Trump Assassination Attempt Was Staged Like A Madea Movie – Actress Seales
Actress Amanda Seales, known for her role in the hit series “Insecure,” has sparked controversy by claiming that the assassination attempt on former President Donald Trump was staged.
In a recent post, Seales didn’t mince words, comparing the event to a theatrical production.
“That sh*# was more staged than a Tyler Perry production of Madea Runs for President,” Seales remarked.
Drawing on her experiences living in Harlem, she questioned the authenticity of the gunfire, saying, “I lived in Harlem long enough to know that gunshots do not sound like making popcorn on the stove.”
Seales elaborated on her theory by pointing out the lack of visible blood and suggesting the use of “blood pallets” — fake blood capsules often used in theatrical productions and Halloween events. “It’s basically a pellet of fake blood that’s in your ad when you crush it, the blood comes out,” she explained.
Her most striking point centered on Trump’s reaction. “To be frank, small hands Trump would not respond by raising his fist triumphantly if an actual attempt was made on his life,” she stated.
Seales believes the incident was orchestrated to project an image of strength and resilience in contrast to President Joe Biden’s perceived fragility.
As the discussion continues, the authenticity of the alleged assassination attempt remains a topic of intense scrutiny.

The singer wrote, “My mom is from Edo for those wondering why I’m interested in the election … but we as Nigerians should be concerned sha .. @inecnigeria shame on you I know how many times I had to come in here and rant before they got it right in Osun ! It’s really bad. God help us.”
Davido previously endorsed the PDP candidate, Asuen Ighodalo, for the Edo gubernatorial election through his Instagram account.
