I dont know all the facts and I really didnt watch the coverage of the shooting but
this incident just doesnt pass my smell test.
Did Trump really say something like the show must go on?
And how many shootings has been involved in?

(4,039 posts)White House Pres Secretary Leavitt said ". . . shots will be fired." Was she saying Trump will fire verbal shots, or, was she saying . . . .
In his press conference, he started out by praising Secret Service,, US Capitol Police, DC Police. Praised the SS agent who was shot. Then he started in on the ballroom where the event was held -- "it is not secure" -- but ". . . my ballroom that everyone for 150 years has said we need will be secure . . . bulletproof glass . . . very secure . . . . we really need it . . . "
Gunman somehow gets pistol, shotgun, and knives into the building.
Trump did not attend the event during his first term.
Judge recently ruled Trump's ballroom for not be built for "non-security reasons."

Maybe he was unstable and wanted to commit suicide by cop?
How did he get a shotgun inside the building?

(77,627 posts)I might be wrong but it just doesnt pass my smell test. Look how brave President Trump is
and how is working to protect America but to do so he needs his ballroom completed for
his security because it will have bullet proof glass.
