I think the first shot hits Trump, with subsequent shots being off that original mark with rapid trigger. It makes sense that he would set his target and send as many rounds as possible.
He “sprayed and prayed” after the first shot missed.

This. SS is responsible for the overall security of an event. However they have the inner circles and the outer protection circle is done by local police forces.

Through some of the positions here yesterday someone posted that SS has been asking for more resources but DHS has denied more resources.

Did SS only have enough manpower for very inner circles and the outer circles were heavily dependent on local cops? As many here have stated, the rooftops should have been a high priority focus as well as crowd around president.

Did local cops see the shooter but assume he was SS and not react? Was there a communication failure between local and federal agents?

Moving forward SS should have more resources than they need. And to think Dems in Congress were trying to strip his SS protection after he was “fairly” convicted…….

Sad but appears the SS sniper panicked.

Then the aimed shots and rapid fire from shooter.

Then kill shot just after.

Kill shot was definitely a different gun and location. Also you can see the two together snipers are off their guns when the kill shot happens. Hell..the second sniper bails.

Yep. The entire aura from that sniper crew is “holy shite is this actually happening?”

Which is why I’m inclined to believe the entire detail was incompetent

Most likely the counter sniper team positioned to viewers right of stage took the kill shot. The sniper team in the video did not have a line of sight in the shooter. There was chopper video that showed the shooter on the roof (dead) and if you triangulate his position to that of the sniper team in video there is a tree between them.
The sniper team to right of stage would have had a clear line of sight from the chopper video.
The sniper coming off his scope was looking for the shooter and could not find him. I can promise you if he had the shooter in his sight he would not have come off his scope.

Just so folks know I wasn't being totally out of left field with the Pokemon thing. The one in the middle was the one I was thinking of, which looks like the Demolition Ranch logo:

The SS is either incompetent or was part of it. Circumstantial evidence says it is the later.

1. Shooter is spotted by citizens but not by the SS.
2. Shooter is shot almost immediately so the SS knew where he was before he shot at Trump.

Who knows. For all I know Trump was in on it too. Maybe he is the one talked about in the bible that will deceive everyone??? IDK. I do find it strange that one of Trumps kids was friends with Hillary's upside down cross wearing daughter.

I was wondering if that tree was in the way…the sniper in the pair that was on tripod very much appears to have shot first (and missed) whether he had visual or not.

By the way he reacts after pulling off scope and going back down..maybe he was told person was there and couldn’t see him and let his best guess rip.

Finally an opinion from someone who has actually shot a gun before. Everyone blaming the CS when the real issue is the building not being secured

She can't even holster her gun

Former SS Dan Bongono said he has proof that the SS director has been sandbagging requests for additional Security. By the Trump campaign.
