It is not clear yet if Trump was hit by gunfire.

Let's see, sound of shots fired, Trump grabs his bleeding ear, and is pushed to the ground. When he rises his ear is all messed up and blood om his face.

Probably just a bad pimple, we shouldnt jump to conclusions.

They just can’t bring themselves to say, “Assassination attempt fails”.

News reports suggesting, perhaps, it was broken glass or shrapnel from a shot-up TelePrompTer.

The blood on his face was there before SS shoved him down.

Even a shot, aimed at the President but slightly missing and a ricochet or debris from it, is an attempted assassination.

The sniper was outside the Secret Service bubble—outside the venue on a roof.

The problem is that witnesses outside the venue saw the perp and pointed him out to local police and SS agents who failed to act—this was going on for a couple of minutes.

At a minimum they should have notified SS inside the venue and escorted President Trump off the stage until the (potential) perp had been captured and removed from the roof.

Oh, yeah. It’s CNN.

About 1 1/2 hours ago Newsmax reported that the shooter was,or may be, a “Chinese national” but nothing further to confirm this.

From the linked story

The shooting is being investigated as an attempted assassination attempt of the former president, according to local law enforcement.

Local law enforcement probably won’t have the resources to do a complete investigation here, but I’d trust them to give honest information in their public statements.

Yup. Media playing Sgt. Schulz and downplaying the attempted assassination.

Scum. Enemies of the people.
