Someone was helping him.

Seems unlikely that this basket case would be able to build his bomb and detonator (without looking on the web), recon the site, and roll up with an AR and a freaking ladder and get in position all by his lonesome.

But not buying the Iranian connection, myself.

Yeah, we witnessed their deliberate lack of competence in the Butler County Trump Rally assassination.

Impeach Mayorkas and Biden!

The Biden administration might think this information helps them. In reality, it shows how much they disregarded the Trump's safety. Consider that that they were supposedly on an elevated alert, and yet, they were this negligent when a genuine threat appeared. Sure, they were not facilitating an Iranian assassination attempt, but they didn't seem to be doing much to thwart one.

Then, this moron of a kid showed up and revealed the serious holes in the Secret Service security. Sadly, we lost what appears to be a very solid husband, father and neighbor as a result. It could have been far worse.

Oh, I see. Joe’s people are establishing this whole “Iran” thing so if anything (God forbid!) happens to Trump, they can cry, “It wasn’t us! It was the Iranians!”

uh, this makes it worse! If you had heightened awareness the Iranians were going to assassinate Trump how the hell do you they let a 20 yr get on an elevated building with line of site to Trump? I’m not buying it. Thank god it was this kid and not a real sniper!

I categorically reject the negligence argument.

The Secret Service has many issues for sure—but I believe they are being set up as the patsy here.

My view is that their comms were jammed by other Deep State actors and a couple of moles in the Secret Service (who actually worked for FBI or CIA or whoever) plotted to assassinate President Trump.

Keeping investigators focused on the idiotic Secret Service leadership and policies will help protect the guilty.

LOL! I have the theme music from “Dudley Do Right” as the ringtone for my husband. When it goes off in Walmart, people crack up.

Nations hostile to, and competitive with, The United States have learned to attack the weakest point of our country.

They have been doing it for decades.

They attack the weak minded through the Democrat party.

If that be true, shouldn’t Secret Service protection have been maximized?

.... OK ... Tin foil hat firmly planted on my head ....... I am beginning to wonder if Crooks was meant to be a patsy to be painted as some kind of Iranian Sympathizer Operative.

..... Is it possible that since Trump survived the attack that the incriminating social media accounts that were meant to be planted, painting Crooks as an Iranian Sympathizer were necessarily scrubbed and thus the lack of Social Media presence??

... Heck ..... All that is remaining about this turd is his measly voter registration and a few bucks donated to crappy causes .... He's basically a blank page waiting to be written and fleshed out

Load of cr*p. The liars are now going “Iran. Iran. Iran.” just like they did “Russia. Russia. Russia.”

Yep. Be sure to let them know that you know so that they can go back to planning.

Just proves that a lot of people hate Trump. Some within the United States, some outside.

I am worried for him, the United States, and the world if they are successful.
