The jabber about the ballistic capabilities of 22LR is just ridiculous talking-out-the-azz.

But to be fair, this is a shocking event, and some folks just process differently.

Annoying and weird, but forgivable.

135 yards and he missed. Not a pro.

If that is a bullet, it is flying AWAY from Trump's right ear.

The shooter was on Trump's right.

I think the biggest question here is How long did the Secret Service have this guy in their sights before firing at him ?
Watching the video as it happened you hear what seems like Five shots which is what the redheaded witness said, then three shots a second later, I assume those three shots killed the shooter. If that second group of three shots killed the shooter he had to have been in their sights already, it was an instant response without the time required to acquire a target. If that’s correct the Secret Service waited for him to shoot first! Allowing him to make his attempt.

He did not move his head just before the bullet hit. The guy just missed!

If they do that I believe a spark will have been ignited. If I were twenty years younger…

Go to the front page of the NYTimes right now and there is absolutely no mention that Trump was shot.

Luckily, the deceased shooter was not a practiced shooter. 150 yd shot with a .22 rifle is really not hard. just adjust for the drop and fire away.

I suspect his heart was revving, making the hold jiggle per beat.

Praise God that the president was spared. RIP for the murder victim. Ashli Babbit redux. Unlike the sick bastard Byrd, this monster was neutralized.

How did they get a tripod setup to take out the shooter so fast? This was all set up to take out the shooter after he assassinated Trump.

Only problem is God was watching over Trump

That was the subject of a recent novel. Can’t recall if author was Steve Berry or David Baldacci.

They enlisted a Chinese man who was most likely terminally ill, his family will be set for life.

Wrong! I watched it several times and from the time the shooter would have pulled the trigger to when it struck Trump’s head hardly moved at all.

Not that he was actually shot. The MSM is truly evil.


CBS News first reported that the Secret Service interrupted Trump rally. Watched for several minutes and they had no report of shots fired.

“ YOU try that shot...and see how close YOU come with a cold barrel.”
Cold shot, no flyers, I’m within an inch. 200 yards probably closer to an inch due to eyesight, old age.
6.5 creedmoor and I’m going to be within a 1/2” mos at 300 yards. Much better scope on that one.

Only by the Grace of God did DJT escape death. Praying for our President, his family, and the fatality and injuries of others in the crowd. God please continue to protect this great man and his family.

Agree, given that both his father and his uncle were shot and killed, it is absolutely criminal Biden didn’t give him Secret Service protection. Biden is evil.
