"There is no such sniper who hits a nervous and moving target from 130 meters so that only the ear of the person he targeted is damaged," Bálint Somkuti refuted the conspiracy theories related to the assassination of Trump. Interview.
The researcher and analyst of the geopolitical workshop of the Mathias Corvinus Collegium also spoke about the points of the program of the Republican presidential candidate that have been known so far.
After the assassination of Donald Trump, in the past few days we have read about alleged Iranian assassins trying to kill the former president. Is this also part of the pressure on the Republican candidate or a serious threat?
I was also informed about the news, but not about its source. I would not be convinced if this information came from a pro-Israel newspaper or an organization connected to Israel. Regardless of the fact that Trump is really not a great friend of Iran and the leadership in Tehran, this kind of further escalation of the situation would be more favorable to the Israeli leadership.
For what reason?
Since Trump is doing everything in the Middle East to reduce Iran's ambitions and support Israel - the news of the alleged assassination can also be fitted into this formula. It is not customary to kill this type of leadership candidate, because it would have very serious consequences. So I consider this information more of a media hack.
Let's make America safe again, Make America Safe Again - this was the slogan Trump used at the Republican convention. Could this be the password you can use to get through the campaign?
Many things can be put behind a slogan, but the fact is that Trump's already successful presidential election campaign was further helped by the assassination which he miraculously survived.
However, amazing conspiracy theories have already appeared in this regard.
An assassination of this type cannot be staged. There is no such sniper who can hit a nervous and moving target from 130 meters so that only the ear of the target is damaged. It was a stroke of divine luck or intervention; he's a fool who doesn't take advantage of it. You will definitely build your campaign around this. This momentum will bring him to victory even against such an unexpected, but not completely unimaginable opponent, such as Michelle Obama. The social division that has recently prevailed in the United States is actually very serious and carries very serious dangers. The wild drives of the left: the woke, the mindless imposition of inclusivity, the making of LGBTQ ideology and others will certainly be fought back by Trump as president, and his slogan can be Make America Safe Again.
Perhaps it was also aimed at the masses of incoming migrants: just a few days ago, we could read, for example, about robberies and murders linked to migrants that occurred in a hitherto safe part of California, exposed to a serious wave of migration.
It is certain that the former president could have alluded to this, since his life was also saved by the issue of immigration, because he looked at the board showing the immigration data, and that is why he was shot. He presented the figure that 20 million illegal migrants have arrived in the United States in recent years. So this topic is probably included in his "package", in America it is a serious problem.
As part of the campaign against the newly introduced vice-presidential candidate, Vance, the young politician is accused of isolating himself from major political processes and turning to Asia. Are they afraid of running out of money that can be pumped into Ukraine?
It is not unrealistic to fear that Trump will step into the European politics of liberal circles, as well as the values considered sacred, including the nonsense of today I'm a girl, tomorrow I'm a boy. It is not isolation that Trump and his vice president would reverse the pursuit of "world government". Rather, they would prioritize real American interests and focus on real geopolitical efforts instead of propaganda and ideological considerations. And with the turn to Asia, previously announced by President Obama, the nightmare of European liberals would come true.
In the meantime, despite the pledges, which promised to turn down the flame of hatred from the Democratic side, we hear about strong swings and dangerous messages: such was the "Don't miss it next time", the joke of the Jack Black band, or the shooting game called "Attack against Trump" appearance. What is the reason that it is not possible to put the brakes on, to prevent the campaign from getting worse?
I have to defend the band, it was a shout from which Jack Black immediately distanced himself, but the fundamental problem is that the hysteria against Trump already started in 2016, and they did not ease it for a minute, until the current assassination attempt. So when Hollywood stars like Robert Downey Jr. also come out against Trump and urge people to do something about the former president, and when CNN and The Washington Times write about Trump falling on stage - while the shots can be clearly heard on the recordings, then we see a deliberate discrediting campaign, a demonization of the opponent that goes on unceasingly, and the assassination is a clear consequence of that mentality.
What risks did the instigators of his tension take?
They have been destroying the American social consensus for years, and it cannot be stopped overnight. Those who let the genie out of the bottle should prepare for the worst, because they do have financial and media power, but real power, armed force and political support, do not. From here on, we will see a struggle that affects the fate of the whole world. It is not by chance that I have spoken in several places that the collapse of the Western world was mere centimeters and hundredths of a second away, as civil war would have been inevitable after an assassination attempt involving the death of President Trump.
