If it was real, why would Trump duck under the lectern as if it
would offer any protection? A real sniper could be shooting from
behind, in which case the lectern would not even conceal Trump,
and even if for the sake of argument the sniper was shooting
from afore, a sufficiently powerful round could pierce through
the lectern. Someone genuinely fearful for their life would not
stay in the same immediate spot where a real sniper was
initially aiming, but would dash off the stage (and out of the
sniper's scope field) altogether (thus at least requiring the
sniper to re-aim).
Trump remained on the stage because he knew he was in no real
danger (because he staged it) and because he was setting up to
do his theatrical fist-pump to his MAGA crowd (which was what he
staged it for):

Opinion: How Trump Set Deadly Election Trap for Himself
--- Quote ---
> It’s barely been 48 hours since Joe Biden dropped out of the
race for the White House, but one thing is clear: Kamala Harris
can win.
>
> The Democratic Party, from voters to leaders to delegates to
donors, have lined-up behind Vice President Harris. There’s no
guarantee yet that she will actually be the candidate. But in 24
hours she raised $81 million and secured enough delegates to win
the party’s nomination—not a bad day’s work.
>
> There is, of course, some worried hand-wringing. Most of the
worries boil down to “the last time we ran a woman, she lost.”
This is true—but it also treats one woman as a stand-in for all
women, and derives a sweeping lesson from a single race.
>
> It seems worth mentioning that a white man has lost in every
single other election in American history, including two times
to a Black man. Trump lost the popular vote to Clinton in 2016,
and again to Joe Biden in 2020. We have not extrapolated out
from that long history of losses that white men can’t win. We
shouldn’t do the same based on the one election in which a woman
was a major party’s nominee.
> Harris also offers several unique strengths, particularly vis
a vis Donald Trump. There is first—and most obviously—the fact
that Trump has spent years attacking Biden for his age and
cognitive abilities, suggesting that an old man shouldn’t be
running the country. That was always a risky move for a
candidate who is only three years Biden’s junior, and who will
himself be in his 80s, and the oldest president ever, if he wins
and serves a full term. But now it looks like an especially
boneheaded strategy.
>
> The GOP was remarkably successful at making Biden’s age an
issue, and after the disastrous Trump/Biden debate earlier this
summer, the entire country has spent the last month talking
about how old is too old to sit in the Oval Office, and
expressing concerns about the prospect of a very old man leading
the nation. Well, Trump is now that very old man. He is a man
who is not particularly articulate, and who often fumbles his
words and mixes up people, places, and things. Voters have been
primed—by him—to be very concerned about age and cognitive
function. It was only in contrast to the subdued Biden that he
seemed vigorous. Now he is almost surely facing off against a
candidate who is two decades younger, appears significantly
healthier, and comes across as much more intellectually
adept—advantages that will hold true whether the ultimate
candidate is Harris or some other, possibly even younger
Democrat.
>
> Harris is also a former prosecutor, a fact that hurt her with
the left in the 2020 Democratic primary when protests against
police violence were raging and criminal justice reform was a
bipartisan issue, but which looks very different in 2024. The
Trump campaign has made this election partly about crime and
safety. If the match-up is Harris versus Trump, then it’s also
the prosecutor versus the convicted felon. And the convicted
felon oversaw a big jump in the murder rate while he was in
office, while the former prosecutor saw murders go down during
her time as vice president.
>
> As a prosecutor, Harris’ record is unlikely to please the
authoritarian right or the prison-abolitionist left, and she
certainly made some missteps, but it’s the kind of reasonably
tough-on-crime agenda that average voters might find largely
unobjectionable: Opposed to the death penalty but cracking down
on gun and violent crimes; diverting first-time non-violent
offenders away from prison and into job training and educational
programs; telling parents of serially truant students that they
could face jail time if they didn’t get their kids in school. As
a senator, she worked on bipartisan criminal justice reform
initiatives.
>
> As Harris put it during a campaign stop in Delaware on Monday,
“I took on perpetrators of all kinds. Predators who abused
women. Fraudsters who ripped off consumers. Cheaters who broke
the rules for their own gain. So, hear me when I say I know
Donald Trump’s type.” And, she said, “I will proudly put my
record against his.”
>
> To detractors and skeptics, Harris’s biggest vulnerability is
her identity: she’s a woman, and a multi-racial one at that.
America has had nearly two and a half centuries of unbroken male
rule, and that rule has also been entirely white for every
single one of those years except eight—and the lone Black man to
ever hold the office was indisputably a unique political talent.
Hillary Clinton was one of the most qualified candidates to ever
run for the presidency, and she ran against a thoroughly
unqualified boor of a man and lost anyway—in part because Trump
attracted legions of voters motivated by sexism and thrilled
with his misogyny.
>
> But the peculiarities of an election eight years ago are not
identical to the ones at play now. To many voters (including
this one), a Clinton win felt inevitable, not urgent. This time
around, no one is under the impression that Trump can’t win. And
because the history-making quality of the potential first female
president doesn’t feel at all preordained but rather like a
difficult but in-reach goal, we very well may see many more
people willing to work hard and turn out to make it happen...

My sister already said that her and her friends would all be
voting Harris if she is on the ticket.
As the above article stated, Harris the prosecutor versus Trump
the 34 time convicted felon. It will be interesting to see how
all the "Law and Order" right-wingers vote won't it? They could
potentially destroy any remaining credibility any of them had
left with one vote. As Jesus said, "Woe unto you, scribes and
Pharisees, hypocrites!".
Trump destroyed the GOP and made it the party of Trump. Now U.S.
rightists have put all of their eggs in one basket so-to-speak.
If Trump loses they are finished! Brilliant strategy on their
part ain't it!?
