17 seriously on-point tweets that went viral after the assassination attempt on Donald Trump

Donald Trump is preparing for the Republican national convention less than 48 hours after a gunman fired shots at the former president at a rally in Pennsylvania.

The shooting, the full details of which are still to emerge, prompted no end of conspiracy theories to trend on Twitter, none of which we have room for here.

These 17 tweets also went viral and are rather more on point than all that.
