There was at least one high speed camera running when Trump took the ear round. PA humidity made the supersonic shock wave of the round somewhat visible. And that’s what shows in this pic.
We never hear the round that hits us simply because it hits before the sound catches up with the bullet. But Trump claimed he heard shots before he got hit. That would be explained by the first shots that killed the Dad and wounded two other people being fired before Trump’s bullet. But that only accounts for four shots.
The guy who was close to the shooter swears he heard five shots from him. there’s still one shot unaccounted for. Counting shouldn’t be hard since the empties should be laying on he roof. And there’s a hole in something else around where Trump was.
Then, assuming we’re seeing actual pics of the counter sniper, he was shooting something bigger than .223, which would be smart since they would want to be able to outgun the random dumbass.
As one who lives in a world of sharp things, powerful machines, and firepower of every sort, I fully expect to run out of BS flags before we get the straight story of the Trump Rally shootup?

IIRC, the Secret Service Sniper/Counter-Sniper Teams use .300 Winchester Magnum or .338 Lapua.
To be blunt, at that range not much should be left of the target’s noggin...

Foldspace, iirc but it could have been someone else, posted a photo of Trump’s jack, there was a round hole in it.
