James O'Brien praises Donald Trump's 'defiant' reaction to assassination attempt | LBC

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???

[brendanbutler]

My posts criticizing left wing ideology mysteriously keep being deleted from the comments

[rtses]

If you're not sure about what Trump is about . . . Then why are you disgusted by him?

[JujuUpTheMountain]

The comments here are so depressing. Just when you think people are waking up. TDS is alive and well.

The problem is not the wobbly Trump supporters but the wobbly Biden ones.

[garywhite]

The British anchormen and woman were acting as if it was funny during coverage! Absolutely apauling!!

[htantijira]

James is the most depressing man ever, I have rarely seen him talk positive. Even makes positive news depressing. Did anyone notice?

[sp-pzuc]

You could say he is now in ear shot of winning the presidency.

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.

[mauromatos]

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.

[markbantz]

James, obviously, doesn’t understand US politics!

[emiebex]

Saw Biden's response & ask yourselves if the situation was flipped, you think Trump would show even an ounce of concern for Biden?

[LoveProWrestling]

Strategy and messaging, not an awakening of conscience or awareness. Always grifting, always trying to take something or use someone. including religion.

[SeanBeag]

The donation thing has been debunked already. Just a fella with the same name.

[ianstritzel]

You've lost a lot of listeners from this broadcast james

[simulationkoyo]

Actually Trump was praising the same ones who tried to do this to Mike Pence not too long ago. Remember that? Think he even promised them pardons.

[richardgough]

James you're being deliberately ignorant

[Fthegagenda]

He really thinks he can influence an American election 😂 they’re not even listening mate

[sam]

The main thing that Trump voters have in common their love for their country. This can’t be said for Democrats

[scottmartin]

He openly mocked Paul Pelosi after he was attacked in his own home.
