And I literally replied to your initial post when I saw it.


Cool. I'll change it to "most never trumpers" so it doesn't confuse anyone else
It's ok to just admit you were wrong. I'm wrong all the time. Just not this time.


Look at my post history

I'm not wrong, but I realize you're small enough to fight with someone on the same team as you

Except this dude was shooting at a man. Lots of difference if you have never done it. Especially for an untrained non military combat individual.
Folks need to quit with the target shooting and dear hunting comparisons. I would say this dude had buck fever times 1000 and was hyper nervous.
Adrenaline alone causes people to miss repeatedly from even very short distances, especially if they are not accustomed to it..

Certified bad ass, Mike Matranga (Texas City) former SS and Presedential detail went on TikTok earlier. Not surprised that this happened. Fair points about division.

But the shot was on if Trump didn't turn his head. The shot wasn't bad.

Exactly.
And that is just with a pistol, imagine the other dozen things that peope untrained or in the heat of the moment can't control. Things such as the wind, and maybe he didnt zero the weapon. Or he zeroed it with one ammo type then on the day of used a differeent type, these things and many others just add to the factors that cause misses.

Maxwell Yearick seems like more likely shooter. Prior for disrupting Trump rally with charges dropped by Biden DOJ fits too.

So many on the right are so desperate for this to be a grand conspiracy. It will validate eveyting they've believed since 2016, and especially after 4 years of being fed Qisms.

All it takes is an intentionally unsupported SS detail and plenty of crazies being fed endless rage everywhere they look. Sooner or later was of them was going to go off.

The only thing worse is thinking Trump was saved by supernatural intervention. If that was true, what it means would be terrifying.
Forgive some of us for not taking everything at face value immediately after living through the last four years beginning with covid to now and for believing in God and miracles.

Man if this video is real its pretty damning he def was eyes on when the dude shot and he was stunned it look like. The second sniper even drops down for cover before popping back up. If you are protecting a president you don't worry about yourself you drop that shooter as soon as you saw him.
Yep, you see the, kneeling, sniper flinch at the first shot, them go back to his scope. Not a good look.

Online narrative forming that shooter was a "registered republican".

However supposedly donated to ActBlue and democrats. Some said he likely registered a republican to vote against Trump.

Curious what we will learn. I expect a lot to be made out of the registered republican story though.

They just announced the name on Fox News. I'm kind of flipping back-and-forth between news sources which it makes me sick to flip over to CNN but I'm curious to see what you're saying too. Surprisingly it's not as bad as you think. I haven't watched program on television in years.

Trump needs to get the rights to play this at every rally going forward.

My comment is this guy was no trained combat killer. He most certainly till today had never pointed a firearm at a live human with a lock and loaded firearm. He was mentally messed up anyway and his emotions were through the roof and adrenaline running rampant.
As hunters we have all experienced " buck fever" …. And that's the anticipation of shooting at an animal…… I can imagine what this idiot was feeling.
Even well trained soldiers sometimes have severe emotional trauma the first time they take aim at another living human.
It's nothing like shooting at a paper silhouette target for sure.

I still think the only reason why Trump isn't dead is because he turned his head at the exact moment.

TDS is fairly strong with some people who claim to be republicans.

Plenty of Democrats register to vote in Republican primaries

They showed a blurred out video of them taking out the deceased person in the stands. Appears he was sitting on the left upper side in the stands behind him.

If you were aiming center mass of his head….. and the head pivots…. The shot still hits it… you would expect.

He took a round to the face. Sadly dead on the spot.

First time live shooter though. Jerking the trigger moved it enough.

No doubt, he had buck fever. Most every hunter has experienced it.

The difference is I was never worried about the animal killing me. This shooter knew he had about five seconds to live.

Well, I guess he didn't suffer but so sad just randomly where he happened to sit.
