MARK STEYN: They Want Him Dead.
My own line on failed assassinations is that of the IRA taunting Mrs Thatcher after the Brighton bombing: You have to be lucky every time; we only have to be lucky once.
In the last two months, Trump has been lucky twice. There are another two months to go: can he be lucky thrice? Four times?
If I were Trump I wouldn’t want these guys anywhere near me – the official government protection, that is. The law-&-order types on the right have been ballyhooing the quick thinking of one individual agent on the ground – which is fine and dandy, but conveniently absolves the “bureaucracy” of its failure to provide sufficient protection, even after he’s already been shot and an American citizen has died. Trump is one of the comparatively few presidents who has taken a bullet for his country, which is more than even Tim Walz can claim, but nobody who matters is interested. The court eunuchs at ABC News couldn’t be bothered with a question on this summer’s near-assassination, but they did make room for a question about the rental practices of Donald Trump’s father over half-a-century ago.
As for this latest incident, the wife of the Hero of Impeachment One and sister-in-law of a Virginia congressional candidate sums up the general attitude of the Dems:
No ears were harmed. Carry on with your Sunday afternoon.

As Hugh Hewitt responded, “The family of Corey Comperatore would like a word with Rachel Vindman.”
In the old days, I would have cited Ian Fleming in Goldfinger:
Once is happenstance. Twice is coincidence. The third time it’s enemy action.
But I think my longtime Rush colleague Diana Allocco is closer to the mark:
This is like the plane flying into the second tower. The situation is suddenly totally clear. We are under attack.

Just so. When I heard that an airplane had hit the north tower, I spent the next fifteen minutes going about as usual on the assumption that some twin-prop had had an accident. Then the radio announced that another ‘plane had hit the south tower. The Secret Service failures in Florida are as crude and obvious as they were in Pennsylvania which means that, in the words of my former GB News colleague Neil Oliver, this is happening because they want it to happen. They want Trump to die, and they are willing to create the necessary conditions.
