anchorage, think that would be newsworthy?
This invasion IS turning the U.S. into a turd world S- Hole.
Kamala will continue this invasion, Trump will stop it. Do the math.
“he started it” is greatly debatable anyway!
Clearly Mr. Kinzinger and Mr. Constant seem to have been deliberate amnesia with their assertion that politics has gone to pot at the moment DJT entered the fray.
They ignore Iran-Contra, Hillary&Bill’s Travle-gate, Bimbo eruption and Monika, Anita Hill, Bush the national guard and CBS Dan Rather, oh and let us not forget Al Gore and his hanging chads, years of maligning George for being the devil incarnate, Barack maligning police officers, Louise Lerner, Benghazi, pallets of cash to Iran, the Biden botched Afghanistan withdrawal, Hunter’s laptop …yeah yeah politics were so much better then…..
The larger story is that Trump was playing golf and it was “unscheduled.” Hannity was called at the last second to participate but was too busy. There seems to be someone close to Trump who may be offering up logistical information on him. Pair that with the “nothing to see here” (or secure) assassination attempt in Pennsylvania and all coincidence goes out the window. And what does NBC do? They tell Trump to “tone down the rhetoric.” Who are they to call ANYONE Nazis? It’s not our side that’s engaged in the violence.
I’m kinda doubting the sincerity of Murkowski and Peltola’s comment (s) given they are avowed enemies and their comments look to be identical as if they were both struggling for the words to mask their real thoughts. I’m sure they were made out of political expedience given the season rather than from sincere indignation over the assassination attempt.
Chris Constant cannot get the streets fixed for his constituents, he is rude to everyone including his constituents, and he refuses to listen to what his constituents need from City Hall.
Mark Steyn.s column today “Incuriouser and Incouriouser” gives excellent overview of the captured suspect. The guy is supposed to be a North Carolina construction worker who happens to live in Hawaii, yet has these amazing connections to Ukraine and the DC swamp. 🫤🫤Not sure links are permitted, just go to Steyn’s website to find it.
Did I misread? Did Constant reference God?
Who is voting for Chris Constant? It is stunning he has been re-elected. The same for most of the Anchorage assembly. They are shameful.
There is no doubt that President Trump has the biggest target on his back that any other person the world. Yet the secret service does not provide the same level of protection as Biden who most people have no idea he is still the president. It’s probably due to not wanting Trump to appear too important politically with a large detail. Of course, the left is braying that Trump ‘deserves’ what he gets due to what they call his ‘violent’ rhetoric. Calling Trump a ‘nazi’ or a ‘existential threat to democracy’, a ‘dictator’ and so forth is NOT ‘violent’ rhetoric according to the left’s standards, of course. It’s a bet that Senator Murkowski had to bite her tongue when she wrote her statement condemning the assassination attempt on Trump. Congresswoman Peltola almost copied Murkowski’s statement verbatim and signed it herself. This is another example that Mary Peltola has never had an original thought or idea of her own. It always comes from her handlers. Come on, Alaskans! We can do far better than Mary Peltola. Vote for Nick Begich!
The accusations brought agains Trump are completely ridiculous including the crazy court cases led by insane prosecutors. The ultra left have lost their minds. Democrats. The capital D stands for the party of Death. These demented people in media , politics and movie stars would absolutely love to see trump killed and his family harmed. It’s curious why exactly they have this HATE in their hearts?? Trumps first term. Only Afghanistan war which he didn’t start, economy doing great what’s the problem With that.?? Yet lunatics with entire fishing tackle boxes hanging from their faces protesting him. If any harm comes to trump or his family I would not want to be associated with that. All hell is going to break loose. God bless trump and his family and straight to hell with the left. You are evil. Eternity is a long time people our walk on this earth is short.
I was invited to a social gathering by a group of Anchorage libs (no one of consequence) that turned out being the day of the first attempt. When I queried her on what she thought about the events of the afternoon, the mother of the host said, “Too bad he missed.”
I told her she didn’t really mean it; that’s a step too far. She didn’t say anything. These people truly believe it, they truly mean it, they are truly bent on bringing the ruler of this world to some short term sense of glory. What ever that means for Satanists.
Keep your eyes on Jesus; all the rest is blowing in the wind.
Listen to Evan Sayet (maybe Sayat) tell the story of how he became a 9/11 conservative. He gave a great speech about how the liberal minds works at the Heritage Foundation. Even if you only see the first 10-15 minutes it’s worth it.
.
Similar story to yours. When leftists say the hate Trump, they mean it
Let’s review the facts.
1. Dan Bongino, a former Secret Service agent turned news moderator, known for his frank honesty, recently testified in congress how pathetically disorganized and misled the Secret Service currently is.
2. The Secret Service ramped up security on the Trump detail after the first assassination attempt. As a result, all of Trump’s travel and location plans are kept strictly confidential and undisclosed to the media or public.
3. In addition to his confidential and undisclosed movements, Trump made an unplanned change of them to go golfing in West Palm Beach. Only a handful of people would know about this last minute change to a confidential schedule.
4. Common sense question: have all the cel-phones of the handful of people been carefully examined to seek for evidence of who may have tipped off the attempted assassin.
5. It has the appearance of an inside operation. Anyone refusing to see the blindingly obvious fact pattern above is tacitly approving of the endangerment of our candidate.
Most of Trumps former staff have endorsed Harris. Of course someone inside leaked his schedule. Rex said Trump was “a fu.. moron!” Now George Will is endorsing Harris. When do you realize you are supporting the worst ticket in the history of the country? Shake it off!
Oh, Trump’s former staff endorsed Harris. I guess that means incompetency on the part of the USSS is perfectly OK?
Define “most”.
BTW have you seen the picture of the entire Walz family endorsing Trump and wearing “Walz for Trump 2024” shirts!
Why is it acceptable to you that someone leaked that schedule and more importantly how would YOU know??
Former staff has to find a new job in swamp land DC. The best way to do that is to unprofessionally dis their old boss….take it for what it is worth.
Sebastian, Rex, the former CEO of EXXON called Trump a moron? George F. Will the Neo- Con Cuckservative is voting Harris?
Oh my!
That’s quite a compelling argument you make above.
I’ll reconsider voting Trump, but first What can you tell me about the U.S. Government funding NGO’s that are flooding Cities and small towns with huge populations of foreign invaders? What about the massive dept that was created to fund these operations? Didn’t this debt cause historic Inflation? Isn’t Harris and Blinkin and Nuland and the rest of the cretins at the CIA trying to set the world on fire and start WWIII?
Help me work through the above Sebastion. In the mean time I’m predisposed to voting for the Fat Orange man. Rude as he maybe, because despite his mean childish tweets the world was alot better and safer under his watch.
Their were 45 US soldier combat deaths in Afghanistan while Trump was president. So how were we safer? As far as todays possible rate cut – Donald Trump opposes cutting interest rates for the American people. He wants interests rates to remain high, the economy to slow and people to lose their jobs. He thinks this will help him get elected and stay out of jail. That’s also why he blocked the bipartisan border bill. Trumps biggest mistake was agreeing to an early debate with Biden. If it would have happened now there would not be time for a Biden replacement. Same for Haley replacing Trump today! #Shake It Off
The would be assassin said, “Democracy is on the ballot,” echoing Harris, Biden, all Democrats and mainstream media. The Democrat political class and voters laughed at Trump after the 1st & 2nd attempt. They blame the victim. They wish death on the victim. And they gaslight the nation by calling the shooters Republicans.
Every attempt on Trump’s life is the fault of the Democrats and the media. Every assault on Trump supporters and Republicans is the fault of Democrats and the media. These people are unhinged and they are intentionally trying to lead this nation into a civil war. I am sick and tired of all of them.
Don’t forget about the vitiroil when Trump was President. Kick them out of your restaurant, get in their faces make them uncomfortable, etc….
All condoned by the Dems and the leftist press.
Chris Constant was named appropriately.
He never wavers.
He constantly rants showing off his ignorance.
as always, comments more interesting than the story. lots of quacks on both sides of the aisle out in this big old world with chips on their shoulders. it will be interesting to hear the suspect’s motive. plenty of conspiracy theory musings to go about. i was disappointed no commentor has invoked JFK conspiracy theory.
