    how are you finding it that Donald is just not getting out and campaiging - no big outdoor rallies ---------- why?

    how about post trauma from being shot at?

    gotta be a very high likelihood of post trauma there - flashbacks memories, nightmares

    it would be an unusual human to not have such things ----------- the result -

    fear of going out again.

    if that is the case - is it not ironic that Donald's own act - has come back to bite him, not on the arse ---------- but, in the ear ---------- after all - he was the man who overturned gun laws restricting gun sales to people with mental illness -

    Khama Donald

    your man Donald - his days may well be over - the fire put out - by a passing bullet

    ''President Donald Trump overturned an Obama-era regulation that made it harder for people with mental illnesses to purchase guns. This regulation, finalized in December 2016, required the Social Security Administration to report individuals receiving Social Security checks for mental illnesses and those deemed unfit to manage their financial affairs to the national background check database. The Obama administration estimated that this would have added about 75,000 names to the database, aiming to block some individuals with severe mental health problems from buying guns[1][2][3][4][5].
    The regulation was intended to strengthen the federal background check system following the Sandy Hook Elementary School shooting in 2012. However, it faced opposition from gun rights advocates, including the National Rifle Association, who argued that it infringed on Second Amendment rights. Disability groups and the American Civil Liberties Union also opposed the rule, contending that it was too broad and affected individuals who were capable of responsibly owning firearms[2][5].
    In February 2017, Trump signed a bill, H.J. Res 40, which nullified this regulation, a move that was applauded by gun rights advocates and criticized by gun control supporters[1][3][4][5].
