40. Pretty obvious IMO the SS and the kid shooter were in on it, but the kid shooter...

Jul 18

didn't know the SS was also going to take him out immediately after the shots were fired so he could never reveal the plot and who recruited him.

The SS and the others of the trump cabal in on the plot, didn't give a shit about the collateral damage...the audience members being killed or wounded. No way the SS would let that kid get that close to the stage with a clear shot line to the podium unless it was on purpose. And it should not be ignored that the SS made sure their sniper had a clear sight line to the kid shooter.

It was staged and cold blooded as hell. That's who we're dealing with in this admin.

SS ineptitude is a possbility and people died for this stunt. Snarkoleptic Jul 18 #15

So, you believe the shooting was staged, and arranged in advance by the campaign? Fiendish Thingy Jul 18 #16

He was probably asked to shoot above the crowd but he screwed up the shot. travelingthrulife Jul 18 #6

I guess that's possible. yardwork Jul 18 #12

Not to mention, only a very very tiny change in angle could have seriously killed Trump karynnj Jul 18 #76

Agreed. yardwork Jul 18 #78

Ronny Jackson publicly stated Trump had a 2cm gunshot wound, which is untrue. Snarkoleptic Jul 18 #7

Pretty obvious IMO the SS and the kid shooter were in on it, but the kid shooter... brush Jul 18 #40

The kid was probably told he would never be convicted or see prison biophile Jul 18 #58

Absolutely. Agreed. The magats will stop at nothing. As you say, the kid never had a chance as he would be dead. brush Jul 18 #60

How much investigating was done afterward? bucolic_frolic Jul 18 #5

I just posted about this inside another thread. Here are the odd happenings the new video shows: Scrivener7 Jul 18 #8

So the Trump team knew in advance that he would be shot? Fiendish Thingy Jul 18 #17

The hydraulic boom which supported the flag suddenly dropped as hydraulic fluid sprayed the crowd. John1956PA Jul 18 #14

You're just providing inconvenient facts to spoil a perfectly good conspiracy theory. Fiendish Thingy Jul 18 #18

Thank you. The least that should be able to do in follow up . . . John1956PA Jul 18 #21

See post 22. You may like it, but it's not fact. It never happened. It's just a conspiracy theory. Scrivener7 Jul 18 #25

So, you believe the shooting was staged? Fiendish Thingy Jul 18 #28

Yes. Not the whole team, but a few who needed to know. Scrivener7 Jul 18 #29

Thanks Fiendish Thingy Jul 18 #30

But you believed the boom was shot when the owner has confirmed that it wasn't. So there's that. Scrivener7 Jul 18 #31

I believe the boom wasn't deliberately lowered to put the flag in the perfect photo op. Fiendish Thingy Jul 18 #33

And you believed the boom was shot when the owner Scrivener7 Jul 18 #34

My Reply No. 57 contains the following image taken from a video showing the spray of hydraulic fluid. John1956PA Jul 18 #59

Except the boom owner says his equipment was not damaged. See post 22. Scrivener7 Jul 18 #62

The damage might have been to some other a component of the pressurized hydraulic schematic. John1956PA Jul 18 #69

Read the article linked at post 22. The guy owned the booms and the cranes. He has confirmed his equipment Scrivener7 Jul 18 #71

I am talking about the green tractor. John1956PA Jul 18 #73

OK, but the guy who owned the cranes and booms for the flags said his equipment wasn't damaged. Scrivener7 Jul 18 #75

No. 1: The guy is a MAGA who said he would loan the equipment all over again. I do not trust what MAGAs say. John1956PA Jul 18 #77

LOL! Yes, no doubt the green tractor was powering something. Just not the flags. BECAUSE the owner Scrivener7 Jul 18 #79

I am curious, what is the difference between a boom and a crane? I do not know, and I would like to learn. John1956PA Jul 18 #80

Do you believe Trump knew? Fiendish Thingy Jul 18 #32

Yes. Scrivener7 Jul 18 #37

So, Susie Wiles and Chris Civitta (sp?) knew for sure? Nt Fiendish Thingy Jul 18 #35

I don't know who knew. I know that a 22 year old maga nursing home orderly outmaneuvered the Secret Service Scrivener7 Jul 18 #36

You're making good points. The only thing I don't agree on is that the shooter our maneuvered the SS. brush Jul 18 #45

I agree with you, and I think the fact the kid was maga supports you. But the person I was responding to is Scrivener7 Jul 18 #46

We're on the same page. brush Jul 18 #48

See post 22. The vehicle that was shot wasn't the crane holding the flag. Scrivener7 Jul 18 #51

As I have suggested in other posts on this thread, the green tractor might have taken the hit by the projectile. John1956PA Jul 18 #63

I have always been puzzled as to why the flag was lowered over the scene. Maybe someone riversedge Jul 18 #53
