Trump Assassination Attempt(s)

[Orangeburst]

Ive never seen such two dramatic political earthquakes as such in my life. We haven't even seen the sentencing aspect. The narratives going forward are unreal.

 

[Carl Pickens]

Trump specifically said he felt a bullet.

You don’t even know what you had for breakfast this morning and you’re nitpicking Trump’s comments after almost being shot in the head….. you’re worse than Luther

 

[NorthDallas40]

I have cracked open several bottles in celebration of Tennessee winning the CWS 3 weeks ago. If you're referring to celebrating what happened to Trump .... then you are the one being a clown.

Oh I’ll stand pat. Watching you skirt around your dumbassery like you’re just being Joe Friday is on full display for every one to see clown boi

For the locals who think you can buy assault rifles at Wal-Mart and that AR-15s shoot 800-1000 rpm:

One of my local ranges has a 1000y setup. And, with the right gun and a little practice, it's not that difficult to hit a target. That's roughly 8x further than this building. At 100y, I can put shots in a 3" circle on a bad day from a fixed position.

I'm confused by quite a bit that went on there, the counter sniper team appeared to be engaged with him. There is no way they can allow a guy to be up there that long and that freaking close.

This was very avoidable.

If there was any sort of aerial surveillance he may have been killed before even firing a round

 

[BigOrangeMojo]

Why hasnt Mayorkas and Cheatle been fired yet?

 

[LSU-SIU]

The counter sniper team knew he was there, the question is.... were they waiting on the call. And whether someone wanted to blast him or not, Trump should have been taken off stage.

Very avoidable.

They knew he was there, but again, did the sniper not see the rifle.... was he waiting on the call?????

Either way one of Trump's nine lives has been used up....

No proof they knew he was there.

From a prone sniper position my old ass eyes and unsteady hands could keyhole round after round out to 200 yds with my old Remington 223 AR equipped with long optics that I tragically lost in a freak boating accident.

 

[LSU-SIU]

The counter sniper team looked like they had him, they moved very little that I could see.

To late to tell tonight but I have a story about someone that almost got shot at LSU (where I worked as a student) by SS over VP candidate Quayle. True story.

Such Rifle accuracy with one hand is pretty spectacular.

 

[InVOLuntary]

Me thinks this will be a huge push for Trump.

I bought the router after the freak boating accident. Plus… prone sniper position

 

[volfanhill]

Disagree. He was looking through his optics. Something caught his eye. He reacted. Assassin fired. He reacted again and moved back. Then fired his weapon. We don't know what he was looking at. And if it was shady what he wouldn't have acted surprised. He clearly acted surprised

 

[85SugarVol]

Yeah .... and as others have said, it's not that important, anyway.

It is of zero importance. But keep waving your flag.

I didn't have any of my ARs that I lost on the river set up for that distance, but easily true. I only had long glass on my big guns that also suffered a similar fate.

Between the router accident and the boating accident..thats a lot of accidents. You need to talk to your insurance agents.

 

[BreatheUT]

You do realize it could have, easily in fact, been glass that struck Trump and it be neither a lie or embellishment? Do you doubt he was struck by something as a result of a would be assassin's bullet? If you accept that as true why would a person in that position not assume it was in fact a bullet?

AT WORST Trump may have mistaken a secondary impact for a primary impact even if the glass theory is correct. Your fascination with that narrative is bewildering.

A person would have to be disturbed to continue that line of thinking.

 

[LSU-SIU]

Disagree. He was looking through his optics. Something caught his eye. He reacted. Assassin fired. He reacted again and moved back. Then fired his weapon. We don't know what he was looking at. And if it was shady what he wouldn't have acted surprised. He clearly acted surprised

If you don't have the target that takes time, but we'll have to see.... just my two cents. I could be wrong on that. Very quick either way, if he was able to get him that fast.

Nah. There isnt this mass group of undecideds. It's why he trails in some poll now.

As is your intellect of an 8 year old on a playground.

 

[kiddiedoc]

Any idea what the counter team uses? 50, Lapua, 6.5 Creed, 300 WM?

 

[theFallGuy]

 

[BigOrangeMojo]

I'll let @kiddiedoc opine but a piece of glass scrapnel 3 inches lower could have severed the carotid and killed him....

 

[Orangeburst]

wth..not sure what to make of that. When was that posted?
