Reno, Nevada: Donald Trump was rushed off stage by Secret Service agents during a campaign speech in Nevada after someone in the crowd yelled "gun", though no weapon was found on a man apprehended by security personnel. Several media outlets reported the man, who claims to have been physically attacked in the melee, had only been holding an anti-Trump sign.

'The media is lying about the incident. What really happened, from people who were there:

'A protester started causing a disturbance. Trump said "we have a Hillary Clinton supporter up here, how much did you get paid? $1500? Trump told security to take him out. People made space to remove him, and then started shouting and waving and pointing frantically that the guy had a gun. It was many people doing this, not just one. The crowd was already suspicious of him because he looked nuts, and nailed him the instant the gun appeared and yelled "GUN!" He never managed to get it pointed at Trump or even above waist level because he got nailed by the crowd so fast. At the exact same time, with instant response, the secret service body guarded Trump and got him off stage.

'Now the media is ignoring the fact that there was a gun, and the fact that many are saying he had an empty side holster and a bullet proof vest, and that the gun got kicked away to someone who ran out the door. Instead the media is focusing only on how security stomped the **** out of the guy. Ignore what the media is saying, clearly the media is lying.

'HERE'S THE KICKER, AND IT IS A GOOD ONE: Within five minutes of the incident, with the man detained (he had a handler, who accompanied him all the way out, this was a definite CIA patsy job) Anyway, within FIVE MINUTES Trump continued the rally. The media initially covered it (including the gun, as you can see to the left here) and is now entirely silent on the topic (an hour later). CNN QUOTE: "We can't jump to conclusions. Just because he had a gun it does not mean anything.'

I feel like if I click on the link to see the picture of the (non-existent) gun and/or the CNN quote, I'm kinda gettin' rick rolled.
 
I looked at a lot of links, and all I could find to support your "CIA wants Trump dead" conspiracy theory is that no gun was found. And the **cough** reddit link **cough** you posted doesn't show any proof either. Just a bunch of nuts making claims that there was a gun, as well as other weird stuff, like some Dutch guy who was assassinated by some Marxist, and the government let the Marxist go free. I won't accuse the people in that reddit link of being brainwashed. The reason is because nobody has any eye droppers.

The CIA doesn't provide services for presidential candidates. There was no gun. If you are going to quote something provide a link. I read a lot of stuff on reddit and the first thing I learned is that I can't believe everything I read on reddit.

Apparently, a yoyo couldn't get a sign from a protester that said "Republcians against trump', so he yelled 'Gun'.

If the CIA wanted Trump dead, he would be dead.

That's one reason why I see a Trump victory as not necessarily a bad thing. It would completely destroy the GOP. They will either have to eat a **** sandwich or leave the party.

Couldn't happen to a more deserving bunch.

Clearly, somebody's lying, and it ain't the media.

One of the reasons I'm more likely to vote for him than at any point in previous months.

Actually I think if Hillary wins this election, the trump faction will splinter off from the GOP because they believe that the establishment stabbed their candidate in the back

He won't destroy anything. They will fall in line and you'll see the older GOP members suddenly making fun of minorities and the handicapped in order to win votes. If Trump moves into the white house the GOP are guaranteed conservative justices and massive tax cuts for the wealthy. Yea, I bet they will really be at each other's throats.

It certainly gives me a consolation prize if he should win...which I seriously doubt he will manage to do.

Well...at the very least it will show how stupid the uneducated white males with no money to invest were to vote for him. And, the fact that they are stupid seems to be something they refuse to admit. So, a nose-rub in the pile of **** called Donald Trump may be in order.

I doubt anyone who votes for him will regret it or learn a lesson from it if he loses. I imagine the good that can come from it will be both Dems and Reps are gonna be looking at the working class demographics a lot harder because of this near upset.

And, that they should do. We really have to figure out how to get more people to adapt to the new economy. It's weird seeing what we have now.

The money is flowing to the well to do capitalists, who drive the economy with their investments in capital and offshore labor. Be that capital investment in robots for domestic production or building semi-automatic assembly factories in Thailand where labor is cheap, it isn't translating into high paying jobs for former coal miners, assembly line workers or other semi-skilled labor.

The other well to do class are the professionals. The engineers, doctors, lawyers, insurance admins, teachers, etc. who all benefit from cheap goods on top of the reasonably high-pay for the in-demand services they provide.

The last group doing fairly well are the trades. Electricians, plumbers, carpenters, various I/T guys who all benefit from the demand for their skills. They too, I am sure, enjoy the cheap goods resulting from automation and the importing of boatloads of consumer crap from China and Mexico.

Who loses? People with little skill, no education and lack the personalities which can make money from nothing, like those who can sell cars, insurance, houses, etc.
