If true what's the problem? The Sigforum security experts think Trump getting shot is acceptable. God forbid if the VIP they are supposed to protect gets shot. Shit happens, amirite?

40 yards, right? 40 feet sounds a little close.

Apparently CBS contacted some unnamed person in the Trump campaign for reaction after the shooting. A female CBS talking head stated that the person stated something to the effect that first, they tried to take him off the ballot, next they tried to put him in jail and now this.

Quite unbelievably, the talking head then went on a rant about how irresponsible and incendiary it was to make such statements and especially when "they" were not identified. Nothing about the dead spectator or the other person who was apparently critically injured.

These reporters are totally tone-deaf.

Yes, with all violent rhetoric from the Dems, this was something I feared could be a possibility and now it has happened.

Good God. I have so many feelings right now but the two big ones seem to be anger and relief.

How is that possible?

Anyone got eyes on the rooftops? Damn.

In one of those videos I hear the voice of a female secret service agent saying repeatedly “what are we doing? What are we doing?”

My first thought is Your Job. What does your training tell you to do?

He said 40'. He said ppl started cheering when they saw the shooter go down.

More likely 40yards but just repeating what he said

Complains the people who call this a security incident instead of a shooting or assassination attempt.

Yea, CBS can go pound fucking sand.

In this day and age of drone surveillance, how can presidential shooters hide on a rooftop?

Funny how he makes a statement like this when for the last 7 years he and the Democratic party have pushed the message of "Stop Trump at all costs" They've been gaslighting the country that Trump is evil, a felon, a dictator, a racist. What do you expect would happen????

Any surprise the Biden campaign is pulling ALL TV ads?

Maybe he meant 40 feet away from him, not the stage. And he was far from the stage. Anyway no biggie.

In the spirit of never let a crisis go to waste, the Democrats now have an excuse to hide Joe and allow him to campaign from his basement again.

Three law enforcement sources confirm the shooter was outside the venue at former President Donald Trump’s rally in Pennsylvania.

Two of those sources say the shooter was on a roof, outside of the venue. Multiple law enforcement sources have referred to this individual as a sniper, although additional details about that are not clear.

Butler County District Attorney Richard Goldinger said he was told by his chief detective that the shooter was on a building adjacent to the property and had no additional details on the person.

“It would have required a rifle,” he said. “It was several hundred yards.”
