If I’m Trump I Hire the Mossad to Guard Me

Posted: September 17, 2024 by datechguy in Uncategorized

I think this press conference by Ron DeSantis announcing an investigation of the Trump assassination attempt in Florida is telling:

He makes a good point that it’s important that a government that isn’t prosecute Trump investigate.

I would go a step farther, I think Trump needs to be protected by people who are not from a government that has been weaponized against him and his supporters.

So the question becomes who then?

It has to be a group with strong intelligence skills, a group adept in dealing with death threats and protecting people in constant danger, and a group skilled enough to react in time to save his life.

The obvious answer is the Mossad.

Any group that is able to blow the nuts off of thousands of their enemies without them having a clue when they are trying to murder Jews has the right stuff and don’t forget Israel has a vested interest in a Trump victory.

So if I’m Bibi, war situation or no, I’d offer Trump some Mossad agents to help protect him and if I’m Trump I let them do it or at least join the detail as observers to spot and holes that are being deliberately left open.

That’s my suggestion because remember one thing, it wasn’t the feds who caught this shooter, it was law enforcement in Florida.

I’m old enough to remember when Democrats when an election loss was pending would try and figure out how to convince voters to consider them rather than encouraging people to murder their opponents.

Of course that was back in the days when I was a Democrat last century.


There have been a few humorous reactions to this event but nothing I’ve seen is funnier than this headline from the Daily Caller:

Trump Has Survived More Assassination Attempts Than Harris Has Campaign Interviews

What makes it funny is that it’s true.


What really amazing about this story is that less that half a day before this 2nd assassination attempt Dana Bash was grilling J. D. Vance, Trump running mate trying to blame his and Trump rhetoric for various bomb threats in Springfield.

This begs the obvious question:

Question to

@DanaBashCNN As you attempted to assign responsibility to

@JDVance for phone threats in Springfield does that mean you will be assigning responsibility for #trumpassassinationattempt2 to

@KamalaHarris , Waltz and

@DavidMuir for their incendiary words?

For some reason the base tweet won’t embed, not sure why.


While the tech giants were very quick to scrub Ryan Routh’s very left leaning social media it’s going to be rather hard to scrub all the various interactions he had with left media over the years.

What’s really interesting is that once Ron DeSantis announced that Florida would conduct it’s own investigation suddenly the FBI became talkative about Mr. Routh’s ahem “interesting” past.


Finally my worry concerning all these attempts at murder is pretty much the same as Robert E Lee worry on the Union Generals being swapped out.

He famously said he was afraid that eventually they’d put in charge someone who he didn’t understand.

Me I’m afraid that one of these attempts will eventually succeed.

Of course I’m reaching the point where I think it it gets close enough to election day and the result seems a forgone conclusion and all these attempt keep failing someone in authority in government will just bite the bullet and do it himself.

That the country has fallen so far that I actually contemplate this is amazing to me and extremely sad.

Do remember you are there to fuddle him. From the way some of you young fiends talk, anyone would suppose it was our job to teach!

C. S. Lewis The Screwtape Letters Letter #1

In the days when I was doing Computer Technical Support (which is why this blog is DaTechGuy blog and why I’m DaTechGuy online) one of the things I ran into a lot were people who focused on a particular problem while losing sight of what their actual goal was. You could fix a bug but if you aren’t addressing what the actual goal was you weren’t doing the customer much good. I always established what they were trying to do and if there was a better way of doing it suggest it as I fixed the bug so that the underlying problem, the goal, could be achieved.

Even at my current location which is as far as you can get from tech support when I was occasionally given a new person to train on a simple process like picking items ordered, I never started there. I took them to every part of the warehouse from the receiving docks where the product came in, to the receivers to processed and recorded it, to the group putting to the stations where they were being shipped to the lines where the shipped items were put in their respective bins and back to the docks. The idea was to make people understand that while the task seemed mundane it was a vital cog that worked with all the others to the ultimate goal of getting a product ordered by a customer to their door.

One of the best attributes of Donald Trump is one he shares with both Ron DeSantis who I supported in the primaries, is that the sees things in this way and the entire Springfield business is an excellent example of how this works.

The media/left reacted with glee at Trump bringing up the of pets in Springfield and spent days bashing him over it.

This put the entire countries’ focus on Springfield and while the left was decrying memes showing Trump protecting cats and dogs and stuff like this hilarious image:

The reality was that it became excellent fodder for doing two things, first showing the left for what is it to wit:

And this is classic:

All that is fun but is misses the bottom line which is that now everybody is talking about how the Biden Administration dumped tens of thousand of foreign nationals on a small town doubling it’s population with no support for the town in coping with it.

That’s a subject the left doesn’t want to discuss but it’s the cat and dog business that gave the opening to J.D. Vance when the media tried to play “Gotcha” with him on it:

Or as Ace of Spade put it after posting a NY Times story which included (emphasis Ace):

Mr. Trump’s debate remarks have themselves become a meme on the left since Tuesday, as musical remixes of his comments have ping-ponged around Instagram, TikTok and other social platforms, mocking the pet-eating claims while also prolonging their stay in the news cycle.

The attention has been unwelcome in Springfield, where tensions over immigration have flared since an 11-year-old boy was killed last year when a Haitian immigrant driving without a valid license crashed his minivan into a school bus.

Which caused him to quip

“They’re killing 11-year-old boys, not cats” is not the winning message you think it is, New York Times.

Kurt Schlichter nailed it:

And if Trump ends up going to Springfield and highlights the issue it will be spiking the ball.

Update: JD Vance again:

and again

One of the disadvantages of telling a lie in front of a huge national audience is that reality often gets into the way.

For example when you “fact check”TM Donald Trump in front of a national audience of 60 million saying nothing is going on in Springfield Ohio, it just might hurt your credibility when this happens two days later:

Ohio Governor Mike DeWine has ordered state troopers and additional funding sent to the suffering city of Springfield, Ohio, to deal with a major influx of Haitian illegal immigrants dropped off there by the Biden-Harris regime:

“I want the people of Springfield and Clark County to know that as we move forward, we will continue to do everything we can to help the community deal with this surge of migrants,” said Governor DeWine. “The federal government has not demonstrated that they have any kind of plan to deal with the issue. We will not walk away.”

Ohio Governor Mike DeWine announced new state support for the city of Springfield, which is dealing with significant stress on its healthcare and public safety systems due to the influx of thousands of Haitian migrants over the last several years.

And of course as the world has internet it doesn’t help when people can hear this:

It’s a lot like what Ace of Spades noted on the Aurora Colorado story that the MSM initially dubbed as “fake”

Meanwhile, in Aurora, CO, where Tren de Aragau gangsters are definitely not taking over apartment buildings, You Deplorable Racists, police have arrested ten Tren de Aragua gang members for taking over apartment buildings.

Aurora PD arrests 10 members of the Tren de Aragua gang in connection apartment building takeover


Aurora police arrested 10 members of the Venezuelan gang, Tren de Aragua, for alleged violence against the migrant community. City officials stress the gang has not “taken over” Aurora.

Old narrative: these gang members have not taken over any apartment buildings in Aurora

New narrative: these gang members have not taken over the city of Aurora itself

Honestly it’s like the left thinks that video and audio have not been invented.

I’ll give the last word to that noted Trump Fan Marianne Williamson:

“Continuing to dump on Trump because of the “eating cats” issue will create blowback on Nov. 5. Haitian voodoo is in fact real, and to dismiss the story out-of-hand rather than listen to the citizens of Springfield. Ohio confirms in the minds of many voters the stereotype of Democrats as smug elite jerks who think they’re too smart to listen to anyone outside their own silo.”

Or at least would have if she didn’t get so much backlash that she ran away from her point:

Her comments set off a firestorm among leftists. Williamson’s colleagues wasted no time labeling her remarks as “racist.”

In an update following the backlash, Williamson attempted to clarify her stance:

“The conversation regarding Haitians in this country has gotten out of hand. While my tweet yesterday was not meant in any way whatsoever to feed a racist narrative, we’re living at a time when nuanced conversation is difficult – particularly so on twitter, where people read a few words, don’t even read the whole tweet, and project onto it things that aren’t even there. The larger issue, however, is the safety and well being of human beings. All of us. Haitians are a good people and contribute much to this country. Given the hysteria that’s present around this issue, I’m deleting yesterday’s tweet.”
