Shots Fired At Trump Rally

Donald Trump on Surviving Assassination Attempt: ‘That Was from God’​

Former President Donald Trump spoke about the assassination attempt on his life at his rally in Butler, Pennsylvania, and credited God for his survival.

“The first one was not a good situation, not a good situation,” Trump added. “That was really something incredible. That was from God. That was from God. Because the chances….that was from God. For all of you non-believers, that one was from God, right?”

During Trump’s rally in Butler, Crooks opened fire from the rooftop of a nearby building where he had a direct line of sight of the former president.

Trump was shot by “a bullet that pierced the upper part” of his right ear.


I love it when a person recognizes God in something that occurred. I hope Trump is saved. He'd be fun to have in heaven.
 
Trump's knife's edge assassination attempt fell by the wayside far too soon. But I'm so glad the world is talking about how "brat" Kalama is. Nobody wanted to vote her in to anything five minutes ago, and now she's exalted as savior of the republic. Joe...has anyone checked on Joe? Is he still an entity? Somebody go check on Joe.

Butler was the first Trump rally carried live by CNN this year.

The plan was for Trump's head to blow up on live TV. That’s what they wanted.

Then the SS snipers were to take out the patsy so he could never talk.

They came sooooo close....

May I conclude: But God!

USSS Did Not Fire First Shot at Crooks, Preliminary Investigative Report Finds​

The Secret Service counter sniper who neutralized Thomas Matthew Crooks on July 13 did not fire the first shot against the would-be assassin. According to a preliminary investigative report from Rep. Clay Higgins (R-LA), a local SWAT operator first “stopped Crooks” and damaged his firearm.

The 9th shot fired on J13 was from a Butler SWAT operator from the ground about 100 yards away from the AGR building. Shot 9 hit Crooks’ rifle stock and fragged his face/neck/right shoulder area from the stock breaking up. The SWAT operator who took this shot was a total badass; when he had sighted the shooter Crooks as a mostly obscured by foliage moving target on the AGR rooftop, he immediately left his assigned post and ran towards the threat, running to a clear shot position directly into the line of fire while Crooks was firing 8 rounds. On his own, this ESU SWAT operator took a very hard shot, one shot. He stopped Crooks and importantly, I believe the shot damaged the buffer tube on Crooks’ AR. I won’t be certain of this until I can examine Crooks’ rifle, but I’m 99% sure, based upon reliable eye-witness ESU tactical officers who observed Crooks’ rifle before the FBI harvested it as evidence. This means that if his AR buffer tube was damaged, Crooks’ rifle wouldn’t fire after his 8th shot.

Crooks “went down” from his firing position when shot 9 was fired, and the SWAT officer was certain of his hit. According to the ESU SWAT operator, Crooks recovered after just a few seconds, and “popped back up”.


Our highly trained secret service allowed the perp to fire 8 shots and still hadn't attempted to neutralize the shooter. Pretty amazing...
