So long as the investigation is fair, honest, and open

Then let the chips fall where they may.

Of course, with Cheeto and his acolytes involved, it would be surprising if they allow the investigation to be any of those things.

First, the shooting at one of  Cheeto's events.

Trump shooting live updates: Suspect's family is cooperating

Federal authorities are investigating after former president Donald Trump was shot in an assassination attempt at an election rally in Butler, Pennsylvania, on Saturday.

Secret Service agents swarmed Trump and ducked behind the podium. Blood could be seen on his right ear of Trump as agents surrounded him and led him off the stage to a waiting vehicle to whisk him away.

Trump is "fine," a spokesperson said. The alleged shooter is dead. One spectator was killed and two were hurt, officials said.

I will say that it has been interesting to watch supporters of politically motivated violence to denounce politically motivated violence...that's directed toward the leading supporter of politically motivated violence.

They were OK with the assault on Nancy Pelosi's husband, shooting up a pizza shop based on fake news, the violent and deadly insurrection of January 6, 2021, the multiple threats to public officials over the 2020 election, and more.

On the other hand, shooting at Dear Leader?

They're not so OK with that.

The cynical portion of this post comes in two parts:

1. I don't believe it will be long before Cheeto or one of his campaign surrogates starts demanding that he be awarded a Purple Heart over yesterday's shooting.

2. I don't believe in coincidences.  The timing of this is fortuitous.

To say the least.
