Reagan Assassination Attempt Flashback and Power Transitions
from Trump Assassination Theories & The Bowels Of Power | The Tim Dillon Show #402 · #402
4 min
Tim draws a historical parallel to Reagan's shooting and George H.W. Bush waiting on a plane to potentially become president, arguing these power transitions and cover-ups aren't new, then returns to Cheatle's blank-faced press briefings.
- The shooting is dark and troubling enough that people want to move on from it rather than explore deeper implications.
- Trump handled the convention well by mentioning the incident once but delivering a positive presidential speech instead of dwelling on it.
- Most people don't engage with questions about Thomas Matthew Crooks' potential government connections because they can't psychologically handle those implications.
- Biden stepping down and Harris stepping up was a brilliant way to move on from the assassination attempt.
- The plan was to use Biden as a Weekend at Bernie's puppet for four years, wheeling him in with a teleprompter for speeches.
- Power factions don't want a president who isn't part of the game; they prefer an actor who lets the corporate oligarchy pillage.
- Trump didn't really stop the system in his first term, and many of his friends are billionaires and industrialists.
- Every president faces the system when they get in; their success depends on willingness and ability to fight it, and how controlled they are.
