Trump rages against Comey "assassination attempt" [1]

Trump was up early and reposted other Truth Social member's posts calling James Comey's seashell posts an assassination attempt.
Trump fired off 10 reposts before he went to breakfast.
They are like this one.
The next one said the 86 meant to take them 8 miles out and 6 feet under. People are so clueless that they are just reposting mistake after mistake and don't know a grave is dug 8 feet long. 8 miles out would imply out in the ocean, and digging a grave 6 feet deep would be kinda hard there. The other repetitious statement is that if Comey didn't know what he had done, why did he take it down?
How bloodthirsty MAGA faithful got in a matter of 24 hours. How he didn't just photograph the shells, but arranged them himself.
Still others depicted Trump as a warrior with a sword, promising retribution.
The assassination attempt is an inside job. Inside of what? "... in the internet." Never heard of someone saying "in the internet" before. Okay, I'll prove you wrong. Let me think a minute... you're wrong. Because I say it, it must be true.
I had expected a little undeserved outrage at Comey, but this is ridiculous. It is now a full fledged assassination attempt without a weapon, without being in any proximity to Trump.
Is Trump just playing on MAGA sympathy outrage or does he believe it himself for real?
In either case, it has gotten so blown out of proportion that Trump will start weighing in with his own thoughts, if you can call them that.
This is more important to Trump than mentioning the Palm Springs car explosion outside the fertility clinic. Not one word about that, because it's not about him.
All this is to Trump is to be able to play the sympathy card again and keep himself in the news with another me, me, me, me.
Everybody is obliging him. Even me. Only because he's made it a story showing how stupid he is. How insane he can get and how unhinged his supporters are. I thought they had chilled out a bit since Trump won. Nope. They are still ready to fulfill Der Leader's each and every whim.
That's what's so dangerous. They're threatening violence against anyone who contradicts their beliefs and belief system.
They haven't gone away, they've gotten crazier.
