And the answer is, Trump couldn't fake it, even for a few hours. His response to the bombs was to blame ... the media. Meanwhile the right-wing media went all "fake news" on a mass assassination attempt.

Paul Krugman added,

Paul KrugmanVerified account @paulkrugman

I'll be curious to see the GOP response to the assassination attempts against Soros, the Clintons, and Obama (because that's what they were). The smart thing would be to pretend to be horrified. But I'm not sure they can even manage to fake it.

"Apple declined to comment on the president’s iPhones. None of them are completely secure and are vulnerable to hackers who could remotely break into the phones themselves.

But the calls made from the phones are intercepted as they travel through the cell towers, cables and switches that make up national and international cellphone networks. Calls made from any cellphone — iPhone, Android, an old-school Samsung flip phone — are vulnerable."

Apple claimed they had not provided a "back door" to their phones.

There must be a "front door" to run advertising scripts.

The telephone network is much more accessible than it should be.

The eavesdropper must be present on the local server and collecting the traffic.  It is much easier to to copy all the packets than to watch for single strings of packets from a specific client.

"But as of now, less than a week before the trial is scheduled to start in Federal District Court in Eugene, whether the young people will get their day in court is still an open question. On Friday, Chief Justice John G. Roberts Jr. granted a Trump administration request to put a brief hold on the proceedings to consider government filings that could derail the case.

It is unclear how long the delay will last, or what the outcome will be. The Supreme Court could even dismiss the litigation, though that would be unusual at this early stage."

Strategically the Trump administration must delay trial.
Dismissing this vital decision would bring more pressure on the Republican
majorities.  Letting it go to trial would do the same.
The Trump administration should lose in court.
A win would be a Pyrrhic victory.

"The first chapters examine Mr. Trump’s grandmother, Elisabeth Christ Trump, a German immigrant who raised her children in isolation from her homeland. She Americanized the spelling of her name to Elizabeth, and used her husband’s inheritance to incorporate the real estate company that would come to be known as the Trump Organization — a fact that, Ms. Burleigh argues in the book, was disputed and ultimately erased from history with help from her grandson, who gave all credit to his father, Fred.

Next comes Mary Anne MacLeod Trump, the fisherman’s daughter from a Scottish village whose past as a maid in the 64-room Carnegie Mansion Ms. Burleigh uncovered in census files at the New York Public Library. That brush with New York high society, Ms. Burleigh writes, engendered an outsider’s love of ceremony and pomp inherited by Mrs. Trump’s fourth child, the future president of the United States."

"Frederick, Sr. had become rich during his exploits in the Klondike Gold Rush,^[7] and visited his home of Kallstadt, where he met Elizabeth Christ, the daughter of a former neighbor.^[8]:94 Back in New York City, they moved to the German-speaking Morrisania neighborhood of the Bronx, but Elizabeth didn't like it, so they returned to Bavaria. They attempted to immigrate, but could not due to Frederick's having fled mandatory military service years earlier.^[9]
They conceived their first son, and returned to New York upon the SS Pennsylvania on July 1, 1905. Frederick Christ Trump was born in the Bronx on October 11, 1905.^[10] Trump was one of three children of German Lutheran immigrants Elizabeth (née Christ) and Frederick Trump. He had a younger brother John and an older sister Elizabeth Trump Walters (1904–1961)."

Adult lactose tolerance.

"“There are often many layers of uncertainties in our findings,” said Anna Di Rienzo, a human genetics professor at the University of Chicago. “Being able to communicate that level of uncertainty to a public that often just sees things in black and white is very, very difficult.”

As a step toward changing that, Dr. Di Rienzo has helped organize a meeting of social scientists, geneticists and journalists at Harvard next week to discuss the social implications of the field’s newest tools.

Participants have been promised that the meeting will be restricted to some three-dozen invitees and that any remarks made there will be confidential.

And David L. Nelson, a Baylor College of Medicine geneticist who is president of the human genetics society, says it will not stay completely quiet on the issue, promising a statement later this week.

“There is no genetic evidence to support any racist ideology,” he said."

"Any reporter who has covered a humanitarian disaster should understand what Stalin is once reported to have said to a fellow Soviet official: The death of one person is a tragedy, but the death of one million is a statistic."

"Psychologists have repeatedly found that people experience a greater emotional reaction to one death than to many, even if the circumstances are identical. Perversely, the more victims, the less sympathy that people feel.The effect even has a name: collapse of compassion. It’s not that we can’t care about a million deaths, psychologists believe. Rather, we fear being overwhelmed and switch off our own emotions in pre-emptive self-defense."

"Under the proposal, drug companies would have to disclose price information “in a legible textual statement” at the end of each TV ad. The statement would have to appear on the screen long enough, in large enough type, so that it could easily be read.

The proposed rule would carry out ideas set forth in May in Mr. Trump’s blueprint to lower drug prices, but it is a sharp departure from his usual efforts to promote market-based solutions and slash federal regulations."

The Republican party is in trouble with the electorate.
