Trump Shooter used Gaming Site that features Presidential Assassination Game​


Trump shooter Thomas Crooks posted an ominous comment that appeared to foreshadow his attack on the former president on the gaming platform Steam – which features an assassination game.

Crooks, 20, wrote in a post earlier this month, "July 13 will be my premiere, watch as it unfolds."

The chilling details were disclosed late Wednesday to senators in an all-member briefing.

The game's protagonist, Dick "Rock-Hard" Johnson – "the best bodyguard money can buy" – is sworn to protect "the most hated presidential candidate of all time Ronald Rump," the game's description reads.

This is at best a nothing burger and at worst a distraction. Really? A video game?

In this time of social media I'm legitimately amazed people are surprised when they excited their views publicly that they would receive pushback and criticism.

I mean there's been example after example..... And each side champions their own when they do the cancelling. People need to cook with the rhetoric, when you hit send button consider yourself published.

Thanks for all of that. Will be interesting to see if any of it changes over time, but it all fits with what those who knew the shooter are suggesting, which is that this was an effort to gain some attention and notoriety and Trump had the misfortune of doing a rally close to where the shooter lived.

What I can’t figure with these kids is there are so many ways to accomplish this and be able to live to see it . He had to have know there was zero chance of having an exit strategy after he pulls the trigger being on that roof . It’s almost a guarantee that it will be death by cop.

Tbh, I’m not sure I’ve seen this widespread a “cancellation” campaign targeting random everyday individuals for harmless jokes until now. Extremely sensitive busybody behavior

Someday, when you’re scrolling social media, watch the ads for about any mobile game.

The ads involve the game being played with obvious strategic mistakes because somebody figured out that that drives more engagement.

I think what you’re referring to is the politics version of engineered engagement. Put out an obviously dumb conspiracy theory and people pointing out how stupid it is drives it up the algorithm and gets it in front of more people who want to believe it, growing your audience.

Any comments , any shares , watching the whole video is money . It’s based on the “ there’s no such thing as bad publicity “ they just have to skirt the community guidelines.

My two cents is the females did fine. I mean they weren't as aggressive or as fast to get up there, but you know what.... they did their part. The end looked a little cops and robbers but that's okay.

To be honest, they did a hell of a lot better than whoever was running the operation. The least of the issues are the females that showed up on camera.

A different perspective is that this statement violates the terms of the contract to which she voluntarily agreed when she took the job.

Minors are disciplined, suspended, and forfeit scholarships for saying far less, including making innocent remarks with no ill intentions. Those of us in the teaching profession know that we can be held accountable for making remarks that offend community standards. Actions have consequences.

I think it's time for them to tell us who was shooting and where from. Personally, I think there were 3 shooters total: the assassin, a 2nd AR from someone else, and the counter sniper. I think the 2nd two were aimed at the ass. Unless they've already told us and I've been under a rock, in that case, disregard post.

Federal officers on Thursday visited Crooks's former classmate Vincent Taormina, 20, to quiz him about the shooter's 'hatred' of politicians and the threats he made as a freshman at Bethel Park High School.
