And just like that, this is a non-story. This is why you wait until you get the facts from someone other a campaign that isn't known for being all that factual.


Show us where on the doll the media told you orange man touched you.

USSS fired at a target 400-500 yards away? With their sidearms?

Well, I guess that's better than waiting for the assassin to shoot first. The SS stepping up their game.

Putting these two things together. (The Trump news today and the ABC Whistleblower)

I didn't hear if the suspect fired any shots at or in Trump's direction, but with the whistleblower news coming out, maybe this person was just used to create a news story and create a diversion?

He was spotted by a team ahead of Trump's party. Sounds like 200 yards away, still pretty far for handguns but we don't what they had but maybe that is why they missed.

Hard to believe one of them wasn't carrying a sbr.

Hard to believe one of them wasn't carrying a sbr.
SBR's dont have that as an effective range.

Its mostly 50-100 yards.

200 yards is pushing it.

SS agent was scouting out 1 hole ahead of Trump and saw the rifle barrel and engaged the shooter. shooter fled, and a random bystander got his license plate number as he fled, and gave it to police. Suspect was tracked by license plate scanners.

Please! A 11.5 to 14.5" 5.56 AR SBR is good out to 500 all day with an optic.

You need to go to the range more.

I think we can all agree its time for an Assault Weapons Ban.

We'll call it the "Donald Trump Assassination Prevention Act".....

I'm sure everyone here will be onboard.
Yeah no. But I do want to see a photo of this "scoped" AK. Such an odd choice.

That poster doesn't know what an AK or an assault rifle is.

Absolutely. Add in "muzzle sticking thru chain link fence" and it screams not a pro. Was the shooter planning on him being inside 100 yards?

Looks to me like the guy was using the 'backpacks' with tiles to use as protection from return fire when he was shooting at Trump. I figure he wasn't expecting the advance team checking out holes ahead of Trump.

This is like watching a livestream of guesswork. Now all the weapons experts have shown up trying to kill moving targets at 500 yards with SBR.

The comments are more entertaining than the news!

So who knew Trump was playing golf today?

Was it public knowledge?

I wish there was a way to disarm democrats. We'd instantly become one of the safest countries in the world. By far the safest places I have ever been to are rural and suburban areas with few democrats and LOTS of guns.

If you are referring to me. I think I would be considered an expert when it comes to personal protection details and weapon selection.

One fact is that SS agent has weak ass shooting skills.

Interesting how "sure" some liberals were about the details before anyone knew a thing
