Summary

The aftermath of a failed assassination attempt on Donald Trump: A horrifying assassination attempt on Donald Trump’s life was made this past Saturday; with the shooter causing the death of one onlooker and serious injuries for two others. Trump’s opponent Joe Biden has already condemned the violence and there are still a lot of unknowns, but a glaring condemnation of US political debate in recent years is that no one seems surprised that this could have happened. On a more coldly practical level, many are saying Trump’s defiant response to his bleeding ear wound will rally any on the fence voters to his side. To fully dissect what we know and don’t know, Piers brings in The Daily Wire co-founder Ben Shapiro. Followed by a debate between The Daily Beast columnist Wajahat Ali, former Navy SEAL & author Robert O'Neill & journalist Emily Austin. Former Navy Seal and Texas Congressman Dan Crenshaw joins Uncensored for the first time, as does former Trump lawyer and New York mayor Rudy Giuliani. progressive political commentator Luke Beasley & co-chair of the Republican Youth Advisory Council CJ Pearson close out the show.
