Still can say wait wait wait, make America great again
那你就有所不知了.

His shoes slipped during the commotion. As a politician vying for the next Presidency, he must not appear 狼狈. You can have blood on your face, that is a medal of valor. If you lose your shoes, you will look defeated.

Joe Biden is an empty shell, and it's debatable if the real Joe Biden is even alive.

It's that syndicate handling him, which stole the election in 2020.

Traders will initially rush into haven assets and reevaluate trades most linked to former President Donald Trump’s candidacy after he was shot at a rally, according to market watchers.

“Undoubtedly there’ll be some protectionist or haven flows in the Asia early morning,” said Nick Twidale, chief market analyst at ATFX Global Markets. “I’d suspect gold could test all time highs, we will see the yen getting bought and the dollar, and flows into Treasuries too

Sen. J.D. Vance (R-Ohio), a potential Trump running mate, said in a statement on social media that the shooting was “not just some isolated incident.”
“The central premise of the Biden campaign is that President Donald Trump is an authoritarian fascist who must be stopped at all costs,” Vance wrote. “That rhetoric led directly to President Trump’s attempted assassination.”

Sen. Tim Scott (R-S.C.), another Trump ally, shared a similar sentiment. “Let’s be clear: This was an assassination attempt aided and abetted by the radical Left and corporate media incessantly calling Trump a threat to democracy, fascists, or worse,” he wrote on social media.

Chris LaCivita, a top adviser to Trump’s campaign, posted on social media a sentiment similar to Vance’s, blaming the attack on efforts by Trump’s political enemies to disrupt his candidacy. “[W]ell of course they tried to keep him off the ballot, they tried to put him in jail and now you see this …” LaCivita wrote on X, the platform formerly known as Twitter, before later deleting the post.

LaCivita’s message pointed to words Biden had used earlier in the week when he told a group of donors about shifting his campaign to attack Trump’s policy record, including his record on abortion and Project 2025, a policy document drafted by some former Trump advisers. “So, we’re done talking about the debate, it’s time to put Trump in a bull’s eye,” Biden had told donors in the private call, which was reported publicly.
