Are you joking?

Aside from the sympathy this will generate, he managed to put his fist in the air, yell "fight!", and generally look as badass as he could for the cameras.

If an attempted coup didn’t change people’s minds I don’t think this will.

I don't understand. What are you saying? If an attempted coup didn't make Trump more popular, why would an assassination attempt make Trump more popular? Is that your argument?

I’m saying voters are locked in. He barely lost support when he tried to overthrow the government so he’s barely going to get support when someone tries to assassinate him.
