Unanswered Questions About the Trump Assassination Attempt
American Thinker ^ | July 16, 2024 | Kenneth R. Timmerman

Posted on 07/16/2024 6:50:00 PM PDT by E. Pluribus Unum

Donald J. Trump didn’t have to run for president in 2015, or in 2020, or in 2024. He had a magnificent life. Why subject himself to the barbs and arrows of a political class and their media allies well-versed in the politics of personal destruction?

Only one reason: because he loved his country to the extent he was willing to sacrifice his wealth, livelihood and even his life to serve it.

Donald Trump is the only president to have left the White House poorer than when he took office.

I believe God himself protected Donald Trump on Saturday. Just a few millimeters in either direction, and the many bullets his would-be assassin fired at him would have blown his brains out.

I believe that God sends His guardian angels to protect those He chooses. Don’t ask me why or how He chooses whom to protect. But in my own life, I know I have been saved in so many times of great peril by a higher force, certainly not by my own hand. I have recounted some of those “close calls” in my book, And the Rest is History. After a while, saying you have been lucky is just not enough.

God extended a hedge of protection around Donald Trump. He saved him from a would-be assassin’s bullets for a purpose – His purpose. And that purpose can only be to turn His people back to Him.

How did authorities know which rooftop to leave open for Crooks?

Everything about a presidential visit...even for former presidents...is planned out carefully before the visit.

They knew where Trump was arriving from, the route he took the venue, the entrance used to the venue, where he stood within the venue, the egress used from the venue, and several escape route, a route to medical care, and a planned route from the venue to a plane.

All of this is planned and known before a visit, for any reason, goes past a tentative plan.

There is no way they DID NOT know which rooftop to leave open.

I’ve got a question:
Why doesn’t that cadaver on the roof look anything like the young Crooks lad?

If you ask questions like that you might get sued for 1.5 billion dollars.

The precedent has been set.

I and my four friends were saved by the hand of God, much like President Trump was on Saturday night.
Stuffed inside my Toyota Supra.
Downtown Boston at night, Light turned green....God told me to wait a bit.
We All would have died...

Why would a 20 year old with no military experience think he could walk into a supposedly high security area with a rifle and a ladder and climb to the roof of a building and not get arrested? Just because that’s what happened doesn’t change the fact it was an insane plan—unless he had inside help.

That's about enough!
Everybody's yelling about how incompetent and clueless the head of the SS is but what the hell do you want?
Yeah, yeah, somebody got on a roof and somebody else got shot...but come on.
Since the attack, and up through today, I have not heard of a single instance of ANYONE throughout the entire SS detail being misgendered or being subjected to improper pronoun usage.
That chit doesn't "just happen". That sort of professionalism requires leadership.
Time to give a little credit where credit is due!

How did he know that rooftop would be unguarded?

Of course I’m not comparing God saving us nobody’s to possibly saving the United States of America...

These are all excellent questions. I have a few of my own:

- Did Crooks' parents identify the body of his son? Have they even seen the body?
- How did Crooks get access to explosives and bomb-making materials? That alone rules out the "lone wolf" theory.
- How did a 20-year-old with no important employment history and no criminal record have DNA on record? Most Americans, of all ages, do not have their DNA readily available for FBI access.
- Who drove the white van to the site? Crooks didn't drive both his Hyundai and the white van 45 miles to the rally. This implies an accomplice, and therefore, a conspiracy.
- Why has information about the white van, once available on search engines, been scrubbed from the internet?
- Why does the dead body on the roof not resemble Crooks, the suspect?
- Where is Yearick, and why has nobody been able to contact him since the shooting?

It’s beginning to look like an inside job. Expect another attempt.
