How likely is it that the FIB orchestrated the attempt?
Looking more likely every day.
State Counter-Snipers had the roof covered from a window adjacent to the shooter. (An easy shot to Crooks’ position).
It appears the rifle was momentarily abandoned to answer a legitimate call to go downstairs and open a pass-key door.
(The “Swiss-Cheese” Theory at work—not that I’m convinced).
REfusing both drones and communications devices that would allow locals and feds to communicate with each other is a sure sign that this was an inside job. Either one of those things would have protected Trump because he would not have been at the podium when there were guns aimed at him.
It very much looks like Crooks was a decoy to keep anybody from seeing the sniper in the tree who fired shots purposely made too slow to be heard. There is video of one such bullet flying past Trump’s suitcoat. Because they go more slowly, it gave time for the 12mph wind that day to veer the bullet slightly off-course. In this case, just enough that it missed Trump’s vital organs.
But their failure to stop even Crooks, who could just as well have been carrying a neon sign saying, “I’m going to shoot Trump”, shows up how the “security” made deliberate choices that everybody knew would render real security non-existent while still allowing the show to go on. IOW, it was clearly a set-up.
Anybody involved who is not whistleblowing at this point should land in Gitmo. Including those at the top. ESPECIALLY those at the top.
I rate that as "unlikely".
The FBI is in charge of the cover-up.
