TODAY: We look at the newest and (rather dull) assassination attempt on Trump’s life—and switch gears immediately to focus on his far more interesting would-be assailant and the myriad of… passionate right wing responses to the latest re-hashed story beat in this election cycle.

We look at potential shooter Ryan Routh’s incredible online presence, filled with disillusionment over Donald Trump and Tulsi Gabbard and his ideas about saving Ukraine with Elon Musk rockets and a star-studded charity song called “We Are One.”

Are future assassination attempts going to get even more anticlimactic? Will disillusioned Trump fans keep trying to kill him? Are we seeing a rise in the militant swing voter?
