Without reading everything, this being called textbook in any capacity is horrifying. If so, the potential for copycat events will be significant.

Former president and current republican presumptive nominee shot in the head, other people dead and critically injured, and his friend says textbook. Someone needs new textbooks!

Missed by less than a half inch while Trump had a moving head target.



Wasn't even a 1/2 inch. If Trump looks a little more to his left his head would have exploded. It wasn't a "bad" miss at all.

Yes and you responded maybe he couldn’t see him. The “once he saw a guy with a rifle” is the kicker here


Okay. So what are we arguing here. Maybe he never saw the guy. Maybe he saw him and though he was local PD. Maybe he did think he was a bad guy and just fricked up and actually did come off the rifle.

On the other hand, Dan Bongino who worked for the USSS said it was an apocalyptic failure and just because they were lucky Trump survived, doesn't mean they did the job. No one should be taking a victory lap here.


This. If anything it exposes weaknesses and holes in the security and could embolden others to try. They better clean that shite up ASAP

It wasn't a "miss" miss, Trump moved out of the way by turning his head ever so slightly.

Ha. I was wondering how long before someone claimed a “second shooter”! Now we need a “magic bullet”.

So I imagine this officer came down the ladder and transmitted what he saw on the radio, which then had to be relayed to the SS


Which should have immediately caused SS to crash on to Trump and get him covered immediately. It seems pretty clear SS was alerted to his presence. It is criminal that they did not get Trump covered until the threat was neutralized.

Whoever was in charge of communications fricked up bigly.

There is no excuse for leaving a rooftop unsecured that is close enough to the stage that I could realistically hit a human sized target with my compound bow

NOLA PD is not that great a resume. That was total incompetence, or worse, deliberate. Find new friends.

Right up to the point a bullet grazed President Trump’s right ear.

Yeah. Textbook.

Because I said he wouldn’t come off of his scope AFTER HE HAD SEEN THE SHOOTER through said scope. You responded “maybe he didn’t see him”
