I take no joy or excitement in thinking maybe this was intentional incompetence or intentional. I don't want that to be true but it could be true. But I'm not the average person. My guess is that most Trump supporters are either thinking it was intentional or considering that as likely.
Its not good at all.

Most of what I see on twitter from the new right implies if not hypothesizes intent. Most of what I see from the new left are attempts to excommunicate the shooter from the party (as if that matters), avoid party blame, and at best bite their tongue through Trump's status come up. Most of what I see from moderates is disgust at the incompetence.
All things considered, it feels like intentional incompetence to me but hopefully we eventually get evidence to suggest otherwise.

That's pretty much what I see as well.

I'm afraid for what happens regardless. While this isn't reported as related, blocks from the RNC a homeless man was shot and killed by police crossing the street. Emotions are heightened and they tend to be very leaky.

Anyone in law enforcement is gonna be on edge now. Even far away from these politicians.
