I'm sorry, but if that actually is true, and the videos are not 100% verified, but that is major, major incompetence. At the very least, Trump should have been taken away. Plus the fact that there was literally a counter sniper team there, the shooter was within a few hundred yards, people were literally taking video of him, and there was zero response?

What a gong show.

Everyone can call it whatever they want, but absolutely brutal. Now makes you wonder about the protection of any high ranking US officials & past Presidents.


The videos are legit and can be synched as Trump's speech was present in the video showing the shooter on the roof. There was a full 2 minutes of time that elapsed from when he was on the roof and the first shot

We are all talking here that the shooter missed and grazed Trump's ear, but his target was completely dead on, only a quick turn to the right at the exact same second as the shot caused the shot to graze his ear. The shot as aimed would have hit the back of his head. The political situation would have been in complete turmoil.
