Yet another example of why social media can be a pox on society.
But without X/twitter (thank God Elon bought it when he did) we would be relying on the CNN/CBS/NBC/etc. version of the assassination attempt.

It's quite the paradox...


Yeah, until the truth would get out, for the first couple days all we'd see is that "Trump falls down at loud noise cuts ear."

Also, stop and think about the audience member whose life ended immediately from a near miss bullet. I doubt their family is talking about divine intervention. Just sad stuff all around
Agree 100%!!!!

The only thing that saved Trump was his sudden head turn to the right. Seems it happened a millisecond before the bullet arrived. Go look at the vids.

Shooter was spot on with the shot, but didn't account for the sudden head turn .

If not for that head turn, the head shot would have killed him instantly.



Yep. He was putting pressure on the trigger simultaneously with the head turn. Place your finger behind your ear and do a quarter head turn. See where your finger is. That's how close he came.

The pretense by Democrats that their insane rhetoric played no role doesn't play particularly well with their desperate scramble to delete their tweets. Seriously they are scrambling for cover. Several democrats lawmakers just shut down their accounts to avoid the backlash

Martha Raddatz will forever be the lady who cried on live TV as Trump started winning the White House in November of 2016. That piece of leftist trash is a perfect definition of the MSM.

The damage has already been done to the Left…

They will be fine in the long run. The average dem voter is either too dumb to care or has no soul and doesn't care.

All Secret Service guns are hot. And they don't need permission to engage a target.

The only plausible scenario for this is simple. The Secret Service sniper could spot somebody on the roof. He knows it isn't one of his guys. He could say on the radio "does PA State have somebody on the roof?"

Trumps skirt was too short and his top was too low. With that much cleavage soaring it was inevitable.

Problem is that leaving them up provides validation for the multitudes of village idiots that agree with these tools. Not a good solution to be had IMO

I dunno if surviving gunfire would, but DEI nuts asking whether it would definitely will.

People keep asking about the ladder...but these type of buildings all have ladders attached. That's not unusual.


I pointed this out almost immediately when the ladder came into the conversation. It doesn't even look like a portable ladder, too vertical.
This is a metal building with no HVAC on the roof. That ladder was brought in, either by the shooter, or someone trying to get to the shooter.

I am going with the shooter for the simple fact, that it is behind a tree in an alleyway between 2 buildings that are connected by a hallway. this nook is obscured and the connecting hallway is not as tall as either building. So you can climb up onto the hallway and then crawl onto the connecting roof. Google Street view from Nov 2023 does not have a ladder.







Perhaps the ladder was concealed prior to the event in, or behind the tree? Either way, Secret service has no line of sight to that nook, and once on the roof, the shooter is concealed from the view of the Secret Service until they crest over the ridge.




Looking from the opposite end of the building, where the videos were taken of the dead shooter lying on the roof, you can see that the back of the building is below grade, there is a sizeable dip. So the people standing out in the grass yelling at law enforcement are elevated enough to where they can actually see onto the roof.

Just to put this out there

SS protectees are not always protected by SS counter snipers. Counter snipers may be State or local trained counter snipers and spotters. Also the two may or may not have worked or trained together.

The two on the roof may have well been PA State Police or one SS and the other state police or sheriff's department.

State and local has just as nice toys in rifle set ups

Thank goodness Trump was not assassinated.

I already thought he was going to win but their failed attempt now just might make it a landslide.

I'm delayed in watching the PC, but when the FBI decided to become an enemy of the people it's hard to want to help them.

Reporter: "Can you tell us everything you know so far? What happened?"

FBI: "Well, unfortunately, it appears that the shots missed left very slightly. We are investigating now to figure out why that happened. It's possible a gust of wind kicked up, or he could have flinched when he pulled the trigger. We just don't know details at this time, but we will do our very best to get to the bottom and make sure this does not happen again."


This press conference is expectedly worthless. They're going to Vegas shooter this thing

They won't even say the gun or the amount of shots. Won't even tell us his name even though it's out there.
There are not going to be able to get away with that in this case for very long.

Except their plate carriers said secret service so I'm guessing they were in fact USSS.

In defense of the CAT team counter sniper and his spotter. The perp looked like he was laying completely prone on the backside of the ridge and likely was hard to be absolutely a threat until he raised up to fire on Trump. If you watch the video of the CAT sniper he's attempting to engage and raises his head up for some reason, possibly to try and be certain of the level of threat. You have to keep in mind how much ROE have changed these days. Regardless if it is USSS DoD LEO, the possibility of a bad shoot can have you end up in Leavenworth for life. As soon as the CAT raises up the perp raised up and fired. In two seconds he was dead, multiple shots to the noggin.

The real problem was the Forward team and them not to have designated a USSS CAT member to be on that roof. The pre planning was the issue.

Still doesn't answer the biggest question I have in all of this…

WHY WASN'T SS ACTUALLY STATIONED ON THE ONLY HIGH POINT WITHIN 200 YARDS OF THE STAGE?

Not just watching it…STATIONED on it…

Guy had a decent spot that hid him well. In one video it looks like they are looking for him, sniper takes eye off scope to get a wider FOV, locates him, scoped back in and then snap fires at him. If that's the case I have no issue with counter snipers.

A building that close being left unsecured is a massive planning failure. That cannot be washed away.

It's pathetic. What about the comments from Biden 3 days ago to put Trump in a bullseye? What about the Dark Brandon speech? What about countless times Dems have said Trump is a traitor and a threat to democracy?

Exactly...just like the debate millions saw with their eyes and heard with their ears that Biden WAS riddled with dementia. The damage that did to the legacy media was immense and this will just add to it.

Why are there separate channels that lead to secret service telling the President to get down and cover and escort off stage? A gnat fart should lead to overprotective measures. They don't even have to shoot the shooter, they just had to tell him to get down.
