Well, well, well. Just when you thought the media couldn’t sink any lower, Joy Reid pops back up like a bad sequel no one asked for — and this time, she’s questioning whether Donald Trump was even shot.
Yes, really. According to Joy, the literal blood on the side of Trump’s face, the high-powered rifle, the dead volunteer fire chief, and the Secret Service dragging the 45th President off stage in a swirl of panic and chaos… might have all been theatrical. Possibly staged. Or maybe, she implies, just a scratch from a Lego or a rogue mosquito bite. Who knows? Certainly not the rest of us who only saw it happen in real time, from multiple angles, broadcast live, in front of thousands.
Apparently that wasn’t enough for the former MSNBC host, who, let’s be honest, has never let facts get in the way of a juicy conspiracy theory — unless, of course, it involves her own political team.
But let’s talk about what this actually means, because this isn’t just some unhinged comment buried deep in the internet. This was a full-on interview with fellow ex-MSNBCer Katie Phang, where Joy goes off the rails accusing Trump’s doctors — including a sitting Republican congressman and former White House physician — of covering up the fact that Trump… wasn’t actually shot?
According to her, “magical doctors” patched him up, and poof — he was good to go. Never mind the documented 2 cm gash. Or the bullet that reportedly missed his skull by less than a quarter of an inch. Or the photos. Or the RNC bandage. Or the man who died in the crowd. No, no — in Joy’s world, if the media didn’t spoon-feed her a forensic breakdown in under five minutes, it must be a hoax.
Because apparently, nearly assassinating a former U.S. president just isn’t that big of a deal… when his name is Trump.
Good lord. You can see the crazy in her eyes. Plain as day.https://t.co/Lkf7NqDYpb

#45 (@BobFighter_45) Now just pause for a second and imagine the reaction if this had happened to Joe Biden. Think CNN would be scratching their heads, wondering whether a bullet was actually a bug bite? Think Joy Reid would be musing about “shrapnel” on Threads? No — we’d have candlelight vigils on every major network, 24/7 coverage, a federal holiday declared, and probably a Netflix documentary greenlit by lunchtime.
But when it’s Trump?
Silence. Deflection. Or worse — outright denial that it happened at all.
Joy Reid went so far as to say she knows more about McKinley’s assassination than this one. Which is strange, because last time we checked, William McKinley didn’t have HD footage, social media coverage, and a modern forensic team on-site. But let’s not get bogged down by details. It’s 2024 — reality is optional.
And this is exactly the kind of twisted, logic-defying rhetoric that not only insults the intelligence of Americans, but dangerously downplays a direct attack on a presidential candidate — an attack that came inches from changing the course of American history.
But it’s not just Joy Reid here. This is part of a larger, quieter media narrative: If it doesn’t benefit their side, it didn’t happen. Or at least, not the way you think it did. If Trump had died that day, would the headlines have mourned the man or celebrated the political opportunity? It’s a disturbing question, and the answer feels more obvious by the hour.

Let’s not forget — Reid’s show was canned earlier this year. So maybe this is just a sad, desperate reach for relevance. But when that reach involves suggesting an assassination attempt might have been faked? That’s not just unhinged — that’s disgusting.
Maybe MSNBC saw this coming. Maybe that’s why The ReidOut is now The RejectedOut.
But the bigger story isn’t Joy’s meltdown. It’s what she represents: a media class so far removed from basic decency and objectivity that they’re now trying to gaslight the public into questioning their own eyes.
They want you to doubt what you saw. They want you to question whether it happened at all. And they need you to forget — because what actually happened doesn’t fit their script.
Too bad for them, America was watching.
