- James O'Brien discusses the assassination attempt on Donald Trump and praises his reaction to the incident.
Saturday evening saw a shooter take aim at the former president during a rally in Pennsylvania, with Trump shot in the ear by a sniper before being rushed off stage by close security.
He's now said he's "lucky to be alive" in his first interview since he was shot at.
James argues that the former president's response was 'very impressive' and 'objectively remarkable'.
However, he stresses that this still hasn't taken away his 'disgust for what he has done to democracy.'

Is this the same James O’Brien that not too long ago made a joke about Trump being assassinated???
James O'BRIEN should be made an example of like Jack Black! I salute Australia for there swift action and response for the exact comments as this one. James O'BRIEN is a hateful cold hearted hypocrite. I pray this show gets shut down.
@@CairoNova He is sllowed to be all the above though because it's HIS show remember 😂
This is him trying to back track cos he realised he crossed the line
Yup and it was funnyAzFuk 😂
The comments here are so depressing. Just when you think people are waking up. TDS is alive and well.
The lies the media has touted about Trump has been sickening.
It’s been 8 years of propaganda. Some people are just sheep. You can dislike him without the derangement i pray people
@darthpepe2994 That's not what I'm seeing at all.
The British anchormen and woman were acting as if it was funny during coverage! Absolutely apauling!!
The man who more than anyone has fommented hate, division and violence almost became the victim of it.Then he the calls for unity. It's incredible that people are falling for this, but fall they will.

Saw Biden's response & ask yourselves if the situation was flipped, you think Trump would show even an ounce of concern for Biden?
Zelensky gave a similar respectable response condemning it too. I doubt Trump would be as kind there either.
You think bidens concern was genuine? He could hardly read what was on the teleprompter
Trump would defenitely call Biden to the battle box
No fkn way
He didn't for Paul Pelosi
You could say he is now in ear shot of winning the presidency.
Nope

The donation thing has been debunked already. Just a fella with the same name.
In which philosophy graduate James O'Brien reveals he doesn't know the difference between "objective", "universal" and "intrinsic". Nothing is intrinsically remarkable because remarkability requires a subject.
I do think that O’Brien is an idiot also, but some entities/ ideas can be intrinsically remarkable.
For example, I think that reproduction is intrinsically remarkable, it is impressive in virtue of itself, that being the action of creating a new life.
The main thing that Trump voters have in common their love for their country. This can’t be said for Democrats

The problem is not the wobbly Trump supporters but the wobbly Biden ones.
I can't believe that people are buying into mess
The gall of him to come out as calling for unity. I doubt it is a shift in his attitude and more an opportunistic spin on the event. If anyone doesn't deserve the benefit of the doubt, it is Trump.
And if he did the opposite you would criticise that. Sometimes, when you have nothing positive to offer, it's best to say nothing.
@@mattyr40 maybe listen to yourself?
It will change Trump and his following I imagine. But not for the better like JoB suggests.

You know whats appalling listening to you
Please.. It's all smokes and mirrors. A child could see through the BS.
He was literally mid speech saying how there should be detention concentration camps for Mexicans and is now being credited with calling for unity.
Weak journalism here pal.
Did he say concentration camp, seriously
He could not have made it clearer he still despises all that Trump believes and stands for. He said that several times. This is what he was talking about. Objectively if it were a more sane former president who had done the exact same thing, we would all (including me) be satisfied with his reaction. However there is the dichotomy because it's Trump, a man who has exclusively stood for hate and bigotry, so we are rightly skeptical of his response. James said exactly that, nothing else. Everyone knows what Trump has done and stands for, the question James is thinking about is how thay affects our view of the event and the aftermath
@@MarkusMaximus2000 Markus Biden has kicked out more Mexicans than Trump.
Within the first 24 months under Trumps administration there were 1.4 million arrests of which 47% were removed (658,000).
Under Biden the first 26 months under there were 5.0 million arrests of which 51% were removed (2,550,000).
Proportionally 3.5 times under Biden

@@pogobear123your jealousy of a man you've never met stands out by a mile. Shame you'll never have 1% of success as he has had.

Well, that was a truly disappointing take from James.
HE DIDN'T SAY WHAT I WANTED HIM TO SAYYY REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
For actually having compassion?? I can’t stand james but he’s acting better than you lot right now.
Why
He really thinks he can influence an American election 😂 they’re not even listening mate
Unfortunately what happens in the US does affect us here in the UK. Not heard anything to suggest JOB wants to influence US voters.
There is absolutely NO WAY trump wrote that response. It has proper spelling, punctuation, no rambling about his perceived enemies. It shows empathy and understanding. Things he’s incapable of.
You've never really listened to Trump. We get it. You don't have to keep showing your ignorance.

@@charlescalkins3485 He's not wrong though. Zero spelling errors, proper punctuation and grammar, in addition to didactic flow. All qualities completely absent in Trump's normal social media behavior...................

Joe Biden at least types his own tweets. He is so sharp I can’t stand all the maga disinformation on his cognitive abilities.
Now he doesn’t need to go to Claire’s for an ear piercing
🥱
Don't underestimate the power of news, the power of recognition, the messianic fervor, the religious reinterpretation, the power of popular amplification, the power of conspiracy. This incident would undoubtedly cause a jump in the polls and lead to a few hundred thousand votes more. The demographics and culture of the US is very different from that if the UK, regardless of shared language and culture.
Anyone believing in this conman needs help. I don’t find him in anyway remarkable. He is still disgusting for everything he represents.
Don't you haters ever take time off? Even for a terrible tragedy such as this? How sad.
Prove to me in any way that he is a conman

@@rb1062because of the hate and fear he costed on so many peoples lives.
People that had to move away from their community and move states because of the hate he fostered with his lies.
The people he threatened and intimidated with no regards for their life and wellbeing.
I can muster sympathy for those that were hurt and killed in crowd and trumps families.
But we must not forget that he hasnt an ounce of empathy for others.
That's not hate that just reminding us who the man is.
Check what he said when pelosi husband was attacked.
Check what he said when Gretchen whitmer was almost kidnapped.
Check the whistleblowers whose names he tried to doxx and spread fear and invited violence against.
Check that he tried to stay in power illegally defrauding the American public.
I have only slight pity for him as I'm not a cold person that he is.
Sacrificing other people's life for his own benefit, again and again.
And because i have basic empathy, I'm not letting of when he is a victim of the hate and fear he has instituted himself in his own followers and supporters.
I have time for them. But not for the instigator, that still actively harms people.
And because he doesn't go e any thing back , it only goes one way. And if you give him quarter he just drain you and toss you aside.
Everybody knows this including most of his supporters .
If he went a d tried to redeem himself we can talk, but he only ever doubled down and increased harms.
Threats, People going into hiding.
Intimidation, people paralyzed with fear the day they have to testify, because he acts like a mafia boss.
How bad do I feel when a mafia boss is shot by his own?
Am a little saddened ofcourse but also shrugs.
And think of the damage he invokes on many many people every day.
Trump is not a republican , be is an extreme maga republican, that has no respect for other people's life.
Did he shown any concern for the poor saps who were actually hurt?

What detracts from that image, for me, is knowing that he is standing there with pants almost completely full of poo. And not even from the shock, just routinely.
He jumped out of his shoes and wouldn't leave without them because without his lifts he's under 6ft.

I can only imagine that Trump’s idea of unity is anything but the idea of unity that either one of us may have.
Something along the lines of my way or your opinion is dangerous springs to mind.
The old Conservative saying is 'my way or the highway'. For them unity is all about falling in line and obedience without questioning what you're being told to do. It's the same nonsense you find in any authoritarian regime.
Remarkable? Do you not understand that he is all about image? Don’t think for one minute that this incident changes him. Leopard don’t change their spots. You can’t teach an old dog new tricks. Don’t be naive, James….
Don’t fall for the deception mate
Well now we know he was a member of a gun club and was in a blackrock advert
I wonder how many times they rehearsed.
@octobrain. You are right to have doubts. The incompetence of the gunman is something Sherlock Holmes would have noticed straightaway. It was odd. The killer was remarkable in his ability to outwit the smartest defence team in the States - but so hopeless with a gun ! Or was he in fact, a master of precision to rival the talent of William Tell ?
Why in god's name would you praise a madman?
James voted Boris for mayor.
Why is he a mad man?
This hatred for Trump is despicable.Hes not perfect like all of us but he's a family ma,a man of peace.He cares about people and will try anything that stops countries going to war.
The abuse he has taken is never ending and disgusting.The Democrats clearly want him out of the way.The tried to impeach him.They tried to put him in prison and now questions have to asked ,who was behind this.They will clearly go to any costs to stop him running in November.because they know he will win and they can't allow an anti war President in the Whitehouse because then the people who run America don't get paid.
Try to comprehend the idea that you may be wrong about him, does a point ever come where you admit you were wrong?? Or will you all stand with the lies till the end??

Curioser and curioser.....
it is as if he knew he was in no danger.
He was more concerened with how he could exploit this dreadful situation for a photo op. speaks to his character
Trump is that political character from "The Dead Zone."
And TH-cam keeps deleting some of my comments.
Smh 😞
No his reaction was bizarre as this was clear fake. James stop with the emotional nonsense. You don't do photo ops in such situations 🤷🏾♂️
So you are arguing that trump took a photo op and had a random fire fighter killed, and had the person he hired according to you also killed, this is a deranged thought process
calm down, alex jones.
@jay4you. I entirely agree. Photo ops were what it was all about. The truth is in the sequence of “ events” - the actual timing and sequence of the details. What did you see or hear ? And how quickly we were told what was happening off-stage. Yes, his reaction was indeed bizarre. He had never “pretended” before - ever. Lied. Certainly. Acting is a different skill, and he couldn’t carry it off. Though it was as brief as they could make it. As for the “shot” itself - which actually connected , so we are told, ask any firearms expert. If the journalists had any private doubts, they wouldn’t share them with us. They would be risking their credibility.: they’ll wait until later.
You're giving Trump far too much credit. Also will his crowd love him being all lovey dovey? Hardly. His speech will make Maga maga harder, non Maga do more of the same. And Christians who dislike Trump be even MORE angry that he claims messiah status when others died, and that he's better.
He never claimed to be a Messiah. That is media spin!
